@aelfred_D We know all about you catlicks and your cannibalisms

@RyanK1986 @Strangeland_Elf He has Alfred tell a story that takes one minute. And you call that “over explaining” lmao
English
@TheMiddleborne @Strangeland_Elf The films speak for themselves.
He overexplains quite a bit, especially for Inception and Interstellar. He also overexplains the chaos versus order philosophy in Batman.
I honestly don't think he realizes how much he does it.
It's a common gripe.

These guys all have the memory and intellectual capacity of a boiled newt

Unpopular opinion: Christopher Nolan is overrated. He is pretentious, and most of his works are works of sophistry where he tries to flaunt his faux intelligence. The Odyssey will be no different, and even worse because Nolan is willing to raceswap half of his cast because of his obsession with prestige and notoriety. No one hates non-whites on screen. Just write strong original characters instead of lazily raceswapping classics to virtue signal and win fake awards that have lost their honor.

@egotis10 A legitimate concern isn’t “NOLAN IS A HACK AND HE HATES THE WEST AND THIS FILM IS WOKE GARBAGE”
That’s mental retardation.
A legitimate concern is “I don’t think they should have cast Lupita, she doesn’t fit the character or the reality of the era.”
English
@TheMiddleborne Yes racist and retarded - is this always your answer to legitimate concerns ?
English
@RyanK1986 @Strangeland_Elf Dude, he’s told people not to overthink his films and just vibe them. He deliberately *doesn’t* overexplain things
English
@Strangeland_Elf @TheMiddleborne I'm not dogging you for liking him.
A lot of people enjoy his discussions on heady concepts: memory, good and evil, dreams, time and space, ect.
All I'm saying is it's a valid critique of his work.
Again, I enjoy a lot of Nolan.
I watched my favorite of his this past week.

Can’t believe Fagles’ Odyssey translation used “potluck”
English
@Strangeland_Elf His films are half about parents and their kids because Nolan seems to love his kids
English
Nolan? Pretentious? How the heck is Nolan pretentious? The guy makes films for wide audiences. And sophistry? What??? I don’t think this guy knows what the words he’s using even mean, The guy makes movies that are ponderous and sentimental. He’s often likes Fast and Furious and made action heist films. He’s not trying to be some intellectual, he just incorporates what fascinates him.
English
Nolan is one of the most conservative directors in Hollywood. He’s doing all the things people scream about wanting from movies. He JUST WON SEVEN OSCARS WITH A NEARLY ALL WHITE ALL MALE CAST.
What the hell are you talking about saying he’s casting for “prestige?”

In the parenting coass my wife and I took recently, the emphasis of the entire thing was primarily about how the relationship between husband and wife is more important to their child than almost anything else.
Getting on the same page and showing that you and your spouse love each other and are committed to each other takes care of like 80% of parenting problems

my marriage carries the greatest weight of all. Nothing will shape the emotional world of my children so completely as the love between my wife and me.

@andrewjohnhuff It always happens when there’s no buildup, nothing to suggest a scene is going to happen
English
@TheMiddleborne This actually happened to me when I was a teen watching the original Showtime cut of the Stargate SG-1 pilot. Mom didn’t walk into the room the entire time until right at the moment there was full female nudity. She screamed and jumped in front of the TV.

His parents have walked in the room, switch to a graphic sex scene

@SonnyBunch Also, he’s doing at least three different shows for three different streaming services with Mobland on Paramount+, Young Sherlock on Amazon, and The Gentlemen on Netflix. And they all slap

Guy Ritchie has a new movie out? Guy Ritchie has a new movie out! The actors are well dressed, the cutting is quick, the dialogue is snappy … but it really feels like a sketched out version of a film more than a final product. Still: I liked it! thebulwark.com/p/in-the-grey-…

@TheMiddleborne @MustacheBob2 I have an ma in medieval lit and wrote a large research paper on it. I also have a tattoo from the original manuscript.

Bro, the story in the Green Knight is explicitly Christian. Every value and the whole conclusion of the film are explicitly Christian, like it hits you over the head with it, I guess we don't like, see a crucifix, but FFS.
Elijah the Middleborne@TheMiddleborne
The Green Knight shat the bed because it refused to allow the story to be Christian
