still have yet to understand how the casting of page can still be called woke.


You just know these freaks are praying and hoping that the transgender gets hired on for toy story 6 for her character to die so they can continue to say the same things. That is your goal for every Hollywood movie now.

Nolan literally did what every conservative has called for and stopped pretending that a person of pages genetic makeup could hang in any way with trained men.


He made a character that was a weak, ineffectual, stupid teenager and made him an unwitting catalyst to a dark force opening gates and destroying a culture. Then he cast a 40 year old twink in it and killed her 30 seconds in.

It’s actually hilarious how these performative clickbait grifters don’t see it. They are so stupid it almost hurts

The question is a lie. These people won’t make an honest statement about this movie now that the issues have been exposed. It’s full tilt BS from here on out

No you don’t get to ask after you made the claim but you did just admit to lying again which again is typical.

I have seen the movie you haven’t.



Nolan wrote a role for an easily duped weakling and thought, per you not by accident, I should cast a post operative transgender in that role.



How is that woke and pushing trans ideology?



Please explain.

100s of posts about a movie he hasn’t seen


Have you counted? Maybe dozens, but 100's? Plural?

This is a movie I WANTED to see. Was excited to see, maybe several times. But par for the course in modern Hollywood, they just HAD to frick it up and make it for the (imaginary) modern audience.

I've been ever consistent on ONE thing. Respect for the source material. Be it 2800 yr old Greek mythology, 90 yr old English fantasy or 20 yr old Japanese Manga.

And for some odd reason, that sets some psychos here on this board off like a tranny who gets called by their actual pronoun.

To what? What point? What question?

You don’t ever say anything you just troll in circles. I know the game. It’s extremely pathetic.

Ask a specific question here. Make a specific point. I’ll address it.

You won’t because you’re just trolling.

This is what liberals do since 2020. They make movies everyone wants to see like the old days but now makes the cast and story woke/dei for no reason whatsoever. Just to say I told you so and they can do whatever they want. They will lose money 90% of the time but every 1 out of 10 times they win and they think that they have total control. They ruined Hollywood movies and tv all together.

It respects it. Very well.

Didn’t do any of the things. And “projection” doesn’t make any sense in the context. You people are strange.

And you think Nolan's take on a Feminist activists translation is somehow NOT woke, and actually 'based'? You have no idea what you saw.

Has zero to do with The Odyssey. The 'child' who was duped, played by an actual young male is as big as the older 'female' version. (5' 2") There's no source where Nolan's version took place by any account, yet he NEEDED it to

1. Use E. Page in his movie.
2. Create further dramatic tension between Odysseus to Antinous.

Casting a known female actor as a male in a major, epic project. It's about the wokest thing possible.

See above.

Communist Animal Farm is another. Should have been a solid W for the folks at Angel Studios, but what a disaster.

It does, I’ll grant you don’t understand since your mind is so warped and resistant to reality.

“You the person that has seen it doesn’t know what he saw. Me, the person that hasn’t, does. Here let me explain to you what you saw that I haven’t seen”




I have read Wilson’s translation. I have seen the Odyssey. He doesnt ape her translation at all. Even a little bit. The only thing they have in common is they both tone down the language. That’s it.

If you read Wilson’s forward and watched the movie you would see how dumb your statement is. Nolan takes it in a much different direction than Wilson does.

But, of course, you haven’t seen it so you don’t know how wrong you are.

This. Animal farm was one of my favorite books I ever read in high school and they butchered the movie so bad.

Explain it in depth. 300 words or more.

Maybe in iambic pentameter like Wilson’s translation

Why would I explain it to you? You're a liar incapable of receiving information that might trigger you.
