That Bane one was one of the most poorly-structured, plot-hole-filled messes I’ve ever seen. Nolan is awful but you’re supposed to like his movies because they’re ‘good’ (if you like things that look very nice but with no characters and terrible dialogue).
I… understand this. Hearing this made the whole idea make sense to me. Christopher Nolan’s films are fantastic, everyone knows that… but when you get down to it, they’re… alright.
That’s because according to Christopher Nolan, the audio system in your home cinema setup or local cinema setup isn’t worthy. He took audiophile snobbery to the next level.
I love most of his films, but he needs to allow the sound engineers to master the audio so that it works for everyone.
Don’t be afraid to like stuff. The internet is often diametrically opposed to liking stuff, because SOMEONE doesn’t like it, and they’re going to be the loudest voice.
I liked Tenet, but I also made a conscious decision not to think about the plot too hard and just accept it’s vision of it’s own universe.
I feel like Nolan movies aren’t really about the plot so much as the conceptual notions and visual spectacle. They are almost impressionistic, the plot is just a framing device for everything else.
I kinda think Nolan knows this and gives you a hint by burying the dialog in the mix, your really not supposed to care about the story that much.
I made the mistake to watch Interstellar with my brain switched on because people were hyping the super-accurate science so much. I left so angry because the movie is so fucking dumb. Sure, the black hole was fun. But the 5 seconds it’s on screen is not enough to carry the rest of the stupid as fuck plot.
Like everything Christopher Nolan makes.
Hey, the Batman movies were good.

I thought we liked the first two because they were good and the third one because Bane’s voice was so funny.

Sure, Oppenheimer blew me away, but Tenet soured me so much, I’m not excited for The Odyssey
But I genuinely love momento and the prestige T_T
Like Tenet
I mean, fun idea on paper.
But as a movie i was whelmed. Great actors and shitty script
I didn’t understand Tenet.
As in, i couldn’t hear/make out what they where whispering to each other the whole time.

Tenet didn’t make any sense on paper. It made less sense on screen.
I should rewatch Tenet. I think I liked it, and I see criticism all over the internet recently.

So, I like Interstellar for what it is, but I’ve also made a fun game of it.
I like to ask people if they can name Cooper’s son. Most people don’t even remember he was in the movie.
It’s kind of a reverse situation of Jake Sully being the only name I can remember from Avatar.
Sure,
Timothy Afleck
I remember Neytiri because of the joke in Harley Quinn
No? Most of his stuff are terrible movies.
But, I am watching them for fucking around with cool ideas and crazy visual scenes. Couldn’t care less about plot, characters, sometimes logic, etc.
Nolan is literally telling the audience that the story doesn’t matter by deliberately burying the dialog under the music and sound effects.
Nolan is wrong. His best movies, which are his earliest movies, have great stories and music and effects and are worth multiple watches.
Only after batman and inception, his movies are overrated and annoying now.
Try The Prestige
One of my favorites, didn’t even know it was Nolan. Came out after batman begins, so that tracks.
Baseball huh
