Nolanite - what is it?

A rabid Christopher Nolan fan who is unable to listen to genuine criticisms of his work or comprehend that there are people who dislike his work. Rabid Nolanites will often respond to dissenting opinions with threats of violence. The most famous example of this is when a group of Nolanites sent death threats to the film critics Christie Lemire and Marshall Fine for their negative reviews of The Dark Knight Rises.

Critic: Memento was an empty void without anything of value to say.
Fan: Get your head examined because something is wrong with you. Nolan is above you!
Critic: Wow! What a Nolanite!

What does "nolanite" mean?

Nolanites are obsessive fans of the Director Chris Nolan. (In particular, his take on the Batman franchise)
They worship him like a God and refuse to accept any criticism on his behalf.

Most Nolanites have seen all 3 movies in the Dark Knight trilogy, but have never picked up a comic book or watched a single Batman cartoon in their lives, yet in their eyes, Nolans word is final when it comes to Batman Mythology.

They will not accept that Nolan might have made some errors in his films and that certain aspects in his films do not compare to the comic book original.

They also foolishly compare any comic book movie to TDK and have nothing but pure hatred for other movies such as The Avengers and The Amazing Spider-man (Even though they are not related and aren't even DC related!)

Guy 1: Hey man, did you see The Avengers?

Guy 2: The Avengers? That movie is the worst thing on the planet! Chris Nolan should have directed it and put in Batman!

Guy 1: Geez man, you're such a Nolanite!
