    100% this. His movies are unwatchable at this point. I got through maybe half of Tenet and just gave up. Was loving the story but having to use subtitles and turn the volume up and down constantly, I just gave up.

      Which is a damn shame because the dialogue in Tenet is amazing. I love that movie.

      “I ordered my hot sauce an hour ago.”

      “Lying is the Standard Operational Procedure.”

      “I realized I wasn’t working for you. We’ve both been working for me. I’m the Protagonist.”

      Sator: “This is where our worlds collide. How would you like to die?”

      The Protagonist: “Old.”

      Sator: “You chose the wrong profession.”

      The Protagonist: “You wanna crash a plane?”

      Neil: “Well, not from the air. Don’t be so dramatic.”

      The Protagonist: “Well, how big a plane?”

      Neil: “That part is a little dramatic.”

      The Protagonist: “I’ll manage. You British don’t have a monopoly on snobbery, you know.”

      Sir Michael Crosby: “Well, not a monopoly. More of a controlling interest.”
