How Dunkirk's current audience score of 84% compares to other Nolan films:
Interstellar: 88% on the first Tuesday (currently sits at 85%)
TDKR: 94% on the first Saturday (currently sits at 90%; The fanboys probably contributed A LOT to this
)
Inception: 93% on the second Saturday (currently sits at 91%)
TDK: 89% on opening day (currently sits at 94%)
Prestige: 90% two weeks after release (currently sits at 92%)
BB: 94% 3 days after release (currently sits at 94%)
How on earth do you remember all those percentages from so far back?

Captain Marvel's up, takes place in the early '90s and has Nick Fury (with two eyes. :0). Skrulls are the bad guys.

Scorching hot take incoming.
The more I grow up, the more I come to despise Robert Zemeckis, not as a filmmaker (I love Beowulf for hence) but the sneaky way he inserts propaganda and shape young people's subconscious in guise of entertainment in his most infamous family friendly fares. BTTF trilogy is absolutely horrendous in that regard, it goes way much beyond Reaganian values vessel. It's actually a sharp revisionist trilogy whitewashing the history of USA into an Americana myth to symbolize the greatness of America (minus genocides and slavery because History-rewriting-machine Delorean makes them magically disappear out of America's History). It's the Birth Of The Nation of the eighties (Eisenstein would be proud too as a statement of cinema's power to shape collective subconscious by forging symbols to push a collective narrative for patriotic sake) and people are totally oblivious because it is so malicious in intent and imagery to fly under that political analysis radar.(Because that's too lame to analyse a masterpiece of pop culture like BTTF "STFU Don't ruin my mindless popcorn entertainment, you goddamn SJW!". No, BTTF is not mindless, that's what makes it even more pervasive on our collective psyche, growing up thinking it was so awesome then realize all the socio-political subtext realizing I could never be Marty McFly and there's a frightening reason why. (How many times do I have to suffer that dumb hipster's joke that Marty McFly invented rock'n roll in 1955 to paint Chuck Berry as a mere sideliner extra of the genre he helped to pioneer?) In a country proned to nostalgia as a culture, the effect can be twisted.
Forrest Gump is no coincidence. Zemeckis is really fascinated by the concept of writing and re-writing History and America's love of creating and erasing narratives to suit and enforce its own delusion as the greatest nation on Earth overcompensating the fact that it doesn't have thousand years worth of history like other civilizations.(Zemeckis choice of re-adapting Beowulf makes total sense in that thematic regard, no coincidence). Moreover, I'd say a lot of this so called innocuous 80's classics fall prey to that analysis. It's funny people can see all the political text about American society in John Carpenter's and Paul Verhoeven's movies but can't in Spielberg/Zemeckis/Lucas OT movies because they can't be, they're just harmless "fun".(Joe Dante's movies are full of it too).
Art and Entertainment is political and the fallacy is to think entertainment is neutral, especially Hollywood entertainment (which has never been neutral since its inception, it's actually one of its purpose as conservatives lament and whine about the "liberal agenda" pushed onto them today, they actually lament when Hollywood pushed a conservative agenda as neutral and statu quo that was pushed onto everyone in the fantasized days of Yore. Remember Maccarthysm and Code Hays). Nothing one chooses to present exist in a vacuum whether you like or not in your absolute pseudo-hip hatred of "thinkpiece".

Long story short. Flash screws up the timeline, creates a messed up universe, fixes it, then creates a better universe.
So why are people making "lmao" jokes dissing it? It sounds like an interesting story.

Do you really want to know the plot after the first trailer?
I at least want a decent understanding on what's going to happen outside of the dude going into some virtual reality place.

"The Iron Giant is a real major player in this story," says Spielberg!
I like the music choice, but the trailer really didn't sell me on the story or anything. I straight up have no idea what the plot's about.

Isn't the Tomb Raider trailer supposed to drop st comic-con? That's all I'm waiting for
I think the WB panel is only DC, Ready Player One and Blade Runner, though I could be wrong.

For what it's worth, I've also seen The Big Sick. I liked it quite a bit but I don't know if I'd consider it a favorite, but a rewatch could change my mind.
