its just that to me two things wich Nolan cares very much about seem to converge, usage of Film as a medium and its preservation, both as an artistic medium and as archival material, and real atomic test footage, cant get more real than that as footage goes, but who knows maybe that extensive digital work needed is the time it takes to accurately simulate a realistic atomic bomb, i bet he plans to use very strong lights to do as much a he can practically, perhaps even practical shockwave effects somehowTeddyBlass wrote: ↑September 15th, 2021, 8:32 pmI wouldn’t be so quick to assume what constitutes a Nolan cinematic experience.

I’m gonna have to rewatch it, I’ve only seen Interstellar 2 or 3 times and it’s been a few yearsNicolaslabra wrote: ↑September 16th, 2021, 1:19 amat the start, the footage of people talking about the dust storms.KEM wrote: ↑September 16th, 2021, 12:54 amWhere at?

It's cool, he recreates the esthetic of the documentary with Ellen Burstyn, so the other talking heads are from "The Dust Bowl", but she isn't but looks like it. It repurposes actual accounts and then places Interstellar into a very tangible reality. It's like how the Kieve Opera house sequence in Tenet is a direct reference to a real-life terrorist situation, and Dunkirk being filmed at Dunkirk, in the exact same spot as the evacuation.KEM wrote: ↑September 16th, 2021, 1:23 amI’m gonna have to rewatch it, I’ve only seen Interstellar 2 or 3 times and it’s been a few yearsNicolaslabra wrote: ↑September 16th, 2021, 1:19 amat the start, the footage of people talking about the dust storms.

I just watched a video on YouTube and now I remember, yeah that always seemed very out of place to me, probably why I had completely forgotten about itA Borges man wrote: ↑September 16th, 2021, 2:10 amIt's cool, he recreates the esthetic of the documentary with Ellen Burstyn, so the other talking heads are from "The Dust Bowl", but she isn't but looks like it.

And it’ll be shot in IMAX of course, so excited!!
I hope that this being a biopic and not an action film, that the IMAX scenes can have a precise logic behind their usage, instead of his usual style of squeezing in as much IMAX footage in as possible by constantly shifting the aspect ratio.
Out of his films The Dark Knight comes the closest to that. There is also Star Trek Into Darkness (all outdoor scenes are IMAX, all indoor scenes non-IMAX), and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (scenes inside the death arena are IMAX).

Glad Hoyte is back!
It’ll be interesting to see how they’ll use IMAX on this. They push the format and innovate with every movie they make. It’ll be amazing no doubt.
