Shame because it's a really great story, but definitely think Nolan is the wrong director for it. Him using a gender studies PHD as his guide post interpretation of the original Greek is the real tragedy.

Plus the Hollywood jews are still salty about the grecco-romans tearing down their temples and kicking them out of Judea forever. I can see why they replaced all the beautiful and powerful Caucasian Greeks with brown people and trannies.

Odysseus is plagued and tormented because he was a creative, smart, resourceful and overall standup and honest man. Him using the god's 'rules' against them to hand the Greeks victory was a big thing to piss them off, then his crew being retards just gave the gods and excuse to go all out on him.. poor guy. You do feel for his crew during the journey but kinda have to remember, they were kinda stupid lol.

Am I the only one that is both looking forward to one of the few directors left that gets to spend big money on non-franchise properties, and also not optimistic the results will be anything I like?

Because Oppenheimer did nothing for me, Tenet was both too convoluted and not explained enough, I never even finished Dunkirk, and I don't think a single change made from the original script of Interstellar that was floating around years ago on the internet improved it. Hell, whether Ledger's death was the cause or Nolan just wanting to get out of comic movies, The Dark Knight Rises was a significant downgrade from The Dark Knight. It's been well over a decade since there was an era of Nolan movies (Prestige / TDK / Inception) that I can unambiguously say I liked.

If you pay to watch this you might as well get the free sex change that comes with it.

I actually liked Tenet well enough but fucking hated Oppenheimer. So meandering and long. Boring. Contrived. Complete film school shite tbh.

That's not fair.

These people are professionals at ruining things. They've got decades of experience. Of course you can't compete with that.
