Interstellar Pitch Meeting

Step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to Interstellar!

Christopher Nolan has made a name for himself making intellectual mind-bendy movies with films like Memento, Inception and Tenet. Let’s just say it, the dude is a little obsessed with time. He’s one of the few filmmakers making truly “epic” movies, and it’s really cool when you can understand them.

Interstellar definitely raises some questions though. Like why doesn’t anyone seem to care about Tom? Why did they decide to go down to that time dilation planet first? Why did they try to collect that worthless data? Why was there a Matt Damon jumpscare on the second planet? Why did Tom name his kid Coop Cooper? Why did Cooper send the same “stay” message that he knew did not get him to stay?

To answer all these questions, check out the pitch meeting that led to Interstellar!

I mean Bryan did a good job but I can only imagine how good Ryan’s take on this pitch meeting would’ve been

[Taxi-cab-to-Slowtown]

I haven’t seen this movie in a couple years and when he said “he has 2 kids” I was like “no he doesn’t, he only has a daughter” which, like, shows how much favouritism Murph was given

[anonymousduh]

His poor son. He came back and didn't even ask anything about him....

[WiiMan]

I was VERY aware of the disproportionate degree of love he had for his kids. It was so blatant it was unintentionally hilarious

[aaroneclipse]

"So Cooper has all these video messages from Tom"
"Worthless"
I died laughing from this, it's exactly how the film feels about Tom in comparison to Murph.

It's nice to see Ryan trust Bryan to fill in for him with something as big as Pitch meetings.
I'm used to just seeing him on Ryan's channel as an extra or background character.

"You're oddly specific." It's a testament to Ryan's acting skill that I understand his reviews more than the actual movie or show!

[allo]

“See, I can write whatever I want here so she just kind of pieces it together out of thin air” is a god-tier joke

[markjansen]

I like how he fit in "alright, alright, alright" at the very beginning after mentioning McConaughey. Well done!

[edwardp]

Ryan is seriously on another level with these. He nails it EVERY TIME. I literally have not seen a single bad pitch meeting.

[LlamaDuck]

Good guy Ryan – he liked this movie so much, he waited literal years to make sure everyone would have seen it and not get spoilers from this.

[David-gwvg]

"We have the same face"...."Yeah, but Im wearing glasses" I love these Pitch Meetings. Can't get enough of them!

[theonebman]

Gotta say, the new guy does the roles pretty well tbh
I almost didn't notice Ryan was missing

[ahmedfouzan]

I didn't even realise Ryan wasn't in this pitch meeting. Great job Bryan 👍.

[drinkmorecareless]

Bryan did a fantastic job. It’s uncanny how well he imitated Ryan.

[iotasharma]

"Life on earth sucks."
"Sure, but what happens in the movie though?"

That's why I love the openings of the pitch meetings😂

[ceilinh]

I always find it hilarious when actors end up in multiple movies with the same very specific genre. This pitch meeting covers two instances of that phenomenon, therefore, it is perfect.

One thing that really got me about Interstellar is how the Secret Nasa people just happened to be based right down the road from him out in the middle of nowhere and when he showed up unexpectedly, they were like, "Oh yeah, we were going to go on this secret mission to another planet in like 3 days and being a space exploration agency, we typically train our astronauts for months if not years for the mission and precisely calculate the exact amount of fuel needed to complete the mission, but anyway if you want to just tag along or whatever maybe you can go home for the weekend and spontaneously let your kids know that you'll never see them again while we very quickly alter the entire mission to add you."

Also another headscratcher was when all the plant life on the planet was just spontaneously dying, but everyone is like "Oh yeah, we're all about 5 years away from starving to death globally, but there's absolutely no market for jobs like scientists who might, you know, be able to develop new food sources or maybe figure out what is causing all the plants to die and maybe try to reverse it. Scientists are so useless. What we need is more untrained farmers who can cultivate endless fields for the, uh, dying plants. Oh, and also when I say we really need more farmers I mean, it's gotta be absolutely every single person. Everyone must get an education in farming. Ignore the fact that most farming is automated now, and we actually see a bunch of tractors that are self-driving drones... we totally need absolutely every single available hand helping with the farming that is done almost entirely by robots."

“Let’s make Matthew McConaughey an astronaut”
“Alright!”
“Alright?”
“Alright.”

Just perfect! So amazing 😂

This is probably my favourite pitch meeting and I've seen them all! "That's the good child, that's the Becky" I almost choked on my snack
