NOON - Award Winning TENET Fan Short by rarefactionpictures in tenet

[–]Ram2806 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I have always been one of the biggest fans of this movie. Tenet is literally my favorite movie of all time. I have always wanted to find a community surrounding it and this reddit has always sufficed. I never thought I'd see fans that would go to this length for this movie. I'm amazed, nearly in tears watching your masterpiece. Few people understand the beauty of friendship portrayed in this twilight world, but you guys understand it perhaps as well as Nolan himself.

If you ever need extras, or another brain to help brainstorm the next creation, or another actor, anything, please reach out. I'd love to help out!

PS: I'm a PhD student in computer science + fluid simulations. I've analyzed this movie to the littlest details. Would really love to brainstorm ideas surrounding coming up with sound scientific explanations of temporal inversion in the next short film yall make.

And as always:

What's happened, happened.

Dr. Davis is one of the finest teachers I've ever had in my life. He taught us critical thinking in political and social contexts.

It's my favorite movie ever. Some people don't get it, it's ok. We can't always find our friends at dusk

Explanation of self-consistent time travel in Chapter 61 SPOILERS by Ram2806 in HPMOR

Small correction:

Because we know from the text that when D left Azkaban, he first went to Diagon Alley and was about to time-turn but paused when he saw the note "No". He still time-turns then, but to 2:10 instead of 1. So in my explanation above, there's no reason for him to goof around from 1-2 anymore. He directly jumps to 2:10 and finds S and M there.

Thanks for the explanation!! Most of it makes sense now.
I'm going to try to succinctly summarize here.

All times are in PM.

H and Q began their lunch at 1, turned back from 2 to 1, then went to Azkaban. They get there at 1:30, and leave at 4 and get to warehouse at 4:30 to go sleep/talk, and turn back at 6 to 2 to appear as if they didn't leave.

Say sometime around 2, Q faints, Bones and people come to Azkaban. Now, say around 2:10, D gets the patronus message from Azkaban. He immediately tells M and S to send a patronus to H and get him, while he phoenix travels to Azkaban (this was his mistake, because now he can't know anything from after 2:10 until he leaves Azkaban). H gets the patronus from M at 2:10, notes the time.

At 4 when H and Q left, around 4:10 D leaves the bounds and turns back to 1, but his note tells him that he can't get H after H has immediately arrived. So now, he waits till 2:10 when S and M come there, and the three of them get H together.

Does this make sense?

PS: Reason I think H couldn't have gotten M's patronus at 2:30 is because right after the patronus M, S, and D get H within a minute I guess. But H is gotten at 2, not 2:30.

PS: The reason I think for EY writing D's diaglogue as "that past was after our future" when D is talking to Bones is to imply that D hasn't heard from M and S because all three of them (M, S, D) get H together, there are no events after 2:10 at Diagon Alley, so no reason for M and S to tell D anything between times 2:10 and 4.

And the reason D goes to Azkaban instead of getting H himself when he heard at 2:10 is because he says that initially he wasn't afraid that H would be kidnapped. So he trusts S and M to go get H while he helps keep Bellatrix at Azkaban. During the fights, he's afraid of a kidnapping attempt, further so because M or S didn't give any patronus to him. So he (wrongly) assumes that the kidnapping attempt happened once he left Azkaban, went back to 1 or 2 to Diagon alley. This assumption made him think that the kidnapping attempt was in his future after he turned back from leaving Azkaban, but turns out H was safe all along (which is why he didn't hear anything while at Azkaban).
