Date: July 6th, 2026 1:30 PM Author: hairless theatre He's never been big on Characters in general (the fact that he attracts platinum casts covers this up to an extent) and his women characters in particular are LJL (despite the fact that every actress from Jlaw/streep/scarjo on down would cut out her ovaries to work with him). Even at his peak you got the impression that the Bechdel Test functioned as an arbitrary constraint on his work, like if you told Monet "no red in this one".
Now the Academy has built that one relatively simple test out into a set of DEI criteria that--if you haven't yet looked at them, you should; this is not braindead conservative hysteria here--have basically had a proportionate effect on nolan's work. |
|
Date: July 6th, 2026 3:40 PM Author: abusive bistre public bath I always laugh at libs' obsession with "The Bechdel Test" because in real life women spend an insane amount talking about men and basically competing with each other for male attention. This idea that we should have all of these women in leading positions talking about solving problems or whatever is LJL and takes me out of almost any movie or TV show immediately. It just destroys the suspension of disbelief. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5880054&forum_id=2~#49982008) |

"A3. Main storyline/subject matter

Just make a movie no one wants to see and improve your chances at an Oscar!! |

Still fucked up because it essentially is still forcing, or at least heavily incentivizing filmmakers to produce propaganda, which is something hollywood would already be doing even if it didn't have these requirements. I loled at the idea of someone making a film about a deaf guy just to try to get an oscar. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5880054&forum_id=2~#49984225) |

I mean don't get me wrong, it'll make money off nolan's personal brand, but that's true of anything at this point; the question is what it does to that brand going forward. I'm sure the thing will be fine but none of this other films (incl. Tenet) ever got this kind of bad buzz. Also libs are on the ropes culturally and have been (to their immense credit IMO) basically cutting bait on coming to the defense of this kind of shit now, so no one's really out there fighting for him. Best comp is probably disney's new Snow White movie with the Mud Princess as to whom "fairest in the land" literally now means "she is fair (i.e., just) in her decisionmaking". |

One Battle &c lost money. Gladiator 2 made money but was fucking horrible.
I'll watch Odyssey but expect it to be a real black mark on Nolan's oeuvre. |

His last great movie was Inception (which he wrote well before he came to fame). The rest are all scripts that needed another 20 drafts (but no one made him do them). |
