I think he could make a good Star Wars, and Rogue One is almost close to what I could see a Nolan-directed Star Wars film be. However, I think the themes he regularly puts into his films would be too adult for the family audiences that Star Wars caters to.

Nolan could do anything. But this is idle speculation as he would not do it under the current regime unless very desperate. And he would likely want to do a darker chapter, like Revenge of the Sith, Empire or most likely the war-drama Rogue One.
His filmmaking style would fit better with some of the less defined spin off materials, like a Old Republic trilogy that the GoT creators likely plan.
That being said, I had much preferred him over JJ Abrams and/or Rian Johnson.

IMO He's too good for Star Wars but yeah he'd make a good enough (dark/gritty) SW film if he were up to it . Certainly much better than the shit Disney is shoveling out these days . ugh. Also I think he's too good for Bond as well. Glad he isn't wasting his time directing a Bond film right now. Don't worry, I'd gladly take the Disney Star Wars over the shit Nolan makes. That's because you're a moron. ETA: and yeah, Nolan could make a good SW if he were properly motivated to do so. |

I imagine it would be similar to Rogue One if he did. My thoughts exactly. I'm pretty sure he'd make a good movie in or out of the universe consisting the classic characters. I think he'd excel in a one-off like "Rogue One" with characters of his own creation and vision. |

I was thinking that too, but then I remembered Empire isn't too different tonally from Nolan. How is Empire anything like something Nolan would have come up with? Just because something is a slightly darker take on something doesn't automatically mean it's similar to Christopher Nolan. Where did I say it was "something Nolan would have come up with"? I merely compared the tone of it to his films, which must not be too outlandish since you immediately zeroed in on the darker element. Empire is also methodically paced and the least fantastical of the franchise, for those who see Nolan as "boring realism man who can't handle Star Wars". |

If any, this could be Nolan's favorite. |

Because I don't like empty, pompous movies made by a guy who relies on OTT empty action sequences, plot heaviness and dull road-sign dialogue. Yep, I'm not surprised you would like that box office dirge. You're a joke. You and the other creep have no credibility when talking about film. |

But he's worlds better than the McDisney drivel you're saying is better, so... yeah, I'll gladly go on record as saying pretty much any Christopher Nolan movie is a better "film" than any of the Disney Wars flicks released to date. You have no credibility when talking about anything. Go play your GameCube that you prolly just got last week. And like it. |

If any, this could be Nolan's favorite. I think the crown jewel of weird creatures is the hentei squid monster that mindrapes Riz Ahmed. But okay, even if R1 is the least fantastical, I still feel Empire is more Nolan. When he had the Batman franchise, he didn't endlessly parade fanservice cameos from DC characters or use CGI to bring back Heath Ledger. And outside of Dunkirk, his movies are about characters and ideas, with revenge being a common theme (ie Luke in Empire). And even Dunkirk had a reason to be so blunt and straightforward. It didn't just forget to develop the characters while it was meandering for the first hour. |
