I mean...we gotta launch a thousand ships.

If Nolan is going space marine armor, Viking longboats, and normie American accents, we CAN GET a triple D Helen.

I skipped to the moment that matters. if you're easily triggered by Kimmel, don't watch the first 8 minutes. If you do watch them, don't post about it.

Just spent two weeks in Europe (mostly Italy, then France, couple days in Spain). The marketing for the Odyssey is literally everywhere. Next closest, surprisingly, was the He Man movie lol..

I wonder if this director will find Nolan's Odyssey inclusive enough.

Someone is a queer filmmaker because they choose to be. And it's not about their sexual choices, it's about how one chooses to broadcast them (or not) and leverage them at work. I honestly have no idea if Nolan is straight or gay and don't care. He's a filmmaker that has made films I like. But if he or any other filmmaker wants to start weaving odd aspects (be it casting, stories, etc) into his films that seem like there is some other motive that doesn't fit, the chances I'll like those films starts decreasing.

Per their Wikipedia page, Schoenbrun's work explores themes including dysphoria, describing it as "central to their art" and "drawing on experiences from...unarticulated feelings regarding their queer identity." Schoenbrun describes one of their movies as "a film about the 'egg crack', a term for the moment in a trans person's life when they realize their identity does not correspond to their assigned gender."

I wonder why they're described as a queer filmmaker?

Is that guy seriously warning people to avoid spoilers? As if this is a new story Nolan created, and we don't already know the ending to?

There's a difference between knowing the plot and knowing how Nolan executes the plot. Big picture, you may know how the story goes/ends, but we don't know yet how Nolan presents it, constructs it, etc.

I sure he's holding back on the trailers, because they've been boring.

Sadly Xer Jane doesn't have far to go to beat Nolan.

Nolan = complete hack

Yeah. I get what he means just still comes across as humerous to me.

I'm a big proponent of not showing all your big moments in the trailers but yeah man, they still could have done better with the trailers. But oh well, here I am getting sucked in and excited. I really do hope this is a combination of the action and intensity of The Dark knight and the visuals and scope of Interstellar.

I'm assuming this is rated R because of violence? My 12yo is obsessed with Greek gods stuff (thanks to Percy Jackson) and really wants to see this with me. She's seen other R stuff like Die Hard and Baby Driver, but if there is like a super sexual scene I'd probably skip taking her.
