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.
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]
Based on the map at 21:59 it matches with topographical map at 40°54'26.3"N 105°48'46.3"W. The name of Bull Mountain is visible on the map, and several other features of the map match this location. Noodleclaus (talk) 22:23, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Added a section to reception about how the film has garnered a more broadly positive reception over time, especially compared to how it was first recieved with a "-B" CinemaScore and 73% on Rotten Tomatoes, along with multiple Oscars snubs. I do believe that this reappraisal has happened, yet the only evidence I could find was a Reddit discussion post and how the film has climbed up the rankings of the highest rated films of all time on Letterboxd and IMDb. If anyone would like to make suggestions or changes, I'd love to hear them/see them implemented, as I do feel like the general public's perception of Interstellar has shifted over the years to being more overwhelmingly positive, and the article should be updated to reflect this.

You need to find better sources to back this up. The first ref was a general article about the re-release and the second was...y'know...Reddit. Barry Wom (talk) 09:42, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I know the sources are insufficient, and am asking you all for help finding some. Feel free to take down the section if it isn't well-sourced, but I'd just like to know everyone else's thoughts on this. Mellomelo (talk) 09:44, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Seems dubious, audience response is difficult to evaluate as we have so few reliable sources. I question the use of WP:UGC user voted web polls such as IMDB and Letterboxd. The opening weekend audiences polled by Cinemascore might have been disappointed as they didn't necessarily know what to expect, but I don't read too much into it. I'm not sure this really shows a change over time, I though the film was pretty well received, based on the box office and many awards. Proceed with caution. (I haven't looked at the other references provided yet, maybe they're good, use them more instead if you can.) -- 109.76.130.148 (talk) 16:40, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
