I think you mean Nolan is no Brad Bird

Yup, at least Nolan's third acts make sense. And also has directed more than one good live action movie. Also, Nolan never directed anything remotely as bad as Tomorrowland.

Just goes to show you, Brad Bird is no Nolan

 

Indeed. Had Nolan made it, Monaghan would surely be dead. It is the law of Nolan. And Michael Caine would have had Tom Wilkinson's role.

Remember that ill conceived plotline about Hawkeye failing to protect Michelle Monaghan? Tele hoped and prayed it was true, but then Hunt set him up.

 

Tele was so devastated, wasn't he?

Ghost Protocol > anything Nolan's done that I've seen (Ignore the fact that Inter stellar is second while Ghost Protocol is fourth in my top films of the half decade list,)

Uhhhh, let's put MI5 at 20.5 as of 7:20 EST!

haven't look proper but  something around 20m mark sounds about right

Your screen name is Ethan Hunt so I'm going to give you a pass for this post.

Nolan's version of Tomorrowland wouldn't have had a weird romance between George Clooney and a 12 year old robot.

Nolans version of Tomorrowland wouldn't have been written by Damon Lindelof.

I'm starting a Brad Bird support group equivalent to the Nolanites. They can't kick me out for not having seen Tomorrowland yet because I'm the creator

But it would've been written by David S Goyer, so

Story by David Goyer

 

Written by Jonathan and Christopher Nolan.

 

Significant difference.

Fair point.

You win this round...don't let it go to your head.

Does having both Raiders and Ghost Protocol in my top 5 all time balance out?

[Fancyarcher]

Nolan's Tomorrowland would have been written by him and Jonathan Nolan.

Depends on what the other 3 are...

His constant attacking of people who don't agree that GP is amazing, is really annoying.

Evangelize brother.

I don't even agree with your OTT praise, but heck, I admire a little enthusiasm.
