Take this with a huge grain of salt: https://www.worldofreel.com/blog/2023/9/7/mi8wysplfielbboojrpgho116hkkp0 A source of mine told me on Tuesday evening that Christopher Nolan is in very serious contention to direct the next James Bond instalment. Bond producer Barbara Broccoli is zeroing in on No...

I know I've expressed this sentiment before, but I still find it absolutely incredible that the reaction to a film about a physicist can be compared to drugs and addiction (and a physicist who isn't Heisenberg!). I share your sentiment! I think it’s a phenomenal thing what Oppenheimer has achieved ...

Well, I think I'm realizing, after my sixth viewing and my second in 70mm IMAX, that I'm at the point where there are diminishing returns for subsequent viewings. :P The film is still as engaging and entertaining as ever, but I'm not getting anything new out of it, aside from a line or two of dialo...

I don't really post much anymore, but I just wrote an essay for Tenet I'm particularly proud of for Bright Wall / Dark Room so I thought I'd share it: Tenet was never going to be the savior of cinemas. Christopher Nolan’s impressionistic sci-fi action love-story is the most abstract, challenging, f...

It won't happen, but the fact we're even talking about it as a non-insane possibility speaks to the borderline unprecedented (this century, anyway) run Oppenheimer's been having regardless. -Vader Not going to say anything about what will happen, just will see the end of its run. But I do agree it’...

Why the hell is the OST cover so classy and they went ahead with that tacky monstrosity for main poster?

My take? Marketing purposes for the public. You might not like it but it still works to varied extents imo.

I would love to see Florence Pough again but as the lead in one of his films! Or Emily Blunt too if not possible with Florence.

Any chance this plays in Japan? Asking because last time I saw anything about it, it was still pending or something.

Seeing some reports that this could go higher than $850 million. I would love for that to happen. I feel the film more than deserves it. And I think it also may help more for very risky projects like Oppenheimer to be made on that scope. Because it’s surprising such a movie is doing as well and eve...
