So if anyone knows of an IMAX theater in Philadelphia that's playing the prologue, I'd appreciate a heads up so I can let her know where to go.

Im not saying perfection but these kind of mistakes, like the cliche of punching a guy in the face is just lazy writing, sorry thats just fact.blackColumn wrote: ↑December 20th, 2019, 9:19 amThe perfection you are looking for comes at the cost of spontaneity. Nothing happens perfectly in real life. Audience is already tired of watching multiple unbelievable things happening perfectly.ShotValuable wrote: ↑December 20th, 2019, 9:03 amI like the scene and the tone, and the overall feel of the movie. I just can't figure out why Nolan doesn't look at these things more seriosuly. He is known to be a director that doesn't make a lot of takes for a scene. Don't get me wrong, i love Nolan and his work, i think that he is one of the last directors that really respects the art of filmmaking and the theatrical experience. But i can't just look pass them.DHOPW42 wrote: ↑December 20th, 2019, 8:47 am
I don't mean to discredit your claims, I just want to share my feelings: I honestly believe that the overall effect a piece of art has on me has nothing to do with its perfection. The same goes for the prologue, the past films of Nolan as well as ANY other film or piece of art I enjoy experiencing/watching/listening to. And I kind of feel that nowadays more and more people are fixated on art being perfect rather than being impressive and gripping. So, I'm just saying that... I'm not sure if you have a point or not, but even if you do, I'm sorry that those things result in you not enjoying a a scene or a film.
Beside the fact that you can certainly drop out after someone like JDW hits you straight in the face, 99% of people who watch the film don't care at all.Im not saying perfection but these kind of mistakes, like the cliche of punching a guy in the face is just lazy writing, sorry thats just fact.
And to the 1% that care Nolan might say:

Yes, I understand your point of view, and it's totally fine. To the question you ask: "I just can't figure out why Nolan doesn't look at these things more seriously." I'm almost sure Nolan doesn't look at his own films as perfect, and he isn't chasing perfection the same way Kubrick did, for example. A lot of things we've heard in the past point in the direction that he is more after "effect" (can't find a better word at the moment) than perfection - take the dialogue problems of Interstellar, for example. Lot of people say that in a few scenes the music and sound effects drown the dialogue, and I remember him explicitly stating in an interview that he doesn't believe this takes away from the experience. I'm not saying he's absolutely right to say this, but I kind of agree with him, and I think this answers your question of why he doesn't take these sort of "problems" more seriously.ShotValuable wrote: ↑December 20th, 2019, 9:03 amI like the scene and the tone, and the overall feel of the movie.

Nolan made too many mistake in a 6 minute sequence, in my opinion.
After watching it several times, I was able to understand it better but I definitely don’t know what the hell happened at the end.

I finally watched the bootleg and the prologue looked good and tense. But I also, did find it hard to follow. Out of context of the whole movie, the scene was confusing.
I'm sure the quality of the bootleg effects hearing the dialogue,
