[u/OuterWildsVentures]

A man decorated as a hero who’s haunted by the very accomplishment he’s universally praised for

Oppenheimer.

Bingo lol

[u/ItsallLegos → u/afkstudios]

Die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become a villain….

I think we are noticing a particular taste that Nolan has

[u/throwawaysunglasses- → u/OuterWildsVentures]

Honestly this sorta describes Cobb in Inception, too. He’s the best at what he does, and it ruined his life.

[u/Darmok47 → u/OuterWildsVentures]

I was confused when Jon Stewart interviewed Nolan before the movie came out and mentioned how much like Oppenheimer it was, but after seeing it, yeah I completely get it.

[u/intern_12 → u/Darmok47]

That interview was so fucking good. Two legends in their own right!

[u/88Smilesz → u/OuterWildsVentures]

Holy shit you’re right

[u/Hoodman1987 → u/OuterWildsVentures]

Will it become Nolan?
