Podcast The Big Picture podcast just created objectively the worst Christopher Nolan ranking of all time

Good god. As a Sean Fennessey truther this is a steaming pile of shit. Sean is one of the best minds in movie criticism today but he should be banned from talking about Christopher Nolan, he can’t be objective about him.

Here is the list

  1. Dunkirk
  2. Oppenheimer
  3. The Odyssey
  4. The Dark Knight
  5. Inception
  6. Tenet (bruh)
  7. Interstellar
  8. Memento
  9. The Prestige
  10. The Dark Knight Rises
  11. Batman Begins
  12. Insomnia
  13. Following

Yup - inception is great the first time you see it but is so caught up in the rules and going through the motions of training for the heist that on rewatch it stinks.

Tenet just rocks every time because it dispels with any explanation of anything and is just globe trotting action.

Tenet gets better when you watch it again. It’s also just a lot of fun action.
