    those big bangs out in the desert was the usa illegally dropping nuclear bombs on Navajo Nation and killing people for generations

      1 what are you smoking 2 where can I get some

      March 8, 2024 at 3:46 pm

      The Navajo Nation? I think you are mistaken 😂 . I don’t think the test explosions for Oppenheimers special effects hurt anyone. And the US never dropped nukes on their own people

    The explosion was kinda mid

      The wide shot looked dogshit. It looked TOO tall and not that wide, that’s the only bad thing. I think the close ups were great though

    And that’s how you answer like a politician!

    That nuclear explosion was a bit of a let down honestly. I feel like they could’ve easily given a bigger bang and mushroom cloud with todays special effects

  7. @mathewblanc9936

    March 8, 2024 at 4:03 pm

    Imo he’s taken the idea of ‘no CG’ too far in this case. Watch any video of a real nuclear explosion, then watch the one in Oppenheimer… It’s a let down. It is so obviously a bunch of gasoline being blow up. It doesn’t have the scale or aggressiveness of a nuke. It didn’t inspire awe and horror in the same way as a nuke. A bit of CG would have amplified this scene and made it better.

    • @spinner735

      March 8, 2024 at 7:03 pm

      not only that but they actually did use cg in the process. they just started with things they filmed.

    • @EvanSchurr

      March 10, 2024 at 9:54 am

      Yeah this was a huge misstep. If you look at the early nuke tests it looks nothing like Nolan’s movie. There is like a ball of plasmised air at first and then the big explosion/mushroom cloud as a giant shockwave of ejected earth races across the ground. Nolan’s explosion was a huge whiff, I almost laughed in the theater

  8. @noneshere

    March 8, 2024 at 4:04 pm

    That documentary was terrible and very low budget done imo.

  9. @sleekblackroadster

    March 8, 2024 at 4:13 pm

    It didn’t look right

  10. @user-xw7oh3vh3h

    March 8, 2024 at 4:26 pm

    Why not let us know the tricks? It’s not that I’m going to do it in the yard of my house right now 😅

    • @Donnerwamp

      March 8, 2024 at 4:55 pm

      Probably because he used a different explosive in a bomb size of 10kT of TNT to recreate the explosion.

  11. @spinner735

    March 8, 2024 at 7:02 pm

    lies. they used a ton of cg

  12. @corruptduboiscountyindiana5058

    March 8, 2024 at 8:18 pm

    the us govment was faking them back in the 50s and 60s

  13. @reddr4ke884

    No cg…. Sorry, what the fu-
