I watched both within a few days of each other and liked Barbie way more than Oppenheimer ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Can you tell why?
I posted my thoughts on the movies in their respective megathreads already so I won’t repost them. But it comes down to the simple fact that Christopher Nolan and his gimmicks drive me insane and I’ve never been a fan of his albeit technically impressive filmmaking.
Also it’s hilarious that you’re complaining of Barbie’s wokeness just cause what, it’s written and directed by a woman? Nolan can learn from that and perhaps add a female writer to his arsenal. He sucks at handling female characters and Oppenheimer is a prime example of that. Talk about wasted opportunities having Emily Blunt and Flo Pugh and relegating them to a mere drunk housewife and a pair of breasts. Actually every time I think about how Pugh’s character was handled I knock the movie down a couple more points. 🙄
Yo same thoughts about Pugh, why did they have to frame everything with her boobs in it just right??? Felt out of place
