I love how Nolan isn’t tied down to a specific genre or style. He can spend two decades making some of the best action sequences in cinematic history and then suddenly make a movie comprised almost entirely of people talking in rooms just because he feels like it.

@jp3813 Ай бұрын

Well, he does have an identifiable style. He loves realism and non-linear storytelling. And there are many genres he has yet to dive into. I think the most versatile popular director is Steven Spielberg: Duel, Jaws, Close Encounters, Indiana Jones, ET, The Color Purple, Hook, Jurassic Park, Schindler's List, Saving Private Ryan, Minority Report, etc...

Ok so the reason The Dark Knight Rises feels so underwhelming is because originally Joker was going to have a massive role in it. Obviously after Heath Ledger’s death that plan was scrapped. Nolan had pretty much no passion for making a third film but was forced by the studio

@ReichLife Ай бұрын

Is there any meaningful proof of such claims? Information of the time was that there was no third movie seriously planned, and ending of Dark Knight rather reinforces that when compared with B.Begins with obvious Joker cliffhanger.

@CouchSpud91 Ай бұрын

@@ReichLife Yeah, it was my understanding WB kinda strong-armed Nolan into making Rises via his contract and so he kinda rushed Rises out hence it not being up to snuff with his other works. Tenet has no such excuse.

@ReichLife Ай бұрын

@@CouchSpud91 Same feeling here. While Ledger death more or less impacted Nolan's approach towards third movie, overall picture showcases there never actual desire to make one, with only contract and/or promises for funding of other projects which were to follow TDKR actually made Nolan direct third movie. And yeah, while I consider Nolan to be easily one of the best directors of our times, he is hardly perfect. Didn't even bother with Tenet since it didn't sound appealing to me, all while Dunkirk or Oppenheimer while great movies, painfully suffer from Nolan's stubborn obsession of avoiding CGI.

My dad came home from work while I was watching it, and came up to my room to see what all the noise was.

SCHAFF… I never comment on videos. Like ever. But I can honestly not thank you enough for this video. I have never even heard of half of these movies (an uncultured swine I know) but I have been following your content for awhile particularly because of your animated movie reviews/interest in musical theatre. I love them. I watch you like every single day. For the first time from watching your channel I actually checked out a movie I haven’t seen before after watching your review. I JUST finished The Prestige (literally like 3 minutes ago) and I immediately ran back to this video because of how GOOD and absolutely floored I was with the twist. It was just such a good film. And I would have never even known about it without watching your video that piqued my interest. Now I can’t wait to watch more movies on this list (I haven’t seen Interstellar or the Dark Knight trilogy yet). Keep making your amazing content you’re my favorite KZfaqr. And guys WATCH THE PRESTIGE you won’t regret it. Love ur content crab man :)

Memento is better than Tenet It should be the other way round, a movie with time reverals should be better than a movie where the story is just told in reverse But no, Nolan just had to mess it up. Memento should maybe have given him some exercise in how to make a reverse movie but he still fumbled with Tenet so hard. The fact that Memento is better than Tenet but people also talk about Tenet more.

@mynameisharry8739 Ай бұрын

Finally watched Memento last year and can't recommend it enough. It's one of those movies where the confusing plot structure is legit justified and actually makes sense for the movie. The movie playing in reverse order does such a good job at putting us in Leonard's shoes and helps us understand his short term memory loss. We're forced to experience his condition every time a new scene begins, because we have no idea what happened just happened before.

This video began with us having many similar takes (except with flipped opinions on rises vs begins) but the ending diverged quite a lot. Here's my list: 1. The Prestige 2. Interstellar 3. Oppenheimer 4. The Dark Knight 5. Memento 6. Inception 7. The Dark Knight Rises 8. Insomnia 9. Following 10. Tenet 11. Batman Begins 12. Dunkirk You mentioned in your video that you'd only seen The Prestige the one time for when you made this video, and i swear to you - you absolutely must watch it again. Every single time i watch it again i just get sooo blown away, its incredible. The best part is watching it with new people who havent seen it before, and talking about it afterwards. I will die on the hill that The Prestige is Nolan's best film, its just SO good and expertly crafted and i eat it up every time

It is so rare to have a story where everything just works together to make an unforgettable masterpiece.

Years later it indeed becomes apparent how good TDKR ending is. Mere comparison with other biggest batman series showcases that, when in Animated he turned out into old hermit with his crusade being basically meaningless, or Arkham games where ending was quite bitter sweet. Or comics with never ending story. Nolan conclusion indeed looks great.

Bane is a hired gun, basically does the same thing in the movie except stick around for the nuke since he doesn’t have a death wish. Batman picks up on this with his mannerisms, his words, as well as subtle things like having the intelligence to pull it of but not the information or motivation to do so. He figures out it’s Talia before her plan works, having Catwoman steal the key or something. There’s a twist villain as well as a subversion of it, connecting the first movie with Ras comments about family and how a older Batman is smarter and stronger. He subdues Bane before he can get away, and basically can clown on Talia by laying out her entire plan out to her and at the end tells her she’s already lost. Why would he relieve the entire plan if it wasn’t already stopped?

@theincredibledrl9684 Ай бұрын

I know a lot of people dislike it, but the dark knight rises is one my favourite batman movies and probably my favourite of the trilogy. I love Bane, genuinely one of the most unique versions of him, and I absolutely just can't stop quoting him. The message Batman learns to strive at your lowest. The genuine threat I felt seeing Gotham reduce to chaos. Yes it's flawed, but that made it memorable for me But that's my stupid opinion, you all can chastise me now;)

One of the things I will always respect about Christopher Nolan is always making everything as real as possible with little to none cgi, he even said in an interview that one of the reasons why he mostly uses practical effects rather than cgi is because it was more fun that way and watching some behind the scenes on how certain things were created made me respect him even more on how impressive he could do it as practical as possible.

@@cobiepal Nah, Trinity Test was horrible in Oppenheimer, or at least explosion itself. Wonderful built up, completely ruined by ludicrously underwhelming explosion. Compare it with Indiana Jones 4, Godzilla Minus One, etc. Those were nuclear detonations. In Oppenheimer? It blatantly looked like classic Hollywood fuel barrels going off hundred meters away rather than a nuke few kilometers away. Same problem with Dunkirk, where great and tense atmosphere is severely when you you think for a second and realize how desolate said supposed massive evacutation is. Again, compare with others movie, like Atonement which also featured Dunkirk event and there scale was far more on point. Or Stukas. Sound and tension wise they are perfect in Nolan movie. But then you blatantly see those are blatantly 1/10 the size of actual thing when contrasted with environment around them. This is what so bizarre about Nolan obsession. People dislike CGI when it clearly puts you out of experience. Nolan obsession about doing practicals is doing literally the same thing.
