Saw the trailer with 1917. It did nothing for me. While Jason Bourne meets Inception looks good on paper, a scifi/martial arts/firearms film feels like it's been done to death.
In the back of my mind I'm hearing this voice say "but this is Christopher Nolan doing it". And that voice isnt compelling me to be sold on it.

I mean, that youtube video starts with something we've all seen before. The standard two characters laying on the ground, or maybe against the wall, and then they let go and somehow spring upwards into the air, as if in free flight, towards a building. THen they land and run up the building's side. Same ol hollywood bull****, try something new for once.TCTTS said:
Ha, kung fu? What?
First of all, the bad guy in the elevator is moving backward in time - "emerging" from the elevator he's technically entering - and is running into John David Washington's character, who quickly attempts to swat/push him away. But it's literally a split-second move and there's no way you can definitely tell me that's "kung fu" or that it leads to generic, hand-to-hand combat, especially considering that the guy in black is, again, moving backward (starting at the 1:56 mark below). Also it's the last second of the trailer. There's literally no other fighting/hand-to-hand combat anywhere to be found. That's not to say it's not present in the movie - I'm sure it is - but if so, who cares? Since when did fighting become uncool? And when have you ever seen moving-backward-in-time fighting?
Just say it fast and dont look backDecay said:
I can't get past my own inability to pronounce Tenet. I keep saying "tenent" and I can't unhear that. Then I try way too hard and it comes out "tennit" and that doesn't sound right either. So I guess I'll just trip over it for a few months. Tenant. The movie is about renters. Tenants.

So it's safe to assume our minds will be blown upon watching this movie, but backwards in time, where we enter the theater with minds already blown, and leave with minds reassembled as the credits roll?
I'm definitely going to walk out of the theater backwards.
Dune is not in danger as of now, but TENET is more than likely going to be pushed backPDWT_12 said:
Me begging Warner Brothers to leave TENET and Dune at their current premier dates
Fair point, I didn't think about the domino effect if a movie like TENET gets moved.TCTTS said:
If Tenet gets pushed back, Dune likely gets pushed back as a result. Yes, I think Dune will still be ready by Christmas, but the whole WB calendar MIGHT have to shift if something as big as Tenet moves. The only thing I can think of is if Tenet claims a fall date like October. That's still a big move, and a random release month for something like Tenet, but it likely wouldn't be a big enough move to force Dune to have to push as well. Super interested to see how this plays out...
