I thought “Our Age of Bronze is collapsing!” was a tad on the nose, but clearly Nolan gets that you really do need to spell it out for some of this audience

[BOGUS. @WhereIsMeechie]

The whole point of that character was that he was just a farmer’s boy that wasn’t supposed to be there and wasn’t a strong warrior lol

the pig scene is a historic moment in cinema and i don't think anyone will ever do something like that again in our lifetime without relying on cgi or ai

[Athena @Minifarmthena]

She keeps rubbing herself against the chair or sofa until she builds up a static charge and then runs over and shocks me.
Why does she understand static electricity??? How does she know to use it for evil???

no need to be upset that scenes from the odyssey have become S tier memes. the odyssey, Greek tales are the most enduring memes. siren’s song. being stuck between a rock and a hard place. Achilles heel. Midas touch. Trojans horse. memes are the DNA of culture. this is natural!

All The Odyssey posters side by side

[Cal @wyattyhalpert]

The Odyssey (like Oppenheimer was) is such a thorough repudiation of the idea of Nolan as a cold technician. Their formal precision and their immense scale might superficially conceal it, but he loves faces - he sees as much (more?) spectacle in them as in gods or monsters.

“places where only one race existed” - the Mediterranean

[arvo färt @arvofart]

I genuinely cannot imagine a person who likes Nolan’s Odyssey but doesn’t like The Northman. You’re making up a guy to be mad at

[vizier @twink_cafo]

this is pissing me off bc nolan’s interpretation of the giants was so enthralling to me. steel clad barbarian giants in the age of bronze feels so alien, it’s so sick

[yoshimi battles video game addiction @nise_yoshimi]

"ten years on this fucking beach" is such a great way to deflate the mythology and majesty of the trojan war in a single line. they really were just stumped by the concept of walls

[Caroline Siede @CarolineSiede]

My Odyssey hot take is that everyone is VASTLY overestimating how easy it would be to recognize someone after 20 years in a world with no photos.

[Kovács Attila @Titanlizard_Art]

Look how much mass can be portrayed by letting the line art have bits of imperfections and by not applying a quadrillion bloom effects on top to cover it all.

[Amelia™ @RealiaAmelia]

enough guys did this that it’s a stock character in greek plays. it’s where we get the word parasite.

[arvo färt @arvofart]

I think an underrated part of what makes The Odyssey work so well through a horror filmmaking lens is that it presents a world where the gods existence is dubious, but their wrath is real, their monsters are real, and hell is real.

love this sound bite LMAO

“Odysseys never felt any guilt or trauma about the Trojan War”

Odysseus at every mention of Troy in the poem

[Hav @thebeldamm]

Unfortunately I can’t stop thinking about how fucking putrid the inside of the Trojan Horse must’ve smelt

[Patrick Fisackerly @fisackerly]

I have been Odyssey-literate the entire lifespan of this vanity card, and not once have I given a moment’s thought that it’s a reference. I’m a fool.
