So many particulars. So many questions.
the way the sex scene in oppenheimer has been talked up I expect it to be 10 mins of actual filth. But niether. I'm only going cinema for Dune pt 2. I'll download oppenheimer tho.

Looking forward to both.
Although there's confusion as to when we'll get Opp released.

I keep reading it as Oberheimer, which I’d probably watch. But it isn’t that. So I voted neither.

Barbie first, though for no particular reason except opportunity and convenience
Need to go to an IMAX to watch (or, more, particularly, hear) any Nolan pic recently.

It'll be fine. Have had a crush on Cillian for years and that's as far as it goes.

I'll watch Oppenheimer when it hits streaming. I shall give Barbie a miss for the rest of this life.

I'm doing Oppenheimer first on Saturday, and then Barbie on Sunday.

Fucksake, I did want to see Oppenheimer but I'm not going to make it 3 hours without needing the loo or stretching my legs, might wait til I can watch it with a pause button and the comfort of my sofa.

Barbie looks fun. Will probably be fun.
Oppenheimer looks impressive. Will probably be overlong, difficult to hear, and needlessly overcomplicated. Also still looking impressive.

No matter how good or bad either of these films will be, the memes alone will make them worth it.

Are they showing a condensed version too, perhaps about 30 minutes? Should be enough time to tell the story.
Three hours is stupid for a film - couldn't cope with having to sit in a cinema with other people for three whole hours.

I wanted to see Barbie but I’m seeing Oppenheimer next week. Can’t say I’m looking forward to it. I doubt it’s my sort of thing and I do not have the attention span to watch a 3 hour film. Still I might be surprised and enjoy it although I heard today that the director is the chap who made Interstellar which is the worse film I have ever suffered.

It seems long, but then I’ve watched plenty of films in the 2h 45m- 3h+ range that were so enjoyable, time passed like a breeze, or at least not any slower than your average 1h 50m flick.
The Godfather was worth 3 hours. I didn’t see it in a cinema though.

Are they (aimed at different markets), though? I want to see both of them equally!

I’m happy doing both for those certain films that should really be watched at least once on a proper big screen to get the maximum enjoyment out of it. I’m not going to miss the spectacle of Oppenheimer or other such visual feasts on a proper massive screen with ear-busting surround sound simply because I will need to go to the loo at least once due to their running time.
Go during a lull, miss 3-4 minutes tops, and simply catch up with the unseen footage when you watch it the second time at home, as you’ll invariably will if you liked it.
Why would a grown adult want to see a Barbie film? The mind boggles.
