@seerg @ReelShiftJoe Ahhh. This explains why you care so much about a random stranger on X.
You have no one in your life that cares about you.
Yeesh, I feel bad for the women you stalk. 🤣😅😂

So its not about race swapping its about casting someone you personally find attractive. Certainly not about talent as Lupita is a great actress. The narrative is crumbling i think. #TheOdyssey

If they wanted a Black Helen of Troy they could have casted Nathalie Emmanuel

Because Dunkirk and Oppenheimer are based on true real-life events, while The Odyssey is Greek mythology. Hope this helps!

I still don't understand why Christopher Nolan did this with The Odyssey and it's casting while He did so much research when he was making Oppenheimer, Dunkirk , every little detail like look , walk , how the characters should talk , but in this movie why he left the story's most important character Helen of Troy like this . Helen of Troy is the reason for the fall of Troy , The Trozen Horse war ... Lupita Nyong'o is very talented , she is a very good actress .. why did Christopher Nolan choose her?? Still don't understand

@KyleSantia55572 @dcoya64 Musk is the one who said that first and then everybody copy-pasted it. We are all trolling that's why we are here doing the same. Hope u enjoy it as much as I do. Cheers

@Nah_DontThinkSo @ReelShiftJoe Me? Stalking my profile and you suddenly put these random arguments from nowhere, it's so obvious you talking about yourself haha
English
@seerg @ReelShiftJoe Holy shit, you've lost your mind over some mediocre movie. 🤣
You need therapy, kid. If a little movie makes you this passionately whiney, you've got problems. 😬
English
@KyleSantia55572 @dcoya64 Movie doesn't need that for Oscar noms because with Emma Thomas (producer) and Jennifer Lame (editing) they could have an entire white casting like Oscar winner Oppenheimer. But you've been fooled by Elon Musk and manipulated by an algorithm so u still think that's true poor boy.
English
@KyleSantia55572 @dcoya64 Calm down, in the Odyssey it's just Helen, and you should know why is only that character and not others (cuz she's half human, born from an egg whose father is a swan). In an adaptation such a different origin story from the others needs an equivalent of different origin.
English
@dcoya64 Nolan’s next project is a remake of Zulu. The tribe is played exclusively by Asians. The British soldiers are played exclusively by trans black women. Just a little cultural appropriation - no big deal right? The Odyssey is Greek culture. Hope that helps!

With three minutes in the mag on IMAX versus no artificial time limits in digital cinema -- which is better for performance? Another downside to IMAX for dramatic cinema.
Variety@Variety
Tom Holland thought Christopher Nolan hated his performance on his first day filming "The Odyssey" because he kept calling cut. In reality, Nolan's cuts were due to the limitations of the Imax cameras: “And in my head, I was like, ‘Does he not like what we’re doing? What is happening?’ And then, I remember it was actually [stunt coordinator] George Cottle that was like, ‘No, no, no, there’s only three minutes in the mag.’ I was like, ‘Oh, thank god.’ I thought I was totally shitting the bed in this scene.” variety.com/2026/film/news…

@airbagged2077 @Daystarz01 He just want to hate. Reality and truth not gonna stop him loool
English
@Daystarz01 It's called translating it into English...
"Pinning for papa" does not sound right.
You actially made a dumber tweet.
English
Oh for fuck sake. There was an Ancient Greek for equivalent for "Daddy". It is pretty clear it's being used to infantilize Holland's character.
These people are grasping at straws and it shows.

I watched the trailer again but man these dialogues just get worse. What you mean this movie is based on a historical epic?
English
Again, no. Myth isn't fiction, and that's the whole point you keep sliding past. Fiction is invented out of nothing. Myth is a people telling the story of itself, and this particular people left cities and graves and a written script behind. So no, this isn't a Marvel comic where the source is forty years old and nobody's ancestors are on the line. It's Homer.
After the Bible, it's about as close to a founding text of the West as anything we've got. And it's set in a real place among real people. The Achaeans were real. We've dug them up. We've also sequenced them.
Whatever they looked like, it wasn't sub-Saharan Africa.
English
FIRST OF ALL, the character in this screenshot is Clytemnestra, not Helen of Troy. Second of all, The Odyssey is FICTION.

The Odyssey will benefit from tickets that were sold prior to the release of the trailers and the exposure of the casting disaster.
The second week drop will be one of the largest in history and the film will slow to a crawl and fall short of breaking even.
Global Box Office@GlobalBoxOffice
Christopher Nolan’s THE ODYSSEY countdown trailer has become the most disliked Hollywood trailer since the trailer for SNOW WHITE with Rachel Zegler. THE ODYSSEY now has an estimated ~80% dislikes, while SNOW WHITE had ~95% dislikes.

Christopher Nolan has delivered the final bloated, woke corpse of legacy Hollywood, a desecration of Homer’s Odyssey.
This is it.

@eekknd @MaxTwain24 What times to be alive. You are in denial mode, so you really think reality is what you want to believe not what it is, right? Maybe earth is flat after all
English
@seerg @MaxTwain24 Who the fuck listening to critics? And that's before critics are bought
English
@Nah_DontThinkSo @ReelShiftJoe Hahaha you’ve got me wrong. I actually want you never to see it. I’ll be laughing for the rest of my life knowing you missed out on it just because an algorithm planted that idea in your head. It's like not watching the Matrix cuz u heard is woke? Love how they manipulated you
English
@seerg @ReelShiftJoe What the hell, you're STILL whining about a film I'm not even going to see? 😭
English
@Nah_DontThinkSo @ReelShiftJoe There’s no need to cut anything out, even if it isn’t mentioned. Beauty is subjective and the only one who’ll be judging here is Menelaus, no one else. So yes, she is Helen of Troy cuz Menelaus will think so. It’s as simple as that. But you can carry on denying it, it’s fun.
English
@seerg @ReelShiftJoe Well yeah, they'd have to cut "the face that launched 1,000 ships" thing because Nolan's Helen sure as hell doesn't fit THAT description.
So, then what? It brings us back to the main point. If she's not "the face that launched 1,000 ships", then she's not Helen of Troy.
English
@artwithinpod It might happen before they see it. After that soon or later they'll realize they spent time hating for nothing and the movie was not what they thought.
English
prepare yourself: The Odyssey is going to get a terrible Rotten Tomatoes audience score, an even worse IMDB score, and probably an A- CinemaScore. I’ll let you put together why that is
English
Matt Damon says he only landed Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey after Christian Bale, Tom Hardy and Leonardo DiCaprio all passed
"Chris normally hires from the pool of actors he knows. The people in my cohort are Christian, Tom Hardy, Leo, Matthew, JD, Rob, Hugh Jackman and Cillian. It’s a murderer’s row of great actors"
"All of them would have been fantastic, but they all passed. What are the chances every single one of them would pass?"
"So I’m sitting there going, he’s about to look outside. I better take this, because outside you’ve got Brolin, Benicio and Sean Penn. I’m screwed, so I’m jumping on this thing"

El cine murió cuando para entrar nominado a los Oscar tienes que tener una cuota mínima de minorías en tu reparto.
Nos robaron a una Helena de Troya perfecta como Sydney Sweeney por meter a una negra random y optar al Oscar.
