Nolan is very talented but damn, more white man creator history type movie. No Pharaoh or Hannibal movie

 

[HAR125LEM]

And not a Black Male Actor in sight.
C'MON NOLAN!!!

With That Said...

I'm all for new IMAX Technology. But this is another situation in which Movie Theater chains will not step up in regard to building more IMAX and other Special Format theaters. There's not enough of these theaters for films like this. And the rash of IMAX films of late have been sharing screens and showtimes. With all those showtimes SOLD OUT! With "SUPERMAN" and "FANTASTIC FOUR" coming within a week of one another next Summer (among other Epics), which one's going to be allowed to stay on IMAX screens longer?

Also...
With The Broccoli Family going at it with AMAZON over the latter's treatment and proposed plans for JAMES BOND down the line, this would have been a great opportunity for Nolan to step in. I bet that feud would quiet really quick.
