It’s a movie made for space nerds, and if you aren’t a space nerd I can understand not enjoying it. Part of what made it so amazing is just the black hole simulation, no one had ever rendered one that accurately with such high fidelity.

I mean, if they’re going to do it either way I’d rather a spy agency have this attitude than not. Silver linings and all that.

And before you smash those reactionary fingers on the screen/keyboard, I should be clear that Ed Snowden is a national hero and the NSA should, in an idealistic sense, be abolished. Will it? No.
