I think we're saying the same thing. He subverted your expectations because you expected something elaborate and clever, but instead he gave you....nothing.
Cool. Thanks Rian lol

Millions of homes are powered by nuclear power. Do you think that means they have Uranium fuel rods in their walls?

Yea ok and she's obviously wrong.
Like "oh I was gonna use this fuel that would cut my electricity bill by 90%, but I heard it caused a fire that burned something important so I'm not anymore...." what? Never in a million years.

Ok well that's a pretty cheap "big reveal". I didn't find that very clever or satisfying. I was kindof hoping the movie was building to something bigger.

Yea that was also really dumb.
"Yea I was gonna power my entire country with this super energy efficient fuel, but since it got some bad publicity, so I'm not anymore" What?!
We literally tolerate insane human rights abuses from Saudi Arabia for access to their oil.
And the whole bit about the fuel being super combustible... how is that a downside exactly?
I get it's probably not a good idea to fill a blimp with it, but combustibility is a pretty good aspect for a fuel source to have lol.

Ok but shouldn't the climax of a Whodunnit be the reveal of...who dun it?
I don't think it's unreasonable to expect that in a murder mystery movie.
Also if the big twist is the twin sister thing, that's a pretty lame twist.

I was really loving the movie until the ending.
Rian Johnson has a habit of writing scripts where the big reveal is....nothing.
In this case, the entire movie was building up to a big clever satisfying reveal, and the reveal was...nothing. Basically there was no big mystery, just a guy acting stupid and obvious.
I get that the big twist is supposed to be that Ed Norton's character is actually really dumb, despite being a billionaire, but is that really a good reveal when the character was acting dumb the entire movie?

I am saying that Rian Johnson doesn't seem to know much about how power generation works.
He either didn't do the research or if he did do the research, and didn't care.
A fuel source that "results in an explosion" isn't a bad thing. Ever heard of an internal combustion engine?
