    Whenever a movie of his comes out you hear this from different people:

    -his thing isnt dialogue, just accept it
    -he’s not good at action scenes, just accept it
    -he’s not great at writing characters, just accept it
    -colors are bland because he’s colorblind, just accept it

    So what is he good at

    Okay dialogue, I never see an issue. It's epic/superhero dialogue. His action scenes are great, who tf says they aren't? Characters ranged from thin and serve the plot vs good character arc. The plot, story, and scale of the movies are what push his movies above other directors. The color grading is just standard? Idk what to say for a movie like Oppenheimer or Odyssey which is primarily water and stone.

    I was just bringing up people trying to be contrarian on tiktok and try to lap up "smart people" to be different on hating Nolan's work.

  • But I love it!

    I just don’t get how he isn’t good at dialogue. Several of the most iconic lines of dialogue this century came from his films.

    And I don’t think people say his colors are bland. They just say his movies aren’t super colorful which isn’t a bad thing. His movies still are visually top notch and s*** on anything else being made nowadays. You want an example of bland visuals, watch Dune.

    Most people would disagree that he can’t write characters well or shoots poor action. Some of the best action scenes this century are from Nolan movies like the convoy chase in TDK or the hallway fight in Inception. Even for some of the weak female characters in his films, bro still wrote Murph and Catwoman.

    lowkey true i dont know what it is but he finds a way

    he's mid at a bunch of stuff but he can come up with a great movie regardless. interstellar got some awkward dialogue but it's still goated. i think he gets held to a different standard because some people act like his movies are flawless

  • I'll finally be watching this tonight. I waited 2 weeks for IMAX tickets. Anyone want to give me a rating on this?

    God knows how it happened but an actually intelligent, sharp, well researched, knowledgable and interested person managed to get on the press tour and talk to Nolan for 20 mins

    Well worth a watch! One of the only interviews that actually makes an attempt to drill down on the actual movie

    This was cool. I did feel like she asked the same question 3 times in the middle section about hubris, repentance and what not. This also felt like Nolan’s response to that translator lady.

    it's insane that this lady turned out to be an overt alt-right fascist zionist (not making this up)

  • Yeah that s*** was flames, not a single wasted frame. Movie of the decade, loved Patel’s Eurylochus even though it was way more generous in its portrayal of the character

    Fantastic adaptation

    i've never gone to a movie and said "this is too loud", it was fine. y'all are acting like it was a concert or something

  • redtruth

    I live in the UK and despite me living really close to a theatre that does 70mm, there are only 3 IMAX 70mm theatres in the whole country so that s*** is always packed

    Yeah I totally understand that man, I’m guessing all the tickets till September 20th already has dropped?

  • really enjoyed it!

    A lot of people on tik tok trying to get brownie points for s***ting on the odyssey by yapping about Nolan's writing for women when in reality all of the characters in the movie are pretty thin. At least hate on him correctly.

    The supporting cast is thin, yes, but it's a case like Inception where I ask, did I feel like I needed more depth out of them?

    Not particularly. They supported the story.

    Go revisit Batman Begins

    That's what I tell people, Batman Begins has aged poorly, The Dark Knight Rises has aged well

  • Everest

    The last act of this is just the hardest s*** of all time man

    when he says "I'm coming back for all of it" or some s*** and then you get that sub bass hit

    people are gassing the last act but I think I found that the most lacking, the blocking of the combat was only okay. Second act went craaaaazy tho.
