    I look forward to the inevitable flame war over the film, and Nolan's relative genius :D

    I look forward to a film I will likely find entertaining.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,753 ✭✭✭✭expectationlost


    what worth going to see in the cinema in the meantime?


  • Registered Users Posts: 60,280 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    So only a hundred fifty cinemas around the world will be able to show it in it's full IMAX splender.

    Could be the Howard Hughes film he wrote years ago. It was abandoned because of Scorsese's film, but Nolan has repeatedly said he plans to make it eventually. However, as a historical film involving planes it might be too similar to his last film.

    Around the time of TDK Emma Thomas said he was interested in doing a Jaws-style horror film and a western.

    Hmmm, Jaws style eh; Christopher Nolan does a Creature Feature. That'd be something to see and then some.

    It would be hilarious if they just marketed it as the next Christopher Nolan film, no info released at all about what is it or what it's about, not even a title.

    They wouldn't dare - his films are too expensive to risk an underwhelming box office take - but it'd be refreshing all right.

    You saw it here first :)

    Interesting. I hope they do an Inception though and keep it well under wraps until at least Feb 2020 - No teasers, no trailers. Nothing. Just confirm that Cillian Murphy, Michael Caine and Jessica Chastain are in it and Hanz Zimmer is busy writing his music and that it's a head-melter (In the best possible way)

    This is starting to roll - JD Washington, Elizabeth Debicki and Robert Pattison all cast or circling confirmation.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,957 ✭✭✭✭bnt


    Pattinson says he's been sworn to secrecy about the script:
    I got locked in a room to read the script – I don't have it myself. I've been a little wary of doing big movies for years and years, but there's just something about Chris Nolan's stuff. He seems like the only director now who can do what is essentially a very personal, independent movie that has huge scale. I read the script and it's unreal.

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    Variety describes it as an "action epic evolving from the world of international espionage". It's being shot in 7 countries.

    Also, two notable Nolan regulars are sitting this one out:

    - No Zimmer. Swedish composter Ludwig Göransson, best known for Creed and Black Panther, is doing the score. I don't recall either score. Are they good?

    - No Lee Smith, who has edited every Nolan film since Begins. Lee is being replaced by Jennifer Lame, who is best known for her work with Noah Baumbach and other not exactly action heavy films.

    Nolan is presumedly going for something very different stylistically with this one.

    So a Bond by any other name? Not like his name hasn't been bandied about as a popular choice in the past.

    Could be. Nolan doing an actual Bond film was never going to happen, so I'll be glad if he's doing his own take on it without the baggage and enforced mediocrity of the franchise itself.

    Oooooh. This is gonna be great.

    Ludwig won the original score Oscar for Black Panther (not sure if that is good or bad :D)

    Elizabeth Debicki has some form in "the world of international espionage": she was the baddie Victoria Vinciguerra in The Man From U.N.C.L.E. a few years ago. I wonder whether she's the baddie here too? :p

    This is Nolan so dead wife would be a safer bet. :p

    Nolan doesn't have much of a track record with female leads, but she and Pattinson are the leads here, so it could be that Nolan is looking to change things up. The score will be by Ludwig Göransson, not Hans Zimmer.

    So... it's about the reversal of time.

    Time travel baby.

    Why did that guy reverse the trailer? That's not how it was shown, as evidenced by other links to the original video on Twitter... I'm just not sure what the point of reversing it was.
