@MelBull@Elvish_Harper I feel that the problem with Nolan’s interpretation is that he tried to modernize, the epic is a old story and people acted differently… trying to view the events of story with this moralist lenses clearly affects the way characters are portrayed (and also ruins it ngl)
The most American shit is just throwing as many random celebrities as possible at an event without rhyme or reason. Just famous people for the sake of having famous people.
Of course Nolan knows the pun translates well into English.
The reason for omitting it is that Nolan's general style is very low on humor, and such a pun sounds too much as a "silly joke". It would break his high-stakes, very serious, overly dramatic (and pretentious) style.
Christopher Nolan revealed that he wanted to include the famous “Nobody” wordplay from Homer’s The Odyssey in the film but ultimately couldn’t make it work.
The joke relies on Odysseus telling Polyphemus that his name is “Nobody,” so when the Cyclops cries, “Nobody is attacking me!”, the others leave, thinking nothing is wrong.
According to Nolan, the pun simply didn’t translate naturally into modern dialogue.
