He definitely has a more dry and emotionally reserved personality then, well, any director during interviews. :lol:

Nice to see Nolan come out of his shell a little here, he's a funny guy. :thumbup:

I remember JGL saying he was surprised how funny Nolan was on the set of Inception. Nice to finally see some of it :lol:

Could someone please transcribe some of his comic quotes? My hearing comprehension sucks, and I'm quite curious to know what he said. :neutral:

" Thank you very much. It's a great honour to be getting an award from the VES society. I feel a little guilty receiving it from you guys as somebody who often appears in the press talking about my use of CG like an actress talking about her use of botox.... Because this is an inaugural award the true weight of this award won't be known until we see who else you give it to. So I would encourage to think about that.. don't be afraid to go posthumous.. it would be great to see past recipients like Christopher Nolan, D.W. Griffith, Stanley Kubrick."

I always took the dry comments to be in a dry/sarcastic/wit sense of the word, as in, he's very funny but its not a humour everyone will understand or immediately get.
