They will never learn. Woke does not sell. The Odyssey movie.

It will go down as the worst cast movie in cinema history.

Nolan bent the knee after Oppenheimer got so much praise while being almost exclusively white. Because the topic of the movie wasn't 'diverse' enough, despite accurately portraying the cast of characters for which the movie was depicting.
Which will not be the case for The Odyssey.
Shame.

You mean there wasn't a cadre of sassy black women doing nuclear physics in some back office?

Nolan also changed the story line in the play itself.
Like the movie Revenant. "based on a true story". Then a few minutes in I see Hugh Glass suddenly has an indian son who saves him.....which he never had. It added nothing to the story and they might as well have stuck in a rainbow flag when he arrived at the fort.

Thank you. I've been pissed off about that for years now.

They want to rewrite history to their version.

Nolan didn’t bend the knee to Hollywood. He bent the knee to his wife. This has her fingerprints all over it. He gave her too much control on this one.

How could you tell?
Emily Wilson - author of the translation Nolan based his work on...

Ahhhh yes, the feminist lens. Won’t ever go wrong for the modern audience.

He could have done a brown people epic like Gilgamesh. He choose a Greek one though.

Is that a man? It has a very manly face.

ugga,
Ill divert the thread for a moment but I would love to see a movie on an early mountain man like John Colter. The guy goes with Lewis and Clark on the voyage of discovery, makes it back to the Missouri and as they head down they start to see civilization and he says "Im good, pay me Im headin back to that place where we were hearing those booms in the distance (which he discovered to be ole faithful). Tells tales about the land belching and hot baths in the middle of the winter and they thought it was another of his tall tales, like the time he outran, naked a whole party of indian warriors (which was also true).
Course now his story about how the valley was so long he used to yell before he went to bed, and pretty as you please his echo would return 5 hours later and wake him for the day, that was a bit of a stretch.
