Emily Wilson after watching the Odyssey:
‘The film presents an Odysseus who feels very bad about things that he's done in war, and is struggling to process them in a very modern, psychiatrised way – and needs drugs to do so! He seems to feel bad about being a warrior, and we never actually see him get to do much warrioring ... Nolan makes the protagonist a likeable, all-American hero; Homer's Odysseus wants glory, and he wants to get spoils from the sack of a city! I kept looking in vain for a sense that this was a film about glory. This is a film that has an interest in shame, but I don't think it has any interest in glory.’

Matt Damon admits he got completely lost in Anne Hathaway’s eyes while filming The Odyssey and Christopher Nolan couldn't stop raving about the dailies:
"I looked in your eyes and that was it... I got completely transported."
"Chris said after he saw the dailies that he was really excited about how it worked, and I said,
'That was Annie!'"
"It's like surfing a wave—you don't even have to think about it, you're just off."

@guideforlovers A PHD on a woman's wall is literally a deterrent towards men.

🚨Tina Forte has won the Republican nomination and will face Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in the general election for New York's 14th Congressional District.
After years of challenging AOC, Forte secured the GOP line and is now set to take on the socialist congresswoman in November.
This matchup gives voters in NY-14 a clear choice between continued far-left policies and a strong conservative alternative.

@FloraLuzz_ What the fuck are you talking about? This guy was a divisive and incompetent retard. Shit he gave Iran billions in palates of cash! Fucktard.

@mcafeenew Fake news. Nothing this reasonable happens in this country anymore.

@mitchellvii They are cultists of a violent and depraved ideology.
STOP expecting them to behave like rational people!

It's honestly confusing.
Iran was set up to have about $100 billion in assets unfrozen. In addition, they were going to get $300 billion in investments from their Arab neighbors.
All they had to do was stop acting like assholes for 5 minutes.
They literally couldn't do it. They fired on shipping and bombed their Arab neighbors, the very countries that would be investing $300 billion in them.
And all to to get a nuke that would be a suicide mission if they ever used it?
I honestly feel sorry for President Trump. How do you negotiate with crazy people?

@TheGasStovee Yeah let’s see the week 2/3 retention. It’s likely to crash and burn once the paid Astro turf campaigners (like you) are over. Eventually they have to sell tickets to normal people.
It’s possible this movie could break even. But I really doubt it.

@IstaPhobos Still not sure it will make money. Thinking Week 2 and 3 drop off will be catastrophic.
