So is it available online? Not going in stoned on this one
Weird plothole that oppieās big villian plot was to build a device that instantly vaporizes all the drinking water, but leaves human bodies intact.
I am gonna watch the free versions so I can compare if it was really worth the big budget treatment
The opera Doctor Atomic, which was commissioned to portray Oppenheimer as a modern-day Faust.
The play In the Matter of J. Robert Oppenheimer, which first aired on German television, then received theatrical release in Berlin and Munich in October 1964. Oppenheimerās objections (he passed in 1967) resulted in an exchange of correspondence with Kipphardt, in which the playwright offered to make corrections but defended the play.
After reading a transcript of Kipphardtās play soon after it began to be performed, Oppenheimer threatened to sue the playwright, decrying āimprovisations which were contrary to history and to the nature of the people involvedā.
The spiritual sequel produced just twenty years after Oppenheimerās death

And yet you speak fluent enough German to be spoiled by an opera from Berlin 
So Oppenheimer is a prequel to Armageddon, right?

Ah I see no one has yet spoiled the time travel aspect.
Did you see Flashpoint yet? Itās sort of considered to happen at the same time. Warner Bros at least let that much be clear despite Nolan taking the movie to Universal.

So Iām watching some surrealist J-horror
Pulse (2001, donāt confuse this with Pulse 2006)
is just one of the best ghost stories Iāve seen in ages, Criterion should at least consider this. I started watching expecting it to be a basic 2000s The Ring knockoff. What I got instead was a heavy surrealist film about isolation and technology with a clear David Lynch influence. Great use of lighting and camera work and low-budget effects to make some really effective moments.
Jigoku (1960)
Maybe the biggest third act twist Iāve seen in a movie, you have a noir drama that instantly turns into a shockingly graphic depiction of the eight Buddhist hells. Surreal, wild, gory, pretty memorable film.

Along those lines - the film taking a more troubling turn late, culminating in the most gruesome, upsetting ending - Looking for Mr. Goodbar for me, for my situation
You seen Cleopatra 1963?

Haha there are so many movies called Pulse.
I have been researching an article about reassessing movies that were received as incredibly transphobic at the time but may have a lot to hold on to on hindsight.
Pulse 2017 made the cut

As for trans: to be honest, I doubt that most trans folk would view this film as containing, in any sense, an authentic trans narrative. But the selfish motivation for transitioning ā which is how a body swap will likely be viewed - the idea that a gay person will swap genders just so they can get to sleep with their boy crush, combined with Ollieās gender dishonesty: these are all commonplace as tropes already, explored ad nauseam by mainstream press and transphobes on a daily basis. And however much the filmās director protests this is not a trans film, that is how it will be read by wider audiences.
Vs other reviews
He incinerated the thing 
I feel like Iād watch the whole movie, but I think this full montage proves most of these are great little shots like this but canāt really be more fulfilling than this, even if you make a whole movie.
Hands up, anyone who had Tom Cruise being a fucking scab
