WHAT WAS NOLAN THINKING?!
>>217038798New PS3 game looks awesome
I don't get what's wrong with it but I'm not a history buff
YOOO YA BOI NOLEY 100% COOKED FR THAT SHIT LOOK LIKE STRAYT ASS BRUH
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKTr5i2iiWEnolan slop trailer reminded me of this god tier Troy teaseri remember watching this in the theater. we were spoiled with historical epics in the early 2000s and all we're getting nowadays is Nolanslop, Napoleon and Gladiator 2.
>>217038817Good thing it's not history movie. It's just based on science fantasy book that was written long time ago
>>217038858Bane from The Dark Knight should look like this
>>217038798Those lion head buckles attaching his cape to his breastplate are not authentic to the time period at all.
>>217038798looks like a league of legends champ lol
>>217038798Greek Batman
>>217038798it was obvious they would ruin the Odyssey
>>217039156Well the cast has been out for a year and it reads like a literal 4chan shitpost. It's only missing idris elba
>>217038858>THE GREEK FIRE RISES BROTHER
In before the "." thread
>>217039087ya he does
>>217038798>gee I wonder if we can make use of any of these spare Batman props
>>217038858> lotta loyalty for a conscripted hoplite...
AI will fix it
>>217038798Benny Safdie is a big guy
>>217039445Lol
>>217040169Thing is they could just use a less extreme/ceremonial version of the armor on the right and it would be perfect. Those full armor panoply sets would have only been used for the most elite palace guards, not standard issue for Greek foot soldiers
>>217040169Left is much more colorful than the real nolanslop.
>>217038858kek
>>217038798>not one person on set had the balls to tell him>or they did and he idiotically ignored it
>>217038798The design itself isn't so bad, it's historical fantasy so accuracy really isn't the issue, it's that the material looks phony. Also Safdie as Agamemnon is horrible casting. Nolan really needs to get out of his comfort zone and stop recasting the same people just because he's cast them before.
>>217038858>They expect none of us in the horse, my brother.
>>217040471Safdie is probably the most Greek looking of the main cast. Matt Damon is a charisma void though
>>217038798Toilet brush tier helmet
>>217040471>it's historical fantasy so accuracy really isn't the issueit's not about historical accuracy, it's a completely retarded design that's a handicap to whoever's wearing it "in battle", it doesn't just cut off his peripheral vision it cuts off like half his non-peripheral vision toowhy would it be 6 inches away from his faceit could be good but the execution of it is far enough off it instinctively raises hackles
>>217039445they took this from us
>>217040471>historical fantasy so accuracy really isn't the issueit looks like it was made in an american chopper shop, is it sci fi or historical fantasy?
>>217038798most people can't conceive what goes on in the mind of a genius like Nolan
>>217038858kino incoming bros
>>217038798>thinkingHe wasn't
>>217038858Do you feel in charge of the Greek army?
>I wanna make my greek warriors look cool, man their historical armor is stupid looking, thankfully I'm adapting a fantasy poem with gods and monsters so surely only absolute gay niggers with no friends and no pussy would care about the historicity of that!
>>217038798he's a big guy
>>217038858>They expect one of us on the altar, daughter
nolan must like world of warcraft lookin armor designs lol
>>217040857>when i face North, my left ear points West>but when i face South, my left ear points East>can somoene figure this shit out and let me know because i sure can't.
>>217038798>why doesn't it look like it did irl?Why should it? Answer that, midwit.
>>217040950>thankfully I'm adapting a fantasy poem with gods and monstershomer has a bit more weight than dc comics
>>217040857remember when people thought this guy was some generational genius and then he kept doing interviews and everyone slowly began to realize he's a fucking moron who just got lucky with his films?
>>217038798I like the idea but he went over the top with it
>>217040169right unironically looks cooler. I hate normalfags so much
>>217040950>>I wanna make my greek warriors look cool, man their historical armor is stupid looking, unfortunately my fantasy armor looks just as stupid in a completely different way; better just take the Rian Johnson route and call anyone complaining an incel
>>217040615>it's not about historical accuracy, it's a completely retarded designThis.I couldn't give 2 shits about historical accuracy and it's a stupid strawman defense. The issue is that it looks fucking stupid, straight out of a blocky videogame like fortnite
>>217040857>my 2 year old saw donald trump on television and announced "daddy this man is literally the next hitler"
>>217038798>countless threads seething on the helmet/armor>almost none about nguba being casted as helen of troyI'm actually impressed, /tv/...
>>217040857this is actually a clever riddle that goes over most of your heads
>>217041985>>217040857If you weren't looking at your mirror image but you were looking at yourself looking back at you, what would you see and now would it be different from the mirror image? the seemingly obvious answer is that everything would be flipped horizontally. but why is that the obvious answer? why wouldn't you be flipped upside down? it's because people naturally rotated about the up and down axis. so the psychological mismatch is happening because of the intrinsic way in which we rotate. there is another people good axis of rotation that leads to a 180 degree turn, and it would result in the vertical being flipped and the horizontal not, but our brains disregard it.
>>217038798
>>217041985it's not really that deep, your brain auto-corrects the fact that you see everything inverted vertically like that already, it just doesn't do that for the left/right reversal so ignores itit's not on but near the tier of the people fascinated the mirror can "see behind the paper"
>>217041874>>almost none about nguba being casted as helen of troyLupita is Helen? Sheeet....
>>217042218why can't they make it look like metal anymore
>>217042237the behind the paper thing requires people to understand that light travels outward in all directions and that quantum collapses occur when it is detected as a particle. not exactly common knowledge
>>217042106>>217042237Yeah you got that off Reddit It's because your eyes are roughly horizontal and that's why you do the thing you are talking aboutFucking Gen z. Your eyes are fucking horizontal that's why it's doing that. Don't just give the fucking result of it you read off ai or reddit You literally had no fucking clue what you are saying until told you about your eyes being horizontal. Stupid fucks you can understand the effect without knowing that.
>>217042436you're a midwit who is just saying what sounds right
>>217038817it's not a history movieand it still looks dumb
>>217042462Know the fucking basic the practical shit before you give some psuedo shit out Fucking Gen z. " I read it off reddit which read it off ai" All your knowledge is shitty summaries.
>>217040857I’m never paying to watch any of his shitty films ever again. It’s over.
>>217042436>you got that off Reddit?think I've been to reddit all of 4 times troubleshooting vidya>Don't just give the fucking result of it you read off ai or reddit so which was it, can you make up your mind?
if more people stare at a light source does the light source fade out because of all the quantum collapse?
>>217038858>so… you came back to die with troy
>>217038798Reminder the very next thing that happens to this supposed "gigachad" king after this scene would be returning home and getting murdered by his wife in the bath.
>>217042394yes, but a dog or cat doesn't need to understand how a mirror works to pass a MSR
>>217042651Women are the bane of all great men.
>>217038798LOOK AT THIS DUDEEEEEEELOOK AT THE TOP OF HIS HEAD
>>217038892Retard
>>217042669Say that again.
>>217041874God damn what a terrible cast. The only thing it's missing is Steroid Floyd and you would have yourself a semites wet dream
>>217042394>not exactly common knowledgeIt is in developed countries with a basic education system.
>>217038858i can hear it
>>217039445>>217040169The armor doesn’t matter to the storytelling and using that would only serve to distract and take the viewer out of the movie and is a crutch of the unimaginative who must rely on a gimmick of being extremely historically realistic which ultimately has no bearing on a good movie. When that is all you have without good storytelling will result to nil.
>>217043669>The armor doesn’t matter to the storytelling>using that would only serve to distract and take the viewer out of the movie this, exactly, it's just "off" and immediately distractingit doesn't have to be anal retentively historically accurate but one thing it can't be is "bad"
if he was wearing a mop bucket it would take you out of the movie too, so while the armor doesn't matter to the storytelling, the overall suspension of disbelief is sure does
