So I don't this will be an action film. Nobody " goes for an Oscar". Especially in these times where the award has lost its luster. badbu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,326 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Of course, I've not yet seen a Nolan movie where the characters are made of flesh and blood, so he has that against him if he wants to go for the Oscar. Naïve Old Fart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a movie about people who in real life could have been Nolan characters. Maybe that will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,300 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Finally watched the teaser. Kinda nifty, very short though. I thought it was interesting that they uploaded it as a livestream that continually changes the countdown within it. I wonder what the technology is behind that.

Edmilson 7,393 Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Nolan recreated an atomic bomb explosion without CGI: Quote "I think recreating the Trinity test [the first nuclear weapon detonation, in New Mexico] without the use of computer graphics, was a huge challenge to take on," explains Nolan in Total Film(opens in new tab)’s upcoming 2023 Preview issue. "Andrew Jackson – my visual effects supervisor, I got him on board early on – was looking at how we could do a lot of the visual elements of the film practically, from representing quantum dynamics and quantum physics to the Trinity test itself, to recreating, with my team, Los Alamos up on a mesa in New Mexico in extraordinary weather, a lot of which was needed for the film, in terms of the very harsh conditions out there – there were huge practical challenges."

Brundlefly 2,385 Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Wasn't it quite negligent to allow Christopher Nolan to shoot a movie with such a topic? - I mean, he could have initiated a real nuclear explosion in order to "make it look real", don't tell me that it couldn't have happened! crocodile and Tallguy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do wish whoever markets Nolan’s movies would switch up the title treatments a bit. Although I guess it’s his visual “brand” now. The Prestige, Inception, Dark Knight Trilogy, Dunkirk. All sans-serifs, kerned out super wide. I think Interstellar is the only film title of his to use serifs. 😆 K. Typography nitpick over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellosh 3,390 Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Looks good. Didn't see Tenet so I'm not sure if that movie did the signature Nolan montage to end the film. I'm guessing he'll do the same in this either pre or post dropping of the bomb. But I loved Dunkirk. I'll take a historical Nolan film any day of the week.

crocodile 7,984 Posted March 25, 2023 Author Share Posted March 25, 2023 Saw another trailer for this at the cinema. It definitely looks intriguing but, for the life of me, I cannot imagine how it would offer a compelling feature length narrative. TENET (and Dunkirk, to lesser extent) made me worried Nolan has disappeared up his own bum a little bit.

Sweeping Strings 2,346 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 At least the climax to this probably won't have me shaking my head in incredulous amusement at how it could be a Python sketch - 'We're going to simultaneously attack and retreat, it will confuse the enemy terribly!' - like Tenet did. Wonder how condemning of Oppenheimer it's going to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post crocodile 7,984 Posted March 25, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 25, 2023 The thing that bothered me about TENET is not the silliness of the premise but the fact I didn't care. It was told in such an unappealing and incomprehensible way that I just checked out. I can appreciate some aspects of the film, and Pattinson was really likeable, but it just doesn't work.

But I definitely agree with you that Nolan appears to have become more than a little self-important in his filmmaking.

Jay 37,300 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Meth Damon refers to Jesse Plemons, who played a character in Breaking Bad (a show centered around creation and distribution of meth), and kinda looks like Matt Damon.
