Christopher Nolan movies
January 7, 2016 at 10:24 am
Everything that man touch is gold. Inception is one of my all time favorite movies. It has everything - an original plot, out of the world story telling - everything. Other movies I loved were The Prestige, Interstellar, The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises.
Quote: His nine films have grossed over US$4.2 billion worldwide and garnered a total of 26 Oscar nominations and seven awards.
Needless to say, I'm a huge fan. I also got wind of this new movie he's working on and I'm very excited. He always delivers top movies and I'm thrilled.
I wonder if there are other Nolan fans here? If so, it would be awesome to discuss his movies!

I'm not a fan, but I'd be up for talking about his films.

Interstellar has absolutely great things, but also annoying flaws... What's up with the matt damon character? That's just pointless drama insertion

I've enjoyed the movies of his that I've seen. The Dark Knight is the best comic book, in my opinion.
Did you know someone bought the rights to Memento and plans to remake it? I'm not sure what to think about that. It doesn't seem like a movie you could really remake.

WOT ? it was amazing, and it makes so much sense(have you seen the movie "cast away" ?), the movie was so much scientific, he had to add some human emotions in the movie.

I just watched that movie a week a go, and it is amazing. I'm so much up for a remake. Remember Sammy Jankis ?

I can watch Nolan's films, they have a way of keeping my attention for the duration, he keeps a fast, balanced and emotionally charged pace which I think is his strength, however upon reflection on each of the films of his that I've seen, I don't feel like there's anything substantive to the stories themselves; Inception was set in the realm of imagination and emotion where literally anything can happen, and settled for guys in suits with guns; Dark Knight was the lucky middle child in a string of disconnected, illogical movies about a guy in a Batman costume.

PRO TIP: Batman should not be the hilarious comic relief in a Batman movie.

Memento is one of my absolute favorite movies.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
