My favorite part was when he said "its oppenheimen time" and then the opped all over everyone
He also shouted later on "Oppenheimer style" then proceeded to op op op op on everyone gangnam style.
Oppenheimer? I hardly knew her!
Open... hymen time? Giggity.
Mine was when he broke his openheiman riding a horse. Oh, and how he avoided a nuclear blast by hiding in a refrigerator.
I thought intercutting the bombing of Hiroshima with THAT sex scene was done as tastefully as it could have been.
Stupid question.
Is the movie actually understandable without subtitles?
The plot and story for Tenet was right up my alley, but my inability to understand the dialog frustrated the crap out of me - and I have a pretty solid home audio setup.
Not a stupid question. A lot of Nolan movies are like that.
After having seen it, there are some scenes where it is difficult to follow the dialog which I'm sure is intentional. I haven't seen Tenet but I think Oppenheimer is not as bad in this regard, in part because there's less exposition -- this is all based on real events in the real world and there aren't a lot of mechanics to have to explain, and also because the story isn't as plot-driven as many of Nolan's thrillers. No MacGuffins, no car chases, shootouts or real twists; it's more about the man, his relationships and how his career plays out. That said, for example there is a scene where he's talking to his wife outdoors, it's windy and they're not facing camera and the fact that I couldn't follow what they were saying did take me out... instead of being engaged in the conversation I was more aware I was sitting there watching Chris Nolan dialogue, waiting for it to be over.
Tenet was pretty bad even when there wasn’t any action.
It's perfectly understandable from an audio perspective, what makes it hard to follow is continually jumping around in time frames.
Also what I want to know before I ever go see a nolan movie in the cinema again.
I honestly felt like a 90 year old trying to listen to Tenet.
just watched it in a barbenheimer combo. the dialogue wasn't as clear as in barbie, but much better than tenet! So still 'nolany' dialogue, but well watchable without subtitles.
Saw it last night. Subtitles would have been nice. I admit I don’t have the best hearing though.
i'm planning on getting a caption reciever thing - hopefully they aren't all rented out
shit, will there be a line?
Caption receiver?
The trailer was very audible in the theater. Not sure if the movie mix would be the same though
He's got that Half-Life G-Man look on his face.
Which one inspired which I wonder?
It's a well known fact that Oppenheimer was based on G Man, and the government got the idea for Los Alamos from Black Mesa
I really liked the call back to Breaking Bad when he's like: " Say my name! Say it! Say it! Damn right I'm Oppenheimer"
Another instance with bad time stamps
Yeah how did this happen
Unfortunately I will see only in late August. In my country, Italy, they decided to don’t barbenheimer.
Time for another riot
I get to see this tomorrow night on a massive screen and I'm legit excited. I'm a Nolan fan and I love historical films/shows so that's a extra bonus.💃🏻
i love talky dramas and history, so excited. tomorrow at 5pm imax lfg
