I hope Nolan keeps him true to his scumbag roots

You know that ain't how it goes

 

[Mister Terrific]

You know that ain't how it goes

Damn near close to. Iliad Odysseus is a monster. Odyssey Odysseus is just a scumbag.

Oh I don't dispute that but you know they gotta make their protagonists likeable to the modern audience

 

[Trav]

This needs to be at least three hours

*Four

Just can't see this not being fire

 

[Osmosis]

Is this a smokescreen? I'm not interested in no odyssey

Yeah I was hoping for something original

Curious to see how he pulls this off though

[Neuromancer]

I'm tired of this Greek tragedy shyt.

I'm tired of this Greek tragedy shyt.

??????

 

[Ironman]

Probably Damon or Pattinson

My bet

 

[Fillerguy]

Holland probably playing his hoe ass son. I hope so.

 

[Rain]

I don't expect a straight adaptation. Nolan has pretty much always provided a "practical" vision when it comes to directing a sci-fi/comic story. I'm not expecting some epic fantasy.

 

[Ozymandeas]

I hope it's more like Inception and less like Tenet.

Just tell a straight story and make it cinematic (ala the movie Troy). Don't try to do all that fancy pretentious shyt

 

[Ozymandeas]

Tom Holland as Odysseus...?

Yea, that's dumb. Tom Holland should play Odysseus's son.

Pattinson should be Odysseus.
