That’s easy, QT. First, most of Nolan’s movies are adapted frhttp://<LINK_TEXT text=“www.tarantino.info/forum/index.php?topi … ickreplyom”>www.tarantino.info/forum/index.php?topic=9571.msg245188;boardseen#quickreplyom</LINK_TEXT> a source material. People praise him to high heavens but he didn’t come up with most of the plot ideas in his movies himself. Second, most of his films rely on gimmicks. Remove the backward chronology from Memento and you’re left with an average thriller. Remove the Joker from DK and you’re left with an average crime film. Thirdly, some of his films are overrated beyond belief. The Prestige? That’s one of the most retarded movies I have ever seen.

In terms of how well they can direct, they’re on par with each other.
