I’m just excited that this is a thing that is actually happening and that Glover is returning for it.
I was just talking about Tenet the other night. Nolan at his worst. Uninspired story, flat characters, and a puzzle box gimmick that gets tiresome by the third act. And I liked Inception!

What am I not getting because I’m old
his gameness for weirdness is how we got the incredible gift of his decade-plus on It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia, after all.
