After a stunning IMAX 70MM showing at the TCL Chinese, Matt Damon gives a beautiful answer to Robert Downey Jr. about just how difficult and exhilarating it was to make THE ODYSSEY, and what the audience’s response has meant to him.
@HDMOVIESOURCE Some of the original negative is underexposed in the shadows occasionally. I don’t believe Nolan’s like to push usually, and it’s something I noticed in all 7 IMAX 70MM’s I saw in various theaters.
I like that it has no information. Part of the charm of film.
@ShowbizSimon I’m not even sure what the point is if you’re press and interview talent. Photo opps are sometimes optional, and if the mood is right it’s fine - but you’re sitting there with them having a conversation… Who cares about the selfie?
@douknowbukhari@bliztkrig@odysseymovie These look like individual snippets which confirms my suspicion that we saw an FYC piece that won’t be on the disc. It was like a fully edited continuous doc for almost an hour.
Behind the scenes of THE ODYSSEY is one of the best making-of docs I’ve seen in years.
Jet engines for wind, 7000 extras, building an entire village to burn it down…
Even with all the secrets revealed, I still don’t fully understand how the hell they pulled this off.
@bliztkrig@odysseymovie I’m sure it will be extras on Apple TV and on the disc but this might have also been an exclusive FYC version. We’ll know when it’s out on the 17th.
@raijin2saucy the best advice I can give you is take really bad pictures. take lots of them. take them all the time. and then one day they won’t be bad anymore and you’ll be really proud of them.
@ash_chowder@redheadfilm some of the best miniature work of all time, and the amount of extras in that film is mind boggling by today's standards. the whole town feels so alive.
