Celebrating the pioneering cinema of the past.

@Variety Yes the release of the film has only generated more sales for Wilson’s book so I’m surprised she was so eager to attack Nolan. Ultimately filmmaking is an extremely difficult task given there is so many moving parts. It’s harder than just writing a book. https://t.co/LydMLSB1OV

@PopBase No surprise and I think it will continue to make money in the coming weeks. It’s a solid movie that completely overshadows the usual Hollywood commercial slop that gets released.

@ATRightMovies Probably the Romeo & Juliet soundtrack. A great collection of songs from artists like Radiohead and The Cardigans. I listen to it frequently.

@MattWalshBlog Jew lover Walsh pushing out Jew propaganda like always. Walsh cunt is so compromised it’s pathetic.

@ATRightMovies For its time, Robocop was pretty groundbreaking when it came to the effects. So many talented artists worked to bring the story to life. The art of practical production seems to be lost now.

@ATRightMovies Instantly I think of Jeremy Irons who has a very unique sound to his voice. From movies like Damage, Die Hard With A Vengeance and Lion King, his voice has always stood out.

@ArthurWithouter @kitchentowel Don’t forget Men Behaving Badly, Black Books, Spaced, Father Ted, It Crowd and Drop The Dead Donkey.

@ATRightMovies Against All Odds is my favourite of his. I thought it was a great 80s thriller with James Woods as paying the bad guy. Rachel Ward and Bridges had some great on screen chemistry.

@creepydotorg Yeah she has a limited range. Nolan knew this and that’s why he gave her such a small role. For what she did in the Odyssey she’s was ok but it’s still forced diversity when it wasn’t needed.

@ATRightMovies Taps from 1981. I saw this with my Dad many years ago as it’s one of his favourite movies. It still holds up with some great performances from Sean Penn and Tom Cruise.

@GRCinemaTicket Tough choice but I’d say The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I saw the movie when I was younger and it really freaked me out. Tobe Hooper created a very disturbing atmosphere.

[weeklo @weeklohorror]

@ATRightMovies Definitely The Craft. From the clothing to the soundtrack, watching it now will hit you with a lot of nostalgia. Fairuza Balk’s best performance.

@GRCinemaTicket I agree, it’s an under appreciated neo noir that deserves more attention. I liked Nicholas Cage’s more reserved performance. Something that sticks out compared to most of his performances at that time.

@Polymarket For someone like Wilson, a progressive liberal, of course she would hate Nolan’s Odyssey simply because it’s not woke enough. Her whole life is built around hatred for the white man even though Nolan likely has drawn more attention to her book. https://t.co/LydMLSB1OV

[weeklo @weeklohorror]

@Variety Why is Emily Wilson the arbiter for The Odyssey? I think it’s clear this was Nolan’s adaptation and made the changes he thought were necessary. Wilson being the liberal marxist she is, it’s no surprise she’s dunking on Nolan.

[weeklo @weeklohorror]

@ATRightMovies Kalifornia from 1993. This was imo Pitt’s best performance playing the villain. He was completely different to what you would expect from Brad Pitt. https://t.co/boZ7Gyd8Mp

[weeklo @weeklohorror]

@Variety Who made Emily Wilson the arbiter for The Odyssey? It’s Homer’s poem that’s been adapted hundreds of times throughout the years. While the movie is flawed, let Nolan do what he wants. Wilson should keep quiet and reap the rewards. https://t.co/LydMLSB1OV

[weeklo @weeklohorror]

@Polymarket Well this pretty much confirms that The Odyssey will gross over a billion at the box office. I didn’t realise China hadn’t seen it yet. Usually he does a global release but Nolan was smart to release this film over the course of months.

[weeklo @weeklohorror]

@FilmUpdates @Variety The imax stuff is an experience for sure and I can totally understand why people would want to pay extra for the experience. Ultimately Nolan made the Odyssey specifically for the IMAX experience and will make a difference when it comes to the box office.

[weeklo @weeklohorror]

@memes_from_mars Troy was more of a large scale spectacle while Nolan went for a grounded approach. I love both and I think they work well in their respective films. I do wish Nolan had given more time to the war scenes rather than the choppy editing.
