This is the first time I've actually seen the Best Picture before it was the Best Picture since I have no idea when. And I could probably use to watch it again. It was indeed really good.

I'm excited to rewatch with subtitles since Nolan insists on having the weirdest sound mixing in his theater experience and I don't have great hearing so I end up not being able to make out so much of the film. I will say, as much as I still enjoyed it and am excited to rewatch and engage more fully, it felt like such a waste in the IMAX 70MM format. I get that Nolan *can* and thus he will, and I think it's great that Universal. (and before them Warner Bros) were smart enough to let him tell his own stories, but that format should really be reserved for high spectacle films, and Oppenheimer is just *not* that. 1 Quote Link to comment

It has some high spectacle shots, but yea, it's much more of a character-driven film than probably needs to be in IMAX format. Quote Link to comment

admo Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 I think Chicago PD is brilliant. I've watched every episode over and over and over. Any suggestions for an intelligence unit that searches for perps that you could recommend? Quote Link to comment
JJ Husker Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 The first season (8 episodes) of 3 Body Problem is out on Netflix. I like it a lot so far. They do a pretty good job of feeding you the info needed as it progresses but it wouldn’t hurt to do a little research first if you have no clue what the 3 body problem is and if you have no clue about the book. It’s a rather odd mix of 50 year old Chinese history, Physics and aliens. Same show runners as GoT and, so far, 3 actors from GoT (Samwell Tarley, Davos Seaworth and the high sparrow). I really want to finish it tonight but have an Avs game to watch so it might have to wait one more day. Hopefully they get season 2 out more expeditiously than the GoT seasons. Quote Link to comment

Did you read the books? I just finished the first two and they are excellent. Side note, I simply couldn't get into GoT. Gave up after 4 episodes, nothing about it hooked me and I love sci fi/fantasy. Quote Link to comment

I’m a bit weird, I like reading about physics. I don’t totally understand a lot of it but I find it interesting. But please give GoT another shot. If you like fantasy/sci fi, it’ll have to hook you at some point. 1 Quote Link to comment
