I dont rate things with numbers personally. I said I think its a movie where your first watch and that crowd experience blind ( as someone who read it in highschool 20 years ago and hasnt read it since) was a good time. Its not the greatest movie of all time. Its not perfect nor is it trying to be but its a good communal movie about the downfall of a society and it potentially rising again
comparing to all his movies and nostalgia and review scores has never been for me. Its part of why I dont really gravitate to letterboxd
By not gravitate to you know you mean wishing for the downfall of

I dont fully understand the sentence you are creating. The downfall of American empire because it in many ways lost its soul and needs to find its soul again. Its about having hope after all of that. After realizing we are the imperialist evil we were sold in history books about other countries. We are the monsters we fear the most. Not outside but inside. they didnt change us it always existed within us. A dream or delusion to believe it isnt us
Emily Wilson hates it so they were right.
Nah that chicks review sounded petty as hell. Lost her credibility tbh, she sounded ridiculous

she grifting a bit or upset she wasnt called

I'm just talking about letterboxd
Pretty sure I saw you relishing the fact that they might get sold to Netflix or whichever corp is gonna enshittify it
Wilson said she would be ashamed to write the movie.
Like alright bih now you sound like weirdo

I have said I never liked Letterboxd culture or what its become already of meme reviews. People becoming too obssesed with scores of "you gave this score but this this" when I have always said even before all of that when I went to art school I dont like how people review things. I dont like how people speak on art in general . Its why I discuss things in length here
The perception change on Nolan btw is insane, it even happened on this site I swear but you mainly see/saw it on Twitter

I get it and also don't like to slap a superficial score on a powerful piece of art. But it also helps me remember what I thought of a movie that I watched 6 years ago and have totally forgotten so it can be handy for that. That's the main benefit of the app for me.
I am ready for my 70mm IMAX watch. Its an enjoyable movie for its time with flaws. That helped see parts of Nolan we dont see in all his films. While also refining some of his previous elements.
comparing this to batman begins feels odd
Not really comparing it to Batman Begins. Just feel like I enjoy that movie more within Nolan's ouvre.

I think its too difficult to compare movies I saw for the first time 20 years ago in a different mindstate and time period but I get it
After thinking about it for a few days I'm feeling like this was lower middle tier Nolan. Not touching Interstellar, Tenet, Dark Knight, Oppy or Batman Begins even.
However I do usually appreciate a second watch more for him so it might shake out differently later.
And I don't know if it was just my theatre but this s*** was way too f***ing loud for me
the movie is cool but definitely middle of the pack for me
Sinon was really burning in hell with “i died broke with no hoes” as the main gripe to Oddesyus. no wonder they were calling him the bravest man to ever live
just saw it in imax 70mm
was peak visually
poor script tho
overall might be bottom nolan

No doubt. And like I said, Nolan rewatches often hit harder than first watch so I'm leaving the possibility of the Odyssey going up in my estimation down the road. Oppy definitely did. Dunkirk however did not.
another thing i love is that this movie f***ing ends when it’s over. there’s no 20 minute sequence about him improving Ithaca, it cuts to credits with arrows still poking out from the last fight. absolute cinema

Yeah they hit harder on the second watch because you often can’t hear the audio first time around

We live in a world of trade and language
Nah that chicks review sounded petty as hell. Lost her credibility tbh, she sounded ridiculous
Eh. Honestly, I might see her point of view depending on this second watch. The spectical of the story and film is pretty amazing, but reading about how her version is written there is a lot of stuff left out of the movie for Odysseus character and how the suitors were portrayed. Still one of my fav movies atm.
