Nolan is controlled by the criteria of wokeness to get his award.
Oh yeah is that it? Not just him making the choices he wants, damn forgot you're the real person to go for real movie news
Meanwhile the movie has a 95% RT critic score, a 97% RT audience score, an A score on CinemaScore, and is projected to be the biggest OW of any Nolan film ever

I promise you, Odyssey is above being tainted.

I stand by my statement. There is no other way to understand the race interjection in a Greek story.
It's sad actually. I'm a student of history. This is some woke revisionist history. But why though? So you can enjoy loud booms in a theater? There need to be consequences for misrepresentation of historical accounts.

Stupid casting is REQUIRED for academy awards now. They have quotas for races. You can look it up.

In a Greek mythology/literary epic?
Why?
Why does Matt Damon have lines? He isn't Greek.

No. It isn’t.
The DEI requirements for the Oscars can be achieved by diversity (and that includes women) behind the scenes in multiple categories. You only have to meet two of the four qualifications.

The Odyssey isn’t even a historical account. It’s a damn Greek epic poem. And was an oral story long before it was written.

There's about a 0% chance of this being true.
This isnt history, its a story.
Anyone that knows anything about history knows that the narrator gets to spin the story the way he wants to.

I don't think he's familiar with how bards work.

You could. As you, very obviously, have not.

Not sure why this is funny. He has so much leverage that he can demand 20 percent of first dollar gross. I'm pretty confident if he can do that, he can cast who he likes.

Source? Genuinely asking, I don't remember this change that specifies the cast itself has to be diverse.

That’s because he made it up.
