Add Matt Damon to the "starring" section on the right above Michael Caine's name. Lesuthsu (talk) 08:50, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: As per the hidden note (viewable in full if you click View Source and scroll through the wikitext), the cast list is "per billing block [and] the billing block is the list of names at the bottom portion of the poster". Paper9oll (🔔📝) 14:34, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Under the plot section, in paragraph 3, in the second last sentence is the following text:

"They return to the Endurance after only one hour in their perspective, yet 23 years have passed due to the time dilation caused by Gargantua's gravity."

This is incorrect. Gargantua's time dilation is 7 Earth years per hour on Gargantua. 23 years have passed in Earth time, but just over three hours have passed from their perspective (time on Gargantua = 23 Earth years * 1 Gargantua hour / 7 Earth years == 3.28 Gargantua hours).

Therefore, the corrected text should be: "They return to the Endurance after just over three hours in their perspective, yet 23 years have passed due to the time dilation caused by Gargantua's gravity." Lbilbie (talk) 03:05, 2 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"One of the best sci-fi movies ever made" was removed.

[edit]

Main reasoning was behind "cult following" but conclusion about "one of the best sci-fi ever made" should back. That's true and here are some references to that.

The above is very unclear to me. Please try to explain your point in simple English. HiLo48 (talk) 01:57, 21 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Interstellar is a movie that regularly appears on "best sci-fi movies of all time" and not on 20th or 30th places, but in top 10, 5, or even 3.
Few months ago it was acknowledged in the text, but was removed due to the mistake of "cult following". 109.173.222.27 (talk) 10:37, 21 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Per MOS:ACCLAIMED, please provide multiple reliable sources that support that claim. InfiniteNexus (talk) 17:32, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hello.
Multiple sources of that.
Please, correct that and return "considered to be one of the best sci-fi movies ever made

Can we modify the "The film received critical acclaim and grossed..." to something like this "The film received acclaim from critics, who praised multiple aspects including cast performances, directing, cinematography and its score."? This would be a fair substitute with multiple sources supporting this. WikiWanderer261 (talk) 13:06, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi you should be able to I guess. 156.57.86.117 (talk) 07:24, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
None of those sources say that. They are all opinion pieces not critical reception sources Fxespawn (talk) 17:58, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
