Florence Pugh is 27. Basically a child.

 

Wildly irresponsible on Nolan's part if the phrase "different stages of life" isn't repeated every time they're together.

But Oppenheimer hasn't got a release date in China and Barbie is doing even worse there in China.

well, I did'nt say MI:DR won't win, its just it won't win by a mile

I think Barbie is the favorite despite China. It will have a big lead domestic and will be strong in several markets

Hopefully he can insert a 10 minute exposition to iron things out for us all.

What they need to do is have a flashing sign whenever the two characters interact that says, "the filmmakers don't support relationships with such differential power dynamics such as the one presented here."

She dated Zach Braff for three years. Hopefully she isn’t too scarred by this experience.

Have it plastered on the cinema door, next to the "this film does contain VFX" sign.

Delaying a film is a new way of blocking it's release in Middle East. Great for Oppenheimer that Universal manage to bypass. Now, Left with two critical market - China &Japan.

You can hang dong in the Middle East as long as it’s of the straight variety.

From RDJ’s Instagram account - the big names are starting to promote the movie. Paris premiere coming up.

Nolan is in a league of its own. Oppenheimer will open >50 on Nolan's name alone.

I don’t know if that’s all on his name alone. I feel like Barbie has done Oppenheimer a huge favour in terms of endless free marketing.

Nolan's power with urban millennials in indeed insane, it is akin to Speilberg's pull with middle America for people who remember the 1980s and 1990s.  

 

I absolutely think Barbie is helping here too. This is an R Rated, 3 hour long drama. If it opens to $50m, that is incredible. Nolan should do a serious Pearl Harbor take for his next film then - that would double whatever Oppenheimer does

I think he should give WWII a rest after this.

Did he actually watch the movies or is he just commenting based on his assumptions.

I am really hoping Oppenheimer would stay in IMAX longer in Canada. I have a surgery coming up in a few days, nothing serious, but I don't think I can stand sitting in the theatres for 3 hours within a month of the surgery.

IIRC they have IMAX on lock for 3 weeks, so you should probably just about make it?

It applies to Canadian IMAX too? I thought it only applies to the US. Then I will try to catch the last day when presales open.

 

I have been pretty busy for the past 7 years or so that I barely watch movies in the theatres anymore. I usually catch them up on the plane because I have been flying over 15+ times per month. Nolan's movies are the only ones that I never missed, even during COVID. Really hoping I won't miss watching it on IMAX.
