@mrwtffacts 12 years for murder? I hope the brother was waiting to complete the sentence once the murderer was released.

In 1995, 15-year-old Nicole van den Hurk was raped & murdered on her way to school in the Netherlands. The case went cold for 16 years. Then, suddenly, her stepbrother Andy confessed on Facebook: “I killed my little sister” Police arrested him… but all was not as it seemed. It was, in fact, a deliberate false confession. Andy’s plan? Force them to exhume Nicole’s body for modern DNA testing. The insane gamble worked. In 2014, the real killer, a man with prior rape convictions, was caught & sentenced to 12 years.

I’ve never quite understood how I’ll get “left behind” if I don’t use AI. I’m perfectly capable of writing, researching, and thinking all on my own. What does it do that will leave me behind?

It’s kinda funny how polarized culture war shit has gotten that if iron man was made today the online right would be melting down over Samuel L Jackson being cast as Nick Fury

The history nerd in me wishes that Nolan had made an Odyssey that felt like it was taking place in the late Bronze Age Mediterranean, but it's clear from all of his creative choices that he went for the fantasy movie version instead. Which was his choice. I just hope it's good.

I do want to remind everyone that Christopher Nolan is responsible for the most rightwing major studio film of all the time, The Dark Knight Rises. So perhaps we should wait to see The Odyssey before all making up our minds about it.

To be eligible to win Best Picture at the Oscars… 1. At least 1 Non-White/Non-Straight lead or Significant Role. 2. At least 30% minor roles Non-White/Non-Straight people. 3. At least 2 Departments headed by Non-White/Non-Straight people. This is why Nolan did it. Coward.

Mel Gibson would have had an all Greek cast speaking in Greek and like 10 minute scenes of a dude just getting his skull caved in for no reason

@Variety Chris Nolan is pissing on Homer’s grave. Disgraceful.

Penelope is the equal to Odysseus, otherwise she would have not been able to hold her own for twenty years. Otherwise she would not have waited for him, and he would not have married her in the first place. She is every bit as crafty as he is, and is meant to be his parallel. I think this comes through in the original tale. She’s also modest and patient. It’s an error to box her into more modern gender roles, whether that is trad or feminist.
Culture Crusader@VirtueCrusader

Anne Hathaway shares how her character of Penelope is characterized in Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey: "There’s this impression of Penelope that she’s kind of the picture of modesty. She’s the picture of patience. And I said, ‘Chris, if I’m not mistaken, you’ve written someone who is full of fury and you seem to be implying that she’s actually Odysseus’ equal.’ I found her to be this volcano of a human that was always simmering. It was really fun when she finally exploded." Is this what you expect from Penelope or has modern feminism creeped its way into the film?

@LauraRbnsn Helen of Troy is half-god. So even tho she’s fifty— casting someone in their early 20s is totally plausible.

Name a 50 Year Old Actress Who Could Play Helen of Troy Challenge. Everyone out here is naming women in their early 20s who should have been in the Odyssey, which would make the Oath of Tyndareus happen when Helen was in preschool.

Christopher Nolan did not cast a single Greek actor in a prominent role in an adaptation of the most famous piece of Greek literature in history. But he did find a role for a rapper and trans activist. Think about that.

@IMAO_ Unfortunately, the casting adhered to new Academy rules so that it would be eligible for awards. This alone has killed its momentum since it placed award season criteria ahead of creative freedom.

Christopher Nolan has a much better track record than perennially angry people online, so my trust remains with him. Odyssey could be terrible. I would not put money on it, though.

Congo is actually the superior 90s Michael Crichton adaptation. Jurassic Park is great, but does it have Tim Curry doing a questionable accent and Bruce Campbell dying in the first 5 minutes? No. 🎬🎥 Congo 🔥❤️
