A look behind the lens of Christopher Nolan's space epic.
The Bermuda Star Rangers
In the year 2055 AD (333 years of the planet Bermuda), an international research flying saucer led by Chinese captain Mo Jiahai was searching for planets with signs of life in space. They found a humanoid planet but ran out of energy while performing space shuttle and could no longer start up just after reaching this planet. The surviving Earthlings found that their bodies' respiratory systems could not fully adapt. Unwilling to pin their hopes entirely on the AI robots, some of the Earthlings endured the uncomfortable air and stepped out of the ship, where they secretly reproduced on the planet. Hundreds of years passed, and the Earthlings who gradually adapted to the planet Bermuda also reproduced secretly from generation to generation, with the secret of the flying saucer buried deep in the desert of the planet.
Cop Out
Detectives Jimmy and Paul, despite nine years as partners, can still sometimes seem like polar opposites—especially when Paul's unpredictable antics get them suspended without pay. Already strapped for cash and trying to pay for his daughter's wedding, Jimmy decides to sell a rare baseball card that's worth tens of thousands. Unfortunately, when the collector's shop is robbed and the card vanishes with the crook, Paul and Jimmy end up going rogue, tracking down the card and the drug ring behind its theft, all on their own time and without any backup—except for each other.
