If you'd seen the movie, you'd know it was

All of your "concerns" (manufactured ragebait) completely melt away once you've actually seen the movie

Its total nonsense

Now I know you’re trolling. I’ve seen enough clips. Heard enough of the comments to know that everything you were saying is bullshite. 100%. They’ve changed so much of this movie nearly unrecognized to the original story. Is it possible that you’re too dull and just don’t know what you’re talking about to understand? Yeah that’s possible.

You sound like the type of person who buys a Rolex and then gets upset when somebody tells you that it’s actually a Casio.

None of that is the equivalent of actually seeing the movie.

Any high schooler having just come off reading the Odyssey would recognize nearly every scene in this movie.

You have no idea what you're on about.

Because I don’t have to watch the movie.
For the very reasons, I have already stated.

Any high schooler who had just read the Odyssey would know which parts have been screwed up and cut out so that Nolan‘s twisted agenda could be crammed in, like a square peg into a round hole, just to make this movie. So, you’re halfway right without even knowing it.

I mean they don’t talk about the movie at all, they also lie about having seen it so I don’t know why you have to see it.

Ask his own feminist translator!! She even said it was overdone to what her ideas were on the story!

Nolan out feminized the feminist! But you’re gonna tell me he has no agenda? GTFO!

She says that? I haven't heard her say that at all.

Literally not a single second of this film has a "feminist" tinge or agenda to it. Zero. None

It is not present anywhere even remotely in the film. If anything, its the opposite

The primary themetic element of the film is shame and guilt over not following your own moral compass.

Because they have no defense on the issues brought up. The armor, the Viking ships, the dialogue, the out of place cast, which is so cringe, they just wanna pretend it’s not in the movie that I “haven’t seen“ when it absolutely is.

Looking at one photograph, and anyone can tell that Nolan who has based his entire premise on the film is being grounded, completely screwed this one up.

Where does she say this and what specifically does she say? Because she certainly does not say that in the OP.

Give me some specific quotes from her that back up your statement.

What I don’t understand, his point mainly, of if you’re making it “modern” why take out the gods? Does modernity mean no religion?

Well we watched the movie and none of this was a problem at all to anyone remotely normal

Tell the board you don’t know what you’re talking about without saying you don’t know what you’re talking about.

Thanks for your attention to this matter.


Emily Wilson takes issue with Nolan‘s film. Geeks and Gamers link.

I watched the clip. That article just takes quotes from the clip

Nowhere at all does she what you are saying.

Perhaps you can show me a direct quote from her that makes your claim that he "out feminized the feminist"

Read your article. It doesn't say anything that you are saying.

So, perhaps just post the direct quote from her here.
