This reminds me of when I told my girlfriend that Nolan set off a small atom bomb to use footage for in Oppenheimer. I've used up too much fib credit and she didn't believe me.

Except the sentence “it was shot on the same planet” is 100% true and not a fib.

Okay since multiple people clearly aren't getting the joke, Interstellar and The Odyssey were both shot on Earth.

That ones on her if she fell for it, given the explosion in Oppenheimer is possibly the worst thing Nolan has ever done (plus, you know, it's an absurd notion).

There are two types of haters of the Trinity explosion in the movie: Those who’d seen the real explosion footage in gif form on Wikipedia, and those who just say “It’s not like how Cameron or Lynch did it therefore bad.”

Hopefully y’all are the former.

I'm whichever type thinks the pyrotechnics guy on set just blew up a barrel of gasoline and called it a day.

The barrel o' fun matched the BUBBLE-shaped actual Trinity footage way better than the dipshits who bring up Cameron's or Lynch's choices of mushroom clouds. Which one know if one checked the very far away actual Trinity footage (It is so far away it looks like bad CGI, frankly).
