Episode #717: Oppenheimer (W❤️M) (Patreon)

“Oppie New Year!” - The Gang

On the first We ❤️ Movies episode of 2024, we’re chatting about a real-deal banger, and one-half of last year’s massively successful box office double bill, Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer! How fabulous is this cast? How funny is Oppie’s Batman moment? How wonderful is it to experience all these in-camera practical effects the masterful VFX team created? And couldn’t the U.S. Army have confiscated those bongos? PLUS: Who among us could run a hamburger stand, folks?
