1. Interstellar and throughly enjoyed it. Giggled endlessly at the wonderfully kerbal spin-docking, and sighed exasperatedly at the magical SSTOs with near infinite fuel (except when the plot required otherwise) and an ascent profile of “well, uh, we take off… and go up… and we’re in space now. YAY!”.

    Also: props to Hans Zimmer for the best use of a pipe organ in a film score I’ve heard for a long time. Caught me by surprise!

  2. Is it a hallmark of Ghibli films that I don't remember the actual storyline, just small, nonsensical plot details — I.E. exactly the opposite of how remembering is supposed to work?
