Christopher Nolan's 'Tenet'

Their reputations were not "ruined" nor did they take "hit". Sometimes, it takes years or even a decade for people to "find" a film that had been discarded, only to become an all time classic years after the initial release.

Christopher Nolan and his reputation are going nowhere.

He's one more mediocre movie away from becoming M. Night. Especially if he does it for 3 consecutive movies.

M Night got knocked down. But he eventually came back.

Nolan's films have grossed more than $7 BILLION at the Box Office so he's allowed to have a few films that don't connect with an audience every now and then.

Everything isn't about revenue, it's about studios backing and associating with the best filmmakers of the day.

Oh, and I'm pretty sure that Warner Brothers and/or any studio would love to work with M. Night, especially considering his last movie cost $20 million to produce while generating $247 million at the box office.

That's an amazing ROI.
