    Yep. My assumption at this point is the blockbusters get delayed to 2021, and the art house / Oscar's type movies will go to streaming (since they're allowing that for the next Oscars).
    There won’t be any theatres to play if they wait till 2021 I fear
    It's possible. As it stands now though that's a possibility even if they do open, because the movie studios aren't even really making movies right now either. So there's going to be a big drought either way. Better to have the drought now and postpone new releases, then risk infecting your customer base just to have the drought a year from now when things are safer.

    There have been a few movies that I have had to watch more than one time to fully understand and I am OK with that. I am still interested in seeing this. Will I see it in the theater, probably not. I will wait until I can watch
    it on my home theater.

    Art like Nolan's sometimes requires multiple viewings. You won't all the answers you're looking for in the first viewing. Where's the fun in that?

    While I like to have many viewings of well done films that I enjoy.... walking out with NO clue what the F is going on...IS NOT my idea of fun at the movies. I love all his films (just watched Insomnia last again actually) and have high hopes but for me the reviews ALL have the same issue and for me that issue will be bothersome.

    I think you'll be fine. If anything it'll make for some interesting discussion on here... once the rest of us get to see it sometime in 2021

    I love mind-bending films but even I had trouble understanding some of Interstellar. I felt it was more complicated than it needed to be, like the Nolans were showing off about their astrophysics knowledge rather than being concerned with crafting a better story.

    Inception definitely did a better job than Interstellar of making it easier for audiences to wrap their minds around things.

    Agreed. I watched it last night and had very little trouble following it.

    I followed Inception with no issue. All the levels did not confuse me. But I did pick up more detailed (fine minutia) kind of stuff on other viewings.

    Two of my pals watched the movie last night... Said some cool Matrix like effects but this movie is HANDS DOWN his worst to date. They were very disappointed. I am up in about 8 hours for my viewing!

    TENET may very well (is to me for sure) be Nolan’s best film while the Joker is his best character. I loved it. In every way. Seeing again next week. Commands it.

    I just cannot see why my pals hated it. I think they were not as “open” as me. There are so many “aha wow” moments in that film compared to any other. It’s the 2020 upper version Back to the Future. Just still smiling. Got tickets for next Tuesday again. IMAX this time. Did moving seats tonight.

    over 20000 user reviews and a very nice 8.2 on IMDB. I am not surprised... and all say see it again. I will be. I would say I will see this more in theatres than any other film.

    Well, I don't know if I will see it in the theater, but I am very anxious to this movie. I loved Inception. I loved Interstellar, and I am sure I will love this. BTW. Does anyone else think a sequel to Interstellar would be cool, or
    is it enough on it's own. I personally think it stands well on it's own but I think a well written sequel could be nice as well.

    I know this doesn't need to be said, but let's take a moment to applaud filmmakers like Nolan. Like or hate Tenet and his other films, at least we are getting original mainstream films from him. That's like a unicorn nowadays. There's a small handful of directors providing us with that.
