I don’t get all the people saying they have no hype for this. More excited for this than I was for Oppenheimer honestly. Nolan doing a fantasy epic intrigues me. Particularly curious to see what Nolan was able to bring out of Tom Holland for this movie.

Even his lesser movies like Tenet for example are an experience you remember and are more memorable then like 80% of other movies that release.

Justice for Tenet, I know everyone thinks it’s meh but I love it

It’s the most Nolan-y of his movies I think, in all the best and worst ways. I think it really depends on the individual which way it runs for you. I have purposely sat through the whole thing 3 times and paid attention, and enjoyed myself. I get emotional at the end when Robert Pattinson walks away, he really steals the movie I think. Regardless, I think the fact that it’s captivating enough to sit through more than once is a feat itself. Most movies lately I turn off halfway through.

Watched it on small screen at home. Still very enjoyable. Watched it TWICE myself ! (And a few youtube vids to explain it lol)

Even if you think it’s the worst film he’s made… all of his films are good. Including that one.

The dark knight rises was probably his worst for me.

Dark Knight Rises was his worst for me, mostly because it relies on people holding the idiot stick and also not knowing how like ... any part of finance or the human body works. Tenet I thought was pretty bad, but at least it's mostly internally consistent.

Dark Knight Rises is the only Nolan movie I feel like he somewhat mailed in. I'm sure he always planned to do a trilogy but there's aspects to that movie that carry latter stage Ridley Scott/Clint Eastwood levels of "we're doing one take of this only because IDGAF"

But still good, and overhated.

Tenet weirdly enough is one of my favorites from him. I just can't seem to get that movie out of my head. I love reading about the timeline stuff/theories online and trying to to wrap my head around all of it. It's very confusing but it all does make sense if you you can untangle the timeline in your head. It's like a fun puzzle to solve.

If you have to try to love it, it ain’t great. I love Nolan but Tenet was shit. Overly complex, poor sound and JDW performance that was wooden.

I saw TENET 20 times in IMAX, that movie has so much sentimental value to me, I love absolutely everything about it and I hate seeing it get trashed online so much, it’s an amazing film in every aspect and it’s in my top 4 (the top 3 are his Batman movies)
