Christopher Nolan didn't want orchestra music in the score for The Odyssey because orchestra music didn't exist in ancient Greece. Yet he casts brown people and almost no ethnic greeks. How can you justify not using an orchestra for a score because of historical accuracy but cast it for the modern day? I know it's two days and two Odyssey posts, I'll stop I promise.

This Nolan movie is going to be doa, I find it to be an compete joke that hopefully ends that overated bastard's career.

Nolan's best work is well behind him. Memento is great, The Prestige is great, and that's about it.
I was a huge fan, but you're right. Dunkirk was alright, but then he lost it with Tenet. Inception absolutely makes sense and is amazing, but Tenet is an illogical mess on so many levels. I wanted to defend him, but I couldn't. Nolan really has lost the plot.
Agreed, I'm sick of people who like to bring up the dark knight. That movie was based off the Batman ip to begin with and itself was carried by Heath Ledger. Even though I don't care about Batman, I'll say Tim Burton had a better vision with his movies
