I, too, can make numbers up and say it would have made 50% more with empty screen space instead of Barbie.

We can obviously say it was a special circumstance, but we can't even begin to assess the actual impact on either film.

People like to conveniently forget Nolan is one of the highest grossing directors out there pre-Oppenheimer.

Judgement. use judgement.

What a great movie, 3 hours felt like 2 minutes, sound design is on point.  probably the best drama movie I've seen

Nolan said he is probably making something less nihilistic . May be another thriller or drama. I hope he has a strong central female lead in the next one. While Blunt was great, her role was relatively small. Even a female driven movie would be something new from Nolan though I am not holding my breadth on the same. 

 

He also handled criticism from Spike lee in a perfect way.

Anyone remember when it was rumored that Nolan’s 2020 film would be a romantic thriller before we knew anything about it?

I want Nolan to make a HUGE scaled flashback D-DAY film centered around Eisenhower as he realizes the role he played in the military industrial complex. 

 

Tom Hanks of Eisenhower. Memorial Day 2026.

You know what would be the best movie news to end the year- Christopher Nolan signs to  write and direct  Bond  26 and he will be given final cut and complete control. A man can dream can't he. Broccoli and Wilson will never do it though of course.

I dont think he is making another period movie. Its going to be something else. I am sure something will come out in next 6 months.

Probably more like a year. Based on the production timeline of his previous films, we should get the an official announcement of his next film late next year

I am a surprised by amount of push Nolan and Cast are doing it at this point. I dont think its required for HV/Digital sales and so this is probably pushing for awards at this point.

Of course, you don't direct/star in a movie like Oppenheimer without awards crossing your mind here and there. Nolan was doing interviews/Q&As the whole time since the strike and now the actors can join in. I saw some Oppenheimer stans elsewhere being all, "Cillian is too pure to campaign!" and I was thinking, sure Jan. Many kinds of movies have campaigns, not just the so-called dreaded "Oscar bait". They want to go to these awards shows and win, not just spend weeks clapping politely for someone else.

RDJ is a showman for sure. That is why he is impossible to replace if you build something around him. "Oppenhomies" whatsapp group is something new for sure.

I also see a lot people saying Cillian doesn't have an edge because he won't campaign. I don't even see how that's the narrative. I mean he went on the press tour with all his costars and even did some interviews on his own. Like in the video, he will be campaigning with his costars most of the time, he's a team player so he will be fine.

“I’ve been sitting at home… eating cheese.” That's the kind of line that gets casual memes going and will maintain Murphy at the forefront of the discussion. I don't think he'll win, but he is absolutely in the top 3 faves and he WILL campaign.

‘Oppenheimer’s IMAX Box Office Numbers Blew Christopher Nolan’s Mind

"One of the things that we got a very visible response to was the theatrical presentation, the IMAX presentation in particular, using film and using film prints that went out there into the world. Those screens, in particular, I mean, we broke the all-time record of the Chinese with the print we had there. I think, as of last weekend, we became the third highest-grossing IMAX film in America after Star Wars and Avatar. I mean, for a film about J. Robert Oppenheimer, it was extraordinary."

The black list for supporting Palestine is already lifting. Everyone knows Israel's response has been reckless.

Not sure if I can think of a single nation in human history with the power to do so that would have had a less reckless response.
