Isn't this rip-off Quantum Break?


Inception rip-off Total Recall and The Thirteenth Floor.

Interstellar rip-off Lost in Space and Contact.

Is Nolan runs out of movies to rip-off, he begin to rip-off video game?

I used to like Nolan, but this is too much...

reply

Just curious: what was Dunkirk ripped off from?

reply

Maybe that is why Dunkirk suck so bad? When Nolan try not to rip off, Dunkirk is the outcome.

If they were legitimate rip offs you'd have more people calling it out.

reply

How do you know it's a rip off when we know nothing about the plot?

reply

Didn't you play Quantum Break?

reply

Nope, but my question still stands.

Quantum Break use the same device (or ability) as TENET show in the trailer.

Trailer keeps showing time manipulation, they can control particular object go back in time.

Quantum Break does the same thing, and more grandiose, like whole train runs through wall, but keeps go back in time again and again, so you can see train keeps break through wall, and pieces fly out and back.

Or the whole structure falling down and go back.

But in TENET, the biggest money shot is just a car flip...

Beside in TENET trailer, implies time travel:

"What the hell happened here?"

"Hasn't happened yet."

The whole Quantum Break story is all time travel. The best time travel story I play in video game.

reply

But how can you make a comparison when we don't know the full details of the Tenet plot, or if it is indeed time travel?

You are simply jumping to conclusions based on the little you see in the trailer.

reply

You don't have to rip off "plot" to be call rip off. There are a lot of things can steal from movie.

When The One trailer came out, people call that movie rip off The Matrix, not for plot, but visual style.

reply

Your rip off comparisons are hilarious. I'm a fan of all those films, and don't see any related rip-offness.
I guess any film involving space is a rip-off of 2001?
If you could be more vague, I would be on board. :D :D :D
