We’re going to podcast about Inception and The Dark Knight Rises. When the conversation is done, and the recording is finished processing, then you have my permission to die.
RETRO//RANKED is a Rolling Tape network series ranking the individual entries of beloved franchises and filmographies, timed to major new releases. For season 7, we’re diving into the complete filmography of Christopher Nolan, building episode by episode, two films at a time, toward the release of his latest film, The Odyssey.
Inception is Christopher Nolan’s seventh movie. It was released on July 13, 2010. For better or worse, Nolan is credited as the sole writer of the film. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Nolan explained that he based the roles of the Inception team similar to roles that are used in filmmaking. Cobb is the director, Arthur is the producer, Ariadne is the production designer, Eames is the actor, Saito is the studio, and Fischer is the audience.
The Dark Knight Rises is Nolan’s eighth movie. Like the previous film in the trilogy, it was co-written by Christopher Nolan, alongside his brother Jonathan Nolan off a story by Chris Nolan and David S. Goyer. The film released on July 20, 2012, four years and two days after The Dark Knight. The wait must have been excrutiating.
Enjoy all VIDEO episodes of SEASON 7 one week ahead of their public audio-only release.
