Oppenheimer | 2024 Academy Award Winner for Best Picture and Best Director

They made a whole livestream where the trailer plays on a loop, counting down to each and every minute. This is the most extra thing I have ever seen and I love Papa Nolan for this

Universal going all in on the Papa Nolan train, harder than WB. I hope they keep that stream up until next July lmao.

lord forgive me but im about to go back to my old nolanite ways 

[Valonqar]

Ngl that livestream countdown is pretty based.

[MrPink]

That countdown goes to July 16th, so lines up with the Trinity Test.

[BoxOfficeZ]

I can't wait for all the spoken dialogue to take place during the atomic bomb testing. 

[Grebacio]

Great! We finally have a countdown for Barbie!

[Hatebox]

I like the vibe of the teaser but the cutting of coversational dialogue sounds really half-arsed.

 

Either way I'm definitely in the market for talky, non-mind-fuck Nolan film.

I thought that was a pretty boring teaser for such an amazing story, to be honest. I am still excited for this because the subject matter is so fascinating, and I'm hoping Nolan can handle real events that don't really need extra drama added to them. But, yeah, kinda of a meh teaser and not really impressed with the countdown gimmick. Come on. Really? That's the most creative thing you can come up with?  Fire pretty, though? Idk. I'm sure the movie itself will be quite good. Makes me want to go watch Fat Man and Little Boy again. 

[reddevil19]

I mean... not much to go on.

It will be interesting to see Nolan handle a more straight-forward drama, and I certainly hope the dialogue is a bit better than his usual stuff. I'm sure the performances will be good, but there's only so much you can do if the script isn't great.

 

Still a weird release date - as much as it's become a Nolan staple, this REALLY doesn't seem like a summer movie. Even as counter-programming to the other traditional blockbusters, it seems like a bad choice. Meh...

Nolan really needs a big star again. This is the third consecutive movie where early promotional material has no stars involved (yeah I think nobody outside film twitter really care about Robert Pattinson). Everything we have seen until now revolves around Cillian Murphy (??)... i mean literally who. Where are the Di Caprio, Bale and Mccounaghey?.  

 

They should already used Damon or RDJ to get more buzz.

I'll probably see this, but this isn't really the sort of project I'm looking for from Nolan.

[WorkingonaName]

Im seeing this for Roderick

I don't think there's any need to panic about having big stars in a year out teaser. The movie is about Oppenheimer, and Cillian is the lead. They can introduce the rest of the cast later. This is Nolan's most star studded cast in sometime and that'll get out in due time.  It's not like Bale was a big star when Nolan initially put him in Batman Begins either.

Cillian Murphy is in half (!!) of Nolan's filmography, he obviously has actors he likes and enjoys working with and it was kind of about time he gave him a lead to be honest.

Why is this man so extra lol

There are multiple sightings of a countdown billboard in LA too. The commitment is impressive I'll give them that.

I find it tragically hilarious and simultaneously morbid that Nolan and Universal are going to ask the world to embrace with open arms a story about the man who created the greatest destructive weapon known to humankind so far...and they are doing it with promo images of flames and nuclear oblivion.  Will the premiere be at Los Alamos?
