      I liked Tenet, but I also made a conscious decision not to think about the plot too hard and just accept it’s vision of it’s own universe.

      I feel like Nolan movies aren’t really about the plot so much as the conceptual notions and visual spectacle. They are almost impressionistic, the plot is just a framing device for everything else.

      I kinda think Nolan knows this and gives you a hint by burying the dialog in the mix, your really not supposed to care about the story that much.

        I made the mistake to watch Interstellar with my brain switched on because people were hyping the super-accurate science so much. I left so angry because the movie is so fucking dumb. Sure, the black hole was fun. But the 5 seconds it’s on screen is not enough to carry the rest of the stupid as fuck plot.

          So, I like Interstellar for what it is, but I’ve also made a fun game of it.

          I like to ask people if they can name Cooper’s son. Most people don’t even remember he was in the movie.

          It’s kind of a reverse situation of Jake Sully being the only name I can remember from Avatar.

      I should rewatch Tenet. I think I liked it, and I see criticism all over the internet recently.

        Don’t be afraid to like stuff. The internet is often diametrically opposed to liking stuff, because SOMEONE doesn’t like it, and they’re going to be the loudest voice.

      I didn’t understand Tenet.

      As in, i couldn’t hear/make out what they where whispering to each other the whole time.

        That’s because according to Christopher Nolan, the audio system in your home cinema setup or local cinema setup isn’t worthy. He took audiophile snobbery to the next level. I love most of his films, but he needs to allow the sound engineers to master the audio so that it works for everyone.
