Oppenheimer sucked · u/lowiqdog · ↑34 · 2023-07-22
"Movies that I think don't belong (so far): Black Panther Past Lives Anchorman Ocean's Eleven Oppenheimer I find it hard to believe these are among the best 100 movies of this century."
"Imagine how boring the Oppenheimer movie would be if the Japanese weren't genocidal imperialists allied with Nazi Germany? They really took one for the team. Hope Nolan acknowledges them in his acceptance speech."
"I did think Oppenheimer was a good movie, just got so tiring with the communist witch trial shit in the second half"
Would have rather seen a movie on Richard Feynman · u/Noob_saibot2 · ↑27 · 2023-07-22
"What was the last (non capeshit) movie to reach Barbenheimer's level of hype?"
"*Oppenheimer* induced such a hollow echo of what I felt in that theater in 2008 that I became hyperaware of the ABSENCE of that feeling"
