John David Washington is Denzel's son and is turning out to be a very good actor.  He played football at Morehouse, but being only 5'9 and running a 4.7 40 isn't good. He was on the Rams roster as a UDFA in 2006 and spent 4 years in the USFL before going into acting full time.

I just read a news article saying that WB may not remain committed to the July 17 release date. If East and West Coast theaters remain closed or are open at a greatly reduced capacity, they might push it back. If they decide to do that, how far is anybody’s guess.

I noticed that the first trailer I saw said that Tenet opens on July 17. This one simply says Coming to Theaters. So I am buying the notion that we don’t know when we will see it. It’s a huge movie, though. I doubt WB will ever dump it straight to streaming.

I have been a huge fan of Nolan since Memento and very much want to see this on a big screen.

Nolan's a beast. 

Inception. Interstellar. Batman. Dunkirk. The dude cannot make a bad movie.

Interstellar is one of my favorite movies of all time. Some people just have it. He's got it.

A lot of his movies have glaring plot holes and ham-fisted writing.  With that said, he's one of the only working directors right now where you can walk into the movie with at least a modicum of hope that you are going to see something fresh and original.  He's better than his peers in the "big budget epic" space but that's a really low bar.

Still not entirely sure what this movie is about, but I'm super intrigued by it. Seems similar to Inception, but with time instead of dreams.

The quote "Doesn't us being here now mean it never happened" means we're in for another mind fuck of a movie like Interstellar and Inception

Looks like a mixture of Memento, Insomnia, The Prestige, Batman Begins, Inception, Interstellar and Dunkirk.  But at least we know that where Christopher Nolan goes, Michael Caine is sure to follow.

I wonder whether the character played by Himesh Patel has to tattoo lyrics of Beatles’ songs on his body in order to regain his memories.

This looks original, doesn’t look good. Looks way too mainstream and action packed. I will give it a chance though, probably when it comes to Netflix in 2 years.
