A curious thought. The Oppenheimer biopic sounds interesting, but repeat viewings of it?

"To take more, they will need to appeal outside their expected audiences - largely women, and couples on dates for Barbie; males, Nolan fans and art-house cinema buffs for Oppenheimer - and attract repeat viewings."

Can Tom Cruise in Mission: Impossible, Margot Robbie in Barbie and Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer really save cinemas?

Will Mission: Impossible, Barbie and Oppenheimer save cinemas?

The Super Mario Bros Movie has been much more successful than anyone predicted – and has shown audiences are going to the movies for the right release.

Oh god I read the words "Christopher Nolan’s epic biopic" in that article, and with sinking heart I looked up Oppenheimer runtime: 3 hours. Just no. Will wait for it on streaming.

@sister_ratched Sick of bloated overlong movies by auteur directors that people won't say no to.

@timrichards Fair enough. I saw the shorts at the cinema this week and it looks pretty gruelling, despite the wonderful Cillian 💜 Murphy.
