I made "The Prestige," and Christopher Nolan stole it, then gave a copy to the Onion's movie critic Peter K. Rosenthal in a dvd case for his movie "Interstellar."
The main reason he stole the movie was to give it to someone as a fake-out, and along the line, he got curious and watched it and published it instead. That bastard!
Hey, Peter, next time you meet Chris, you should shoot a polaroid of him and write 'Dont believe his lies' on it. Maybe that would help you, so this will not happen again.
Congrats, you've set yourself from the rest of the crowd as one of the special ones to get it. Please do these mental lightweights a favour and prove that you "get" it. I'm sure the Onion would love grading your explanation.
***** "Th3Cynic commented on a video: 'good jaaab' - 'Adele - Someone Like You (Boyce Avenue acoustic cover) on iTunes & Spotify'." I dunno, man. I was gonna ask you the same thing. How does it feel to have the same tastes as a menstruating 14 year old girl?
Before this video started I thought: " I bet Nolan stole this idea from Rosenthal!". BAM!! I was right. Peter, get your sh*t together and stop giving other people your ideas. Remember what happened with "Lord of the Rings"? Yeah...
As I left the movie theater I heard a guy saying to his girlfriend "Well, there's 3 hours we'll never get back" and I thought "People like you are the reason Adam Sandler is allowed to keep making movies."
You don't have to understand every little bit of a movie to enjoy the overall story arc and visuals; not very many of us understood the science in "Interstellar" (and I personally was irritated at the sappy bullshit about him traveling to a different dimension only to end up behind his daughter's bookcase. Plus, it was obvious that something like that would occur from the opening scenes where his daughter was seeing ghosts in that bookcase). But, Nolan is a great filmmaker and he knows how to take you on a ride no matter what kind of movie he makes. And it's up to those of us who are movie nerds to support filmmakers like him when they try to do something different; hell, I think we're obligated to support them by going to the theater and putting down our $8 bucks or this great medium that so many of us love will eventually stagnate and die a horrible death and the studios will forever refuse to back anything innovative and instead make endless sequels to the Transformers. We don't want to find out the horror resulting from every movie being made by Michael Bay and his fellow hacks.

Jonathon Cowley I wanted to comment "Well, there's 4 minutes I'll never get back" - And then I read your comment, which made this video worth it's while.....
"People like you are the reason Adam Sandler is allowed to keep making movies." Oh fuck off. Don't be pretentious. Maybe he had a great taste in films but just didn't like that one. I for one consider it to be utter shite, and it was hardly a universal success with critics.
This is really sad. I had no idea. I hope Peter K. Rosenthal gets some justice. I am now boycotting Christopher Nolan movies. Well in fact I have been since he stole Batman Begins from me and persuaded Christian Bale and even my old friend Mike Caine not to return my calls.
I wouldn't want to take credit for Inception. Good on you for letting that one go. But Interstellar is wonderful. Keep the fight going! I knew Nolan was a thief when he stole Batman. I mean Batman is Bob Kane's creation and he comes in and makes a Batman movie as if he was the brains behind it. Shameful!
Damn, this seems like one of the most disliked videos by the onion. Are people buying Christopher Nolan's BS? Peter Rosenthal is a man among men, who pours his heart out to you about being betrayed by someone he viewed as a friend, and while he is doing this you dislike the video and tell him you don't believe him? Shame. Shame on you! #BelieveAllPeterRosenthals
Each time, I come expecting something unexpected from Peter Rosenthal and he delivers. One of the few remaining onion web series that keep me subscribed to the onion
hey I was mugged too. That was MY MOVIE. I sent it via FedEx to Christopher Nolan. I wrote it after that other movie I wrote and produced with George Clooney was stolen by Matt Damon and then I see the guy on TV pretending that nothing happened. I have no idea who THIS guy Peter is--- though he LOOKS just like someone who was staying in my poolhouse for w while after his divorce. And Jessica is NOT returning my calls.WTF is going on and am I going to get any royalties?
Your movie? I wrote 95% of the script all you you contributed was sound effects and that bathroom scene. I gave you the script to hold and the next thing I know Christopher Nolan and Interstellar.
I feel really bad for you.... you know I am a professional at what I do. If you want your movie back, just give me your name, address, SSN, and credit card information and I am sure you will be pleased!
You think he feels bad, I was actually IN Interstellar until Nolan got ahold of it. I was Mann, the astronaut who was stranded on the ice planet. It was supposed to be a career-making role for me, but apparently Nolan thought the movie would sell better if they had an established A-lister in the part, so they reshot every scene I was in. I even forfeited a salary in exchange for part of the movie’s gross, but that was with Phil. Nolan’s attorneys told me they weren’t obligated to honor that contract because according to Nolan, I was never involved with the film. Bastard.
Drag them through the mud Rotenthal! This film has all your markings over it. As I was watching this several scenes had me pausing in thought and thinking- this seems like something Peter K. Rosenthal would write. The largest prominate scene being the main protagonist daughter's book shelve revealing to be the center axis dimension to all beginning of space and time. And as I looked on and realise that a father who felt he needed to leave behind his one and only beloved child to pursue other ventures he thought more important at the time. Just to have all arbitrary goals lead him back to what was always the most valued circumference of his ire desires through the passage of his child's bookshelf. Reconnecting the main protagonist dad to what mattered the most. I could not help but be reminded of Peter K. Rosenthal estranged diconnection with his own father distancing relationship with his film journalist son. It is so blatantly clear who's mind this movie draft had sprung from. Who do these thieving Hollywood crows think they are deceiving?
I wonder if any of Nolan’s films are his own work, or if they were all stolen like Interstellar was. If he’s stolen anyone else’s work, I hope that they have the courage to come forward like Peter Rosenthal did.
Hahaha! He's only stolen two of yours. I, ME, I MADE THE DARK KNIGHT TRILOGY! He took them from me! I was happy that Heath got his due for playing myself but it really hurts when Nolan seals your movies. When will it stop Chris? When will it stop? And Michael Caine, for the love of god please come forward! Say something!
I'm glad everyone loves this guy's joke reviews, except for Dirty Dancing, which everyone seems to think is the only one that is deadly serious and "has a point". Welp
Perhaps you could explain to me Peter, When Cooper found himself behind Murphys bookcase why did he not push the books aside and enter his daughters room? He would have been home yrs before he left, he had the mathmatics needed to save humanity and since there were now 2 Coopers, one older than the other he/they could spent time with both children. Then his boy could have turned out better too.
I enjoy every Rosenthal review, this one included. Incidentally, it has more views than any Onion video in months within 10 days of release. Was this featured somewhere else?
I Remember when I showed Mr. Nolan my scripts for The Dark Knight Trilogy. He told me it was crap and there was no way that Christian Bale would put his career in jeopardy for this "trite". Next thing I know, there's three new batman movies and I haven't seen a cent or Mr. Nolan since!
It would have been funnier if he had said that he's going to make the movie in the future and then send it back in time to Christopher Nolan's childhood bedroom in Morse code.
Same thing happened when I wrote the script of an alcoholic agent who fights everybody. I called it Expectations....but the director stole it and now it's called Spectre.
All you cruel people saying this isn't funny, shame on you for even trying to laugh at this poor mans misery. Shame on you. And Chris stop stealing other people's movie, I didn't say anything when you stole Dark Knight but this has gone too far, JUST STOP !
Exact thing happened to my great great great grandfather he is not native English speaker, after he wrote Shesha and Shoren he gave that to Shakespeare for grammar and spelling check Shakespeare told him he needs time my great great great grandfather ok with that, after few months later Shakespeare release his play Romeo and Juliet and nobody believes my great great great grandfather it was his original work Shesha and Shoren 😢😢😢😢
My english is not quite good and i'm not able to get the message... He is saying that Nolan is not able to make his ''own'' movies? It's hard to explain that in english... He is saying that Nolan does not want to make a ''real'' film.
I made "The Prestige," and Christopher Nolan stole it, then gave a copy to the Onion's movie critic Peter K. Rosenthal in a dvd case for his movie "Interstellar."
The main reason he stole the movie was to give it to someone as a fake-out, and along the line, he got curious and watched it and published it instead. That bastard!
😂😂😂
funny, I did the exact same thing.
Welcome Peter to the ruthless world of Hollywood.
Oh, I've been well aware from an early age. Reference my review of The Shining for more on my introduction to the biz of Show.
I was sorry to hear about your seafood restaurant failure, hopefully you have recovered.
God i love these guys . Literally the best news source.
As one of the 200 extras for Interstellar, I can say that this was indeed Rosenthal's movie.
As Matthew MacConnaughey, I approve of this. I just can't remain silent any longer
Hey, Peter,
next time you meet Chris, you should shoot a polaroid of him and write 'Dont believe his lies' on it.
Maybe that would help you, so this will not happen again.
Wow, that sounds like a good idea for a movie! What's Carrie-Anne Moss up to these days?
HA I get it! It's a reference to Memento! We're both smart guys!
Awesome id thumbs up if i wasnt on a phone
It took me 6 years to find such helpful advice
This sounds like my movie Momento. I almost forgot Christ stole it
Oh God, Peter you have to protect Kingdoms of Toranda. If Nolan gets a hold of the film rights...
I don't know what's funnier, this amazing video or all the people not getting it.
Congrats, you've set yourself from the rest of the crowd as one of the special ones to get it. Please do these mental lightweights a favour and prove that you "get" it. I'm sure the Onion would love grading your explanation.
Please explain what the joke here is, or what it's satirizing. What's funny about Rosenthal pretending he made the film? I seriously do not know.
Blockistic Nolan's notorious for all the adaptations he makes and how he rarely ever has original stories.
***** "Th3Cynic commented on a video: 'good jaaab' - 'Adele - Someone Like You (Boyce Avenue acoustic cover) on iTunes & Spotify'."
I dunno, man. I was gonna ask you the same thing. How does it feel to have the same tastes as a menstruating 14 year old girl?
Oh Cracked, go make another articles about how gamers hate women.
That "The Prestige" joke was perfectly in line with the movie itself
Alright, alright, alright.
Nerdist oh, hi. How’s muskwatch going?
1,000,000 strong for Peter Rosenthal's name to be switched with Chris Nolan's.
I feel for you, Peter. Nolan stole from me too. Not one film but an entire Trilogy about this Superhero I created called The Batman
Nolan stole 'Tenet' off me but I feel I'll owe him a lifelong debt of gratitude for that.
I guess you gave it to him as just a bunch of loose dvds of random scenes.
Some people aren't familiar with the Onion apparently.
Before this video started I thought: " I bet Nolan stole this idea from Rosenthal!". BAM!!
I was right.
Peter, get your sh*t together and stop giving other people your ideas. Remember what happened with "Lord of the Rings"? Yeah...
As I left the movie theater I heard a guy saying to his girlfriend "Well, there's 3 hours we'll never get back" and I thought "People like you are the reason Adam Sandler is allowed to keep making movies."
LOL!
Now that was funny, unlike this video but the onion can't hit it out the park every time.
You don't have to understand every little bit of a movie to enjoy the overall story arc and visuals; not very many of us understood the science in "Interstellar" (and I personally was irritated at the sappy bullshit about him traveling to a different dimension only to end up behind his daughter's bookcase.

How can anyone not find this funny? I'm in tears right now!
Still funny. Still in tears.
Also fuck spammers.
I like how you came back to this comment years later.
@@kebz9303 It's in my depression folder, a.k.a. my RUclips default Favorites list.
Also, still funny. Genuinely, in tears. It's great.

Jay YT angry birds Star Wars is better then angry birds space.
I know how you feel. The Parisian Academy of Filmatography stole my film a trip to the moon in 1899.
hey I was mugged too. That was MY MOVIE. I sent it via FedEx to Christopher Nolan.

Did you find my charger?

Some people don't like this kind of humor. That's fine. I think this guy is hilarious.
Poor Peter, everyone just walks all over him.
I feel really bad for you.... you know I am a professional at what I do. If you want your movie back, just give me your name, address, SSN, and credit card information and I am sure you will be pleased!
I lost it @ "I should've learned my lesson after he stole Inception from me!" Hahahhaha
Huge if true. #shenanigans
are you kidding me
Give Peter the credit he deserves!
Hey!! I wrote this review!! Rosenthaaaaaallll!
I desperately wanted the sign-off to be him in a straightjacket in a padded cell.
You think he feels bad, I was actually IN Interstellar until Nolan got ahold of it. I was Mann, the astronaut who was stranded on the ice planet.

*I won't go and see this movie until Pete gets his movie back, dammit!* :-D
You guys are nuts, Peter Rosenthal could find a way to make tax filing funny, and this was great.
Peter we all feel your pain of such betrayal. #MeToo
Maybe he just wanted to keep it as a Memento?
This video is 10% humor
90% heart-wrenching
ThePharphis 100% oscar worthy
ThePharphis And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!
The K. in Peter K. Rosenthal stands for pathos.
I must have only seen 90% if the video then
it is late at night and this has made me genuinely sad somehow
This man is seriously good theater actor.
I don't think people get that this is The Onion saying "We literally couldn't find anything to make fun of, we liked it that much."
You're an idiot to limit material open to several interpretations to one you choose then talk on behalf of the Onion.
kaledovic As serious as you took what I said, saying "you're an idiot" sounds a lot more like projection
Lightspeed You wish but alas.
Most Onion reviews have very little to do with the content of the movie itself.
This was so funny I almost hyperventilated. Give me more film standard reviews, Onion!
This is so heartbreaking, Nolan is the worst. I believe you Peter!
This is fantastic, why would anyone dislike this video is a masterpiece of both acting and writing
Don't feel too bad, P. David Fincher stole all of my movies too. Except for Safe Room--that was all Fincher.
DrRestezi Panic Room?
ass room
This dude is seriously an amazing actor, should teach classes if he can't get actual film roles.
as the ghost of christopher nolans accomplice I can confirm that he killed me to cover up this fact
Why haven't I found this before? Peter, you're hilarious and I'm subscribing.
I'm glad everyone loves this guy's joke reviews, except for Dirty Dancing, which everyone seems to think is the only one that is deadly serious and "has a point".
Welp
I know right, why didn't anybody get that he was saying some perverted things about a minor and packaging his opinions like it's totally reasonable.
I love the distinction he draws between Matthew and Jessica vis a vis "Hollywood backstabbing". This gave me quite the laugh.
I am sorry, Peter. Even Christopher did the same thing with me.
I'll see you in court, Rosenthal! How dare you?!
I got an Interstellar ad for an Interstellar review xD
Perhaps you could explain to me Peter, When Cooper found himself behind Murphys bookcase why did he not push the books aside and enter his daughters room? He would have been home yrs before he left, he had the mathmatics needed to save humanity and since there were now 2 Coopers, one older than the other he/they could spent time with both children. Then his boy could have turned out better too.
Imagine if Chris actually saw this plea
#justiceforrosenthal
Which black hole did you visit to film the space scene? I'm sure that where most of the budget went, right?
This guy directed The Dark Knight Trilogy!
I thought I was aware of plagiarism in Hollywood, but now I found this and feel enlightened. This channel has great videos.
I enjoy every Rosenthal review, this one included. Incidentally, it has more views than any Onion video in months within 10 days of release. Was this featured somewhere else?
Im blown away by the satirical flattery. I cant wait to see interstellar now.
"Abracadabra!" - Chris Nolan
Give the man his movie back chris!
What the fuck, Rosenthal. Quit stealing my reviews.
Final "The Onion Reviews" will be Rosenthal blowing his brains out on camera
It's like when Pete Spielberg stole Schindler's Fist from me. I've never been the same.
Nolan should be ashamed of himself.
if he changed the launch scene then i mean its not really yours anymore
Awww poor Peter! How can any one steal from such a great guy?
i feel ya peter, someone pulled the same shit on me last year. always watermark your films; that's what i've learned
I Remember when I showed Mr. Nolan my scripts for The Dark Knight Trilogy. He told me it was crap and there was no way that Christian Bale would put his career in jeopardy for this "trite". Next thing I know, there's three new batman movies and I haven't seen a cent or Mr. Nolan since!
#JusticeForPeter
That’s really low that Nolan stole his movies like that. Rosenthal should sue him or something.
It would have been funnier if he had said that he's going to make the movie in the future and then send it back in time to Christopher Nolan's childhood bedroom in Morse code.
This sounds just like that time back in high school when My friend copied my homework and got more marks than me. Smh! 😂
This is a million times more nuanced than anything from On Cinema including Tim’s trial. Peter K Rosenthal is an absolute legend
"But he just put a copy of The Prestige in there!"
#GivePeterBackHisMovie
Someone give Peter his movie back
I'M VERY EMOTIONAL RIGHT NOW!
Inception is far better than Interstellar! there! I said it!
Marcelo Spagnolo false
The people disliking this are on that Annoying orange/Jamie Kennedy level of humor. Probably think that Ricegum is actually rich too. Lol
Hey man, you stole my pain.
How do you come up with this stuff.
Same thing happened when I wrote the script of an alcoholic agent who fights everybody. I called it Expectations....but the director stole it and now it's called Spectre.
Looks like "Peter's Fish house" paid off after all.
“You can make your own movies... Just leave mine alone.”
i keep telling people i wrote Undercover Brother but nobody believes me
*Rosenthal could make his own channel and make millions*
I should've assumed that because it was a review there'd be spoilers, but still it's like...goddammit.
All you cruel people saying this isn't funny, shame on you for even trying to laugh at this poor mans misery. Shame on you.
And Chris stop stealing other people's movie, I didn't say anything when you stole Dark Knight but this has gone too far, JUST STOP !
This should be on the news and going viral!!!!
Im amazed Christopher Nolan hasnt said anything about this yet
That was a really great performance, actually. Peter looks really hurt! I laughed when he said $130 million!
Exact thing happened to my great great great grandfather he is not native English speaker, after he wrote Shesha and Shoren he gave that to Shakespeare for grammar and spelling check Shakespeare told him he needs time my great great great grandfather ok with that, after few months later Shakespeare release his play Romeo and Juliet and nobody believes my great great great grandfather it was his original work Shesha and Shoren 😢😢😢😢
Poor Peter. I know just how he feels. I felt the same way when my friend Alfonso Cuaron stole Gravity from me.
My english is not quite good and i'm not able to get the message... He is saying that Nolan is not able to make his ''own'' movies? It's hard to explain that in english... He is saying that Nolan does not want to make a ''real'' film.
Cristian Dalalai Dude this umm.... CORRECT!!
Rest In Pieces Peter K. Rosemthal. ;'^( nvr forgetti.
Nolan did a pretty good upscale to 1080p though.
Woah, is this guy Harlan Ellison?
This is the most realistic space movie ever ever.
