Awwww my local theater isn't bringing out the 15/70mm IMAX projector for this. Instead they'll be showing it in laser. The Laser projector is capable of the 1.43:1 aspect ratio so theres still that. Plus the screen is still gigantic.

There was a exhibitor/trade screening on Monday night and there was a private tweet with the following reaction:

- The source loved and said it's the most intense film he has ever seen.
- It's a very stressful film.
- The cinematography was gorgeous and Zimmer's soundtrack was intense.
- One of the executives said that it's "one of the best films WB has ever produced".
- Something huge not shown in marketing occurs.
- The film received a standing ovation.

Source seemed reliable.

Now the hype starts to gear up again. Subdued trailers were perfect for keeping expectations in check. I imagine this is gonna end up like Gravity except a war film.

This is why I watch Nolan films! I want a film that makes Interstellar's stressful moments look quaint. That makes the docking scene (the combination of visuals + music) seem like child's play!

I'm sorry Sculli...I can't hang with these Mahvel and AT-ST AT-ST AT-ST fans anymore.

The new generation is passing me by. I can't even come up with paraphrases anymore...

This is where Johnny Cash's version of Hurt plays...

More like some Lethal Weapon sax notes after you accidentally fire your gun in the locker room.

I'm afraid the movie's PG-13 rating will detract from the visceral experience a film about Dunkirk should be. That and Nolan's very sterile style have got me somewhat worried.

I just don't think Nolan is a good fit for a war movie.

Ready to be proven wrong, though!
