New Movie: Christopher Nolan epic “Oppenheimer f Robert Downey Jr & Matt Damon UPDATE: $958M OSCAR WINNER!

Same.
I heard the last hour is courtroom drama about him being a communist.
At that point, the war is over
The tension of building the bomb is over.
I don't know all the details, but I know he doesn't wind up in jail.
An hour of that...dunno.

Finally saw it,
The after war hour long legal drama back/forth wasn't bad.
Really good..

Love the 'surprise' Harry Truman cameo.
Always liked that actor.
Thats how you make a mark in about 5min of screen time.
He was great :yes:

and Best actor isn't Cillian Murphy it's Robert Downey Jr.


“I don’t want to see that son of a bitch in this office ever again,” Truman reportedly told Secretary of State Dean Acheson. In a letter to Acheson the next year, Truman referred to Oppenheimer as a “cry-baby scientist.”

Oppenheimer's reputation was eventually restored when President John F. Kennedy invited him to a White House dinner and President Lyndon B. Johnson, at the behest of JFK, awarded him the Enrico Fermi Award.

Didn't know that.
They show this at the end of the movie.

Einstein predicted there would be a change in how he was treated by the government at some point.

He said in the movie to Oppenheimer. "It won't be about you, it will be about them."

Politics are a muthafucka :smh:

Imagine if he and Snoop had collaborated on "Oppenheimer-Music from and inspired by the motion picture"



Agreed. I wouldn't mind some more crossover / collab, seeing as Snoop's a fan. Even though the series is now over.


Funny side note ... to paraphrase a coworker of mine - "It's a shame the series is not on the radar for alot of people. They might have heard the title in passing and thought - that's probably a kids' show, or a cartoon / anime. When in fact it's a great gangster drama / period piece. With peaky blinders referring to caps with razor blades in them, lol."
 
Watched it on a 70mm IMAX and it was visually impressive. Black widow had her wack ass titties out left and right. That naked flashback scene went hard on the wife. The pace was pretty fast for 3 hours.

There was almost no actual nuclear chemistry, large scale manufacturing or math derivations in the movie. If you are a scientist, or engineer this aspect of the movie will leave you disappointed.

No mention of what they did to the people of New Mexico. That State was not empty :smh: when they started testing. Not one view of what happened to the people killed in Japan. If they could show the future proliferation of warheads, then they had time to show the impact to the humans.

The lead actor is winning an Oscar. Downey Jr is winning and Oscar. Nolan should finally win for Director.

co-sign all of this...really enjoyed this flick, great performances all around..good tension, cinematography and the pace was very good for a 3 hr film. Also been meaning to read "american prometheus" but haven't had the chance yet.
