It struck me watching Christopher Nolan’s masterful three-hour epic telling of the story of J. Robert Oppenheimer, long labeled the Father of the Atomic Bomb, that this is a period piece with…
My favorite part was when he said “its oppenheimen time” and then the opped all over everyone
He also shouted later on “Oppenheimer style” then proceeded to op op op op on everyone gangnam style.
Open… hymen time? Giggity.
Mine was when he broke his openheiman riding a horse. Oh, and how he avoided a nuclear blast by hiding in a refrigerator.
I thought intercutting the bombing of Hiroshima with THAT sex scene was really done as tastefully as it could have been.
Can’t tell if this is a shitpost or not
The most moving scene is him finding out about the bombings right after: “Mr. Oppenheimer, you’re not gonna believe what they used your JapDestroyer 5000 for! It’s terrible!”
Oppenheimer: This guy fucks.
I messed up the gif, but just imagine silicon valley: “This guy fucks”.
Stupid question.
Is the movie actually understandable without subtitles?
The plot and story for Tenet was right up my alley, but my inability to understand the dialog frustrated the crap out of me - and I have a pretty solid home audio setup.
Also what I want to know before I ever go see a nolan movie in the cinema again.
I honestly felt like a 90 year old trying to listen to Tenet.
Not a stupid question. A lot of Nolan movies are like that.
i’m planning on getting a caption reciever thing - hopefully they aren’t all rented out
shit, will there be a line?
The trailer was very audible in the theater. Not sure if the movie mix would be the same though
Oppenheimer was a brilliant physicist. Born-Oppenheimer approximation, incredible contributions to quantum and nuclear physics. Simply an incredible guy. He has my deepest respect
I think it’s funny that the film openheimer is very similar to a recently made Chinese film about Their atomic bomb father
I ain’t no defense analyst but I think this film is fed funded. I don’t care man whatever it takes to get a history movie
Another instance with bad time stamps
Yeah how did this happen
He’s got that Half-Life G-Man look on his face.
Which one inspired which I wonder?
The ending of the NY times review stuck out at me: “François Truffaut once wrote that “war films, even pacifist, even the best, willingly or not, glorify war and render it in some way attractive.” This, I think, gets at why Nolan refuses to show the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, world-defining events that eventually killed an estimated 100,000 to upward of 200,000 souls.”
Nah, that ain’t why. It’s because western audiences aren’t ready to deal with the horror these things cause. That’s it. Or, to put it another way, they’re Chicken Shit.
I get to see this tomorrow night on a massive screen and I’m legit excited. I’m a Nolan fan and I love historical films/shows so that’s a extra bonus.💃🏻
i love talky dramas and history, so excited. tomorrow at 5pm imax lfg
I really liked the call back to Breaking Bad when he’s like: " Say my name! Say it! Say it! Damn right I’m Oppenheimer"
I hope it does well at the box office, ‘cause you know what everyone will say if it doesn’t… it stinks!
Unfortunately I will see only in late August. In my country, Italy, they decided to don’t barbenheimer.
Time for another riot
