No that’s realistic lol. Nobody would have said shit other than to agree, because after all of that everyone would want a hot dog.
Humans in general don’t deal with mass change that well. Look at Covid.
They’d bitch at the government, bitch at their neighbors, and find a nationalized group to blame for why the way of life changed.
It wasn’t that long of a time period in interstellar. The whole collapse happened over about 30 years. So anyone over around 40 would have remembered a normal time and would agree with grandpa. They’d have seen their lives get worse and worse and desperately want to go back to the old life.
I get what you’re saying but I think society would change much more in 30 years with billions of deaths compared to covid which effectively lasted for like 2-3 years. A generation would grow up that doesn’t know any better. Society would change. Covid was peanuts compared to the crisis in the movie. There is no going back in the movie.
All of humanity is doomed but the movie doesn’t really show what that would do to society generally. A movie like Children of Men does show that. They also still have blaming immigrants and shit, but at least that movie doesn’t pretend life would carry on as normal when faced with “no more food, we’re all going to die”
