Well thank you both. That clears this up. The only thing is... I'm not sure Tom Holland will grow a beard no matter how old he gets.
Holland already has a beard, it's called Zendaya.

But seriously, Telemachus needs a beard because it's part of the character. At the end of the Hallmark's Odyssey, I'm sure Telemachus has a beard.
 
Unless he's a late bloomer, he couldn't be older than 13 or 14. I dunno how old you should be to rule on your own, but the beard was seen as becoming old enough to be considered a man.
Unless my memory is wrong, Telemachus has to be at least 20. He was a baby when Odysseus went to fight in the war. He tried to get out of it by faking insanity, so he was ploughing and pretended to be insane while ploughing. To prove he was insane, Palamedes put baby Telemachus in front of the plough, because if Odysseus truly was insane, then he wouldn't care that his son was there. But he couldn't bring himself to run over the baby with his plough. So not being insane, he went to fight in the Trojan War.

The Trojan War was ten years and then Odysseus wandered for another ten years.

Yep, that's why I (think?) said that he needs to be 20 at the end of the story, by the time Odysseus return home. I might need to read again for the time line between the start of the book and the end.
 
Wasn't Oppenheimer just whitewashing like Trumbo but for red scientists instead of screenwriters? I was never interested in it.
Not really because Trumbo pretty much wholesale ignored the only piece of work people associate Dalton Trumbo with (Johnny Got His Gun) by name.

If it was like the Cranston film, Oppenheimer would have omitted the entire atomic bomb storyline

No straight man would ever be caught dead doing this. White women on the internet went nuts over it because they fetishize homosexuals for some insane reason.

Yet people are going to act shocked when it turns out RDJr and Nolan were raping him when he was a kid and they will act more shocked when he rapes kids and say there was no way anyone could see this coming.
 
So Pattinson has a brain. Everyone else said "Matt. Damon."
Pattinson likes to act all quirky and weird, but it's been quite obvious for people paying attention that it's just an act and he's more grounded than your average celebrity idiot.

How much of a brain can he have if he still said "Yes" to this?
We all have bills to pay. Also, I'm sure the script didn't say that Helen was going to be black.

I say this as someone who has a 165 IQ and was able to follow what was going on in 2001 when I saw it on TV in grade school, WHAT THE FUCK WAS GOING ON IN TENAT?!
I think it's in the same interview, but Pattinson asks exactly the same thing.
 
It's sad. I can see Holland and the Twilight queer acting like fags, but I can't remember Damon ever being such a twink like this before in a movie or promotion.
Well he was Liberace’s lover in Behind the Candelabra. If that means anything.
Pattinson has experience with Nolan's shitty scripts from Tenet, but ultimately said yes again for the money.
It’s like how Ben Affleck was critical of Armageddon and how it was filmed but still starred in Michael Bay’s Pearl Harbor three years later. It’s about the money.

Obviously these actors accepted because it’s Christopher Nolan and, at least for now, he’s considered a financial powder keg.
 
He is launching a brand alchole free beer, I am not sure Holland can grow a dick, let alone a beard.
I will stick up for Holland here and say that the reason he launched the brand was because he realized in 2022 that he was becoming an alcoholic, went teetotaler, and wanted to make something beer-esque for recovering alcoholics to enjoy while not putting their recovery in jeopardy. It's an admirable reason to make a product like that imo.
 
Bro, they're usually called malt beverages. I used to work with this Cuban and he'd grab us a case once in a while. Looks like a beer, but tastes better. They don't all have to be hitter tasting like beer.
Those are popular in the Caribbean, I think. I've seen Colombian and Venezuelans drink that.

I tried it once and I still have nightmares.

It was a story written by someone who thought they were really smart and tried to do a time travel plot with an "in reverse" hunt for a literal Mcguffin, the villain is far off into the future when civilization is wrecked by shit that doesn't matter, and needs physical device called the Algorithm for reasons that don't matter because the future version of the Protag has already won before anything has occured, and the events of the story are essentially the "ending" to this time traveling feud, at the end when they split up the devise, that is the literal checkmate, but now the Protag has to work backwards (what is chronologically forward) to insure the events play out the same, which they will, because everything is deterministic, and everyone knows it.

which is why its retarded, nothing in the past can be changed, time travel doesn't matter because its all deterministic, the villain would know this, and since he doesn't have the Mcguffin at the start of his hunt for it (since its in the past) he will never get it, but the writers are too retarded to factor this OBVIOUS FUCKING POINT IN.

Mind you, Attack on Titan has this same plot structure in the last half, except the fact everything is deterministic is used to brutally break Eren's will so that he will do the events (that he will always do) so that Ymir will be free, as she has manipulated for 2000 years before Eren was ever even born, which he also knows, he simply can do nothing but the plan, because, as Ymir already knows, its the one outcome that Eren gets anything out of, which he also knows.
