Memento definitely. Dunkirk was his worst. I mean, harry styles, really?

[@cameronwadsworth9959]

Ideas come in all shapes and forms, the way to really make a film like Nolan. Is to make something surreal, but the characters and the attention to the scope of his stories make it amazing. The setting and characters truly make what would otherwise be a batshit crazy ride into an experience that tugs at the audience hearts and minds

nolan is one of the reason why I wanted to be a film maker, love and respect from india

[@Novakboi]

Really well put together, I like the use of the 'Nolan Triangle' it helps put pieces together on how he as a director attempts to fill in the gaps of his shortcomings

[@adithyasudheer1561]

Actually the dark knight rises was shot by hoyte van hoytema

[@hemangkorane1797]

No it was by Wally Pfister

[@razahyder8541]

Start with using an IMAX 70mm film camera and a brilliant and complex idea

All you got to do is make a movie and show it non-linear so that you mess with the time. After Dunkirk, Nolan's trick on time felt cheap and overdone for me.

[@inthevoidreality]

Unlike you, I like, many many other people- love it when time is messed up.. mystery and horror that comes along with such storytelling is wonderful 💯 Tenet is the only one that I felt lacking.. 'cause it had ignored that we need to have emotions for the protagonist to connect with them and feel for him.🥲

@@inthevoidreality dude, it's predictable if you seen as many Nolan movies as I've done. Ofcourse you might be in your diapers so you wouldn't know that.

[@colinneighbers4741]

You realize nonlinear plots were extremely popular during the silent era of filmmaking right? Directors HAD to get creative to make things more interesting. People nowadays think that Pulp Fiction was the first movie to do this or make it popular, which is absolutely ludicrous and objectively false. It's not a "cheap trick", it's just a storytelling technique that you personally don't enjoy. Nolan's been using that technique since his first feature length film (The Following), so I don't know how it took you until Dunkirk to sour on it, he's done it in damn near every film he's made. You should expect it by now. Nolan is known for fine tuning and "finding" his films in the editing room just like Malick and Kubrick, which is exactly what makes directors like them unique and inimitable. Nolan is not my favorite director, but nothing the man does is cheap.

This Nolan is not the independent director that was in the fact, now is full blown commercial director, a boot licker of the U. S. establishment, that may be the reason why Oppenheimer never show Hiroshima and Nagazaki or the fact that Oppenheimer never show any kind of guilt or remorse for all the lives that were killed that day, is all about the terror of the "Reds".

[@bobpritham2660]

Are you high? I watched it. It's completely opposite of what you talk. The complete point of third act is to Oppenheimer regretting his actions about bombings and the government. Trying to sabotaging his reputation.

[@TheKeyser94]

@@bobpritham2660 Oppenheimer regretted creating the bombs and causing massive destruction. But about all the Japanese people that die when both bombs drop? He didn't felt any remorse or guilt, this are two different things, sure he was sad and teary when he created a weapon of mass destruction, and regretted aftermath, but he had not tears for the victims of his creation. Not confuse fiction, that is clearly this movie, with real history, the real Oppenheimer didn't give a fuck about the millions of Japanese that die in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, that also explain why Nolan didn't want to speak about the bombing of this cities, because it would destroy the narrative of his great moral hero that created a horrible weapon and then he was persecuted, if people really known what Oppenheimer really felt about the victims of his creation, he wouldn't look much of a hero, as the movie treat him.

[@bobpritham2660]

@@TheKeyser94 Most of the third act questionnaire is about bombings. How U.S tried to shove on his ass. And about his remorse about bombings. Literally after the Trinity test and while giving speech you can see how Oppenheimer feel horrified of what would've happened by the bombings in Japan. It was the best scene of the movie. You can check the already available documentations. Heck there are even in person interviews on KZbin. What the heck is shedding a tear and crying? Does a man has to convey his regret and sorrow by shedding a tear?. Do you think Japanese are good in world war 2? What they did to china, South korea, Pearl harbour? Unit 731? OPPENHEIMER may be in horrible position for leading to nuclear project but do you think he had a say in where the bombings should happen? You are talking like he's the one ran the government not Truman or anyone. The whole third act is about his regret and US government trying to frame him as he was responsible for bombings and trying to sabotage his reputation.

[@TheKeyser94]

@@bobpritham2660 That is not the problem, but how they portray Oppenheimer, the real Oppenheimer, even that appealed about the destruction that caused the bombs, he didn't give a fuck about the millions of Japanese civilian that it killed, that is the reason why Nolan was dodging the question about Hiroshima and Nagasaki, because the hero of his movie, didn't feel any remorse or guilt for the thousand that he killed, only the destruction that it caused, whatever they portray Oppenheimer in the movie is not how the real Oppenheimer really felt about the bombs drop on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

@@TheKeyser94 You are trying so hard to deny the facts that publicly available. Good luck to your endeavours.

Nolan, an Irish Catholic, puts Bhagwat Gita in a sex scene. This is highly insulting for the Hindus. Another Irish Doyle made that film, Slumdog, which is very insulting for India. Why are the Irish anti-Indian and anti-Hindu?
