    haven't seen The Following or Insomnia

    The Prestige
    The Dark Knight
    Inception
    Batman Begins
    Memento
    The Dark Knight Rises
    Interstellar

    Memento
    has become wildly underrated by film people. sure, leo's isn't a dickens character. it's a smart, stunning popcorn flick.

    it's funny, looking at that list, i see seven films, and the only ones i'd be willing to sit down and re-watch are the first three and the first half of the fourth.

    It was alright, but there was one scene that kinda ruined it for me. Wasn't too thrilled with what lead up to the ending.

    Talking about the whole trapped in bookshelf land scene. Reminds me of the scene that ruined Contact, where
    Jodie Foster travels through the wormhole and see and talks to her father.

    Interstellar (could write an essay on why I love this film so much. It has more flaws than any of my favorite movies but I still love it. May not be his BEST film however it is my favorite)

    Memento (truly his best film)
    Prestige (could argue as #1 as well)
    Inception
    Insomnia
    Following
    Batman begins
    Dark knight
    Dark knight rises (poop movie other than bane and the opening sequence)

    1. The Prestige
    2. Memento
    3. Batman Begins
    4. The Dark Knight
    5. The Dark Knight Rises
    6. Interstellar / Inception

    I really like The Prestige and Memento, and I never understood the love for the other Nolan films I've seen. I guess saying Begins > TDK is an unpopular opinion too.
