You guys are so lucky....wish they would re open cinemas already in Illinois at least. I want to watch all of Nolan's films again in IMAX.

Cases rose a bit sharply as soon as we went into phase 4. But there isn't a single IMAX theater open.

The Making Of book confirms that the opera house sequence is the opening of the film, I wonder if there’s more to the sequence of if is indeed the opening of the film as is. Not a lot of exposition in the prologue.

I think so because right after JDW says “let’s get him to the rally point” it immediately cuts to them at the rally point, but the second trailer showed footage of JDW and the VIP running across the seats so I imagine the final version will be extended a bit to show JDW escorting the VIP to the rally point instead of the immediate cut to it that we saw.

If I had to guess, I'd say this won't be the case because, TENET, the word itself, is a palindrome. Perhaps the most popular fan theory is that the film will therefore have a palindromic structure; we will see that shot at the end of the film...
...when the story focuses on JDW near the end of his inversion as he rescues himself by reverse shooting the guy in the opera house

The scene numbers of the pictures that have been released have confirmed that it is the beginning.

The prologue could use a bit of work showing the terrorists fighting the police. I feel that part is a bit underwhelming. I know both parties are in
cahoots
but there's some lack of firepower there.
