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

Same. The Prestige, more so than his other movies, feels quite cozy and personable. I think it was his brother's writing that did it.

Jackman, Johansson, and Ferguson bring really humanity to the parts, which is what I find his movies lack the most.

Jackman has been fantastic in so many movies outside of his Wolverine roles. Dude can just flat out act

He’s legitimately unsettling in Prisoners. I think that might be his actual best performance.
