I can actually see Past Lives being the main competition. I think Killers of the Flower Moon has letdown potential similar to The Irishman. People see the stars, director and think it's automatic. This is not me saying it's going to be the Irishman but let's wait and see first. I haven't seen much ...

Most likely nominations across the board, most likely to win is probably RDJ or Ludwig. Nolan for adapted screenplay is possible. Director is also possible but less so. BP (win) is extremely unlikely. Truthfully, I don't see this winning much unless studios follow through with cratering the fall re...

I know it is not going to happen, but just for fun - what would the fallout be from a movie like this (3 hour R rated drama biopic) ever did make a billion dollars at the worldwide box office?

Domestic - $80.5M Overseas - $93.7M WW - $174.2M OMFG. I remember when Dunkirk came out and did better at the BO than expected somebody posted a video of Nolan dancing with money falling around him while a mashup of the Deshi Basara chant/Are you Ready for This played. Anyone still have that video?

It's possible studios may start pushing films back due to the SAG strike... Yeah Oppenheimer can really have a strong 90 days window easily maybe even 120... Nolan doesn't release his movies on home video until December anyway. I just really want this movie to dominate at the box office (as much as...

Possibly $77 mil? Jumping Jesus. Out of curiosity what other big films are coming out in the coming weeks/to finish the summer? I feel like there aren't any major summer releases left but I could be wrong. I don't follow that kind of stuff super closely. Meg 2, Haunted Mansion, Blue Beetle meh. Gra...

Possibly 75M+ for a biopic is fucking insane. Truly the Spielberg of our era and probably the last big star left of this industry.

Agree. Maybe Nolan should be made king-maker of Hollywood. He certainly wouldn't do any worse than the people in charge now, lol.
