Nolan's The Odyssey - Potentially could be epic or an epic flop.

I feel like such a movie would not be affected by that. Most people know of the Odyssey, have read it as children and know what it is about. R rating means that it will not sugarcoat things. That being said, everything else that goes on with this movie will be its downfall.
R rated movies pretty much always have a lower ceiling in the summer because you lose out on the teenagers looking for something to do and the family demographic.

Those demos are for example setting up Moana for 80 million open and Minions for 100 million. A movie like Spiderman gets to capture both the Odyssey demo and the family demo. Same as Toy Story. Thats partially why those movies seem like they have a path to a billion and this one its questionable.

That is counteracted by 3 reasons: 1) R rating can attract those that want to see such a film but are turned off by otherwise kid friendly movies. 2) It is Nolan so he has a good enough track record to take the family or the group despite the rating. 3) It is a well known epic and thus there are some privileges allowed that can make this a must for at least a family with teenagers. I read the Odyssey in middle school as a school exercise. I know about it and how gory it can get. I watched even the old adaptation and they don't sugarcoat it.

HOWEVER, Nolan took solid gold and turned it into liquid shit! He snatched defeat from the jaws of certain victory! Everyone knows this is a skippable movie.
 
Page is now supposedly playing a character called Sinon as leaked by the Hungarian distributor via a list of the cast and the Hungarian dub VAs.

"Sinon was a Greek soldier part of Odysseus' fleet. He is not mentioned by Homer, but his story is given in the Aeneid of Virgil and other accounts, as a treacherous agent of the Greeks who misleads the Trojans, encouraging them to bring the Trojan Horse inside the city. He sometimes appears in art, usually being dragged into Troy as a captive, with the horse behind him."

Nolan has a weird sense of humor.
 
Do you think Nolan will finally fix his audio mixing with this one? (Lol, lmao)
Making movies for IMAX is really fucking stupid in general. First off, not everyone wants to spend on IMAX tickets, so the majority of first-time viewers aren't in IMAX theaters. Second, if I want to see the movie again, I'm watching it on my home TV, which is not an IMAX screen. Third, it's been around for decades and still hasn't hit economy of scale, thus proving it's a dead-end format. The purpose of IMAX is that it enhances already good movies, not be a standard that forces movies to downgrade their quality when they aren't IMAX.

Makes you wonder why he kept it hidden in the first place.

Not to mention 99% of people are going to see some zoomed in 16:9 version of the movie and not the original 4:3 version of the movie defeating the purpose of the whole thing.

At least Snyder committed to using real IMax for all releases of Justice League.
