    How dare you use subtitles? Nolan intended for the dialogue to be so badly recorded and mixed that you can’t understand a damn thing. Those godawful fight scenes and terrible choreography? It was meant to be there! Those shitty mistakes and errors left on the screen add flavour!

      I was a movie theatre projectionist when that movie came out.

      It was miserable - people complained about the mixing, and it also blew out our speakers in a couple of auditoriums.

      And the ending is such a weird stupid ass pull. It’s reminds me of Bioshock Infinite - physics is magic that we can to deus ex machina our way out of this half thought out plot.

        Anyone who says his Batman movies are perfect, need to go back and watch the fight choreography on screen and accept that the Batman voice is absurd. I mean tdk is a great movie, but it’s a comic book movie that’s ashamed of the source material and tries to make it “real” to compensate

          Interstellar gets worse and worse with age too. I’m sure this is tired ground, but the movie is fucking awful.

          It introduces some neat concepts that audiences have never been exposed to, which is why it was popular, but the plot itself was utter dogshit. Particularly when viewed from a scientific lens like Nolan seemed to want from the outset.

          Bro, I get you watched Contact at an impressionable age and now every great scifi should have some mix of heady science and human emotional experience, but “the only thing that can escape time and space is the human heart”? REALLY? You have actual scientists and mission commanders and the like having serious discussions in space reciting hallmark greeting card lines to each other with a straight face? This is even before touching on the utter nonsense around the black-hole that couldn’t figure out it’s own size, boundaries and rules.
