We have absolutly NOTHING, and we all know that it will be nothing of all the speculations we've made.

Isn’t it a 15 year old mentality to think dialogue is only adult if it has curse words in it? And isn’t it 14 year old mentality to think movies about space, dreams, and Batman, require blood and gore to make you feel tough?Infidel wrote: ↑July 30th, 2018, 1:04 pmBecause his ideas cannot be justified without the need for a presentation of violence. Dunkirk was laughable in that sense. As was the dialogue, but that's another burden of his in which he cannot seem to shake. His dialogue peaked with Memento, and then became more insulting to the intelligence of the average man every film onwards.DHOPW42 wrote: ↑July 30th, 2018, 3:54 amIn what way has it been limiting Nolan's work so far? On what basis do you say that Nolan, and what he wanted to achieve with his films, was limited in his creative choices by the PG-13 rating? I'm honestly baffled by this.Infidel wrote: ↑July 29th, 2018, 3:17 pmI want something devised for intelligent adults, the last film to be so being Memento. The PG-13 thing he has going on may be fantastic for him and his handlers financially, but artistically they are extremely limited. The Prestige is the closest to breaking free of that burden.
2001 had nothing in in that would justify blood, or strong language, or violence. Because it treat the audience with respect, and is agreed universally as a masterpiece. Nolan's work, perhaps not. Insomnia is the closest he's come to something brilliant. Memento was the height of his brilliance.

Okay, but let's take Dunkirk as an example through which I would like to make a point:Infidel wrote: ↑July 30th, 2018, 1:04 pmBecause his ideas cannot be justified without the need for a presentation of violence.

Why are we so dismissive of Akira? Or why is it only barely mentioned here? He was supposed to produce it yes? But very little has happened since that was announced. We've got several people here saying they'd love to see him do another sci-fi, or something cyber-punk. Do you just NOT WANT it, given the original is fine? Do we think Nolan isn't that interested?
I'm not sure we need a live action Akira, but I do think Nolan could do great work on the script and building upon the already spectacular visuals of the original film.
