One of my great uncles died on that beach

Looking forward to this

 

[Window]

Would have liked another sci-fi, not excited. Nolan's final attempt at getting an Oscar.

Final? Nolan has plenty of time left.

 

[mjc]

lol @ that smiling dude on the boat.

Oh god it gets worse every time I rewatch it

 

[ryutaro's mama]

And people wanted him to keep making Batmang movies.

SMH

 

[CrichtonKicks]

Not while Deakins is doing the cinematography for a BladeRunner film. Deakins' time has come.

I think it depends on how well Blade Runner is received. If it's polarizing or negative then I think it's a blow to Deakins' chances.

 

[lastplayed]

You can hear a plane getting closer when they duck, so they're probably about to get attacked by German forces.

Stuka dive bombers

 

[Pizza Luigi]

Why does it look like half the guys on the boat are lost? Their facial expressions ruined the scene.

Dutch extras are the best in the business.

 

[wesleyshark]

Can't wait!!

This shot man...

Man.....

 

[VexMythoclast]

Ive been meaning to read up on Dunkirk, any consensus on which book or books to start with?

 

[CraigerGamer]

The movie is about the Dunkirk Evacuation. Basically (from what I understand) a large number of Allied soldiers were cornered in Dunkirk, France and there was a hasty, cobbled together evacuation. Guys/bodies on the beach are presumably soldiers who fought in the battle, and the guys on the boat are being evacuated. You can hear a plane getting closer when they duck, so they're probably about to get attacked by German forces.

Man, Vietnam must have sucked.

 

[Theorry]

Hoyte van Hoytema. is so good.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Oh shit


hyype

 

[Prompto]

Hoyte van Hoytema. is so good.

Yeah. Definite upgrade from Wally Pfister.

 

[a916]

I'm in.

Let's do this Nolan!

 

[Technosteve]

Overcast weather yup that looks like north of france

 

[Lord Morairty007]

Is this movie only following the evacuation of Dunkirk? Or is it going to show the full battle of Dunkirk?

 

[Lord Virgin]

What is Wally Pfister upto these days?

 

[Lan Dong Mik]

all hail smiling dude

 

[Ridley327]

Hoyte van Hoytema. is so good.

With how good this already looks, I'm glad that Spectre is looking to be the odd man out in his filmography. That film looked like anyone could have shot it.

 

[chicko1983]

Do Americans learn about Operation Dynamo during history?

Im Australian and was fortunate to have a world war 2 buff as my history teacher at school, so this evacuation was taught over a couple of weeks.

Hitler's second biggest blunder IMO.

 

[XANDER CAGE]

I am extremely this guy

 

[Tugatrix]

These shots make Wally cry, holly god Hoytema your shots are gorgeous

 

[Discotheque]

With how good this already looks, I'm glad that Spectre is looking to be the odd man out in his filmography. That film looked like anyone could have shot it.

i dunno about that. the scenes in Rome and Mexico looked really damn good. his quality still shines through. Mendes made some boring ass Bond movies but they looked impeccable.

Nolan's been getting better work out of him though going by Interstellar and now this trailer. I also think TDK trilogy looked great with Pfister, best looking comic movies by a large margin. But Hoytema is an upgrade.

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

I am extremely this guy

I hope someone behind him was screaming "no more dead soldiers"

 

[iPaul93]

That Cinematography.

My first thought.

 

[Theorry]

Apart from the opening scene tho. When that was finished i was so hyped. But then..

 

[Rogan]

I want it.

I want Nolan.

 

[Kinyou]

all hail smiling dude

The scene itself is great, but once you focus for too long on any of the individual faces, oh boy....

No. We glanced over WW2 in World history in highschool. We focused more on WW1. If it was WW2 history, we only talked about the d-day invasions (The teacher showed the first part of Saving Private Ryan and the Battle at Brecourt in Band of Brothers.)

 

[Kyoufu]

Nolan + Zimmer can only mean great things.

 

[SilentRacoon]

Looks stunning as expected from Nolan GOD, I particularly love the last shot as the bomber engine noise drew closer to those clueless soldiers, gave me legit chills.

 

[Ridley327]

i dunno about that. the scenes in Rome and Mexico looked really damn good. his quality still shines through. Mendes made some boring ass Bond movies but they looked impeccable.

I think the only scene I really liked from a visual standpoint was the Spectre meeting itself. All those dark shadows pouring over everything is totally my bag.

I didn't think much of Mexico beyond the obvious technical prowess that went into the one-er that opens the film. Like, I agree that it was impressive on that front, but it didn't do much of anything other than that.

 

[javac]

Visually stunning from a cinematography and color standpoint but also powerful in its depictions of the events unfolding on an emotional level without an ounce of words being uttered. Can't wait to see this.

 

[Technosteve]

I want to see the battle of Lille

 

[Nobility]

Where do I deposit my money?

 

[Sanjuro]

Those men on that boat, they made their choice!

 

[JB1981]

Cinematography looks amazing, incredible clarity and scale. This movie is going to be epic

 

[MattyG]

Stuka dive bombers

Oh my god. I love World War II and study it all the time and I never knew that noise came from sirens. Huh.

 

[kylecoley182]

That guy from 1D is in this movie i just remember

 

[jelly]

The scene itself is great, but once you focus for too long on any of the individual faces, oh boy....

Nolan was absolutely dire with big group extra scenes in Dark Knight Rises, I wish he would care a little more on the little details like this, it's just sloppy.

 

[DMczaf]

Will this have McDonalds toys and Action Figures?

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

I'm waiting for the Hot Topic shirts to go up for preorder.

 

[berzeli]

Hoyte van Hoytema. is so good.

I still hate Nolan et al. for stealing him from us. No longer do our TV shows look as brilliant.

(Seriously though, the man is a marvel and very nice to boot.)

 

[SilentRacoon]

Will this have McDonalds toys and Action Figures?

Wonder what the themed hamburger will look like.

 

[pulsemyne]

Oh my god. I love World War II and study it all the time and I never knew that noise came from sirens. Huh.

Yep. Fitted to scare the shit out of people. Psychological warfare.

 

[XANDER CAGE]

Oh my god. I love World War II and study it all the time and I never knew that noise came from sirens. Huh.

I mean this is true but that particular video is from a pink floyd song

 

[Dan]

You guys realize it's not the director's job to micromanage extras, right? That shit's ultimately on 2nd ADs and those folks.

 

[maquiladora]

As a trailer....I think that was actually pretty weak and poorly made. The actually shots in the trailer do look great though.

 

[jerry113]

What a dark time it must've been to be a Brit (1940).

Nazis pouring all over continental Europe, all the British allies falling like dominoes.

One island seemingly stands alone.

 

[BTM]

Oh fuck yes
