Another Interstellar Discussion and Yes There Are Spoilers and I Dont Know How Hide Them.
Saw it yesterday.
Nolan really speilberged that film. Happy ending bullshit.
My question... Coop is told Murph is two weeks out. But she had been asleep for 2 years. She why did she leave earth? Did she manage to unite the population to leave earth? What was Cooper station? If it was a staging post for the trip, why did she send him to Brandt?
He should of died in the black hole, fate of humantiy unknown to the characters and Brandt alone reseeding humanity.

You supposedly watched the entire movie and yet are going online needing to ask why murph left earth? What?
Did you read my questions? Why? Was cooper station the new earth or a staging post?
either way why would they put a 100 year old dying woman on a two year journey?
If they were reseeding the human race would have left the old and dying behind.
She's like the George Washington, or Moses, or whatever huge figure you want. They revere her as the savior of humanity. Of course they'd keep her around, technology willing. The story is the story. There is no "should have" version. Much like the true story of a cat that travels across country to reach its family, sometimes truth IS "Spielberg." The story you watched is the story they wanted to tell.
I mean she literally is cooper. You really truly don't understand why the cooper station had her on it?
When Cooper wakes up the first thing they told him was "you're on cooper station, orbiting Saturn." And just prior to that they showed him floating in space orbiting Saturn.
How did you not pick up on that?
Well The whole point was that humanity was not going to go to the new planets. They were.to be left.behind because humanity could not be swayed to cooperate
Remember that murph said to.coop to go to Brandt she is all alone starting a new humanity.
It lead me to believe that cooper station was not a staging.post but more of an observatory
There was no solid data as to which planet was habitable
They were still waiting for info.
You were really bad about following the plot.
Prof Brand lied only because he couldn't get the data necessary to finish his equation (which would allow them to move a tremendous station already constructed on earth into space). Cooper gave Murphy the data that TARS recorded from the black hole, encoded in her watch while he was in the 5 dimensional tesseract. That data allowed her to finish the equations. Cooper Station is, when Cooper arrives at it, a staging point for moving humans through the wormhole. They were by that time well aware of which planet Brand was setting up on because she would have sent data back through the relays at the wormhole (Murphy was in her 30s or 40s when she solved the equation, 70+ at the station). Murphy told Cooper to go because it would be years before the rest of humanity would follow.
