@@FrameVoyager I am very interested in the story. The downfall of Oppwnhiemer cast out. But Waaaay too much of it. Really wanted to see the action of the building of it, MUCH MORE. Left feeling cheated out of my ticket..
Nolan did the impossible which I find hilarious. He drew so many eyes and made his film the film of the summer to what is essentially a court drama that also happens to include one of the greatest feat in special effects of the atomic bomb. Frankly I will forever applaud him for that.
For real! For any other filmmaker this would have just been a linear story. Also, the way he uses music and sfx. You definitely go to his movies for a theater experience
I'm glad he did because the last major movie that did this format (the social network) would now be on streaming. Only major blockbusters, horror movies and cheap comedies are now released in theaters.
Saw it at IMAX. Honestly everybody is talking about the picture and sure it was quite something. But the sound. Man, The audio was something else. Also, clapping at the end of the movie. That was new for me.
I agree I watched in 70mm IMAX then went and saw it in a normal chain theatre near me and wow the difference in the sound was incredible, some feelings and ideas were so muddy, drowned out, or non-existent in the normal theatre. Not to mention in IMAX the picture was my entire vision and in the chain theatre it was like i was looking at a distant screen with black bars all around
Just got out of seeing it on regular 70MM and I’ve never walked out of a theater feeling “grey” and that’s a compliment. I appreciated the fact Nolan making the film not just “black and white” but questioning our “moral complexities”. As for the film print oh man it was gorgeous. Seeing the black and white sequences was jaw dropping as you can see every shadowing and all! Especially on the close ups on RDJ you can see the detail. I’m shocked the way how they even capture the explosion and the fact it was filmed on 70MM is unbelievable! It definitely made me fell in love with cinema again!
Same! Drove 3 hours to see it in 70mm. Beautiful film. Hints of Terrance Malik there at the beginning. But as always with Christopher Nolan, good or bad, his movies are an experience
In a flurry of RUclips videos "breaking down" Oppenheimer and really just capitalising on the ad money bandwagon by re-cutting bits of the trailer, this video is a true gem. It's properly researched, well-constructed, and adds considerably to the story of the film's origin. Great piece of work, thank you!
I watched the movie on 35mm. Unfortunately no 70mm or IMAX 15/70 in the place I live in. But 35mm was absolutely breathtaking and a nostalgic experience. Loved seeing the specks of dust and film texture. It was so organic and beautiful that it felt like the movie was alive on screen, in a way I didn't feel with digital projections over the past like 10-15 years.
@@FrameVoyager I drove 3 hrs to see it in 70mm IMAX only to learn that the bulb had burned out (and now that I know how dangerous they are to replace, I have a little more grace for the theater not having a backup on hand). I ended up seeing a regular 70mm back home, and it was beautiful.
Nolan’s daughter: daddy I wanna be in one of your movies. Nolan: ok honey, you know that NaZi at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark who gets his face melted off? That’s gonna be you.
Fun fact in connection to the Sony truck: On Interstellar, the scenes of the ship that were filmed on sound stages, were filmed on sound stages at Sony studios.
I got to watch it on July 22 at 6 p.m. the 7th time the film was ever played. I amazingly got to watch the film in 70mm at one of only 19 IMAX theaters in the United States. I was among the people and we were all amazed at the film!
I saw Oppenheimer in 15/70 IMAX. When I started looking for IMAX locations, I was stunned that I lived only 20 min from one of nineteen 70m IMAX projectors in the US. I saw it at Regal King of Prussia IMAX and it was absolutely amazing.
Having always enjoyed 35mm (4 perf) and 70mm (5 perf) film projection, I especially enjoy those rare times when IMAX 70mm (15 perf) film projection is available. Luckily, we have a theatre in the Atlanta area offering this larger format. Oppenheimer was spectacular in this format. I was very happy to spend the extra admission fee. The black and white segments, shot on the newly available 65mm version of Eastman XX film had just the right contrast, tonality, grain, and luminance. Of course, the color segments shot on the Eastman Vision stocks were also fabulous in this large format. I already have my ticket for a second viewing in this format. This may be our only chance to see it in this format, so why not twice!
With the amount of failing screenings of Imax 70mm format, it would be interesting to see a video about it How many films still use Imax film cameras When was the last time these projectors were used Why it uses Palm app to operate instead of a computer Technical difficulties they currently face Etc..
Had tickets for 70mm film, projector broke Friday, was still not operational sunday, saw imax digital instead. Was still and incredible experience, but slightly saddened by the machines not keeping up.
I was able to convince my manager at my job to drive me an hour and a half to go see Oppenheimer in IMAX 70mm at the Regal UA King Of Prussia 4DX & IMAX in Pennsylvania. (I'm covering the tickets) We're going for an 11:10 PM showing on August 10th. And the reason for going to a showing that late is because that was the only showing where I could get decent seats. I got seats D12 and D13. And I'm excited because I've not seen a 1.43:1 IMAX screen, and I've never seen a movie projected from film. I just hope nothing goes wrong with the show.
I just got back from seeing it in 35mm, no 70mm or IMAX where I live. My initial thought was going to see the Barbie movie, but changed my mind and saw Oppenheimer instead, especially after seeing so many turning up to the cinema to watch the Barbie movie wearing pink and that just isn't me, although I have not discounted seeing it. I avoided seeing any trailers or finding out much Oppenheimer so I didn't know it was going to essentially be played out with a courtroom like drama. At first I wasn't sure about the mix of black and white and colour film, but I liked it and how the film looked. Even though I know the history of the Atom and Hydrogen bombs and the Manhattan Project, I still felt slightly on edge at certain points of the film, especially getting to the bomb test scene and the quieter part when it went off, before the explosion sound came in. It just reminded me how devastating humanity can be, even if Oppenheimer was portrayed a bit more like a hero, despite what he actually helped set in motion.
14:16 Sony has a very good visual effects team. They may have had hired some additional crew for the explosions if some of their staff was familiar with capturing explosion plates. The vfx/sfx industry is very interwoven.
I saw it on Friday in the Providence Imax 70mm theater. From a technical film making perspective I have never really seen anything like it. If you can't get to an Imax screen, then sit closer than you probably would normally. Get close enough that you can't see the side boarders around the screen.
I’ve just watched the movie a couple hours ago in a digital IMAX theatre and it was just a amazing experience! If you have a imax somewhere nearby go and watch the movie there!
Having seen the film yesterday. It felt... Small? It felt like an ambitious TV movie biography. It never got across to me the massive scale of the undertaking. I think most of the problem is in the Nolanisms, and how he bit off way more than he can chew by choosing such a big span of time to convey meaning no bit of it got the time to breathe even given the hefty 3 hour runtime. So the much talked about Trinity recreation got trimmed down to a few seconds of snippets. Spread out over the story. The Sanskrit quote gets foreshadowed so clumsily several times that it felt like a first draft placeholder. So many things felt so run of the mill and standard biography tropes for a writer/director of his stature I really can't help but think that the story would have been better told with a more conventional timeline. Focusing on shorter bits of his life. Maybe spread it out to two films. Part 1, Manhattan, from the announcement of splitting uranium to a 15 min 2001 stargate -esque Trinity explosion, and part two being the courtroom thriller of the aftermath. Did I watch it in 70mm IMAX? No, no such screens are available here. But I have seen more awe inspiring recreations of the Trinity explosion with ep 8 of Twin Peaks: The Return on my 65 inch OLED at home. I have been blown away by the 70mm scans of Apollo 11 on my 1080p home cinema projector. No. I am quite sure that the regular 2K DCI screening I saw could have had much more impact given the resources Nolan had.
I managed to see the movie in a 1570 IMAX cinema in Prague and it was a mind-blowing experience. It was the only such cinema in all of EU so there were people from all over Europe. If you live close enough to travel to one of these venues - you definitely should.
That's not true. Germany also has true IMAX theaters, in fact it is in Germany where the largest one 38m x 22m is located. And there you can watch 70mm films , including Oppenheimer
@@IKARUSBLOODYWINGS having IMAX and 70mm doesn't mean having IMAX 70mm, also known as 1570. Regular IMAX is digital and regular 70mm is 5 perf, IMAX 70mm is 3 times larger with 15 perf. I understand the confusion, since Oppenheimer was released in something like 6 different formats, but the list of 1570 theatres is easy to find and the only one in EU is Atrium Flora in Prague, the next closest one is in UK
Seems very interesting, and I'm definitely going to watch this in an IMAX theater, but unfortunately it'll be a digital one as there are no film IMAX theaters in my country ):
I seen this movie recently loved it 10/10 Christopher Nolan really knows to do films really excited on the next film whatever that might be love batman movies and Dunkirk till this day.love your opinion and voice on his movies and how they did it 😊😊😊❤
Dollhouse set was in the Jerry Lewis movie "The Ladies Man" it's very funny the set was used brilliantly he was the only man living in a hotel for women it's really good.
I was just about to comment on that. It wasn't a "dollhouse" or miniature. It was a full-size practical set with movable walls. I think Greta Gerwig references it in Barbie.
Id say Sony Pictures has committed more to theatrical releases than the other studios as they dont even have a streaming service. I wonder what their reason was for not making the cut
I saw it in the more common 21:9 (I think that's the standard ratio these days). I've always wanted to see something on IMAX but our budget is not going to let that happen any time soon. I made the mistake of going in to see Oppenheimer with the wrong mind set. I thought it was mostly about the Trinity test. I loved the movie after watching the whole thing, but was honestly disappointed at how fast the test was compared to everything surrounding it. I'm a bit of a nuclear bomb nerd (or dork), having seen Trinity and Beyond many times. I think the drama up to and a (relatively) short time after the test was wasted. I would have loved a 4 hour movie if that meant more drama around the test, especially any sort of "what have we done?" type subplot.
I don't know why but it felt like it was only average! The atomic bomb explosion which was so hyped only turned out to be meh... (I had already seen a thought provoking cinematic masterpiece before watching Oppenheimer but still)
As much as I love Nolan's films and absolutely adore IMAX, I have to say that the use of the format seemed a bit hap hazard for most of the runtime and I think the narrative didn't really call for its use save the trinity test and the experimental quantum effect shots. Almost all of the courtroom proceedings and social scenes wouldve been more congruent if they were all standard 70mm. The sound mix was also still and issue like all his latest films. The score was so powerful and pushing the pace early on when I felt that they would've been better served with either a more subdued score or none at all. Those are my only complaints though really and I still think this was one of Nolan's best films and I'm glad I made the trip to see it in IMAX 70mm
Read American Prometheus in preparation for the film. Love every Nolan movie he's ever made. Even went to the theater to watch it with my brother who is also a huge Nolan fan. That being said, terrible theater experience, boring movie, and not worthy of IMAX(besides like 3 or 4 shots). TENET will continue to be Nolan's masterpiece in my mind, maybe he can change that with his later films.
Well we covered it because it was interesting to see who supplied them with stuff for the explosion sequence. It's not surprising but it is worth asking what part they played in it since the studio was originally bidding for the movie. Not trying to grasp for time
Sorry. To me it was mostly 3hrs of people talking. Not really much about actually building the device. That and the timeline jumping before during and after the Trinity test so many times. I thought "Fat Man and Little Boy" 1989 starring Paul Newman as Groves and Dwight Schultz as Oppenheimer was better. Except for their mistake depicting one of the Demon Core criticality accidents which did happen but After the Nagasaxi bombing. I don't think I'll get a copy of this film for my library when it gets out. It won't be a Keeper for me. Seeing it Once was enough.
Just saw this movie today in imax. It was sadly underwhelming. basically 3 hours of dialogue. No science, no technical displays, just drama and dialogue. Why they put this movie in imax is beyond me. Save yourself some money and see it in a regular theatre.
This is kind of stupid.. DNEG(the vfx studio) literally had to release a page on their own website to list that somewhere 200 vfx artists worked on this show.. but only a few were credited in the film. This is the Hollywood’s dishonest at its best (after top gun maverick) and christopher nolan is pushing it way too hard to the point I am starting to not like him. It is us who made the interstellar possible, not some random person who would even lie just to sell tickets.
Oh I've never thought there were no VFX artists that work on his films. Just that he did as much practical as possible. Which I'm sure is a pain for VFX artists too 😅
Saw it last night. BORING, BORING, BORING. SNORE, POLITICAL COURT ROOM SOAP OPERA POORLY WRITTEN SNOOZE FEST, BORING, WASTE OF MY TIME AND MONEY, BLAH FILM.
MI7 was great, and this looks good, but IMNSHO, I am NOT sympathetic to Wokewood (Hoolywood) in general. Until they stop the Woke and ID policies stuff, they are personas non-grata for many of us out here!
Aaah yes, millionaire actors, actresses and writers striking for more money knowing that AI will inevitably replace them no matter how hard they try to stop it from doing so. WHILST there are billions of working class and homeless across the world struggling to survive as it is.
Separate issues. And they aren't fighting for themselves but the lesser known actors and writers that make pennies while the studios make millions with their work.
most of the actors in SAG AFTRA are not millionaire stars but regular people like you and me. Acting is a job like anything else and the super famous actors you see are a very very small percentage of the people affected by this.
Completely uninformed take. Not every actor is a millionaire or famous. A lot of them are struggling to make ends meet while studios screw them over with shady deals taking all their hard work and profit for themselves. The makers of Oppenheimer, with their fame, have put more light into the issue by leaving the premiere.
What did you think about the movie? See it in 70mm?

Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul were Sony productions in New Mexico, I imagined they still have a lot of production services there.
70mm baby. I sure did. Manchester UK this morning
This is smart all directors should physically give scripts to actors
Awesome video 🔥
Appreciate it!
@@FrameVoyager can you do a comparison between Standard cinema cameras, IMAX digital cameras and IMAX film cameras?? It’s Res,Aspect ratio, lens etc
@@Anicake05 Kind of did with the Digital IMAX video. But I think we are looking at covering that in a IMAX vs. Ultra Panavision
@@FrameVoyager all the best ✨
Seems very interesting, and I'm definitely going to watch this in an IMAX theater, but unfortunately it'll be a digital one as there are no film IMAX theaters in my country ):
another banger 😩
(early squad)
Appreciate it 😅 on to Barbie next!
I seen this movie recently loved it 10/10 Christopher Nolan really knows to do films really excited on the next film whatever that might be love batman movies and Dunkirk till this day.love your opinion and voice on his movies and how they did it 😊😊😊❤
Pattinson added fuel to the fire but didn't get cast for the movie. What a shame.
I wonder what they could have cast him as in this movie.
Saw it in Imax. It's good.
58min countdown to Oppenheimer 70mm IMAX at 930am and then Barbie at 2pm.
Dollhouse set was in the Jerry Lewis movie "The Ladies Man" it's very funny the set was used brilliantly he was the only man living in a hotel for women it's really good.
I was just about to comment on that. It wasn't a "dollhouse" or miniature. It was a full-size practical set with movable walls. I think Greta Gerwig references it in Barbie.
@@davidleedutton here is the Ladies Man trailer they show the building of the set on the studio stage - ruclips.net/video/m-ntcPtjpag/видео.html
so robert pattinson did inception on nolan
💀💀💀
IMAX 70mm maybe the best that you could see this kinda film😎.
It really was! Saw it last night in 15 Perf 70mm IMAX!
@@FrameVoyager I mean at my country (Indonesia) there's no 70mm imax to watch, im in bandung :(
I got to see it in 70mm…. It was indescribable
I saw it in standard digital 2d, no regrets
Trinity Test was definitely a Kodak Moment no cap
Biggest build up and dud of a practical effect ever..
Id say Sony Pictures has committed more to theatrical releases than the other studios as they dont even have a streaming service. I wonder what their reason was for not making the cut
Unfortunately I will not be able to see it in IMAX 70mm because the nearest theater is in couple of thousand kilometers
I saw it in the more common 21:9 (I think that's the standard ratio these days). I've always wanted to see something on IMAX but our budget is not going to let that happen any time soon. I made the mistake of going in to see Oppenheimer with the wrong mind set. I thought it was mostly about the Trinity test. I loved the movie after watching the whole thing, but was honestly disappointed at how fast the test was compared to everything surrounding it. I'm a bit of a nuclear bomb nerd (or dork), having seen Trinity and Beyond many times. I think the drama up to and a (relatively) short time after the test was wasted. I would have loved a 4 hour movie if that meant more drama around the test, especially any sort of "what have we done?" type subplot.
I don't know why but it felt like it was only average! The atomic bomb explosion which was so hyped only turned out to be meh... (I had already seen a thought provoking cinematic masterpiece before watching Oppenheimer but still)
My only regret is that the movie didn't premiere on the 16th.
Robert Pattinson gives Oppenheimer's speeches and than wasnt even considered for a role 😂
Nolan is one of those directors who think they make high art when they really just entertain idiots.
Ironically, this is an idiot take.
As much as I love Nolan's films and absolutely adore IMAX, I have to say that the use of the format seemed a bit hap hazard for most of the runtime and I think the narrative didn't really call for its use save the trinity test and the experimental quantum effect shots. Almost all of the courtroom proceedings and social scenes wouldve been more congruent if they were all standard 70mm. The sound mix was also still and issue like all his latest films. The score was so powerful and pushing the pace early on when I felt that they would've been better served with either a more subdued score or none at all.
Those are my only complaints though really and I still think this was one of Nolan's best films and I'm glad I made the trip to see it in IMAX 70mm
Bro you say things in the longest way possible
Just like Nolan! Thanks!
Great video btw
@@hexedits369 haha appreciate it
@@FrameVoyager ❤️ no problem. Great summer for cinema. All love. Just banter
Just gotta say Filmconvert is a superfluous film emulation. It lacks halation for example.
Read American Prometheus in preparation for the film. Love every Nolan movie he's ever made. Even went to the theater to watch it with my brother who is also a huge Nolan fan.
That being said, terrible theater experience, boring movie, and not worthy of IMAX(besides like 3 or 4 shots).
TENET will continue to be Nolan's masterpiece in my mind, maybe he can change that with his later films.
The story has been told already: "Fat Man and Little Boy" 1990, with Gen Grove played by Paul Newman.
It’s very common for studios to have a rental company part… stop grasping for time
Well we covered it because it was interesting to see who supplied them with stuff for the explosion sequence. It's not surprising but it is worth asking what part they played in it since the studio was originally bidding for the movie. Not trying to grasp for time
Sorry. To me it was mostly 3hrs of people talking. Not really much about actually building the device. That and the timeline jumping before during and after the Trinity test so many times. I thought "Fat Man and Little Boy" 1989 starring Paul Newman as Groves and Dwight Schultz as Oppenheimer was better. Except for their mistake depicting one of the Demon Core criticality accidents which did happen but After the Nagasaxi bombing. I don't think I'll get a copy of this film for my library when it gets out. It won't be a Keeper for me. Seeing it Once was enough.
it just hit me.. Michael Caine is not in this movie!
Just saw this movie today in imax. It was sadly underwhelming. basically 3 hours of dialogue. No science, no technical displays, just drama and dialogue. Why they put this movie in imax is beyond me. Save yourself some money and see it in a regular theatre.
Films should not be experienced for the first time on a streaming service; that is simply a waste.
This is kind of stupid.. DNEG(the vfx studio) literally had to release a page on their own website to list that somewhere 200 vfx artists worked on this show.. but only a few were credited in the film. This is the Hollywood’s dishonest at its best (after top gun maverick) and christopher nolan is pushing it way too hard to the point I am starting to not like him. It is us who made the interstellar possible, not some random person who would even lie just to sell tickets.
Oh I've never thought there were no VFX artists that work on his films. Just that he did as much practical as possible. Which I'm sure is a pain for VFX artists too 😅
Humanity you mean capitalism….come it not ******ing hard
Just like a nuke
Humanity didn’t make that anti-christ death machine 😂 don’t try to group us up to take the sting out of the ones actually responsible
5:45 Ahh they went on strike because they felt unfaily treated when they only got 4 million dollars. Brokies lol
The only thing to complain about this movie for me was josh peck. He’s such a bad serious actor.
Saw it last night. BORING, BORING, BORING. SNORE, POLITICAL COURT ROOM SOAP OPERA POORLY WRITTEN SNOOZE FEST, BORING, WASTE OF MY TIME AND MONEY, BLAH FILM.
Ok
It's okay to be wrong.
haha i agree, tenet was way way way better, and memento is his best work
MI7 was great, and this looks good, but IMNSHO, I am NOT sympathetic to Wokewood (Hoolywood) in general. Until they stop the Woke and ID policies stuff, they are personas non-grata for many of us out here!
Aaah yes, millionaire actors, actresses and writers striking for more money knowing that AI will inevitably replace them no matter how hard they try to stop it from doing so. WHILST there are billions of working class and homeless across the world struggling to survive as it is.
Separate issues.
And they aren't fighting for themselves but the lesser known actors and writers that make pennies while the studios make millions with their work.
most of the actors in SAG AFTRA are not millionaire stars but regular people like you and me. Acting is a job like anything else and the super famous actors you see are a very very small percentage of the people affected by this.
Completely uninformed take. Not every actor is a millionaire or famous. A lot of them are struggling to make ends meet while studios screw them over with shady deals taking all their hard work and profit for themselves. The makers of Oppenheimer, with their fame, have put more light into the issue by leaving the premiere.
