I wouldn't

The Crowd and Greed two other contenders

but it's still Metropolis for me (by far actually)

A. Spoiler tag this.

B. Like what

I respect it lol

yeah Passion Of Joan the greatest silent film and Dreyer might be the overall goat of cinema

I'll never forget that Moloch scene

Couldn't believe my eyes on first watch. Stunt me flying through the air looking like ants cause the scale of the set was so massive.

Dano is pure cheeseball in this

jawdropping

My bad, I hid it now. And it’s been a while since I’ve seen it but I’m thinking of the dinner scene when one of the brothers brings ScarJo to his brother’s family dinner in front of Jessica Biel. We’re led to believe it’s because of an affair but really it’s just the Bale sabotaging his brother’s marriage in front of him. It felt like it’s a scene put in just to throw the audience off and it works but when you know the twist that they’re twins and all they’ve sacrificed for each other the logic that they’d do this to one another doesn’t make as much sense to me

I’d have to rewatch to remember if there were more but that’s one that stuck out to me

Film discourse has essentially devolved into this in the 2020s:

I'd argue that scene works better on a rewatch... Bale was drunk and somewhat sabotaging his brother's marriage because the one that was drinking was buried alive and almost killed by Hugh Jackman's character. We didn't know it was him that was buried alive, we thought it was Bale's assistant. But once we find out his assistant is how he would hide in plain sight, it's pretty clear on rewatches that the reason that Bale is drunk/showboating ScarJo around is because he's the one that almost died the night before and is pissed off. He even makes sly remarks about it.

I forgot about the buried alive twin

I’ll have to rewatch I might be tripping

No worries, I'm not trying to be antagonistic at all, I just think that's Nolan's best movie and that it holds up incredibly well on rewatches. When you said it didn't, I was genuinely confused lol.

Bale plays both twins with such subtle but distinct personalities you can kinda tell which is which as you watch the film. And it's a real magic trick that most people don't clock the twist on first watch because of how overt and obvious a lot of stuff is. The scene with the kid crying over the bird and saying "But where is his brother?" scene is awesome in hindsight.

You good, I probably should’ve made sure I had the movie fresh in my head before yapping off about it lol. Plus learning things I missed gives me new perspective on movies and often leads to me liking it more

Bryan Cranston voices Commissioner Gordon
I'd recommend it homie

Begins is awesome

Great take

Thanks OP I needed other people to come forward with this truth

i watched this for the first time on p***hub. like 2012 or 13 i cant remember but right after it came out

good movie !

This film was ground zero.

One day we'll return to the sacred texts. When everyone stops trying to act so damn cool. One day.

Thread made me upgrade my Nolan Batman trilogy to 4k

Revisit confirmed Begins runs laps around s*** ass The Batman

TB still better than Rises

I dont agree at all but Begins is underrated

Duh

The Batman is the worst Batman movie ever

Would easily rather revisit campy Joel Schumacher ones than sit through The Batman for a third time
