Some of the scientists doing testing on the new plutonium core got a little reckless in how they handled it. In the scene above, the demon core goes prompt critical (I think that’s what it is called) and everyone in the room received a lot of radiation exposure. Unfortunately for Slotin (Think this is him — there were two scientists killed by the demon core), the amount of radiation he received was fatal.
As a scientist well educated in radioactivity and the math behind exposure amounts, he knew as soon as he separated the two cores that he was a walking dead man. It must have been really depressing to realize your life was now over and you were living on borrowed time just from a few seconds of exposure from something that was extremely radioactive (and I don’t use that word lightly, that thing was putting out some serious levels of radiation).
In fact, I heard stories that some of the scientists saw a lot of blue in their vision and that it was related to a type of radiation that is created when it travels through water (I forget the name for this type of radiation — I think it starts with a K?).
“They gave out dark glasses that you could watch it with. Dark glasses! Twenty miles away, you couldn’t see a damn thing through dark glasses. So I figured the only thing that could really hurt your eyes (bright light can never hurt your eyes) is ultraviolet light. I got behind a truck windshield, because the ultraviolet can’t go through glass, so that would be safe, and so I could see the damn thing.” – Richard Feynman
In theaters July 21, 2023
A new IMAX trailer is playing before Avatar starting tomorrow.
***This is Fine***
The second entry in the series of movies where Cillian Murphy ends up staring at blindingly bright things.
This is an actual pic of Cillian Murphy watching Christopher Nolan detonate an actual bomb on set
I like how IMAX is bigger font than stars and director.
This film feels like a special event In the HOLLYWOOD. Like something really special, IDK why but It does.
Well this poster certainly takes your attention.
I hope this is another great movie featuring Cillian Murphy staring at bright lights
I am really excited for this movie.
Looks like a weezer album cover
The new Maxell Cassette Tape ad.
So many people “joined” this movie that I didn’t know that Matt Damon or RDJ were in it.
That poster makes me feel excited and curious about the movie. It’s really convincing!
I can already not hear the dialogue over the amazing visual effects
Sick.
“I know Scarecrow is a smaller role, Cillian, but stick with me and I’ll put you in a lead role in maybe two or three or seventeen years.”
I’m just happy for a poster that isn’t floating heads.
Cillian’s gonna smash it
All looks good unless Nolan complicates the plot with confusing screenplay, in audible dialogues and throws in some time paradoxes.
I hope Nolan doesn’t mess up the audio again. My wife was not pleased that I dragged her to watch a movie with bad audio in the middle of COVID.
ZA GOGGLES DO NOTHING!
I demand to see the movie poster with all the floating heads. how can I be sure this is a real movie without it??
At first glance I thought that was the Jim Carey’s Grinch scene where he rigs a sleigh like a rocket
Based on the Pulitzer Prize winning Kai Bird & Martin Sherwin book.

Opinion: I would urge you to support your local book store or library, not Amazon, if you should choose to turn some tactile or digital pages.
I really like it but I kinda wished the poster would be in black and white
This fucks.
The Trinity test was 25 kilotons. I wouldn’t put it past Nolan to truck in that much conventional explosives to get an authentic experience.

C. Nolan.
I can already hear this movie.
I really hope they have some scenes from the demon core. This scene in particular was amazing in a previous movie:

Anyway, looking forward to the movie!
