Grogu will discard the Mandalorian/Jedi ways by the end of the Mando-Verse. It’s genuinely what is best for the character and has been set-up since his introduction. A thread. (Mostly for me so I can pin it.)

@ariesshaina163 @TWarPhilosopher And Homer lived centuries after the Trojan War. The whole idea of Homeric Tradition is the evolution of the stories. The “inaccuracies” people talk about with Nolan’s take of the story is precisely how the story has been told since its conception.

@davidpockets90 @TWarPhilosopher But still wasn't in Homer either, but people act like if Achilles had lost a lover in the Illiad when Patroclus died. But HOMER never mentions such a thing. Plato and Aeschylus lived centuries apart from Homer.

These two books were disastrous for humanity and study of the Ancients. Miller convinced leftists Achilles and Patroclus were gay lovers and Wilson translated the Iliad to implicitly hint at this. Christopher Nolan’s Odyssey is the final straw to ruin Homer.

The Dark Lord returns. Season 3 begins November 11, 2026

@thatstarwarsgrl This is the actor who played Achilles in Troy

Ugh

Dear Rian... I find it interesting that you share a multitude of your opinions here on twitter... -And then there's this one... If you're bold enough to share this opinion, and your opinion is that others shouldn't have opinions, I'd say no deal. Sorry. Just my opinion.

@RobertBlume8 @ghoulbasement That is not a coherent sentence

@davidpockets90 @ghoulbasement Then you about its less accurate than Troy

Warner should re-release this to theaters on Odyssey's opening weekend just to be dicks.

Glad to see the Star Fox remake, but who else has been clucking for some new Star Wars Rogue Squadron? We need a new game in the series, I'd even settle for remakes/remasters right now. Who's with me? Btw, Dolphin with HD textures does a smashing job in Rogue Squadron 2

@RobertBlume8 @ghoulbasement Nah, no really. Just like how in Aronofsky’s Noah, I wasn’t bothered by his interpretation of having Biblical decayed skyscraper cities. Or how in Braveheart how the Scots were wearing kilts well before they would’ve, or how in Disney’s Hercules…well everything.

@davidpockets90 @ghoulbasement Odyssey and illiad aren't the same story so you can't directly compare them. But you wanna talk about steel part armor existing 2400 years before it was invented?

@RobertBlume8 @ghoulbasement So your idea of “accurate” has nothing to do with the story? Because the only things it gets correct are basically from a Wikipedia summary. Also, Elliot Page isn’t confirmed to be Achilles. Just rumored.

@davidpockets90 @ghoulbasement But it is. Helen is an actual beautiful woman and Achilles is a man. 100 percent more accurate

@witmiller @VALC_6 So Charleston Heston or Sir Alec Guinness in brown face isn’t offensive?

@davidpockets90 @VALC_6 It seems like one of the worst offenders with the most obvious and random changes for absolutely no benefit?

Nolan is so funnily stupid sometimes - shoots "on location" for places that don't exist anymore, avoids CGI at all costs because of "realism" but couldn't care less about the historical realism of the costumes, sets or actors. His mind is an enigma.

@CultureCrave He’s looking at you @therealsupes

Robert Downey Jr thinks it's 'absolute horseshit' to declare influencers the stars of the future “When I hear people talk about, ‘Oh, the stars of the future are going to be influencers,’ I go, ‘I don’t know what world you’re living in, I think that that is absolute horseshit’” “My son ... he kinda got caught up [following] this whole influencer thing. Next thing you know it’s ‘Hey, if you like the way I’m playing this video game, do you want to send me a donation?’ and really, it becomes like a religion ... They’re almost the evangelical hucksters of the Information Age” (via Bran Ferren)

@thatstarwarsgrl This is proof it’s all race-based. Troy is an absolute bastardization of The Illiad and the bits of The Odyssey incorporated into it. Sure, Pitt is great as Achilles but it’s like saying Dragon Ball Evolution is better than Z. Once again proof none of y’all read this.

Everything in Nolan’s Odyssey is a downgrade. Even the horse

@1206genghiskhan @heavyspoilers @linwoodsq Troy bastardizes the Illiad in the way people are claiming that The Odyssey is.

@heavyspoilers @linwoodsq Watch Troy, it’s amazing

Everyone knows the Ancient Greeks had British accents so I dunno wtf Christopher Nolan is doing

@BurbunPitt He was also banging Patroclus.

Achilles was demigod & icon of war and glory, Nolan literally cast a trans actor for Achilles in The Odyssey Troy's Achilles Tf is this

I know for a FACT a lot of the voices hating on The Odyssey trailer have never actually read the Odyssey. I wish people would stop pretending. You read some chapters in school and watched the TV Series. Internet “experts” are annoying as fuck.

@ElGrecoAnglos @tokyosdaughter @odysseymovie What skin color do folks in the Middle East have?

@davidpockets90 @tokyosdaughter @odysseymovie What skin colours do people in the Eastern Mediterranean have?

Defy the Gods. Watch the New Trailer for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey and experience the film in theaters 7 17 26.

@tokyosdaughter @odysseymovie Brown, black, copper skinned, he sure as hell wasn’t white. Lol

@davidpockets90 @odysseymovie Are you saying Jesus is black?

Bourdain was a hero of mine growing up. I’ve read Kitchen Confidential more times than I can count. Matthew Johnson rules. I fuck with this big time. Most anticipated movie of the year.
