Date: August 7th, 2026 1:37 PM Author: the wife guy cinematic universe I loved memento as a kid although its really gimmicky in hindsight and I loved inception, I saw it in college with a azn girl. The batman movies were gay and he has yet to make a film that conveys any human emotion (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5890406&forum_id=2),#50051667) |

Date: August 7th, 2026 1:39 PM Author: Covid was a Hoax all his movies are gimmicky. i actually enjoyed interstellar but all the space-sorcery and magic was ridiculous and having people claim the "science" checked out and made it insufferable. i agree the batman movies were gay. the prestige was kind of enjoyable because of the acting but at the end just more magic and sorcery. all of his movies have stupid deus ex machina shit.

One of the few films isat through even though I rolled my eyes and checked my phone every 2 minutes |

Date: August 7th, 2026 1:46 PM Author: hung stud Someone here pointed out the other day that ever since he became a big deal, his movies have really suffered from bloat and shitty writing because nobody is able to tell him "this needs another 20 drafts" (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5890406&forum_id=2),#50051714) |

Date: August 7th, 2026 3:05 PM Author: the walter white of this generation (walt jr.) No, katie holmes (8.5/10) was the prosecutrix love interest in Batman Begins, and nolan tried to ludicrously replace her with maggie gyllenhaal (5.5/10) in The Dark Knight and say nothing as if no one would notice.
This should have been an early indicator that nolan views female characters as totally modular / "I have been told the Academy wants at least 2 women; here is my completed script with zero women; jon please go through and insert 2 girl characters." |

Date: August 7th, 2026 2:27 PM Author: hung stud 3rd movie (by far the absolute dogshittiest) ended with Batman saving Gotham by getting the nuclear bomb a few hundred yards away from the city so it detonated over the water. This was a 4 MEGATON device (= ~250+ Hiroshima bombs) ... It would have instantly vaporized everything within a couple miles and killed everyone in the city. That's aside from the absolutely atrocious Occupy Wall Street references throughout. And the fact that Bane's BIG REVEAL was a crumpled piece of paper showing two face was bad. |

Date: August 7th, 2026 3:01 PM Author: Covid was a Hoax it was a really awkward, disjointed combination of nuclear bombs, navy seals, and fistfights. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5890406&forum_id=2),#50051928) |

Date: August 7th, 2026 1:40 PM Author: the wife guy cinematic universe I feel like ill have to highly rate Ingmar Bergman and Kurosawa and Fellini even though I haven't watched much of their films its just what people seem to do online (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5890406&forum_id=2),#50051680) |

Date: August 7th, 2026 1:36 PM Author: Consuela The guy sucks ass and has nothing to say. He hides his mediocrity behind endless time cuts back and forth and extremely loud blaring music to confuse the audience, and shitty monochrome dark cinematography
Guy sucks and so does anyone who likes him
This is also why Jews like him and promote him and why he’s successful - because he has nothing to say |
|
Date: August 7th, 2026 1:38 PM Author: the wife guy cinematic universe This is a really fair assessment im coming around to. Although I love the blaring music for some reason it really satisfies my goy brain (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5890406&forum_id=2),#50051671) |

Date: August 7th, 2026 1:51 PM Author: the wife guy cinematic universe I find that kinda music very autistic its a lot of nordics and germans making it. I think nolan has the tism (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5890406&forum_id=2),#50051737) |

Michael Clayton is a masterpiece |

Spielberg apparently passed on the script because he was too stupid to understand the chronology |

Date: August 7th, 2026 1:48 PM Author: the wife guy cinematic universe He's a super nice dude from what I hear and is actually the reason a family member got a start in the business, and one of my neighbors worked with him too (but he's a liberal) but he hasn't made a good film in like 25 years? And his latest was one of the worst I have ever seen in my life. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5890406&forum_id=2),#50051726) |

Date: August 7th, 2026 5:59 PM Author: valar vettiri morghulis Good question, because he’s most like Spielberg. One of the greatest filmmaker/storytellers of all time and even an auteur in his own way. But I would really struggle to say he’s anywhere near Kurosawa or Kubrick.
