Poll of the Day > Favorite Nolan film?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Looking forward to Tenet...

---

Bump.

---

probably still Memento, but The Prestige and Inception are right behind it

---

As much as I love batman, the prestige is easily his greatest film.

---

I like Batman Begins and The Dark Knight (though I've never liked The Dark Knight as much as some people do, because it kind of feels overpraised simply because Heath Ledger died). But The Prestige is easily my favorite film he's ever done.

I'm not a huge Nolan fan in general, though - no matter how hard critics masturbate over it every time he comes out with a new film, most of what he's done kind of leaves me cold. Most of the other movies on that list are generally "meh" to me at best.

I'm sort of tentatively interested in Tenet, though. It's hard to tell from the trailers, but it seems like an interesting premise.

Didn't expect these results... (besides TDK I mean)

---

Dunkirk was awesome.

---

Its honestly the dark knight. I had no attachment to ledger before I saw it, so that had nothing to do with my opinion of the movie. Its just a great movie.

yeah the fact that its a great movie has nothing to do with it

TDK.

Was kinda okay with TDKR despite the dodgy choices, but wasn't that into BB. Read the spoilers/wiki for a few of his other films in the past, but haven't seen anything else.

---

Even though Im a die hard Batman fan...Inception is his masterpiece.

still love TDK though

Every time I see the Prestige I find it more and more incredible, the movie is a masterpiece and is one of those films that gets better on repeat viewings.

Something can be great and still be overrated.

Though I'd argue it's not even "great" as much as it's just "really good".

I find any of his movies that aren't part of the Batman series long-winded and boring as hell. Even the first Batman is hard to re-watch.

That's how the game is played though; as explained in "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back"

..do the paycheck gig, "then" do the art gig...

Obviously, WB wanted to reboot Batman after the shitty Clooney movie. And at that time Nolan hit it out of the park with Memento, so WB got their "patsy" to make their movie.

And with all that Batman money, Nolan made Prestige, Interstellar, Inception, and Dunkirk.....and honestly, he's received more acclaim from his non-Batman movies for it.

the prestige

Inception.

I thought it was because HL did a good job, but I guess not, fuck him anyways.

TDK is the best imo, but the prestige and memento are right there

Aaron Eckhart should have gotten more praise for his Two-Face

Ehhh

I found his performance to borderline on overacting. The writing might have partially been responsible. He was outperformed by every other main character in that movie.

As for the topic, I'd choose TDK as well, but I'll admit I've only seen the three Batman movies in that list.

lol I disagree man
