There are people spamming under every post about this movie about how unrealistic it is that the characters in this are wearing pants. The "valid critique" you're talking about is a bunch of people acting like doing a less historically accurate version of the definitive fantasy story of all time is somehow an insane or creatively bankrupt take. Very few make these arguments about other films of its nature (the Northman/the Green Knight come to mind), and even less fantastical ones, but now because it's Nolan, every one has to chime in like they're some sort of expert on history.
Historical accuracy can be an awesome tool (Oppenheimer is startlingly accurate, down to exact verbiage in many scenes), but sometimes it's okay to go with something more modern/broad to appeal to a timelessness nature that having pantsless men with giant tusked hats and painted yellow armor will not bring.
I'm not saying you're doing this but often the same people levying this "valid critique" in every single discussion circle are indistinguishable from the same people complaining about people of color being main characters.
I didn’t realize this was such a big debate. Tbh I was just sharing my personal critique/take, not trying to echo any larger argument.
I know it’s Nolan so it’s different but I watched the return earlier this year & thought it was ok, absolutely nobody was focused on the historical substance of that as should be the case with something that’s so plainly fantastical & oft reinterpreted broadly, it’s just annoying to continue to read about
It looks fine and these set pictures that they send to the magazines always look off from the actual film

people forget this is the first photo that came out from Interstellar

Can't bring myself to care about this one
Looks like a pass from me
I care cause it's Nolan, but don't at same time cause Matt Damon & Tom Holland 🤮🤮🤮

Nolan has my full trust with the casting decisions

I bet they’ll be speaking English instead of Ancient Greek in this movie as well. Not watching this unrealistic bs

its gonna look glorious
We need more full iMAX blockbusters from here on
people really thinking pictures from the set are shots from the movie
I Forget which movie people did this over but this all happened before. Set photos for a magazine spread and people complained about the lens and lighting as if it’s from the actual movie cameras. These empire pics are obviously not from a hoyte van hotema shot 70mm movie.
That trailer needs to come out to silence the noise
I care cause it's Nolan, but don't at same time cause Matt Damon & Tom Holland 🤮🤮🤮
Agreed, can’t take either of them seriously. Everything else about this is looking like absolute peak tho
Pattinson as the villain in a Nolan movie
Pattinson as Antinous is perfect, slimy prick but still charming. Who is left that can play Hermes?
There may actually be too many ppl in this
Not really. It’s required for the story lol

Too many high profile celebs may be distracting. We playing where’s Waldo in the theater?
charlize a better fit for athena imo
Athena's almost always depicted and described as a younger daughter of Zeus
