"The Kiss of Death Mistake"
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Saw tenet for the second time glad I did!!!

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

People loved it or hated it, typical of a Nolan film.

Suspension of Disbelief is what we need right now, it was the greatest release it could of faced in my opinion... Was probably doomed if released alongside Star Wars or something.
I agree. While I love Nolan's films, I think this one may have been too much for the main stream public to digest.
It's interesting that he had the idea over 10 years ago framing it all together and then it took him 5 years to write the screenplay. Lot of thought process went into this just like many of his other films.
Inception is my all time favorite movie.
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I'm sort of looking forward to the release of Tenat on a streaming platform which will probably be in December. It is not like Dunkirk, where I had a sustained interest in viewing this even after a month it was released and was itching to see it, and eventually viewed it on IMAX. This one feels more blah hype-wise and the idea and don't feel as inspired to want to go out of my way to watch this. For a pandemic movie to really work, it has to outrank his other movies, not sit in the middle somewhere.
This is one case where they should have had a digital release along side the cinema release or just soon after, and if it's great, I'd go and want to watch it on IMAX once I clicked with the story if I wanted that type of experience.

Tenet just didn't do it for me, the plot didn't really interest me and I felt like this wasn't up there with Nolans other movies.
