but it really isnt. like all contemporary scifi movies, it doesnt make sense in the grand scheme of things, but you can wrap your head around it if you just spend some time thinking about it.
Imagine a Stephen Seagal movie, where plot where plot and characters randomly appear and drop.
You have an general overview of everything but you know, that nothing makes sense.

You think Nolan movies are comparable to Stephen Seagal flicks? Sounds like he genuinely may be 2deep4u.

No, I don't see how Stephen Seagal is relevant to the Nolanverse.
And for the record, I kinda doubt the average tee vee poster would be able to pick out plot holes from a Seagal movie either (without searching imdb or sth).

Go on then. Give an example of plot not making sense in Nolan movies.

That's what I thought. Zoomer shits can't discuss cinema at even the most surface level. They just
spam meme buzzwords like "midwit" and "filtered" to feel good about themselves. What a trash board.
Unironically yes. The movie grinds to a halt repeatedly, takes you by the hand, and explains what you just saw, what you're about to see, and why it's happening. Fricking repeatedly. There's nothing to "get," at all. It's braindead simple.
If you can't follow a Nolan movie, you're legitimately fricking moronic.
You could also be describing Inception here, too. I was surprised after each of them that there was apparently something to 'get'. Neither film really allows interpretation. I don't dislike his films (other than Tenet), but they are in no way hard to follow. The only one that allows any debate about what happened is The Prestige, and even then there isn't much. I'm not criticising him, he makes fun films, but they are not hard to follow
Inception, Tenet and Prestige all have some very timid mindfrick concept that is extremely straightforward and spelled out for you (if you have subtitles on, otherwise gg).
There's nothing left open to interpretation. It's just that people that fall left of the bell curve discuss about something that the movie answers if you just pay attention.
To this day people argue if the machine in the Prestige worked when they just straight up tell you 2 times: with the hat copies and with a literal montage of him killing clones.
In the real world, the spinning thing wobbles and before it never did, it was always spinning perfectly.
Again something the movie spells out for you with that wobble.

Not that anon, but it's not, because movies are not objective experiences. For every viewer there is interpretation happening in the individual frame and between the shots and in the summation of the whole through emotional interpretation.
If you are watching movies to calculate them into comprehension, and not feeling them, and beyond that finding your own connection to their emotional expression, then the deepest parts of this experience are closed to you. Movies are to be felt, not understood, because when you feel something you understand it beyond the limited frame that verbalized language forces every concept into. You can experience the limitless plane of your inner self as something bigger than you connects your life to others.
But if you just watch films to make sure you get the plot, and can remember what each character externally did in what order, you might as well go and sit on a park bench to record what cars drive past.
Most people don't realize all of Inception takes place in a dream, and that Cobb getting peace was just a side effect of learning how he performed it in the first place. Catharsis, innit.
This, it's a boring style wankfest, plus Branagh as a Russian with his shitty accent and angry women beating outbursts is just plain silly, The fact that Nolan would cast Branagh for any roles has to make you question his abilities as a director.
Nolan is such a hack
he was doomscrolling on wikipedia(cause of course) one night and he ran into the Sator square, and then wrote the movie based off of this
it doesnt have a secret cause its just random shit put together to make a glib facsimile of a sci fi movie
>Nolan: Tenet is not meant to be all comprehensible
>Cinemaphile: I totally understood everything about Tenet, it's not complicated at all
it's almost like Cinemaphile is contrarian central
Reminds me of M. Night defenders
but it really isnt. like all contemporary scifi movies, it doesnt make sense in the grand scheme of things, but you can wrap your head around it if you just spend some time thinking about it.
>it doesnt make sense but you can wrap your head around it
wtf did he mean by this?
I think he means it is easily enough to understand the plot, but you also know that plot, characters etc. make no sense.
but that doesn't describe Nolan at all. the plots make sense, he just leaves out a bunch so you're left with an experience and not a puzzle
>it means it is easy to understand the plot, but the plot makes no sense.
you just said the same thing. how about an example?

Seethe Nolanoid
Pick any scene in his Batman trilogy.
If you watch the film's scenes in reverse after watching it once everything makes complete sense.

I'll go with Nolan over you young kid, kys and take care

Checked also you are totally right.

Is DiCaprio in the real world or still dreaming at the end of Inception?

>tfw too smart to make a coherent movie
The man doesn't understand how mirrors work
I think this interview bit gives another insight on the way he hopes his movies would be seen, something you go back and forth with.
I understood Tenet.
>incomprehensible movie for midwits to jerk themselves too
Guess it's only okay when Lynch does it

Never watched it because I didn't understand why a Black person ordered hot sauce
someone tell nolan my fart is more indecipherable than his movies through is nokia n20
you didn't? even Memento subverts everything you think you know about the character at the end. which sucks because I love a good puzzle.
memento is the only nolan movie i really like
Mad Libs does make your own impossible puzzle! Would rather be tortured by Stanley Donen's Hitchwiener rip-offs.
I think Nolan's biggest sin with Tenet is that it's fricking boring.
This, it's a boring style wankfest, plus Branagh as a Russian with his shitty accent and angry women beating outbursts is just plain silly, The fact that Nolan would cast Branagh for any roles has to make you question his abilities as a director.
Haven't seen it
Don't wanna see it
Never gonna see it
well no shit since SHIT DOESNT MAKE SENSE GIVEN THE RULES YOU CREATED YOURSELF!
I said this movie was trying to be complex for the sake of it but I didn't know Nolan was aiming for style given how boring the movie looks
He's a true kino kinosseur
I respect him for saying that. Most directors are too insecure to admit they like stupid shit
The Tenet is Bad meme was weak to begin with.
That was obvious from the start when the dialogue was unintelligible
Nolan is such a hack
he was doomscrolling on wikipedia(cause of course) one night and he ran into the Sator square, and then wrote the movie based off of this
