Tenet (Christopher Nolan, September 3, 2020) Movie • Page 62

Watched this last night. Thought it was great, but my head hurts trying to follow the time line.

 

The hot sauce quip really just continues to puzzle me. How could so many people so great at their respective jobs allow that to make the final cut? A real brain buster for me.


You "ordered" your hot sauce? Like, placed an order for it? as a meal? side?
Would you actually wait an hour for hot sauce? Why? 10 minutes max. maybe 15
How cold is your presumably hot/warm entree? You've waited an hour for a condiment.
"its just a fun cool little protag catchphrase lol chill out" swap a food out, anything and maybe yes ok its less egregious.
You mean to tell me astrophysicists and molecular-entropy structure consultants were utilized in making of this film but, somehow this line wasn't edited out in post production?

really makes you think

 

I mean he probably should have said "I asked for some hot sauce an hour ago" but, also, who cares lol

 

I saw a thing where JDW said he improvised the line and it made Nolan laugh so he kept it in. That's about all there is to it

 

It's a funny line, I truly don't understand how so many people have managed to take such intense issue with it

 

We need a tounge-in-cheek post indicator for chorus.fm

 

I feel like Tenet is going to be to Nolan's filmography what King of Limbs is to Radiohead's discography.

That is to say, it's impressive, but too abstract and feels pretty inconsequential stacked up against the rest of his work.

 

Except king of limbs is good

 

I love King of Limbs

 

lucas, come now

 

I opened this thread knowing full well what would face me.

 

I also think this movie will be very consequential for nolan seemed like bad optics all around I doubt he's gonna be getting the same amount of money and or freedom for his next film

 

I think he’ll be just fine

 

I’ll take that bet.

 

Damn if it was opening in like May I’d definitely be excited to go see it since I’ll be vaccinated by then

 

PSA for anyone who hasn’t seen this yet: it’s on Amazon Prime right now

 

Might screen the bluray of this tonight. Is it true this is more nonsense than puzzle compared to Nolan's other puzzle movies? Anyone have tips as far as stuff I should know/prepare for before watching?

 

Don’t expect anything to make sense

 

For sure one of his weaker films

 

Love prepping to watch a movie like prepping for the SAT

 

Considering buying the 4K Ultra Blu-Ray of this simply because my PS5 can play those discs and if nothing else this nonsense movie looks pretty cool

 

I personally think the confusion is overblown, lol. Though, depending on your sound situation, subtitles help a lot.

 

all you need to know is that we live in a twilight world

 

It’s an incredibly stupid movie that spends almost its entire runtime explaining itself to you only for you to still not understand what is going on
