In “Apocalypto,” Mel Gibson transports you into the mind of a Mayan 500 years ago. In “The Northman,” Robert Eggers transports you into the mind of a Viking a thousand years ago. In “The Odyssey,” Christopher Nolan transports you into the mind of a liberal woman in 2017.

The message of Nolan's Odyssey is be kind, process your guilt, listen to women, and know when to step aside keithwoods.com/p/the-odyssey

This is bullshit Matt and you know it. Nolan is transporting us into the body of a woman who wants you call her a man, an African who wants you to call her Greek and the village people who want you to call them Oscar winners.

Homer wrote The Odyssey nearly 3,000 years ago. If you think it's a 2017 political story, that's probably saying more about you than the film.

The Odyssey is a hit, and has done more to encourage people to study the ancient classics than you ever have in your whole life.

I guess historical inaccuracies are okay when it suits your agenda 👍

Do you think that Mel Gibson agrees with you about Nolan’s Odyssey film?

Too extreme, Matt. C’mon, Mel’s great but Braveheart is importing post-Enlightenment values into medieval battle. Virgil and Dante and Tennyson all “updated” the Odyssey. Do liberal women in 2017 hate deception and desecration? You really want to take your older kids to watch 12 unfaithful maids forced to clean up gore and then executed by Telemachus?

Last of the Mohicans with Daniel Day Lewis was epic. The Oddity, not so much.

... Yes! Amen!! MEL treated the Yucatec Maya with Respect. Nolan shit on the Greek People, Heroic Mythology, and the basis for European Culture - all to push the Same Old Lunatic Liberal tropes... ... I say: BADO...

I sure don’t want to be transported into the mind of a liberal woman in 2017. Not going to let that happen.

The Odyssey could have been historic. Instead it was Los Angeles dressed up as Ancient Greece.

Mel also had an Irish/Swiss guy play Jesus in Passion of Christ. The movie was a blockbuster. Same for Odyssey. Only a vocal minority on X care. Americans are focused on paying their bills and getting by. Culture war is dead. Class war is on a hi speed train. Calm the waters. Don’t stoke the fire.

When you could need possibly as much as $700 million gross to break even you might not wanna roll the dice on weakness.

Even Professor Emily Wilson, whose 2017 translation it seems to be majorly inspired by, is highly critical of the film

Liberals are brainless and so dumb they are bankrupting an industry. You could make a good video short on the financial disasters they produce - to themselves! I like it a lot!
