Isn't he something to do with NCIS?

Ok so I need a bit of reassurance. Either I'm insane or I'm surrounded by morons.

Do you know who Christopher Nolan is?

This seems to be a very difficult question for people in my Real Life. I was telling my sister, Claire, that it'd been announced that Zack Snyder has been hired to direct the new Superman film. Not expecting that she would know who ( Read more... )

Well, for your peace of mind, I do know who Christopher Nolan is, so breathe deeply and remember YOU ARE NOT AN ISLAND AND WE ARE HERE TO HUG YOU BACK INTO SANITY, yeah?

Your second friend is not a film lover and can no longer call herself one. But she is a WOW person and WOW people are not connected to anything--not the world or even the world of the internet. They have their own world. I know this because I played for several months and I forgot what the color of the sun was. To not know who Christopher Nolan is to not know what color the sun is.

I wish I had a Memento icon to commemorate this journal entry. Because maybe your friends have no long term memory and can't make new memories...starting with when Christopher Nolan made Memento and Batman and BATMANNNNNNNNNNN. Oh and Inception.

Edit: BTW, I have nothing against your friends, I'm sure they're nice people :D I'm just against the notion that they don't know who he is.

LOL! You are SO unbelievably right. WoW is insane. I know this from dabbling in it myself on occasion- but I'm a pretty poor WoW player. I die a lot and suck at quests :(.

You may be onto something here...

Don't worry, if you haven't sacrificed most of your money, time, and friends--you're not a good WoW player. I think that's why I stopped playing. No matter how decent I was, everyone else still knew every. single. thing. about. WoW. So that meant I was a n00b who couldn't play the game and was not welcomed. Heh. Well I now happily mock them with my real money and real friends.

Batman rules all :D

Dude, even I knew who he is although it'd take me a few minutes to remember the stuff he's directed.

Don't forget though, this sort of stuff is your superpower.

If you even know who he is, then they are really in trouble. You're like the line. If they know less than you, then they really are unforgivable.

I never forget things like superpowers. *flexes superpower muscles*

I know, its very intriguing, isn't it? Zack Snyder has been one of the pagan gods I pray to ever since he presented us with 300 and the most ripped men in loin clothes the world has ever seen. If nothing else, the man's got cinematic style so we should *fingers crossed* be in for a treat!

Do not worry, even I know who Christopher Nolan is, didn't your friends watch the two latest Batman movies?? they were awesome. I still have to watch inception but i know he directed it too, so if you're weird then you're not alone ;)

They've both seen both Batman movies. Both have seen The Prestige. Both have at least heard of Inception. And yet both are still oblivious. *sigh* I think the evidence points them being the weirdos since I've had 6 comments in one night on here from people saying they know who Christopher Nolan is. OR maybe just LJ peeps are more likely to be clued in?

Then that's even more strange because they've seen more of his movies than me yet they don't know who he is
