First, we asked Nolan about how his shows characters criticizing humanity.
The shows heroes sentient android hosts are presented as a more perfect successor to potentially replace their flawed creators.
Obviously, this show is a little out of step with its misanthropy, he began dryly.
No, its a fing disaster, he said.
Its a fing total disaster.
And every time I turn on the news Im provided with fodder for our discontent.
I think our timing might have been exactly right on.
Listen, Im surrounded by the wonders of the creations of human beings.
But yeah, you turn on the fing news and its a stshow.
Its like we just cant figure these fing things out.
We come back to them again and again.
Wherever we go, there we are.
And we just cant get out of our own fing way.
and personal growth and change.
At a certain point you gotta fing call it.
Were not going to fix this s, were not going to figure it out.
But theres an opportunity for thethingsthat replace us to do so.
And thats the dream of every parent, right?
That their child doesnt face the same things they do, that they make better choices?
So you say: At what point does this fix itself?
Or are we just stuck this way?
We asked Nolan if complaints from fans about getting lost amid the timeline jumps were valid.
Its all perfectly valid, Nolan said.
If it didnt track for some people, it didnt track.
But look, the first movie that I worked on [Memento] was told backwards, right?
Those are the people were making this show for.
Subsequent seasons will be structured in …differentways.
