Membicarakan The Odyssey (2026) garapan Christopher Nolan rasanya belum lengkap tanpa membedah bagian ini:

Bagaimana perempuan tetap teropresi dan terobjektifikasi, bahkan ketika mereka duduk di tahta tertinggi. Mari mulai dari Penelope.

A Thread 🧵

[fillainart @fillainart]

Karena banyak sekali lapis yang bisa dibongkar dari film The Odyssey karya Christopher Nolan, aku bakal kupas pelan-pelan.

Hari ini, mari mulai dari satu adegan yang menurutku menarik: dekonstruksi maskulinitas Odysseus sekaligus feminitas Circe.

A thread 🧵

[Melike @Melike1815]

Odyssey’nin hikâyesi muhteşem. Zaten binlerce yıldır ayakta kalan bir destan.

Ama bence bu kadar büyük bir bütçeye rağmen filmin en büyük eksiği, o epik ruhu tam hissettirememesi oldu.

Sorun oyuncuların yeteneği değildi; karakterlerin duygusu bana yeterince geçmedi. Müzikler de bu hissi büyütemedi.

Yunan mitolojisinin ihtişamını, gizemini ve atmosferini çok daha yoğun yaşamayı beklerdim.

İyi bir filmdi ama bence unutulmaz olabilecek bir film olma fırsatını tam değerlendiremedi.

[MyNameIsZahwa @SeriusAmatX]

Pernah nggak penasaran, gimana Christopher Nolan "membunuh" ending klasik The Odyssey?

Puisi Homer adalah cerita epik pulangnya Odysseus setelah 20 tahun perang & petualangan. Tapi Nolan bikin versi filmnya jauh lebih gelap, melankolis, dan modern.

Mau tau perbedaannya? Thread ini wajib dibaca! ⬇️ (Spoiler ALERT yang belum nonton skip aja⚠️⚠️⚠️)

[Official Persebaya @persebayaupdate]

Membangun tim yang kuat tidak hanya soal mendatangkan pemain dan menyusun strategi di lapangan. Persebaya juga terus membangun fondasi di balik layar.

Setelah memperkuat fasilitas gym, Persebaya bersama DBL Indonesia kini melengkapi ekosistem sports science dengan investasi teknologi VALD Performance. Teknologi yang telah digunakan banyak klub elite dunia ini membantu tim pelatih dan tim medis memetakan kondisi fisik pemain secara objektif, mulai dari kekuatan otot, kualitas gerakan, tingkat kelelahan, hingga potensi risiko cedera.

CEO Persebaya Azrul Ananda menegaskan bahwa pembangunan infrastruktur pendukung seperti ini merupakan investasi jangka panjang untuk klub.

"Sejak tahun lalu kami sudah membangun gym dan terus melengkapinya. Kemudian sejak awal tahun Persebaya Academy bersama DBL Indonesia sudah berinvestasi perangkat sports science seperti VALD Performance ini," ujar Azrul.

Persebaya juga terus mengembangkan sistem analisis modern untuk mendukung proses evaluasi dan pengambilan keputusan tim.

"Harapannya semua ini bisa membantu Persebaya meraih target tertinggi musim ini. Paling tidak, akan menjadi fondasi yang lebih baik dan lebih konsisten bagi Persebaya untuk jangka menengah dan panjang," tutup Azrul.

LeBron James, Laker Champion

LeBron James’ Lakers tenure has ended at 8 seasons, his longest stretch with a single team in his career. That meant eight offseasons and eight trade deadlines — sixteen transaction cycles of news, excitement, chaos, and exhaustion. It feels almost impossible to take a breath and step back, but I’ll try.

The one thing that I think has absolutely been forgotten is the state of the Lakers when LeBron James arrived. Lakers ownership had just finished firing the owner’s brother, hiring a first time President of Basketball, a first time GM, had a roster full of young, but unproven talent - and most importantly, they were absolutely rudderless. Let’s be very clear here: the Lakers were on their way to being a decade-long mediocrity. LeBron James didn’t go the Kawhi route and demand a trade for a co-star, he just signed with the team, and for that I will be forever grateful. He WAS the franchise savior, there is no other way to view that.

Now, the Klutch angle. The Lakers may bristle at being “pushed around” to do things like trade for Anthony Davis. But look at what the Lakers were doing that same offseason. They insulted and low-balled Ty Lue. Then, on the day they introduced Frank Vogel — the guy who had originally agreed to be the lead assistant — Magic Johnson went on television and trashed everything about the organization. So yeah, you got pushed around by Klutch to trade for AD, and thank god for that.

LeBron would go on to carry the franchise to a championship, the same year that he carried them through the untimely death of Kobe Bryant, followed by a global pandemic. I was asked on a podcast appearance I did the day LeBron signed about my expectations as far as championships, my answer: Set the over/under at 0.5. LeBron hit the over. Mission accomplished, end of story.

Were there lows that followed? Was the Russell Westbrook trade the worst trade of all time? I think so, and I think it’s stupid to pretend that LeBron didn’t push for that either - of course he did, it was a mistake, and it ended the title window for the team. But LeBron didn’t make the trade himself, I’d be much more amenable to the fact that LeBron James and Klutch were some overbearing pains in the asses if the organization actually had their own basketball principles and philosophies to fall back on. To date, I have seen no evidence of that.

I find myself defending LeBron today and his legacy as a Laker, but at the same time I don’t blame anybody for the relationship ending today. This was a relationship that had its ups and downs and both sides find themselves at a crossroads where saying goodbye is the most logical outcome. The Lakers have to build their franchise around their next centerpiece in Luka Doncic, and while LeBron James gave Luka the space to be himself, LeBron’s stature is too large for this team to not take it’s cues from him - it is time for the franchise to become Luka’s, fully and unmistakably. For LeBron, whether it’s commuting to San Francisco, or ending his story book career where it started, I can appreciate how those options just feel better to him today.

LeBron’s Lakers tenure was messy, political, dramatic, and eventually exhausting. But that cannot be separated from what came before him: a franchise with no direction, no credibility, and no obvious path back to relevance. He chose the Lakers without demanding a co-star first. He made them matter again. He helped deliver Anthony Davis. He won a championship. Everything after that can be debated, but the central fact cannot: LeBron James came to Los Angeles and did the job.

LeBron James, Laker Champion

Usai bertahun - tahun pemain bernomor punggung dua belas menjadi sosok Ace untuk timnas Indonesia, di pertandingan Final melawan Korea kemarin pemain dengan nomor punggung dua belas kembali muncul dari bangku cadangan untuk mengubah jalannya pertandingan.

[Beetleborg Metallix @BeetleborgM3TAL]

@boxoutindonesia Ini alasannya min. Karena Pistons interest juga sama Reaves dan siap buka more cap space

[Marc Stein @TheSteinLine]

The Lakers today secured Austin Reaves' commitment on a new deal after rising interest from Detroit, league sources say.

I'm told the Pistons began maneuvering to make a real run at Reaves that would've required, among other moves, trading Isaiah Stewart for needed flexibility.
