I'd prefer to describe it as "engages" rather than "manipulates".

[@gundoggydog]

But we need to get clicks bro

[@shashankvats753]

Exactly

[@shashankvats753]

​@@gundoggydog and exactly 😂

[@jomarilo.]

You can manipulate play dough too. I think you are confusing "manipulating" with "taking advantage of"

[@compozly]

Does someone know who designed his thumbnail ?

[@NoCluYT]

I'm almost certain he did it himself. Most youtubers do their own thumbnails and channel graphics.

[@pandakso3365]

Gemtus?

[@Rizky-Gumilar]

Insane how so many new gen filmakers hate Nolan cos he prefers shooting on film over digital camera, demanding theatrical experience over streaming service and using practical effects over cgi. Sad indeed

[@K.C-2049]

I mean I'm Nolan critical but it's not for any of those reasons. his technical work is really what makes him so great. for me it's that his characters and dialogue are always so gosh darn clunky and and fraught with exposition, and then the characters just explain how they feel about things lol and that's not to say I dislike him at all, I just find I get taken out of his films quite often. Oppenheimer was a fantastic film though, really liked it!

[@jomarilo.]

So Marvel is the McDonalds and Burger King while Christopher Nolan is any local steakhouse?

[@zamexnox]

Yeah sure, why don't you tell that to perfect blue and paprika.
