but especially in this part :thumbup:

Sam Mendes is taking some cues from Christopher Nolan.
Mendes mentioned The Dark Knight and Nolan twice in a very short span, first praising the current Batman run (along with the Bourne films) as one of the best franchises, "because there are characters at the center who are to some degree in conflict about what they do, and are pushed right to the edge." Then talking about his learning to direct action, he praised Nolan's sense of non-linear action sequences: "The challenge is to create parallel action so you're not locked into a linear chase, which is something that Chris Nolan for example does very, very well. It's never just A following B, there's something else going on simultaneously, and they overlap." As two British directors who broke out in smaller dramas before moving on to giant, blockbuster action films, Mendes and Nolan have clear similarities-- so if you're curious about what Mendes-directed action will look like, you may need look no further than The Dark Knight.

Fuck yeah, parallel action! :clap:

After reading that article, I have even more respect for Sam Mendes than I ever did before. And I have always considered him one of the best directors of out time.

For some, he was a guardian angel. To others, a ghost who never quite fit in.

I love these little production Vlogs, they'll keep me occupied while i wait for the trailer. The sets look really nice, i especially like the one they showed at the end with the glass rooms and the neon lights.

It works fine on my computer. If you use safari you you have to wait five seconds before it pops up though.
