That sounds like plausible Nolan sci-fi bond.
Also, in trailer #2, we see JDW wearing a suit in the black car. In the previous trailer, isn't that another shot of another guy (clearly not JDW) sitting in the same car with gas mask on?
Are you referring to the one being shown at 0:26? Different car. Looks like JDW's car is Right-Handed drive and the other guy with gas mask is Left-Handed drive

Please do NOT open if you don't want any potential spoilers. You've been warned!
I compared the 'Plane crash TV Spot', Trailer 2 and Trailer 3, and found something interesting. Tell me what you think.

Is the guy in the tactical outfit a clone of JDW?

Same Outfit/Gear: https://imgur.com/a/jX18rCv
Same Glock 17 with threaded barrel: https://imgur.com/a/ieEm1Iz
Cable matching: https://imgur.com/a/hUMcZt4
Same skintone as JDW's stunt double??: https://imgur.com/a/FgDFZZy
Maybe JDW took the glock after he defeated the SWAT guy? It may not be a clone. If it is, then Nolan must have lost touch a bit because it's similar to The Prestige.

Also, if there's no time travelling and only inversion, then there shouldn't be a clone? Unless the blue-red light machine is a cloning machine?
Yeah, could be a possibility that JDW took his Glock. He could have possibly taken his SWAT outfit as well.

Lie or Hiding Truth is major theme all Nolan movies!

Memento - Leonard lies to himself
Insomnia - Will Domer lies about shooting partner
Batman Begins - Ra's al Ghul lies about his identity
TDK - Harvey lies, Gordan lies
TDKR - Batman hides truth (his escape)
Inception - Cobb lies to himself
Interstellar - Dr Brand's lies, Dr Mann lies
Dunkrik - Mr Dawson lies about George's death

In Tenet,
Pattinson lies to everyone as double agent and will get better of everyone. He will be an antihero and movie will have an open ending! :wtf:

Curiously, the guy that Domer killed in Insomnia is the guy who says 'Welcome to the afterlife' in Tenet. :lol: :lol:

Hey guys look at this. I think that the STONE is not just a random object to aim on.
TENET filming also took place in Ravello, Italy (Salerno) to be exact Amalfi Coast (the shots that we saw on the trailer.) I think that they are going there to take something important, not just by accident. And I think that in the sea maybe there is some object that they need to find (just speculations).

Seeing the big Stone and those shapes it has made me think, and to be honest those shapes look just like the Italy map to me, and exactly the whole Naples(Salerno) shore, so i think that the scenes that will take place there may be related to this stone, or maybe this stone will be the reason that they will go there.

Look at some pictures that i made as an example:
The stone with the map overlay: https://ibb.co/9qDRvDd
The map with the shape of the stone overlay: https://ibb.co/vqS66LB
What do you think?

I don't know if you're the same dude spamming that lol, I've seen that thing at least 4 times already. :lol:

The stone is just a stone, nothing to see there.

To my eyes, the rock doesn't resemble the contour of the map at all.

Anyone wishes
for a non-happy ending? If yes how would you see it play out?
I've always thought Interstellar should not have had Cooper survive the 4 dimensional space, and the ending was a little too tear-inducing and forced. I wish Nolan could go towards a darker direction at times.

IS that why the ending always induces my tears? Iove the ending of interstellar. I mean I don't think watching your child prepare to die is a very happy ending? I dunno. But lets say it is.

Following, memento, insomnia, and Dark Knight have quite the dark, down beat endings. So I don't think Nolan has a problem going dark.

The prestige, and Dunkirk have ambigious endings...am I the only one who reads those endings as being kind of hopeless?
I mean the prestige's characters have sacrificed a lot, and only 1/2Bale gets to go on...while literally everyone else has died. And Dunkirk is a bitter ending...the war is not over, it's just the tip of the iceberg.
So the only happy endings are Batman begins, Dark kight Rises, Inception? (depends on how you look at it), and Interstellar...so less than half of his filmography has happy endings.
