Oppenheimer

[pvr]

Great film, but surely they could get the Dutch bit right as that was nothing like Dutch.

Did enjoy it though.

Had to bee better than Barbie.?

Suppose Margot Robbie in Oppenheimer would have improved it though.

Probably couldn't find a native speaker in time

Glad Nolan didn't go all 'Nolan' on it and produce it in Sanskrit

Saw a documentary on Sky about Oppenheimer last night and it was excellent. Complex guy with obvious mental issues, but after what he was responsible for, understandable after Hiroshima and Nagasaki. A genius that even Einstein to some degree deferred to. Well worth a watch

His famous quote from Hindu scriptures says it all, “I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds”

It is interesting to think that it is very strongly the case that it finished the war at the time and saved a lot of lives (but also cost).

What is there to say what the impact would be if you did the same to Russia today, it would also save a lot of lives and could end their aggression.

I think the US would like to...but they won't as they'd expect Russia to initiate Global Thermonuclear War (i.e. Mutually Assured Destruction)...and China would come out as the winner.
