Does anyone know the situation regarding the VFX artists who went uncredited ? the news has been making the rounds on the internet, mostly in the form of click bait blaming Chris for them not being credited :?:

 Problem is I look at Nolan films more critically than others the first time. Definitely need to rewatch in actual 70mm IMAX with a more relaxed mind and I can probably see what y'all are talking about.
I feel you. The first watch I was taking it all in and adjusting to the structure and rhythm, and the second time I saw it, I was able to hone in more on all the stuff I missed.

I was worried it wouldn't reward re-watches with how long it is and how dense it is, but I was deeply incorrect.

I never worry about rewatches with Nolan. I've done one for every one of his movies since Inception and never get bored. It's just as exciting the second time. I haven't seen this one a second time but I know I'm probably going to enjoy just as much as the first.

thoughts on this?
"Christopher Nolan’s bio-pic is so intent on being a morality tale that it misses its protagonist’s complexity"

That's an odd criticism, considering the complex picture Nolan paints of Oppenheimer is perhaps one of the film's greatest strengths.
