Fellow Frenchman! :gonf:

Japan sucks, Tenet is scheduled to come out on September 17th, so I guess regardless on Covid there won't be any changes here... But if the date is maintained I'm definitely flying to Taiwan or Korea to catch it. Can't wait for two months ffs :evil:

Likely that Nolan is a guest on the ReelBlend podcast this week.
Slightly worried about this lol.

What if our boy Donald J. Nolan comes across as completely tone-deaf and out-of-touch?

Be afraid, people.

haha! I feel like this sums up the discourse circling Nolan and the film.

Even though people didn't dig Fennessey's comments I would much rather the ringer interview him. Or someone who is good at interviews like Bilge Ebiri or David L Sims (both happen to also be Nolan fans). I can't stand the Reel Blend guys, holy s*** are they annoying. And this is despite the fact that the Reel Blend guys are also Nolan fans.

Agreed. I know he is probably not popular on this forum, but he is good at what he does, and I like his podcasts, even despite him being a Nolan skeptic.

In my list of fantasies, an interview for Hot Ones with Sean Evans would be a fucking blast :gonf:

Someone on Reddit just posted the title of the screenplay book of Tenet due to be released in September. Apparently its called Merry Go Round and says it deals with Nolans interest in time.

I would love to see Nolan, JDW and Pattinson on Hot Ones as a group of individually.
