Odyssey comes out and suddenly everyone's an expert in ancient armor, sword fighting, archery, Bronze Age history, and mythology
It's kinda weird how bow and arrow is one of the most primitive and earliest weapons when its design is comparatively complex in comparison to all the pointy stick ones

>>221837680Jack black is a funny dude
>>221837825is the thing about odysseus referencing "the bronze age" actually in the film or just a meme? because i was just thinking that it's like a joke from a mel brooks movie.
>>221837866I have not seen such superb agility since the finale of Ahsoka.
omg guys.... I REALLY effing hate this movie and it's NOT because I'm a chud, it's just..... it's just bad!! these low quality out of context clips.... they're just heckin yikes!
>Using potato quality clips from a camrip to prove that a movie you haven't seen is badWhat a life
>>221838009At least this doesn't have 50 cuts in the space of 10 seconds
>>221837866>>221837700>>221837680Unless those paid off 10 star reviews are ashamed properly, this will keep happening. Even Megalopolis was not this bad.
>>221838016(You) tried.
>>221837839i'm an expert in looking at a movie and determining if it makes me laugh when it shouldn't. this makes me laugh when it shouldn't.
>>221838016The action is shit, deal with it, and there is no excuse why a 100 million dollar Nolan film would have shitty action scenes.
>>221837680Meanwhile this was Assantes old man disguise
>>221837931This comes of as comedic.Why they also had to do the branches going from ground to up, i think this was perfect moment to do some Evil Dead shenanigans and have the roots raise and trip the men and then they see the giants approach.Just appalling choice.t. screenwriter
>>221837680>>221837700>>221837866Fucking based! I am taken back to when I first saw Blade or the first time I saw the The Raid, bravo Nolan! Bravo!

>>221837966jesus christ dude
>>221837966explain for people not pros on editing and post production fx
>>221837700>muh this is a camrip in the actual movie he displays a proper archery stanceIncoming
>>221837985Odysseus is a trickster. By looking like he doesn’t know how to shoot a bow he actually disarms his opponents and makes them overconfident
>>221838009Why are they moving so slow? Female actors?
>>221838077Sorry man.It just didn't bother me when I saw the movie
>>221837700Can anyone actually confirm that this wouldn't work.I mean, do you really have to draw the bow string that far back to shoot a bow halfway across the room and kill someone
>>221837700they really shit on the tale, it's so patheticin the original story, Odysseus's bow was extremely difficult to pull back, none of the suitors could do it but him and here he is fucking aiming improperly and not even drawing the fucking thing all the way
>>221838155P
>>221837700THE WAY THE BOW IS USED IN THIS MOVIE BOTHERS ME A LOT!!!WHY DOES IT FEEL CGI OR AI IN? THERE IS NOT STRING TENSION, NOR PROPER ARM MOVEMENT. THE FUCK IS THAT SHIIIIT???
Nolan was always a hack that gets deepthroated by critics and general audiences for whatever reason. He somehow convinced people to view his capeshit bamham films as cinematic masterpieces because his films lull the audience into not really paying attention. They're all amusement park dark rides where you're expected to strap in and watch the pretty colors on the screen. Exit by the gift shop, make sure to leave a positive review on the way out :)
>>221838199That's because you're literally an idiot who doesn't get thatbthe it's difficult to pull back part is just about stringing the bow
>>221837943Sure he will, anon
>>221838198You can find videos on Youtube of people pulling and shooting bows like that and it seems perfectly effective for short distances
>>221837866They told me Pattinson can act. What the fuck is this shit?
>>221837985That is how you fire an arrow. Archery is incorrect in almost every movie. You push the bow forward like this
>>221837700Um, was that supposed to be the famous bow that was impossible for most mortal men to string?
>I haven't see this movie, but let me tell you who have seen it why your opinion on it is wrong
>>221837866Now, this is pod racing!
>>221838198Protip: if the bowstring isn't taught then there won't be any momentum behind the arrow and it'll just flop
>>221837700There is no way. I don't know much about archery but is this actually compy on shortbows? But it's the Odysseus's bow right. The one that is incredibly difficult to string?
>>221838199If its hard to pull back then wouldnt it make sense that pulling it back shot halfway would generate enough power to kill someone a few metres away?
>>221838227You are fucking braindead lol. It takes MORE energy to pull it back than it does to string it.
>>221838169They were inspired by the prequel fight choreography and tried to make this as accurate as those shitty movies. They unfortunately succeeded at doing that
>>221838169because the lady who played the star princess in men in black 2 is not a physical actor/old as fuck by nowat least they had the temerity to shoot wide instead of hiding the action with dogshit close up angles and constant cutsand on that note, why the FUCK did nolan shoot in 70mm if every fucking cut being leaked has nolan essentially shooting so fucking close everyone is shot above the waste, and every surprise is a surprise LITERALLY ONLY because of how close up everything is?
>>221838257He just saw Odysseus' unstoppable whirlwind attack. You wouldn't recoil in fear like him?
>>221838168>help me, athena. i must don my most difficult disguise: that of a miscast hollywood actor pretending to be me. the suitors will never see it coming.
>>221837700The way he draws that bow that arrow could not possibly penetrate anything
>>221837700>quickdraw enchantment
>>221838277He isn't even aiming, he is equivalently hip firing and there looks like there's fucking slack in the draw.>>221838227You are making typos because you are seething in defense, extreme homosexual behavior.
>>221837866please tell me that weapon is charged with some sort of magic
>>221838265>t. esl and most likely brown
>>2218376808.5/10. It's really not that bad, designed to be a quick-shoot arrow strike, not requireing an full draw-and-aim. You autists get hung up on the silliest things. It's perfectly in tone with the context of the scene.
>>221838257He was always a terrible actor and those people were always retarded for praising his acting
>>221838358Hollywood magic
>>221838367I'm an archery expert. You're supposed to pull the string so far back that the bow bends and both ends of the bow bend back and touch each other. That way the arrow has the most force.
>>221838234Yeah, I I don't think it needsto be drawn that far to kill these guys at what appears to be maybe 10 meters.
>>221838277You clearly don't know how a fucking bow and arrow works.It's easy to tell in every shot that A. it's as loose as your mother and B. He's not even attempting to pull the drawstring backIt may be common in those super cool archery videos to 'hipfire' but those are with compound bows, not a single string. Single strings take time and a shitton of effort to pull back and aim.
>>221837680>>221837700LMAO
But these scenes look completely different in IMAX.
>>221837700>>221837866He should just have made it a 3 hour film of people talking in ruined palaces.
>>221837866The webms just get worse and worse, after the already shit trailer, so we KNEW the film would be bad from that, and it camrip has proven it's bad lol.Can't wait for the memes. Feels funny that there are retards who exist who will1. pay for this, see it, and2. review it better than a 2/10, some will give it an 8!!!What a stupid species we are. Pitiful in fact.
>>221838257For me, it's the flash at the end; it really sells the chaos and terror being witnessed.
>>221838257Pattinson has always been shit
>>221838409yeah, you do. it's not a gun. bows are weak when half drawn
Amazing how Jessica Biel in blade trinity is still the high point of an actor using a bow and the only modern one to actually make it believable
>>221838169Dave Filoni decided to cast a bunch of barely mobile corner store aunties in his star wars fanfic.
>>221838168Ah shit good point. Bravo Nolan.
>>221838198a light bow can shoot a light shotbut odysseus's bow was infamously impossible to string by anyone in the room, implying it was both a massive bow and had an exceptional draw weightnot only that a large bow shoots a large shot, with the recoil to match.If the point of a bow that cant be strung is that no one is strong enough or wide armed enough to get that damn bow strung (see, the return), its goofy as shit that nobody in the room full of hunks and chads could muster the strength to string that toy fuckin bowLastly, your draw influences the power of the shot, and a half assed [whatever the fuck draw] hes doing isnt putting any more power than is needed to send the arrow forward, but not through peopleI genuinely wouldnt be surprised if thats because stupid fucking nolan actually wanted damon to shoot actual projectiles at people, but since its actual projectiles damon was instructed to hold his bow funny and shoot the equivalent of a BB gun at people
>>221838348Not "aiming" the bow isn't the problem. Most trad archers shoot instinctively, that is you just look at your target and shoot. Like throwing a baseball, you dont aim it really. The problem here is that he's half drawing, and pulling it with his elbows. That's simply not going to produce a powerful shot, and his bow is supposed to be unbelievably powerful. In the end it isnt even about realism, the root of the corny-ness is that it doesnt convey power at all. It looks like he is shooting a toy bow. Compare this to almost any other archery scene in the last 30+ years of modern film history
>>221838257He's passing out from the sheer kino on display
>>221837866
>>221838257Why can't Hollywood make a spinning attack look cool and weighted anymore? Thought the Supergirl spinning a flail in her trailer looked lame as hell too. Remember the Witch King? Now there was a spin attack! https://youtu.be/dQ_-rmuPZC4?si=tC_PJQ9Q9XPMIPpR&t=66
>>221838430that's Nostos: The Return (1989), but without the talking
>>221838454Even fully drawn an arrow very likely isn't going to kill someone immediately upon impact
>>221838358It was canonically a difficult bow to wield, the fact that it's being hip-fired with a slack bowstring directly contradicts this
>>221837999its cut like that fuckin matrix/neo throatpoke memealso nice trips
>>221837680>TROJAN JOCKY!!!!!!
>>221837700>>221837866>its goofy and cheesyOkay, I might actually watch it now. I was afraid we'd get a grimdark srs bzns Oddysey, which is the opposite of the source material.
>>221837680>By Zeus, it's Jason Bourne!
>>221838367Odysseus's bow. The legendary and impossible to string on by every suitor on Ithaca is a quick-shoot shortbow? Go back to your own cope thread where "nothing has bothered you."
>>221837700>>221837866holy shit
>>221838436There are already some good ones>You're a Pig guy>-Circe
>>221837680I think Matt Damon is done with acting
>>221838257They told him to stand and look terrified.
>>221837700This can't be real BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>221837866Holland's derp face really sells the gravity of the scene
>>221838009This looks like a duel scene choreographed by someone who really loved the prequel duels but has no talent/training.
>>221838061>there is no excuse why a 100 million dollar Nolan film would have shitty action scenes>Nolanthat's why of course. Though he could hire someone to choreograph action well, he never has.
>>221837700his fucking face when he fires, like he's sending the bow out with a grimace....lmao
>>221838528but a heavy enough arrow sticking into you and your body stopping it, is going to knock your ass down
>>221837700>>221837866I'll never believe Jeremy Jahns ever again. What a disingenuous faggot he's become lately.
>>221837866>shills are actually trying to say this movie is goodroflmao
>>221837898>getting pushed back a meter and pinned to a wall by an arrowWhatit either goes through you and sticks behind or you absorb the energy and the arrow doesn't have any more when it comes out the other side, wtf
>>221838682Oh of course, you're very likely going to be at least immediately rendered immobile temporarily but it was more a comment on how arrows =/= bullets, but even then Hollywood likes to present bullets as immediate death touches except when the plot demands otherwise.
>>221837898I'll never forgive the jews for what they did to her.
>>221837898Why is Achilles still alive?

>>221837680>>221837826CHICKEN JOCKEY
>>221838198This is a movieThis is a notoriously big movieThis is a notoriously big movie with a director that explicitly DID NOT want to make realistic armors, realistic cast, realistic nothingWhy would you be so fucking dense as to point out "it's realistic so it works!"Everyone expected that scene, that scene to be non-realistic, just that sceneEveryone expected him to grab a fuckhuge bow, do a massive stance, pull the bow with a huge rope sound, release the bow with a fucking gong sound, and shoot a massive wooden pillar and impale 3 guys with it. That's what everyone expected of that scene, and realism on the rest of the movie. It's so easy.But you the cucky sheep get a realistic small bow pew pew in that scene, and non-realism on everything elseThis is why you are a faggy blind sheep, Nolan did the complete opposite and you gobble it up
>>221838769More like Mennon
>>221837700>>221837866What fucking level of gaslighting are we reaching where critics consider this to be good? Every clip from this movie just looks goofy as hell and worse than something from low budget 90's syndicated schlock like Hercules and Xena
>>221838724for the sake of brevity i dont mind a mortal blow = instant kill in a filmI do however mind matt damon holding a bow like his left elbow is broken
You guys are just bunch of haters. Based Nolan Generated AI movie and pocketed 250mil to himself. True visionary
>>221837931>they're big now!>they're big now?>they're big now
>>221838685I usually trust that guys opinions so I'll at least give this film a watch at some point but so far every leaked clip just looks comically bad
This movie looks like shit wtf? The other threads are all calling it an 8/10.
>>221838257It is actually fascinating how all three actors (Damon, Pattinson and Holland) are demonstrating dogshit acting in the same 15 second long scene,
>>221838842>They're Pigs now?>They're Pigs now!
>>221838457ralph fiennes was pretty great in the returnand while the return is not an exciting movie, at least ralph>bothered to get in shape>doesnt look jarringly terrible in action>isnt directed to do fucking stupid shitMy problem with nolan will always be that some >pretentious side inexplicably demands practical effects to the detriment of what is possibleall while>some retarded side allows stupid shit to happenand these two flawed forces clashing always makes a nolan movie feel and look mid
>>221837700>96% audience scoreI've never been more convinced that the vast majority of humanity consists of mindless goy-cattle
>>221838786Now I gotta go to /biz/ and check if there's a NIGGER FRIDAY thread. Thanks.
>>221838819Nolan is a spectacle, no reviewer should make a review on first watch.When I first watch Dark Night Rises I felt like it was a perfect movie 10/10 best of the universe.On a second watch... It dropped to 6/10 I was seeing all the stupid shit I missed I watched it back to back, had no exterior influence nor read any spoilers on itThat's Nolan for you, it's a spectacle that make you not see the small details on first watch
>>221838793>get a realistic small bow pew pewNot even. As another anon said, he's basically hip firing the thing.
>>221838919that percentage is from "snopes verified" good boy accounts
>>221837866*benny hill theme*
>>221838009Looks decent, Nolon on the other hand didn't even try
>>221838819unfortunately we live in a time of managing expectations. nothing is allowed to be too good lest the consoomers expect too much
>>221837866>Funny spinning>Immediate cut to terrible Pattinson >Cut to Holand with his Peter Parker "WOAH MR STARK" expressionI really hope this movie will completely tank Nolan's reputation. This dude can't direct action for shit.
>>221838793There was nothing realistic about the way he was firing the bow, especially a bow that a group of strong male suitors couldn't even string.here's your (you), faggot
>>221838825>I do however mind matt damon holding a bow like his left elbow is brokenYes I think that's the big issue, if it was some hulking big bow or even some small composite bow that looks like it could do the damage and he was wielding it in a way that visually communicates martial competence and cooooolness then arrows can immediately kill for the sake of brevity, but this just looks very very gay
>>221838900it's not abnormal for Nolan at all. he famously doesn't bother doing more than a couple of takes and has screwed over talented actors before.

...somehow Odysseus returned
>>221837680>Nolan’s use of scale (the overmarketed IMAX viewing platform) perverts classical cinema as well as the literary classics. Nolan’s insensate followers — the Nolanoids — don’t appreciate great composition; their sense of aesthetics has been dulled. In their fascination with new technology, they forget what was achieved by David Lean’s enlarged aspect ratio in The Bridge on the River Kwai, Lawrence of Arabia, and Doctor Zhivago — the singular perfectionist visual craft as in Lean’s earlier small-scale movies.The King of /tv/ was right
>>221837680Jack Black lookin sharp
>>221838998It's on it's way to make a billion so I think Nolan's reputation is fine. I'm just hoping in a year people will look back and see how goofy parts of it are like with the Dark Knight Rises.
>SaVE uS Mel Gibson
>>221837866it looks like they were rehearsing and then Nolan used it as an actual take without them knowing

He just doesn't care, as long as it's "good" enough to convince peasants and the right movie critics, then it doesn't need to be any better. He's not a real artist, he's a businessman with a camera and access to actors and other filmmakers.

>>221837846the bow is actually not as old as other methods of launching projectiles, and the very first bows were probably not great. its a technology that has been improved and iterated on for thousands of years.
>>221839618There is no damage to control. The movie is a massive success everywhere outside your incel bubble.
>>221839629Or you're just defending a shitty movie because you love BIPOC Helen, you tranny faggot
>>221839629>Their entire criticism is purely political.lol, it just looks shit
>>221838003it's in the film, near the end, when Odysseus comes home and talks to Penelope
>>221839629>Culture ware>ESL typingwhich third world shit hole are you from?
>>221839645Show me a single webm that makes it look good
>>221837700Why would you fight over tied together axes?
>>221838009if theyd sped it up by about 15% it would probably look ok
>>221837680>>221837700the deal with his bow is only he can draw it correctly, right? because its inhumanily heavy on the draw.so i guess if he wanted to merc some guy in the same room, he could do whatever that is. like a 1/3 pull without even raising the bow to eye level. it looks bad but i guess its not unthinkable.
>>221838900> "Woah daddy chill..."
>>221837898Some woman in twitter said this scene made her cry YHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>221839700I mean, you can do that on the webm, well to 1.25, and you know what it does look a bit better
This is the song played during the credits by the way https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qqK1FrO3BdM
>>221839710>the deal with his bow is only he can draw it correctly, right? because its inhumanily heavy on the draw.yes and only he can bend it far enough to even string it.>so i guess if he wanted to merc some guy in the same room, he could do whatever that is. like a 1/3 pull without even raising the bow to eye level. it looks bad but i guess its not unthinkable.holy shit it actually makes sense, bravo Nolan. although that bow does not really look very impressive.
>>221839322Noland has given us the potential for so many new, great memes. If this were ca. 2010, we'd already have a few classics now. Get to work anons, make old 4chang proud.
>>221837680Literally every scene I've seen till now presents either a lackluster vibe or utter cringe.
>>221839760yeah it looks like a fucking tiny bowhis bow should be fucking huge, like as tall as he is.
>>221837815>>221837866>>221837931The Bronze-Age equivalent of Rambo shooting from the hip
>>221837680DSPgaming?
>>221838198The amount of force you use straining to pull back the bowstring is about the amount of force that will launch the arrow forward.If you draw the string back in any way thats easy, like only partially at that fucked up angle that leaves the string loose, you may as well just throw the arrow.
>>221837931i swear to fuck Nolan is one of the most careless directors ever.
>>221838227This. Only a moron would not tell that you don't need to pull back the string and aim to fire an arrow in close quarters. Why are Nolan-haters so low IQ?Surely, criticizing the instant classic Oddysey is a sign of bigotry, misogyny, and general stupidity. Fucking incels. If you just had sex and left the house you'd see Nolan is a master artist.
>>221837931Why do those trees suddenly appear behind them, and why can't they just squeeze through?
>>221837898defend this nolantardsi cant believe this shit is real, its like nolan made it as retarded as possible on purpose to make fun of the goycattle defending it
>>221838016I had chud fatigue and was laughing with the high scores until I actually saw clips from the movie.
>>221839854You could probably kick them out of the way, don't forget they have swords.
>>221838257because nolan is a one take autist
>>221837680>TROJAN JOCKEY
I'm actually fucking furious that, just as I predicted, Nolan indulged the fuck into the Argos scene because "oh my hecking precious pupperino too pure for this world oh he just needs to be acknowledged he can't be ignored like in the original it's just too cruel, oh it's just too much."In fact this entire movie just reeks of post-hoc revisionism of the original story's pathos and ethos, informed by pop-culture understandings of Greek Myth. Transforming Oddyseus, a crafty but reserved warrior who boasted about his kills and his raiding, into some fucking crypto-Christian who feels deep shame and guilt over participating in the sacking of Troy. It's just so fucking gutless, there's no point to it, there's no heart.
>>221839629>Their entire criticism is purely political.I know this post is likely bait, but just for the hell of it, the posts you're responding to have nothing to do with politics. They mention the filmic elements, and point out that they're shit, with many, many explanations of why throughout these threads. If Nolan had made a film about how wonderful white people are, starring and made by all whites, it would also be terrible because of its terrible cinematic elements. Thanks.
>>221839645>literally everything in every clip looks bad, casting is bad, action is bad, dialogue is bad>but totally impartial critics give the big summer corporate blockbuster good reviews and normie-NPCs mostly like it>therefore, it's le good!Another convincing post. I've just purchased 45 tickets, can't wait to see it.

>>221839912>killing is le bad>unless it is to protect my precious pupper and le wifey chungusBravo Nolan

>>221839912the world has been sissified by 2000 years of christian bullshit.never mind the Christians were butchers and rapists... their philosophy is one of slavery. i have never loved an enemy and wouldnt start now.
BRAVO NOLAN
>>221839824>If you draw the string back in any way thats easy, like only partially at that fucked up angle that leaves the string loose, you may as well just throw the arrow.
>>221837866greatest film of all time btw
>>221839729>this scene made her cryI can't imagine empathizing with characters in Nolan films. They feel like they were written by an alien. Like when McConahuehue is crying in Interstellar, it didn't connect at all, although he's a decent actor when the role is well-written and directed, which obviously Nolan has problems doing. I guess it's just interesting that some "people" can "connect" with Nolanslop-writing.
>>221839890So like, for real, please somebdy explain to me what is this shit?? Why is a row of saplings blocking their way, and why does a second row of saplings appear behind them?
>>221837898Is that a glass bottle in a leather pouch??
Watch this movie still do really well purely out of Nolan fan loyalty. It's just going to prove that Nolan can get away with anything and he won't learn his lesson.
>>221840157The Ridley Scott effect
>>221838268I think the idea they're doing for is that because the bow is so heavy and Odysseus is so strong, even just barely pulling the bow is enough to fire an arrow. Its not how bows work of course, obviously Nolan is a nobowz and it looks retarded for no other reason than that it really undersells the heat of the moment.
>>221837700
>>221840100Nolan decided he wanted a tree there and did not give a fuck if that means a guy will love through it.same shit with TDKR threads have been made about the shit acting in the background of the riots. Nolan does not care. he is not auteur. he just makes mid movies. its amazing everyone memory-holed Tenet in their desperation to believe Nolan is good. that should have ended or at least put his career on ice.
>>221837700Someone needs to get a webm from the 1997 Odyssey where each time he draws his bow you can tell just how much strength it takes, even if he makes it look easy.
>>221840178That's just it; Odysseus has a special bow, sure, but film is a visual medium and it simply looks stupid and underwhelming to see him wield it so half-heartedly
>>221838457Biel is for sex not bows
>>221840183holy shit I bet that arrow traveled for 1000 yards and split someone's head open
>>221838257When a good actor seems to paly utter shit like this, or worse, Tom Holland's laugh at the end of the snippet, then sometimes it can also be due to poor directing or poor selection of takes for editing.
>>221840019Half the population of LA seeing odyssey is like a couple hundred million just from them

is this all just AI trap made to look like camrips to own the chuds when the real thing releases?

>>221840318As hysterical as it is to imagine that somebody went out of their way to make a deliberately bad 3-hour AI rendition of the film to sabotage its release; no, it's real.
>>221839629trolling; reported.
how can they make something this bad?even without all the woke shit everything else is comedically bad

>>221840535actors aren't allowed to have real weapons anymore thanks to alec baldwin
>>221837866Redditors think this movie is the best of all time lol. It's been hilarious seeing all these clips and then reading the glazing on reddit. This is a whole new level of the emperors new clothes. Legit NPC moment if the year.
>>221839468Thats why (despite how polarizing DUNC is) I would consider Villenueve to be an actual artist. If you listen to the guy he has been obsessed with Dune since he was 14 years old, and despite the success he still laments that certain scenes didn't turn out the way he had envisioned them.Nolan lives off that media hype train and laughs his way to the bank when people realize the emperor has no clothes
>>221840557
>>221837700>this is the action movie critics are telling you is a 10/10>this is the action movie websites are saying audiences loveDamn this is fucking terrible looking. I don't believe anything they are saying about this shit.
>>221837700are those axes lined up meant to be the challenge of shooting through?.... and why are two presumably suitors trying to grab them if they're tied together
>>221838409Why is nobody asking the question why the fuck these retards are getting tangled up with their axe-heads while drawing weapons from a rack?It looks like a parody movie or kids movie or some shit
>>221838009This looks like masterpiece compared to the other webms in this thread
>>221840557They're supposed to ACT how fucking hard is it to act like you're using some strength.As usual nolans shit directing is to blame but he used an expensive camera so he's a genius
>>221840602ok that kind of makes sense, although not really.
>>221840617true, the choreography of the fight is shit but at least it looks nice and you can see whats going onnolan could learn a thing or two from this
I guess in the theater it's so fucking loud you don't notice how shitty this looks
>>221838009I never understood why in movies when characters dual wield they use both swords to block instead of blocking with one sword and stabbing with the second one
>>221837866this maneouver looks like 10 yo me trying out a sick diablo 2 move with plastic toy hammer.
>>221840643these actors couldn't care any lessthey know what they're doing is woke garbage propaganda made to tank companies so jews can dismantle the remains and sell it off piece by peicethey're just going through the motions till they get enough money to retire to new zealand before the nukes fly
>>221840643You don't understand, anon. Kubrick utilized lenses from NASA to film parts of Barry Lyndon and he was a genius; Nolan used IMAX cameras to film ALL of The Odyssey because he is EVEN MORE of a genius.
>>221840386Alright alright, looks bad (for me) but Nolan slop looks worsehow about that
>>221838742It's just a new made up character, not Achilles.
>>221840748I heard he even used real wooden ships, amazing.
>>221838939>When I first watch Dark Night Rises I felt like it was a perfect movie 10/10 best of the universe.
>>221838009Were they training their dance moves?
>>221840310Half the population of LA is not going to see any movie.
Reminder that custom IMAX cameras were designed and built specifically to waste several million feet of film on this slop.>After using IMAX 70 mm film extensively since The Dark Knight (2008), The Odyssey became the first feature film shot entirely with IMAX film cameras, primarily using a newly manufactured lighter and quieter version Nolan had specifically developed for the production alongside older versions.>Over 2 million feet (610 kilometres) of IMAX 70 mm film was used to shoot The Odyssey. As a single IMAX camera can only hold roughly three minutes of film, actors had to pause during longer scenes while the camera was reloaded before resuming their performances.
>>221840591lol he said 6-7

>>221840288>Message for you sir!
>>221837700Lmao
>>221840346lol she sometimes held the bowstring with her noseBut yeah, Matt Damon looks retarded in all the scenes he is shooting a bow, not just this one, but also the boar scene, the giants scene etc.
>>221839854It's a mythological story chud. Fucking idiot. They could be driving Porsches for creative effect you fucking incel, and you care about TREES? lmao
>>221839858>its like nolan made it as retarded as possible on purpose to make fun of the goycattle defending itDoesn't he HAVE TO be clever enough that he knows what he's doing is shit-slop, but that enough consumers and critics will give it a 7/10 and that it will make enough money to continue to be a successful director? he can't be unaware of all this, right?
>>221841142sure, hes made good movies in the past, so i think he should be able to tellits not like all of inception, prestige, memento, the dark knight can be flukes
>>221841176Momento was decent, credit where it's duePrestige is good but overratedInception is a rip-off of PaprikaTDK is carried by Ledger's performance
>>221841224>Momentoit's okay I do that too
>>221839912>there's no point to it, there's no heartHas Nolan ever had a real point? Besides "maybe it's interesting to present big cerebral idea on screen with awkward characters and dialogue"? He's certainly never had "heart."
>>221840346Girls with bows became a meme at some point considering how much upper body strength is required to properly use longbows but Katniss definitely wasn't the worst thing ever. Jennifer Lawrence with a bow certainly looks far more competent than whatever the fuck Matt Damon was doing in this movie
>>221840430>how can they make something this bad?>even without all the woke shit everything else is comedically badBecause they are businesses, and this is a product that people WILL consume, and they will profit from it. Mostly the same with Disney Starslop. I'm not sure how many of the people funding or making those films thought they would be literally good, surely some of them did. But the point was to make a profit after buying the SW IP, and they did that. It's literally just business. Unfortunately, these businesses don't prioritize making art, which they prioritize even less so than they use to. Film has been commoditized more or a lot more than it was 20 years ago and before. We are in the Super Corporate Slop Era of film. :(
>>221841329>at some pointAncient Greece with the Amazons.
>>221837680TROJAN JOCKEY
>>221839700It wouldn't fix the problem that they are essentially "giving" free attacks to the opposing fighter. That will always make it look off to the viewer. Like two kids choreographing a play fight WWE style. >No no then okay you hit me then I-
>>221837700Him being out of focus and that centered in the last shot looks like they used an outtake in the final edit.
>>221837700uh matt, you know you're not supposed to look at the lens, right?
>>221841107> Porsches in ancient Greek forestsFuuuuuu Nolan is a genius
>>221837700Oh baby a noscope
>>221840607>why the fuck these retards are getting tangled up with their axe-heads while drawing weapons from a rack?Media illiteracy
>>221838198nigga the POINT was that this bow required so much strength that only the suitor who could shoot an arrow from it would be considered for marriageNOBODY could pull the bowstring except for Odysseus himself when he came back. So yeah, it should require massive strength, and yet he's using it like some toy.
>>221840850Someone needs to reign Nolan in and tell him he can't use the imax camera anymore.
>>221839267So is The Return good? I thought it was basically what Nolan's movie is, a modern concept dressed in classical looks, but seeing the webms and screenshots in these threads is making me reconsider it heavilyIf it's not just good in comparison to the piece of shit we're discussing
>>221841810oh yeah, that's correct, I remember now. Didn't he actually have to shoot the arrow literally THROUGH axe blades, too?
>>221842097Yes, he had to be strong enough to string the bowstrong enough to pull back and release an arrow on such a massive bowAnd aim that arrow through a bunch of axe-handles to hit a target.The suitors couldn't even string the bow. That's why everyone is laughing at this shit, bc Damon is using it like a fischer-price toy.Compare that scene to the one from Ralph Fiennes' 'The Return' - his bow is over half the size of his body.
>>221838198Shut the fuck up retardEveryone knows how fucking bows work ffs
>>221837898>monty python running drums
>>221842097I think it was a trickshot through tiny gaps of the blades (9 of them?)
>>221837866this is the best of all time, this? I hate normalfags
>>221837700>>221837866You can tell Christopher Nolan seriously believes he doesn't deserve to be raped.
>>221841224>MomentoUNO
>>221842097>Didn't he actually have to shoot the arrow literally THROUGH axe blades, too?F in media literacy
>>221842184>Ralph Fiennes' 'The Return'So there's an adaptation of part of the Odyssey starring Fiennes and Juliet Binoche with 80% good reviews that most people haven't heard of, and then there's a corporate slop version from Dolan. wtf
