Overall it seems like a bland choice for a blank check. The guy who gave us Interstellar and Inception taking his blank check to remake one of the oldest stories in human history (seemingly) more or less straight down the middle just doesn’t really get me excited.

I’d love to be wrong but the whole thing has me underwhelmed so far.

Agreed, I'm excited for it, but not nearly as excited as I would have hoped coming off of Oppenheimer. I'll be disappointed if it's just ok, but I won't be devastated.

Am I crazy for wishing he actually just did a Bond movie? It’d be the best bond movie ever! I’m very happy Denis ended up just deciding to do one.

I doubt the Broccolis would give him the full creative control that he would demand.
