Denis

 

Denis for sure. Haven’t seen Oppie yet but dunkirk is the only of the other three I liked.

 

All 4 of Denny’s are great. I enjoy interstellar but it’s a mess, Dunkirk is good, tenet is garbage and Oppie is great.

 

that is a much more interesting question than the other one from this week comparing Denis and Cameron lol

 

Oppenheimer is probably the best of those eight films, but there are a lot of better directors to choose from.

 

Arrival is my favorite of all of those, but they're all really great. I might give the edge to Denis just because I prefer some of the earlier Nolan stuff this batch though.

 

Blade Runner 2049
Dune
Interstellar
Arrival
Oppenheimer
Dunkirk
Tenet

Denis wins for sure.

 

Oppenheimer
Arrival
Dune 2
Dunkirk
Dune
2049
Interstellar
Tenet

 

1. Oppenheimer
2. Dune 1 and 2
3. The tidal wave from Interstellar
4. The first two-thirds of Arrival
5. Tenet
6. The beginning of Dunkirk
7. A nap
8. Blade Runner 2049

 

Blade Runner 2049 last is wild

 

Tenet not being last is more wild

 

Tenet has some fun action scenes. 2049 doesn't have anything redeemable.

 

it has the best acting of ryan gosling’s career but okay

 

I have never seen a Villeneuve film

 

I saw Arrival and Dune 1 and neither were my thing at all

 

That may be true, but that is a low bar to cross.

 

Villeneuve and Nolan are an interesting comparison because both have gotten better recently by going in opposite directions: Nolan is doing his best work making more human films, while Villeneuve has been better embracing his blockbuster talents.

 

Both Blade Runner movies are fantastic.

Probably should just put this in the unpopular opinions thread, but I hated Interstellar. It looks beautiful but I just couldn’t get into the story

 

A coworker of mine insisted that I watch Interstellar because it was his favorite movie. It was alright, it looked cool.

I had him watch Road House. He didn’t like it.

 

Didn’t like the throat rips?

 

My fiance had me watch Detroit Rock City. Was pretty fun. Other than Bobby from The Sopranos attempting to assault Natasha Lyonne.

 

I haven't seen 2049, Tenet, or Oppenheimer, and I thought Dunkirk was boring. Just based on what I've seen I like Denis more, but Interstellar is the only one on that list that's made me cry.

 

After Ex Machina and Annihilation I thought Garland would be just as big a sci fi director, and maybe he is idk, but I hated Men and I have very little interest in Civil War
