Saw The Odyssey last night and yeah, Nolan fucking cooked.This is probably the first time in a while I've left a cinema thinking "ok, this is what a blockbuster is supposed to feel like."The scale is incredible. Troy looks enormous, the ships feel completely real, the crowds are huge, and everything has this physical weight to it. You can actually believe these places and events exist. Apparently they built a lot of this stuff for real too, and it shows.And the IMAX photography is insane. There are shots where you're just sitting there wondering how the hell they even filmed them. The sea especially looks unbelievable. I saw it in IMAX and I really don't think this is one where you should wait for streaming.What surprised me most though is how much horror there is. The Cyclops, Hades, Circe, some of the stuff at sea. Nolan makes the mythology feel genuinely strange and dangerous instead of turning it into generic fantasy action. The sound design is incredible too.Matt Damon is really good. I expected the movie to be more about the spectacle, but there's a pretty miserable, exhausted character underneath all of it. He's spent years fighting and then years trying to get home, and you can actually feel what all of that has done to him.Pattinson is having an absolute blast too. Anne Hathaway surprised me the most though. There's a couple scenes with her that are genuinely great.The best thing about it is probably how sincere it is. It treats the story like an actual myth and doesn't try to make it feel more contemporary than it needs to. For all the spectacle, it never feels like Nolan is constantly stopping to remind you how much money was spent on the movie.I get why some people might have issues with the dialogue or the runtime, but neither bothered me nearly as much as I expected.Just a ridiculously ambitious movie that actually manages to pull it off.9.5/10
low quality pasta
>>222505621Stop this, cunt. You are actually doing harm to the poor guy who made this. He is going to get hate from weird people as a result of you spamming this. Please just kys.
>>222505733Why don't you just stop and kill yourself, cunt?
>>222505579>I saw it in IMAX and I really don't think this is one where you should wait for streaming.they said this about Interstellar too
>Saw The Odyssey last night and yeah, Nolan fucking cooked.
>>222505896Yes, this scene (which you pathetically cut in 360p to try and make it look bad) was amazing
>>222505861k so you want to harass some poor autist who just wants to make films about his dogyou are my project now, remember you started this.
>>222506227I am not a stalker, I am a normal person, but you couldn't let it go after being asked in a perfectly polite manner, you're my project now.
>>222506303Tell Mary that its not about her but about you and explain to her what you did. I am a normal person, I am true to myself and I am true to everybody else.
Wow!!!
>>222506387You could have just acted like a normal person too but you chose not to. I never did anything wrong.
>>222506428I am true to everybody else and I am true to to God. and he knows what is in my heart always and that you started it witout provocation. We will see in 5 hours 42 minutes.
>>222506625he is my project now everybody can see for themselvs that he started first
>>222505579>doesn't try to make it feel more contemporaryIf the script were any more contemporary, it would've been filled with ebonics and brain rot speak, frfr.
My friend's woke fat Mexican roommate say this movie and said it was trash. That's how I know everybody praising it is a shill. I have not heard a single person in real life talk positively about this movie.Not a single person.
>>222505579i actually saw the Odyssey like 2 weeks ago and it is the most absolute 4 star mid movie and nothing elsei mean its good, but nowhere near greati got to see Ben Hur months ago around easter and it absolutely is a better film and cinematic experience in every way>The scale is incredible>I've heard people legit say its a modern classicguess thats just where the bar is these daysi mean the Northman was betterTroy is a better movie than the Odyssey, some parts. nolan doesn't know how to film action or pace a story
>>222506760so you're packing you're threatening my life?? you put me in this situation and I will defend myself as it is my rightI am a peaceful man now only one of us will get out of this because of your violenceI didnt want to, you chose this as everyone can see
>>222506756The Odyssey is rubbish, and I also think its box office is artificially inflated.>>222506756>>222506760>>222506817Stop fighting
>"It's not woke honest">Black Helen of Troy>Black Greek sotryteller>FTM 'Greatest warrior ever">Odysseus portrayed as tired/bumbling/washed up>2nd in command a literal jeet>Random Asian in the crew>All women constantly saying men are pigs, its men's fault, basically fuck menBut TOTALLY not woke right?Kalso fuck off.
>>222507164>"It's not woke honest">Black Helen of Troyshe has only two scenes and does nothing important>Black Greek sotrytellerhas only one scene and a voice cameo near the end, less than a minute of screentime. His first scene ends with Penelope telling him to, in less polite terms, shut the fuck up>FTM 'Greatest warrior ever"Sinon is not called the greatest warrior ever. Odysseus calls him brave because he feels guilty getting him killed to sell the ruse of the Trojan horse>Odysseus portrayed as tired/bumbling/washed upOdysseus is never portrayed as anything but competent and intelligent. You’re just lying about this.>2nd in command a literal jeetAnd gets himself killed because he doesn’t listen to Odysseus>Random Asian in the crewHas no lines and gets himself killed by the Sirens in the only scene that gives him any focus>All women constantly saying men are pigs, its men's fault, basically fuck menAlso untrue. Only woman who says anything remotely like this is Circe and she’s portrayed as batshit insane. Her turning Odysseus’ men into pigs is not justified at all since they never attack or insult her.
>>222507164>>222507220Missing the point on these. They are necessary woke changes to push a conservative dogwhistle.>Black Helen and her twinUsed to show the dangers of racemixing. And how black females are spousekillers. Wouldn't work the same if they weren't black.>black bardThere weren't any smoke detector back then. So they had to have a black guy tap annoying in a room while everyone eats. To remind everyone how annoying the smoke detector situation is.>FTM warrior who was decieved and died for the warUsed to enforce how trans people are decieved. Convinced to die in shootings for the cause.>Jeet>AsianH1B hires. Constantly trying to mutiny and take over.>CirceUsed to show that foreign men invade women's homes. Then shame women fordefending themselves.>Trojan horseUsed to show how hospitality and cultural acceptance is bad. They only lost because they accepted foreign offering and let the enemies that destroy them in.>Greek visiting islands, sea people, suitorsShows rude foreigners trying to be violent, take over, steal, and kill.Nice rightwing dogwhistle by Nolan.
>>222506951Based. Teach that bitch a lesson lmao
>>222507282>Used to show the dangers of racemixing. And how black females are spousekillers. Wouldn't work the same if they weren't black.No that's used to show men are bad.>annoying black bardNo, Nolan literally said it's because the oral poetry of Homer was the "original rap.">Used to enforce how trans people are decieved. Convinced to die in shootings for the cause.Okay tranny, that's a retarded stretch of an interpretation and you outed yourself there.>H1B hires. Constantly trying to mutiny and take over.The implication is Odysseus deserves it for being a bad leader.>Then shame women fordefending themselves.This didn't happen. Matt Damon apologized for his men's behavior. It was another "men are bad" moment.>They only lost because they accepted foreign offering and let the enemies that destroy them in.Which Odysseus literally tells Penelope was bad and we da seapipo now n sheeeit.>Shows rude foreigners trying to be violent, take over, steal, and kill.Same as above. The Greeks brought all of this onto themselves because they broke "Zeus's law" with the horse. Nolan implies in an interview that this relates to being nice to shitbag foreign invaders in our current times.>Nice rightwing dogwhistle by Nolan.Nice troon fanfic.
>>222507373Odysseus in this was catholic guilt for killing but still being justified by morality
>>222507220>The woke is only in a handful of scenes, therefore, it doesn’t exist
>>222507164>>222507220>>222507282>>222507373For how many threads is this bot going to continue to have this exact same argument with itself?
>>222505579I'm glad that Nolan's adaptation really emphasized how the eurocentric Greeks did a genocide on the peaceful, helpless citizens of Troy and how, at the end, Odysseus is a PTSD veteran who becomes an activist, abandoning his wealth and power and yelling, "decolonize Troy!" as he sails his Ship of Peace into the sunset, searching for atonement and forgiveness. So powerful and relevant and valid.

>>222507568I've seen it deleted, along with the blatant AI spammer a few times, so I suspect that the dude is ban evading and nothing short of a range ban would catch that. I'm not sure what tech level that one either unemployed or working for rupees guy who makes 100k tweets a month has, but it wouldn't suprise me if normal methods wouldn't work on him.
>>222505579I'll watch the 2160p rip just like everything else. I don't go to movies anymore.
