Who should’ve directed it?
>>221801478Peter Jackson
>>221801478Just watch the 1968 mini-series, it's on YouTube
Idris Elba
Deni Vini
>>221801478Peter Weir. He would have built a replica Argo.
Cy Endfield, Walter Scott, John McTiernan all would have made a good Odyssey film. Hollywood today realistically would likely only let us pick between Nolan, Scott, and Villeneuve, who all would have given us equally retarded garbage at this point
Malick
>>221801478Use a time-machine, bring Homer from the past and make him direct the movie.Who else better to make the movie than the guy who wrote its story?
Reanimate David Lean and have him do it. Even his half-dead, rotting body would probably do a better job than Nolan
>>221801867It would take him longer to complete the film than it took Odysseus to complete his journey home
>>221801478Given the reception it's getting? Seems like Christopher Nolan should have.

>>221801478Robert Eggers presents: A Muppet Odyssey
>>221801478Michael Bay, unironically
>>221801478The Bone Tomahawk guy
>>221801478Zack Snyder, unironically.
Proxy Paige. Only question is who could Natalie Mars (one of her favorite actors to work with) play ?
>>221802545Charybdis
>>221801478James Cameron
>>221801878he'd probably have made all the characters be played by men
>>221801478Mel Gibson
>>221802678that wouldve been kino of the highest levels
>>221801478Either Peter Jackson (if he can give us a LOTR performance) or Mel Gibson.Noone currently in the industry could do it justice.My dream would be some 50s epic that would be impossible to make nowadays. Watch pic related, it's awesome
>>221801478christina hendricks
>>221801478James Gunn
Martin Scorsese
Robert Eggers
>>221802652thisalso unity of place, time and action like the gods intended, so no fractured dialogues montages
>>221801878Dude, homer didn't even exist, he is a fictional character intended to represent all the story tellers that passed down the oral narrations
>>221803943All of them black of course.
>>221801478Zvyagintsev
>>221801478Mel Gibson, Denis Villeneuve or even Luc Besson would have made a better adaptation.
>>221803997>Luc BessonNot after Dracula
>>221801478Hideo Kojima
>>221803997>Denis Villeneuve or even Luc BessonNope, lol
>>221803808KINOINO
>>221801478uwe boll
>>221801478Lizzo
>>221804704>uwe bollWould pay to see Citizen Odysseus
>>221804704I came here to post this and it’s a shame i had to scroll so far to find it
>>221801704This in the 2000s, or Ridley Scott in the 80s.
>>221801478Me
Hear me out here. And think of how the Nobody Cyclops scene would be
>>221803997>Villeneuvenope, he's 90% as sloptastic as Nolan.
Gore Verbinski.
>>221803808Why did Marty do it?
>>221801478werner herzog
Denis.
Robert Eggers is the only autist who could do it.>>221806314He's like Nolan but even dumber.
>>221806322>He's like Nolan but even dumber.
>>221802075This. The movie 300 grossed $450 million with a budget of $60 million.For the Odyssey, instead of paying a bunch of random A-list actors, they should've given $20 million to Frank Miller to make an Odyssey graphic novel. Then paid Zach Snyder $20 million to adapt it. Exactly like 300. Keep Matt Damon as Odysseus. Keep Anne Hathaway as Penelope. Drop every other A-list person. Cast actors who have good resumes but aren't famous to American teenagers. Exactly like 300.They will never do this. They give us Tom Holland squinting like he is battle hardened. They give us Elliot Page over-acting wounded. They give us Robert Pattinson looking confused again. They give us Travis Scott who is not an actor. They give us Lupita Nyongo because Lupita Nyongo. I'm not seeing this bullshit until it's streaming. And guess what? They know. That's why it's a pile of shit. They know nobody goes to theaters anymore. They pay people to rate the pile of shit "wow 9.5/10!!" because they know it's shit but it was expensive.
>>221801983>>221803840>>221806322I like Eggers and his respect attention to historical authenticity but I don't quite trust him enough to not desaturate the hell out of the movie like he always does. An adaptation of the Odyssey should have a strong mythic quality as it's an age of heroes so it should be vibrant and colorful as the poems describe
>>221806233Hey, eh. What else could he do, that guy.
>>221801478Eggers unironically.
Robert Eggers is the only correct answer
>>221803808I would love a movie set in the Classical era done with Italian-American accents.A diplomat saying "The strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must." sounds like a mob shakedown to me
Guillermo del Toro
George Lucas, with someone good providing the script . Lucas was unironically the only guy in hollywood to get mythology, but he couldn't write.
Genndy Tartakovsky
>>221802545To think she would turn from this into a plaphog that could fit 3 fists up her ass.
Odyssey should be an art movie
>>221801478>Who should’ve directed it?Emerald Fennell.
Eggers
>>221801478Me, obviously .It would've been an avant-garde tour de force highly pornographic kino.It's starts with me , buttnaked , taking like 7 viagras with vodka, while a naked Anya Taylor Joy and Amy Addams are patiently waiting for me in bed. The camera does a close-up of my penis , there is a trireme tattoo, and the word Odyssey tattooed on Anya's ass, O being the butthole..
