Matt Damon admits he thought Christopher Nolan was exaggerating when he warned him about making The Odyssey "He said, 'This is going to be really hard.'" "I've made like 80 movies. I know what hard is." "He looked at me and said, 'No... this is going to be really... hard.'" "To his credit... he was not lying." "It felt less like making a movie and more like going on an expedition." "We were on boats, in Morocco, in Greece, in Italy, in Iceland... every day was another adventure."show more

It's like a guy recreating the Mona Lisa with feces and depicting her as a bearded man. Yeah, it's gonna be hard, but is it even worth the effort? When you're done, it's no better than any other mockery, despite the difficulty.

Your analogy is totally off firstly And dont jump to conclusions on the success of the movie until it's released

No, my take is accurate. The difficulty of a project doesn't validate its content. He destroyed a classic, completely removed it from anything it represented and tried to staple some woke ideology to it. It's a dick move and no one had to watch it to see that.

@theJayJay0x He casted the best actors for the parts and your the one applying wokeness to the equation

Best actors? Not a chance. Matt Damon is the closest to decent casting and his acting is wooden and damn near type cast. This an obvious grab at an Academy Award. See below. Academy Representation and Inclusion Standards for Best Picture (2 of 4 required since 2024): A. On-Screen: Lead actor from underrepresented racial/ethnic group or 30% cast from 2+ groups or story centered on underrepresented group. B. Creative Leadership: At least 2 dept heads from underrepresented groups (at least 1 racial/ethnic). C. Industry Access: Paid apprenticeships/internships for underrepresented groups. D. Audience Development: Senior execs from underrepresented groups in key roles. Credit: Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. These standards were developed by a task force led by Academy governors DeVon Franklin and Jim Gianopulos as part of the Academy Aperture 2025 initiative. Announced September 2020 by President David Rubin and CEO Dawn Hudson.

@theJayJay0x What lead actor is from an underrepresented group when the 4 main characters are all white, ya twonk

Are you retarded, or did being a professional cuck destroy your brain? Not only did you not read the entirety of the requirements presented, nor how they're applied, you misrepresented the only portion you chose to comment on. Zendaya and Lupita and Elliot Page are all qualifying elements for the Academy Awards. Their colors aren't the issue, the complete lack of any Greek actors and complete separation from casting realism (a 5'1" "Greek warrior" built like a stable boy?) is the issue with casting.

Nolan's next one looks even better

the real hard part was having to swallow the piles of shit Nolan was shoveling

its wild the way the cast and crew is talking this up so big and none of it is translating to what’s been teased.

Ft.@TODAYshow Matt Damon

These people really don't know what hard is huh

If it is going to be such an epic movie why the hard sell from him?

Cause that's his job?

Making movies is hardly hard work, as hard work goes. Exaggerate much?

nolan warning him twice and still underselling it is very funny

And that is what’s going to make it feel all that much more immersive. Knowing the absolute hell they went thru to shoot practically, on location etc.

Fr

They turned it hard.

What??😂

All that just to make a piece of woke trash

Had to go to all these countries to film a movie on a viking ship sounds like a tough life while making millions

Так пусть идет на любое производство с теми зарплатами что на производстве.

Waste of time and money

YUM YUM DELICIOUS FECES. PLEASE GIVE US MORE NOLAN WE ARE UNWORTHY TO EAT YOUR FECES THANK YOU FOR SHITTING ON OUR PLATES

Matt looking so good to be in his 50's.

looks so boring

that sounds fun for everyone besides the viewer but its getting good precumsapparently

and no1 will watch it.. he should of saved himself when saw rest of cast

Looks like shit

Odysseus took 10 years to get home and was assaulted by all manner of monsters and wrath from Gods and he lost all his men but Damon the multi-millionaire Hollywood actor got a little seasick dressing up and playing pretend.

Oh my god so hard I was forced to travel the world adventuring and got paid tens of millions of dollars 🙄 shut up

You already 🪛'ed yourselves!

Fck this movie. Tired of all the shills sucking Nolan's duck.

Could be worse.

Good Lord he sucks.

Whatever. Not seeing it. Ever.

Go & dig roads, hard ffs!!!

yes, earning millions to be an actors, it's very hard.

Why does every single shot look ugly?

Twice the pride.. double the fall

All that work for DEI Slop. 😀😀

It’s gonna be even harder to watch
