Cillian is a great choice as well. Read the biography on Oppenheimer and it was fantastic. Very interesting man, who felt tormented by his own creation. Can't wait. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the biography you read called American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer? If yes, what a great book...

DeadLinesman 5,938 Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Watching a Nolan film these days is basically like experiencing Alzheimer’s. You have absolutely no idea what has gone on and nothing makes sense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea why people couldn’t follow Tenet tbh, was a fairly simple premise. Apprently you need to watch his films in a properly good cinema cos the sound isn’t made to translate to poor ones too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The movie was not that hard to follow, but I kinda like hearing the dialogues, too Think it's not too much to ask, really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the dialogue criticism to be fair, but in the grand scheme of things, he uses sound to build tension like no one else (at the level he’s operating anyway). The opening scene in Tenet is great, the scene in Interstellar where they have to reconnect the spaceship spinning around towards the end of the film when Matt Damon flies away is phenomenal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ 2,554 Posted July 28, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted July 28, 2022 (edited) Whats more important? hearing dialogue or building tension with background noises? hmmmmmm. It could be the latter, maybe his dialogue is actual dogshit and means nothing and the jokes on us the whole time. The punchline is we will never know because noone knows what dialogue took place.

Moderator Tommy 12,613 Posted July 28, 2022 Author Moderator Share Posted July 28, 2022 I loved every Nolan movie until Tenet, which still had it's moments but went very overboard with a lot of things as well. Especially the sound. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cicero 5,267 Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Wasn't a fan of The Dark Knight Rises if I'm being honest. Lot of memorable lines from Bane but that's it. 1. Inception 2. The Dark Knight 3. Interstellar 4. The Prestige 5 Memento Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially the sound. Thats exactly where im at. I absolutely loved everything about Dunkirk - total theatre experience and Inception is still up there as one of my favourites. The Dark Knight series was solid, Memento, Interstellar. Everything he seemingly touches has been pretty good. Just nothing in Tenet did it for me though. The story felt jumbled and kind of all over the place, the sound was just god awful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber nudge+ 15,325 Posted July 29, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted July 29, 2022 I actually quite enjoyed Tenet, even if I found some of it a bit silly, and thought the sound mix was annoying. At least it dealt with a somewhat unique concept of "time travel" compared to the usual stuff you see in most sci-fi movies. I also loved Pattinson in it. Really looking forward to Oppenheimer, the story has so much potential. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike 5,103 Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 (edited) I do like his films in general but I so feel the praise they do get is vastly exaggerated, not that there is anything wrong with that, I’m just not his audience. I’ve seen Inception maybe four times, and every time I like it significantly less, still a good film but not IMDB’s 13th best film, and saying that nor is Dark Knight the 3rd best film ever. I much prefer The Prestige and Memento to his Hans Zimmer distorted bass flicks, where he forgoes all sense of subtlety and turned into Michael Bay with restraint and sophistication, AND NO THAT ISN’T A CRITICISM (I’m talking to you Thomas).. I’d day he really only has one bad film, Batman 3 was an atrocity, a complete mess of a film. Edited July 31, 2022 by Spike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASF 279 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Hope it's better than Tenet. Didn't even finish it. Interstellar, Inception and Memento are his best movies for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
