19:20 you're right, there was many ways to get japan to surrender, which included A: Continuing the firebombing of Japan until they eventually surrender B: A full invasion of the Japanese Mainland, which would have resulted in much, much higher casualties, as the japanese people, even after the dropping of the two bombs, were fully prepared to fight to the last man, woman, and child C: Dropping all 9 planned nuclear bombs on Japan D: The Dropping of the bombs, as well as threat of a Russian Invasion as well D is ultimately what happened, the Japanese didn't even want to surrender after the first 2 bombs, and only once there was also threat of the Russians invading, did the Japanese decide to surrender to the US, which would have been far more merciful than the Russians, who, still held a heavy grudge over the Russo-Japanese War, and as we see with what happened on the Eastern Front of the European war, the Russians were extremely brutal fighters, doing to the Germans what the Germans did to them during Barbarossa. So no, The lie didn't end up killing hundreds of thousands, the truth did, and it helped save the Japanese Culture and People from being erased from the planet.

[@philippeschockweiler2553]

3:20 : Strauss vs. Straws - I think the filmmakers just wanted to emphasize the pettiness and vanity of Strauss. As a German speaker Oppenheimer would have know the original German pronounciation of the name: /straʊs/ STROWSS German: [ʃtʁaʊs] but he actually says "Straws" knowing it is how Strauss likes to hear his name and wants it to be pronounced. Strauss being petty automatically corrects him without really listening to Oppenheimer. I think it was a nice detail to show what the two characters are up against.

[@jayburn00]

A major issue I had with the movie was about Strauss. He was a much more complex character than what is shown in the movie (even though rdj hit it out of the park it only shows the political ambition and his machiavellianism in the political arena, while leaving out some of the positive impacts he had). He advocated for helping refugees before and during WW2 and helped create Atoms for Peace, which led to peaceful utilization of nuclear energy in multiple countries after the war. Aholes can be good people and/or do good things and good people can be aholes and/or do ahole things. Oppenheimer himself demonstrates this. I think leaving out this complexity about Strauss should have been highlighted as a sin, though to be fair the movie is about Oppenheimer and not Strauss. I just think RDJ's performance would have been even more interesting if they had captured that "duality". Of course the movie would have probably been longer then lol.

He also did have the scene refusing to use the goggles which was a fun mention.

[@xlankex]

Yeah, but the thing about sin 56 is that there was a spy at Los Alamos and First LIghtning was basically Russian scientists being recalled from the Gulag where they assembled the bomb according to effectively an instruction manual that was stolen from Los Alamos. As for the 200,000 sins, welcome to the progressive faculty room where they baselessly claim that the bomb was unnecessary and the Japanese were begging to surrender. Best case estimate was a million U.S. military deaths and multiples of that to Japanese civilians for an invasion of mainland Japan. I award 11,000,000 sins.

8:40 This was surely Nolan recognizing the immense gravity of this quote and how poorly executed it was in terms of capturing it. It signified so much about their relationship, how and why he used beer and shovels. How he clearly had thought about it and had it locked & loaded knowing Strauss’ objections to the isotopes. It was intellectually humiliating. Can’t imagine even a movie this large would reshoot an entire pick up shot even for a Nolan production . The “early” laugh could signify even the reporters immediately understood the checkmate in the statement. The shovel is the punchline considering if he stopped at that word you’d still understand the meaning. And adding a simple laugh track in post seems a lot more affordable to mostly achieve a historically accurate correction

lmao The Godzilla sentence was gold

This is hands down one of the best cinema sins in ages. I haven’t laughed this hard in a long time. Well done guys.

I can confirm: Göttingen is a real place in Germany and is a really lovely city with loads of history and academic stuff, also lot of good bars 🌝

Oppenheimer and Barbie memes were pure unadulterated awesomeness.

6:11 This coffee statement alone earned you a like

11:20 It was explained: for compartmentalization; each time a soldier is in the room, they can't talk about Bruno. Then Ernest Lawrence says "fuck that" when he joins the programme.

The biggest, most unforgivable sin: The explosion. So underwhelming🤣

8:21 If there's one thing that the movies Barbie and Oppenheimer can agree on, it's that horses are awesome!

[@stormrail4540]

11:17 The movie absolutely does tell us why the word "gadget" is used over "bomb", and it does so implicitly for Oppenheimer's internal struggle on creating a weapon with his expertise, a thematic detail that already got a sin removal just a minute prior

1:15 He actually mentions that no cabinet nominee has failed to get the job since 1925, not the other way round. Line at 10:57

They didn't even show Francis Ferguson, Oppenheimer's bestie for lifetime.

I’m here to inform you that they indeed let RDJ wear a suit of iron again or whatever Dooms suit is made of my point is they failed us and you tried to prevent it 😂

In my opinion, in order to enjoy this movie, you have to see Veritasium's video on Oppenheimer. This way you already know the majority of the names and facts and you can enjoy the film rather than trying to figure things out while watching it. Big names like Einstein, Bohr and some of their theories are nice to know so you can understand their characters and more importantly, how damn well they are executed in this movie!
