Documentary/Biopic Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer

[Gothamsknight]

I'm genuinely curious what Nolan is planning on doing next now. He can literally do anything.

Even though i struggled with this movie (but i am anxious to re watch it again on video) I am incredibly happy for Nolan that this is smashing the box office. Once again, I underestimated general audience’s interests as i would have never ever ever thought a THREE HOUR action-less R rated period drama would make near this amount of money. I just did not picture mass audiences flocking to this type of subject matter en masse like this.

There was a time when I thought Tenet was going to be one of the most important films ever and save movie theaters. Instead, I think it turned out to be Oppenheimer.

Oppenheimer is just a more audience-friendly movie than Tenet, at least from a plot standpoint. Ironic since Tenet is the PG-13 action movie.

I think it's a far superior film to Tenet at least.

I'd love to see what he does with horror.

It's now reached $912 million worldwide. It's not a question of reaching $1 billion worldwide anymore. It's just a question of when. When awards season ramps up again, re-releases will surely put it over that mark, but can it do it before then?

For filmmakers, ‘Oppenheimer’s’ $900M-plus haul is an important moment for Hollywood and theaters

Hopes were always high for Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer.” The studio knew the film was great, and commercial, but no one in the industry expected that a long, talky, R-rated drama would earn over $900 million.

“Oppenheimer” is also continuing to play exclusively in theaters into the fall, in a time when even the biggest movies are often released in homes after just 45 days. Though its opening weekend companion, “Barbie,” is newly on video-on-demand, “Oppenheimer” won’t be available to watch at home until late November, Thomas said.

World-wide BO total is now $934M. Might make it to $950M. (I haven’t heard any news as to if or when the movie will be released in Japan — which is, usually, a fairly big market.)

Considering it's about the creation of a weapon that killed hundreds of thousands in Japan I doubt this is a movie they're eager to watch

That's exactly four months after the movie's release in cinemas. I remember a time when some people were mocking Nolan for wanting to stick to a 100+ days window, saying its absurd in this day and age.

Now at $945M. Could still make it to $950M. But without a Japan release (which doesn’t seem likely given the Nov. 21 home video date), that's where it will top out.

Unless… there’s a big re-release Oscar push…

'Oppenheimer' Is Returning to IMAX

Christopher Nolan's biographical drama is returning to IMAX Theaters for one week.

[Gee]

Christopher Nolan on ‘Oppenheimer’ Dominance, What Comes Next and Being ‘Absolutely’ Open to Returning to Warner Bros.

'Oppenheimer' director Christopher Nolan is stunned by the grosses, as well as the Oscar buzz, that the film is generating.

variety.com

Nolan is open to going back to WB.

For one thing, the media chiefs that Nolan came out swinging against are gone. AT&T, which had prioritized streaming above all else, sold a controlling stake in the company to Discovery in 2022. The newly rechristened Warner Bros. Discovery then installed CEO David Zaslav, setting the stage for Kilar’s exit. Zaslav also recruited new movie chiefs, Michael De Luca and Pam Abdy. So is Nolan open to working with Warner Bros. again?

“Oh yeah, absolutely,” he says. “Pam and Mike and Zaslav, they’re trying to do some great things with that studio, which is encouraging to see.”

I think it's about who will give him more for his next project. Universal will be fools to lose him after Oppie.

A major mistake there Oppie.

I'm definitely going to want to pick up the Best Buy steelbook, especially since they're discontinuing physical media next year (evil!).

That's exactly four months after the movie's release in cinemas. I remember a time when some people were mocking Nolan for wanting to stick to a 100+ days window, saying its absurd in this day and age.

It's pretty funny and amazing how this whole movie's release cycle has been one big masterclass in demonstrating the value of the traditional theatrical release cycle. I have no doubt the home release sales will be big too, which is an equally important part of the conversation IMO.

According to The Numbers, Oppenheimer has inched past $950M at the world-wide box office. (According to BOMojo, it's at $949M.)
