What the fuck why on earth would you destroy all of those prints. At least keep a few around. I get they’re massive and heavy but you can bet your ass Nolan is rich enough he’d probably have foot the bill to store at least a handful off site somewhere.
Edit: give them museums! Universities! Hobbyists! Whoever!
The film is approximately 11 miles long and weighs 600 pounds. It’s not a simple thing to store.

I didn’t say it was simple to store but destroying all copies without even informing the director/producer?
Unfortunately it happens a lot more than you think. There’s only so much space and tons of movies to store. This is not a one-off.
I’m not saying you shouldn’t be upset though. Just saying it’s not unusual.
Yup. I worked on a reality & at the end, we had to wrap all of our camera masters out to Bravo.
Something like 160 bankers boxes stuffed with 20-30 IMX loads, or roughly 2,000 individual IMX cassettes.
Not two years later & we started to see our camera masters wiped, recycled, & reused in circulation.
You are NOT supposed to use used media when recording a show, it’s written rather plainly in the network delivery specs, but… networks are cheap as hell
They don't own it. 🤷♂️
