Slangster liked Tim's post in the thread Movie Oppenheimer (Christopher Nolan, July 21, 2023).
Also. Sitting in the theater, seeing that sequence in context, I did think it was incredibly awesome/awful. Like, watching Oppenheimer and company watch the bomb, and the way it abstractly depicted the explosion… I felt the impact. And also the impact of the aftermath; the scene of Oppenheimer giving his speech intercut with the flashes and melting faces was so heavy.

Imagine making a 3 hour cinematic masterpiece and the boom scene is just a little "whoopsie" mistake he made and shrugged his shoulders at

Slangster liked Nathan's post in the thread Movie Oppenheimer (Christopher Nolan, July 21, 2023).
It’s a film based on a book called American Prometheus, directly calling on the ancient story of man who stole fire from the Gods, and the film’s use of real practical fire in that moment goes a long way thematically/visually, calling to the Prometheus myth in a way that something made with CGI or closer to what we’re used to seeing in depictions of atom bomb explosions wouldn’t have. What are you looking for out of a CGI or more “realistic” explosion? Is there any way that a sense of subverting an audience’s expectations for that moment says something that aligns with the film’s overall messaging about expectations in our pursuit of something vs the real, actual consequences?

it's the same thing of people making playlists like "here is how I fixed this album" you just simply don't know better than Christopher Nolan about making a setpiece in a massive blockbuster lol. stop getting high off your own supply.

Yeah their last 2 are absolute all timers for me. They’ve been completely radio silent for so long. I hope they’re not done.

Also don't mean to bump the thread, but goddammit I love this band. Put them on for the first time in a long time, while working overtime to finish projects before summer holiday, coffee in hand, watching the rain outside. And I'm literally crying my eyes out no matter what song I put on. Complete happy emotional breakdown in a way I haven't experienced in a loooong time. I really hope they manage to continue, and release something new this fall or next year.

Slangster replied to the thread The Odyssey (Christopher Nolan, July 17th 2026).
I mean, yeah. It’s a teaser in the traditional sense of the term. They’re not going to drop a full trailer a year before the film’s release. But everything looks good and I can tell that Bernthal is going to crush his role.
