the more contemporary actors are going to pull me out of this I just know it
I thought Downey would but from what I seen it's not that bad
Matt Damon is definitely pulling me out of it though
Matt Damon doesn't even try anymore. I think the last time I saw him try to act for real was The Departed.
>Matt Damon is definitely pulling me out of it though
lmao yeah. Can't buy him as a general at all lol
He's acting like he's desperate and about to cry instead of being commanding.
wasn't Groves the head of the engineer corps? i can buy him being less of a soldier than your average infantry general
Fricking Matt Damon is just so... Matt Damon. He legitimately doesn't seem like an actor. Even McConaughey acted the pants off of him in Interstellar. I'm surprised that Nolan tolerates him.
he's probably the comedic relief. dumb American patriot.
>Fricking Matt Damon is just so... Matt Damon.
i like him but it really do be like that. I saw that Liberace movie recently with him and Michael Douglas and in any other movie his acting would've been pretty good but put him next to Michael Douglas who completely dissapeared in the role and then you see Matt Damon acting instead of seeing a character, like you do with Liberace
yes
Matt Damon is so fricking out of place
I couldn't help but laugh when I saw Josh Peck. And then there's Jack Quaid who looks very out of place. This new generation doesn't have much going for it, huh?
So far Matt Damon is making me cringe.
same. didn't need any big name actors in this tbh. murphy is fine as the lead.
>didn't need any big name actors in this tbh
No normie would've seen this without big names given the subject matter
the reanimated actors are going to pull me right into this I just know it
so many bravo performances I squealed
Intense. Finally, RDJ has to act.
I would argue he was actually giving excellent performances in the MCU films but it's like acting in a comedy where the trappings of the genre mean even when you nail it you never get full credit because it's not "serious."
I mean, everyone agreed that he was very good and he was very popular but I don't think many people ever acknowledged how hard it really is to play a smug yet charming douchebag who's always the smartest person in the room but also a rapid-fire joke machine who also has an emotional arc to his performance. It's more obvious how hard it when other people try to do the same thing and fail, like a lot of the later-stage MCU has done.
I won't say excellent, but he has a strong screen presence and people still miss him after post-endgame.
Critics are praising his performance more than Cillian. So I'm excited for his role.
>Robert Downey Jr says ‘OPPENHEIMER’ is the “best film I’ve ever been in.”
How much is he in it? I don't think Strauss was at Los Alamos
Lol, capeshitters. Grow up homosexuals.
He's essentially just playing himself which is why he's so good at it. Drug addict alcoholic, partied a ton.
I'm tired of pretending he wasn't great in his Sherlock movies. He played a very American Holmes which rubbed fans of the classic interpretations the wrong way but his actual performance was very good, also he had excellent chemistry with Jude Law which hasn't always been the case with portrayals of Holmes and Watson
watch more movies.
rdj has been in films since the 80s
>Finally, RDJ has to act.
he carried the entire MCU on his back
the entire MCU is shit so he really didn't
>the entire MCU is shit so he really didn't
Iron Man 1 was kino. They've been aping his character archetype to lesser success (Doctor Strange for example) and he's probably the standout actor in all of the movies.
hell, he mogged Chris Evans in Civil War
RDJ was the best actor in the Avengers. I was going to say in the whole
MCU but then thought about how many people they had playing presidents or one off roles for movies.
You know that the same year he debuted as Iron Man he successfully played a Black person in black face, right?
can't wait until someone uploads the whole movie to Twitter, going to watch it on my phone while I'm at work
there is a certain type of writing in movies like this, movies based on true stories that I cant stand
its like everyone besides the hero has to be CONSTANTLY doubtful and superstitious. like if there were a movie about the game space invaders, every other scene would be business men, the creator's wife, friends, all saying YOU MEAN TO TELL ME YOU THINK PEOPLE ARE GONNA PLAY AS THIS LITTLE SHIP AND SHOOT LITTLE PIXELS UP AT OTHER LITTLE PIXELS FOR HOURS AT A TIME??? ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR FRICKING MIND????
Yeah I get what you mean, it's for the sake of drama. The real events probably weren't as dramatic.
I feel like it's a result of trying to respect the legacy of a real person through film, you have to mythologize them somehow and that's just the most functional way most writers have found to do it.
Ironically something like Dunkirk felt more realistic and human despite a lot more of that being fictional.
>Nolan's version: Politely dramatic dinner scene of Oppenheimer claiming there was no spy.
>Real-life: "Opp, you're a fricking moron for letting this happen under your nose. Truman was right about your pussy mentality."
This is based on the book American Prometheus. It maybe a little more dramatic than what happened irl but it doesn't match your headcanon.
now I won't be able to unsee this
> If I completely change the context to something more mundane....it sounds awkward.
Jej, anons are surprised why laymen are asking questions to a scientist on a project with a huge time constraint. It's as if no one here has held a job beyond flipping burgers.
I have this same feel but never knew and anon could write it like this for me
so what biopic do you prefer?
Weird: The Al Yankovic Story
TRYING TO BLOW UP PEOPLE OPPENHEIMER? YOU'RE CRAZY, A WILD SON OF A b***h, I'M TAKING YOU OFF THE TEAM, LEAVE YOUR BOMBS ON MY DESK AND FRICK OFF
youre such a homosexual, why do you even watch movies?
>you mean to tell me that bombs... le explode?
in this movie it makes sense anon, some people were shitting themselves thinking that the bomb would destroy earth atmosphere
Add the scene where they sit in a bar about to give up but then the most autistic one reminds himself how they failed to hit on some bar bawds and spergs out of the premise without explaining anything to anyone to the mix and you have a perfect biopic.
>You’ll never become death, destroyer of worlds. Just give up already!
I just watched it and it looks amazing. However, I gave it my full attention and I only saw Florence one time while Emily Blunt appears multiple. I guess Oppenheimer had two lovers.
The most interesting thing to me is the sub-plot about the spy because people watching will be looking for clues as to who it is.
>who it is
My dude, you just need to look at history to find out who it is
that's a trailer not a fricking clip
>soviets got a bomb
wasn't that until after the end of ww2?
will the movie go past ww2? i thought it would end with the two bombs being shipped to japan
knowing how Nolan is the movie will not be linear.
The black and white interview scene seems to be taking place at a later date after the war, so maybe the movie will open up on that and the colored scenes of the bomb development will be intercut like flashbacks.
The Soviets tested a device in '49. Investigations into Soviet intelligence activity over the 50s and 60s basically revealed that they were already preparing to steal from and subvert the West before the ink on the Lend Lease Act was even dry. The Venona Files declassification has basically vindicated all of McCarthy's worst fears that there were communists actively conspiring to infiltrate US industry, government, education, and media in the 40s and 50s.
The framing device for the movie is the meeting in '49 to discuss the Soviet device and its implications of a nuclear arms race between superpowers, with the main story starting out in '41 or '42 and focusing on all the build-up to the Trinity Test and the fears and concerns of the various scientific minds over such a possibility.
I wonder if they're going to include the anecdote about Truman and Stalin at Potsdam during the Trinity Test
(Truman "threatened" Stalin by telling him they'd created a weapon with incredible destructive power, and that night Stalin went back to his hotel, phoned the head of his intelligence agency and told him they needed the bomb as soon as possible)
It was worse than that - the Soviets recruited the Rosenbergs as early as '41 or '42 according to most sources, and they in turn recruited Fuchs, Gold, and many other members of the Los Alamos and Oak Ridge research and support teams. The Soviets were already swimming in American weapons secrets by the time of the Postdam Conference.
>Rosenbergs
Maybe more dumb boomers will learn about the back-stabbing nature of israelites thanks to this movie.
>"On June 19, 1953, Julius died from the first electric shock. Ethel's execution did not go smoothly. After she was given the normal course of three electric shocks, attendants removed the strapping and other equipment only to have doctors determine that Ethel's heart was still beating. Two more electric shocks were applied, and at the conclusion eyewitnesses reported that smoke rose from her head."
mmm... fried latkes...
>McCarthy's worst fears that there were communists actively conspiring to infiltrate US industry, government, education, and media in the 40s and 50s.
Too bad we dropped the ball on that front
Old mac must be spinning in his grave
>dropped the ball
homie we fought the people who were trying to prevent such a thing. You can't fight the people who were fighting israelites and communists and then be surprised that they did what they said they'd do.
It's telling that "red scare" and "McCarthyism" are taught as somehow irrational.
Irrational paranoia is dangerous. The issue is equating perfectly rational paranoia about a demonstrable threat to completely irrational paranoia about nonexistent bogeymen.
>nonexistent bogeymen.
which are?
The lesson from McCarthyism is that we weren't paranoid enough.
>McCarthy's worst fears that there were communists actively conspiring to infiltrate US industry, government, education, and media in the 40s and 50s.
Good thing we stopped all those pesky communist yep.
jesus this cast lol. did they just round up every Hollywood star for this movie?
i've noticed a lot of movies are doing this now
just having lots of big names in it, the movies are always fricking shit too
>i've noticed a lot of movies are doing this now
it usually works when the subject matter is dense or needs a big lift (American Hustle had a big ensemble cast, as did Les Miserables)
I watched Les Miserable because it had big names from my country of Australia but not American Hustle. I guess for me it can't just be any big names and it has to be the right names.
Unironically Bravo Nolan for the cast and doing his best with such lame subject matter.
>just having lots of big names in it,
None of these people are big names, they're past their primes. Pretty depressing how we have 0 movie stars.
>did they just round up every hollywood star for this movie?
No... it just looks that way because Nolan only cast white people and there's a limited pool. If he wants 50 well known actors then it'll be people we recognise. That piece of shit cast my wife just to make her get naked. She appears for half a second in the trailer.
The music was great but it made the dialogue hard to hear. It's Tenet all over again.
>Damn that piece of shit for giving my wife the aspiring actress the biggest role she's ever and likely will ever have
News flash moron the director doesnt cast fricking extras. They often don't do any casting at all aside from the main leads. It's not like your wife is some sacred virgin who hasn't already been naked online, be happy for her.
wes' latest kino has far more of them
another nolan film where dialogue is difficult to parse because of the music/sound effects
Hope it's more clear in the film. This was just an extended trailer.
It's mind-blowing to me people are actually excited for this movie. There are like 2 good biopics and this one isn't even about an interesting guy. Wooow he helped develop the atomic bomb thats so twisted and crazy! I could not give less of a frick. It's Nolan too so you know the writing is gonna be bad. Are people rly this easily swayed by marketing?
it's 2023, they are mostly bots
>There are like 2 good biopics
which ones?
He also already made an action movie with a nuclear bomb threat. He should've took a break.
I also hate biopics. I'm not sure why since I like historical epics, and I find a lot of people they make biopics about interesting on their own and I'm a big fan of autobiographies and biographies, it's just biopics seem so bland and boring for some reason.
We're all going to pirate this right
I am but I'd pay if I wasn't broke. It looks good enough to pay for.
I was going to go watch it with my parents but I might pass and go alone since there's a sex scene
Apparently Florence and Cillian fug so you should probably go alone. I'm sure it'll be great but also cringe with your parents.
I'm just waiting for the awfully stupid nudity scene.
>Although Nolan is usually, shall we say, antiseptic in his approach to romance, Oppenheimer represents a significant shift. He told Wired the love story aspect “is as strong as I’ve ever done”. It features prolonged nudity for Murphy and Florence Pugh, who plays Oppenheimer’s ex-fiancee, as well as sex, and there are complicated scenes with Emily Blunt, who plays his wife, “that were pretty heavy”.
2.5 hours of filler until Florence Pugh's porn debut. It will be a test of endurance.
Don't worry – according to sources, Nolan will be playing around with time dilation again, where 3 millisecond of nuclear fission equals 3 minutes of fricking equals 3 years of research and development at Los Alamos, so the sex scene will actually be interspersed throughout the entire runtime.
Please be true
>Close up of Cillian Murphy's erect wiener entering Florence Pugh shot in full IMAX
>"Don't try to understand it, feel it"
lmao is that a real line
It's from The Idol and not Oppenheimer, lol
i know
does he say that line in the pic though?
also he sounds like a homosexual lmao, never heard his voice
yes.
It's the first time Nolan has seen a woman naked, pretty heavy stuff
I'm so excited
>close-up of Murphy's wiener plunging into Pugh's pussy seamlessly transitioning into Little Boy dropping on Hiroshima
I always wondered why his movies are so sexless. Main plot point of inception is the romance between leo and french face, yet its so lifeless and sexless.
probably because i'm a loser and have no gf to go the movies with.
No. I simply will not watch it at all
I will watch it on my smartphone to piss Nolan off
probably.
I'm seeing it in Imax
You have to be cucked to watch a barely understandable film in a huge, noisy, IMAX theater (and pay more for it).
I’m waiting til this is on streaming for free.
Probably not certainly not buying it. WW2 history is tiresome so fricking tired of boomers obsession with it.
Of courshe!
>Oppenheimer made his own concentration camp filled primarily with israelites
The Destroyer of Worlds...was based?
OPP, WAIT
DON'T STARE DIRECTLY INTO THE EXPLOSION FROM 10 FEET AWAY
Looks like another Nolan snorefest
Danes back
isn't that the question of the day!
This shows how dedicated Nolan was to casting only white people. Jack Quaid, this dude ... and Josh Peck? He would literally rather cast the bottom of the barrel then have to deal with the Black flavor of the month.
Wow it actually doesn't look that cringe
Yeah, I thought it would be boring but the keep releasing new content and it looks more interesting. From what I heard in this new trailer, the Russians steal their designs so their must have been a spy at the base where they develop the nuke. Also, my favourite part
>Benny: They won't let me leave
>Opp: I won't let you leave
>3600 RÖNTGEN!
BOGGED BLUNT JUST TAKES ME OUT OF IT
WTF IS SHE DOING TO HER FACE
why do villenueve and nolan think they are kubrick
this is Nolan's Dr.Strangelove he already made his "paths of glory'.
They want to be ambitious but they lack Kubrick's tongue-in-cheek humorous scenes of Malcolm McDowell getting yelled at by a prison guard or Tom Cruise getting called a homosexual in NYC.
>They want to be ambitious but they lack Kubrick's tongue-in-cheek humorous scenes
Joker was funny in TDK. Interstellar had some humorous moments too.
nobody remembers anything about interstellar except from that music bit with the spinny ships
TARS is considered one of the most memorable film robots of the 2000s. Probably the most memorable.
lmao
the only one anyone remembers is WALL-E
You really shouldn't speak for "everyone", kek. Interstellar was a bigger hit than Wall-E and still sells out theaters to this day.
shut up Black
Not until morons like you stop yapping.
He’s right. No one knows TARS. People know WALLE
You should interact with people who watch something more than kids films.
the people who watch and like interstellar are the people who watch kids films
This is the kind of imaginative retort one can expect from a pixar enthusiast.
> N-no u-ur the dumb dumb
Riveting, kek.
you are the dumb dumb though
Wall-e was like 10 years ago. No one knows tars
>She was badly raped ya see!
Why can't these hacks write fricked characters like this?
>This shit needs to make 400mil... to break even?
>Look at these beakers. Science!
Bravo Nolan!
crazy guy
What the frick is with the audio mixing in this trailer? Did they actually release it like this or did the "NolanAnalyst" fan account just frick up the encoding? The dialogue is muffled and quiet and the effects are deafening.
>Did they actually release it like this
yeah, this is just an extended trailer. the film would be more somber.
not watchin it but I already know Matt Daemon was a miscast.
Nolan should hire me to fix the audio levels in his films, wtf.
redditsisters... midstopher nolan has done it again!!!! looks like film of the year (i only watch capeshit and blockbusters)
>midstopher nolan has done it again!!!! looks like film of the year (i only watch capeshit and blockbusters)
There isn't anything more reddit than this meme format.
kinda unrelated but now that RARBG is dead where people download the new films?
I always check 1337x first now that RARBG is gone. RIP.
1337x.to
yts
Saw an early screening of this. Best biopic since Lawrence of Arabia. Not memeing, Surprised Nolan was able to make something so impressive based on such a decidedly uncinematic subject matter.
Anon, was the sister-in-law character Jackie aka actress Emma Dumont in it or was she cut from the film?
Not a single recent ensemble all star cast film has been good.
Not a single recent 3 hour plus film has been good.
Is the subtext that Nolan sees himself as an Oppenheimer like science virtuoso when he's heading up his nine figure technically intricate expansive recent films? Is this film really going to be that much of an obvious attempt to self-suck?
That's a SCENE? It looks like a fricking trailer
It’s an extended trailer. OP got it wrong
haha whoopsie wow what a lil mistake that was definitely not on purpose to bait people into coming in the thread
frick off OP
fearing for my ears when the test scene starts
Nolan fanbros, I am so happy that Nolan has brought Josh Hartneck back to the spotlight.
missed this guy
he was in the new black mirror episode. he did well acting-wise.
Is the new black mirror worth watching?
no, it's probably the worst. very predictable and cheap.
Absolutely not. Don't waste your time.
Soundtrack sounds like dogshit video game music. Is this Zimmer again?
No, it's the Swedish guy who did Tenet as well.
>dogshit video game music
it's violins
He was probably expecting a rap song or a moody cover of an older rock song.
>it's violins
So what, they play those for video games too. It's lifeless is what it is.
Shut the frick up Black person.
You sound 80 IQ
>those for video games too
Oh a vidya manchild. That explains things.
No I don't play video games, I deride them, which is why my comparison is an insult.
Not the feeling I get from that clip, but of course these things are always edited to be overblown and cloying to get the masses interested. Nolan's films tend to underwhelm me with their soundtracks and music direction so I can't help but feel apprehensive on that front.
>No I don't play video games, I deride them
How do you know their music then? Better yet, tell us your favourite film score preferably from the past decade so that you don't hide behind the reputation of classics.
From the last decade the first thing that comes to mind is Phantom Thread.
> PTA
> Johnny Greenwood
At least be pretentious properly.
I think it sounds good moron, what's pretentious about that?
>Phantom Thread
Unironically good choice.
Brainlet detected.
>It's lifeless is what it is.
Critics have been praising the score/ost
>Ludwig Göransson's score is so extraordinary that the film has been compared to an opera.
>nobody mentions that he did the music for Turning Red
haven't watched new pixar.
>As for the female characters, everyone agrees that Pugh's character deserved more development. Emily Blunt, on the other hand, is being praised for her final arc.
>Pugh's character deserved more development
I gave my thoughts on it here:
He cast Florence, who looks suspiciously like his daughter and made her do a sex scene. Also, she's in the trailer for one second max and I was glued the whole time.
She's for 20 mins in the films according to French critics.
20 minutes is fine, I guess. Cillian looks perfectly cast, Benny Safdie is a good actor and 20 mins of Florence so I think it'll be good. That's about the extent of the cast that I like.
what about RDJ, Gary Oldman?
What about them? I'm sure you like them if you're asking me about them. Is this Nolan posting on Cinemaphile or something.
lol, do you like RDJ's acting so far?
He didn't impress me, no; That's just my opinion. I'm very good at detecting bullshit and RDJ wasn't his usual snarky self so people probably see that as impressive because he's not playing himself for once.
>RDJ wasn't his usual snarky self so people probably see that as impressive
true, he was decent in the zodiac imo.
>he was decent in the zodiac
He was, but he was also snarky as frick.
Yep, like every other role he's in. He _can_ act but they just want RDJ every time they cast him and Nolan is the first person to say he didn't want RDJ (the character). Watch The Judge and you can see he's a decent actor.
I'm not looking forward to Jack Quaid. Everything I've seen from him was lame.
I try to focus on the good and if there's no good to focus on then I don't watch. That's how I decide to watch to watch. Music is important to me, the movie should look beautiful and I should care about the characters; These all apply to Oppenheimer.
That's how I decide what to watch*
I'll definitely watch it, since if nothing else Nolan understands story structure and how to make an entertaining film, and it looks visually interesting. But I'm concerned about the dialogue since that's always been among his weakest points and this film is clearly very dialogue heavy.
Ludvig Göransson (Black Panther, Creed, Mandalorian), who did Tenet also. Apparently Dunkirk's scoring was such an arduous process that for the time being Nolan and Zimmer decided to part ways.
Half of the people here will pretend to ridicule this but I don’t give a shit. It’s objectively great. Murphy and RDJ play off well against each other. The music and cinematography are top notch. Can’t wait.
THIS CAST IS FRICKING STACKED!
i got chills, cant wait man
One of Nolan’s kids looks like Christian Bale
A bit, yes, but that mouth and nose are Nolan's.
They both do kek, the one with glasses looks like him as a young Bruce in BB
in the eyes a little, but he's got literally the same nose and mouth as Nolan
The daughter does.
jesus, the wife is hideous. if the world's greatest director can't do better, what hope can we have?
also why the frick are his sons dressed like they're going over to a family friend for dinner, it's a damn premiere
the wife's a producer who helpd him get his kinos made. nolan sacrificed it all for kino.
wouldn't mind fricking the daughter. healthy hips.
>not a single speaking black person
this is easily going to make a billion
they'll probably stick a few blackground characters in
they did it for outlaw king and 1917, making sure the camera focuses on them for a little bit
If you still don't believe that Hollywood pays people to shill here you're delusional.
it's probably all AI on a pass at this point
Fricking kek. We have TWO Cinemaphile posters with speaking roles in this film. That thot Emma and Dane.
Don’t forget Benny Safdie
Oh shit that's right. Three Cinemaphile gays in a Nolan film.
Is Benny the moron or was that the other one
looks kino to me
>First 5min
why? why the frick would anyone want to watch this? its bad enough trailers spoil half the movie, now its okay to show the first 5 minutes?
what does this accomplish?
It's not even the first 5 minutes. It's just a five minute long trailer.
I have a feeling, this is going to have TDK level of popularity
no way it looks emotionally cold.
israelite good
israelite smart
worship israelite pedo
So do I go Barbie > Oppenheimer or Oppenheimer > Barbie.
You have to time it with what you will do after leaving the theather: post here with your bros. That's why the apt order is to watch Oppenheimer last, that way your memory you will be fresher for more in depth discussions that only Oppie will provide.
That makes complete sense. I can't believe people even want to see Barbie but they should watch it first if they do. Nobody on Cinemaphile cares about my favourite movie but they want to see Barbie, by the same director. I hate this place so much.
There's a good chance Barbie ends up being Woke Trash
Opp is the safe bet
>a good chance
it stars a troony
Is it just me or is RDJ kinda channeling Jeremy Irons in this? Got that impression at least.
same here
>Zoomers are so fricking impatient and braindamaged they can't wait for a movie to come out. They need to see a 5 minute clip days before.
What the frick is this shit?
What?
>it's another zimmer music is actually just tick tick tick tick background sound design
i was wondering how nolan would make a biopic "feel" like one of his action movies and there it is
Pugh's character was a lesbian who obsessively slept with men hoping it would cure the gay. It of course didn't work. She apparently an hero'd though there are some non-schizo clues that she might've been killed by CIA for being active in commie shenanigans
Were the Germans even working on a nuke?
yes there were WMDs in germany and it's antisemitic to say otherwise
should Russia also have nukes would be a good question.
Yes. It wasn't as far along as we feared, especially with the setbacks on the Eastern and Western fronts eating into Germany's resources, but they were still trucking along.
Yes but they didn't have the money or resources to get very far with it.
Everyone had been looking at them since atomic fission was discovered.
Tube Alloy's had been going on longer than the Manhattan Project until it was absorbed in when the British realised they didn't have the money for it anymore.
ofc they were, Heisenberg was the project head iirc. the reason the Manhattan Project got started in the first place was because Allies scientists realised zee Germans could or were developing a nuclear bomb and Einstein and Szilard urged Roosevelt in a letter to do something about it
Germans were the first to discover fission. Too bad they weren't able to work unimpeded, otherwise they would have been first to having a bomb and the world would be a much, much better place: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discovery_of_nuclear_fission
Ok since nobody here is mentioning it this isn't even five minutes of the film. It's just a long trailer.
It’s not the first five minutes, it’s 5 minutes of footage.
And if Nolan is going to make a film where I can’t hear the fricking dialogue, then I’ll wait to watch it at home with subtitles.
What the frick is his problem?
Looks meh, why the frick is Nolan making a character driven drama, he can't write for shit
he is le artíste
don't worry next one will be more original convoluted sci-fi.
It was based in a book. He doesn’t have to
The book doesn’t have verbatim dialogue except for a few quotes from interviews (from what I remember, I read it a while ago).
So you still need to write the screenplay and characters, something that Nolan isn’t good at.
They probably have historical transcripts for various meetings, and certainly Oppenheimer's security hearing trial. Not a huge amount but it'll help.
Would love to see the transcripts of
>Let's go recruit some heckin scientists
>If I push the red button the world goes boom boom
Nah, it's gonna be shit
>The book doesn’t have verbatim dialogue except for a few quotes from interviews (from what I remember, I read it a while ago).
you remember correctly. I just finished it few days ago
What was the last genuine blockbuster to get Best Picture?
This feels the most expensive attempt at Oscar bait
Titanic or LOTR
Blockbuster is pretty hard to define.
Does Slumdog Millionaire count? The Hurt Locker?
But probably The Return of the King, 2003, if not
music was good. Zimmer finally learned how to write music. This is the first time he did something good since pirates of the carribean theme
He literally didn't do the music for Oppenheimer
lol, then that explains it
what's wrong with Zimmer again?
nothing if you're a normie with no taste
is it self-plagiarism?
no. It's just his music is obnoxious and annoying. Hitting you in the head with how you're supposed to feel in the most primitive way. It's also not complementary to the movie. It often feels like it interrupts the movie because of how overimposing it is. Kinda like voice over narration
>Hitting you in the head with how you're supposed to feel in the most primitive way.
I kinda get it. Is it the lack of melody or something? Should it be more contemplative/moody?
Also, you didn't like this one?
im not joking i think the majority of people could put something like this out with a few kontakt libraries and enough time
>Should it be more contemplative/moody?
it should be more subtle. Something like Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross are doing
this piece from Inception is not bad if you listen to it alone but as part of the movie? Frick no, it ruins the decorum
So he just steals Philip glass and gets an oscar?
Nolan lacks confidence in the script/directing, and thus requires terrible music to be playing during important dialogue scenes.
He thinks the audience is “bored” if there’s too much talking, but we wouldn’t be bored if we could hear what the frick the characters were saying.
If you see this in a packed theater, you’ll hear most people next to you say:
>What did he say??
>What was that??
>I don’t know, I can’t hear it either
he's also insecure about whether they would understand the movie so he dumps copious amounts of heavy handed exposition in the dialogue which is also annoying as frick. I just want to watch a movie, for fricks sake, just let me watch it but no, he has to ruin it with the music and those exposition dumps
>Nolan lacks confidence in the script/directing
Nolan is one of the most confident directors out there. He simply likes overwhelming music. It's a style. He can completely remove the music and still be effective (Bane vs Batman sewer fight).
The Chad Subs wins again. I wonder how many times the people who sub it have to rewind and watch scenes from Nolan movies again.
yeah, it's cheap. the way you fix boring conversations (which are sometimes needed) is with cinematography. show AND say.
Or just have it boring, why does every scene need to be exciting? Boring is fine. Modern audience wouldn't survive the 70s kino. French connection would be called boring since its a lot of sitting in cars and hotels talking.

>catwoman batman walking down a tunnel

>I get up and go for a piss
Why did he add that it just made 0 sense they were walking down an empty tunnel you stupid frick
It's not Zimmer and it's Ludwig. He did the music for Tenet, which was amazing.

>friendship ended with Zimmer
>now Bethoven is my best friend
Ludwig is better anyway. The only problem is I don't see how his bangers will work for Oppenheimer. What will they be matched with. Whose life will be in danger, lol.
Is it? The electronic instrumentation is too out of time with the setting. It's distracting honestly.
>Stars Cillian Murphy and Emily Blunt leave Oppenheimer premiere, as Hollywood actors launch strike that could stall whole industry
The millionaires are on strike
I can't wait for youtubers to call it "Floppenheimer" if it doesn't make $1 billion by the first weekend
one side of the thumbnail will be Cillian Murphy's face with a grimace, the other will be a text saying something vague but with a strong tone
RDJ's voice doesn't sound right for the times. That's just how he normally sounds! Fricking hell. Strike 1
Nolan movies are boring
So did everyone back then always make everything about "The Nazis"?
I can't tell whether it's lazy writing or not.
No. They would call simply them the Germans. Nolan is a hack so of course he calls them le ebil natzis
>Navy raised to its full strength, army and air reserved called up
Stupid fricking britbongs. You should have stayed out of it. You didn't protect Poland, you got it raped by the commies.
>Nolan
It’s lazy writing.
They were also referred to as The Nazi Party, German Military, German Government, etc.
the US military and populace didn’t even know about the Holocaust until after the war was over.
>It’s lazy writing.
>They were also referred to as The Nazi Party, German Military, German Government, etc.
Jej, there are plenty of instances where they referred to as the nazis by the outsiders. Especially by anti-nazi israelites.
So post some newspaper clippings from the 1930s-40s
Who even started that term? I believe it's a nationalist version of the "sozis" (socialists), but did the NSDAP use the term themselves?
guess ~~*who*~~ came up with it
You can say the same about the Soviets/Russians
>"The Nazis"
It always takes me out hearing this in a period films, even more so now in current films. Horrendous writing.
So real talk, will they air this movie in Japan? Cause well...you know.
Not that I expect it to do good even disregarding the personal issues with it because Japan doesn't really care about these kinds of films
They will probably ask if they want it.
They will probably say no.
No Japanese release date announced.
Glass half empty: Toho-Towa (Universal's Japanese distributor) refused to release Unbroken so that movie didn't get to Japan until an independent distributor picked it up 2 years later.
Glass half full: Nolan is very popular in Japan, they might just be giving it some time so it won't be in theaters during the bombing's memorial days.
i want to watch this with my mom at imax, but the sex scenes, man...
Memes aside this looks like a mediocre biopic.
It seems to commit the two carnal sins of historical fiction, having the story be written like the characters know the future and writing the characters as if they lived today.
Wahlberg's character especially just seems like a Marvel character instead of an actual person, and all the characters sound like they know more than they should about the gravity of the bomb and less than they should about the state of affairs they live in. It's almost as if the writers are ignorant and don't give a shit about anything but the spectacle, perish the thought.
Also the audio mixing is bad. Might just be the trailer but you never know with Nolan.
>and all the characters sound like they know more than they should about the gravity of the bomb and less than they should about the state of affairs they live in.
every historical and fantasy work feels like this now, it's insufferable
>carnal sins
Bad writing is a crime of passion.
>all the characters sound like they know more than they should about the gravity of the bomb.
People had a good estimate of how destructive nuclear weapons could be even before the bomb was actually built.
> Cardinal sins
Lol.
They didn't even know if it would work before the things were built, moron. The idea that a general, Groves presumably, would believe that the bomb was "the most important thing to happen in the history of the world" before testing had even begun is a joke.
bomb that could win the war against the nazis was at the time the most important thing in the world, yes. They won the war without it but still, he didn't know that yet
>They didn't even know if it would work before the things were built, moron.
The bombs were considered inevitable. They definitely knew it would work. It was always a matter when and who would be the first. Even the part about them being worried about the small possibility it could ignite the atmosphere is true.
they knew it wouldn't ignite the atmosphere before they tested it
Looks gay as frick
it's not only the sound. Scenes are poorly arranged and it looks like there was no preparation for them. Take the famous plane scene. It feels like an amateur student movie. I legit believe those people never met before shooting a scene, they had no directions beside reading the script and Nolan just took the first take and moved on
(me)
ps. that's probably his legitimate autism. He didn't see anything wrong with the scene because he doesn't know how human beings should really talk and behave. I'm not joking rn
>Scenes are poorly arranged and it looks like there was no preparation for them.
I'd like to see a student film with the Joker heist or the Inception pin wheel scene.
shirley you can't be serious. This is hilariously bad
That Robin Williams accent is so odd
At least looks better than Barbie
I just marathoned 5 minutes
What did I think?
The northman was a piece of shit and Anya was the least of its problems. A huge step back in Eggers' career, so much so that I'm worried for the nosferatu remake.
doesnt that start tha gross lily depp daughter?
Still not watching.
Nice. I spend all my time not watching. In fact, I have all the threads about stuff you like filtered so we'll see who wins the do nothing competition. I've been competing since birth.
I win because I am legitimately the person who enjoys being alone the most whereas everyone is afraid of it. Put me in an empty room and I'll be with my friends. Nobody can beat me.
kek
nolan really made a remake of fat man and little boy
paul newman's role went to matt damon
darkest timeline indeed
what do you mean the bomb isn't being used on white people?!!! arrgh I'm going crazy.
>germany invades... le poland?
>build doomsday weapons
Why did they put the Einstein hat reveal in the trailer? Now the hat coming off is pointless.
>Einstein hat reveal
What are you even talking about?? His hat falling because of the wind is a reveal?
It's just some guy. Then the hat.... comes off!
Oh, I get it. You're saying we don't know it's Einstein until the hat comes off. Pfff, whatever.
Why are all modern movies look so stale and fake? Like everything was a mid-tier theater decor and lazily made costumes, not an actual setting with actual people using actual items and clothing. You just feel its cheapness.
>Why are all modern movies look so stale and fake?
I wanted to say CGI but Nolan doesn't use it unless he has to so this is the wrong thread to ask. I could still answer by saying that Nolan's movies are too clean. It's too hard to recreate the past perfectly.
