    Eggers is happy with the film! and said it’s the first one he was in post production with and didn’t want to kill himself

    instagram.com/reel/DENWCRwJSJ0/?igsh=ZHgwY3Q1YjIzOWcz

    He suffered through Northman and got this huge commercial and artistic win a few years later

    Need to see this again in 35mm

    Only seen Poor Things and I made the mistake of reading the book as well

    It's not like everyone spoke in iambic pentameter a hundred or two years ago

    D***ens, Twain, Verne etc are still really accessible to our modern language. Read Dracula and Frankenstein when I was like 12.

    I read Frankenstein for the first time this year, it's pretty accessible

    I feel like the studio didn’t know how to market that movie tbh so it got vastly overlooked. There really was like no hype when that move came out

    I think general audiences were under the assumption that the movie would just be a generic Viking movie so they didn’t give it much attention

    I mean just look at the official poster they chose to use

    Tbh barring advertising it as white panther, I don't think anyone was going in droves to see a mystical, esoteric, historical horror drama about Vikings that was 2 and some change hours long doesn't make it not a classic but still like, that's not surprising

    Yeah, just saying I usually feel some level of distance, but I’m not the most well read

    Personally, I preferred Northman to this

    Tree of Kings was fire

    I usually dont do a star rating for first watches of major s*** but I was comfortable slapping this with a 4.5 right away

    The casual moviegoer is probably going to clock out when he COMMUNES WITH YGGDRASIL or maybe with SHAMAN BJORK

    Why we being obtuse lol

    I didnt disagree with the "mystical" but I dont think the two or three out-there scenes make the whole thing too esoteric for you casual filmgoer

    I dont think Leonidas communing with the Ephors in 300 made it too inaccessible to the millions of dudes that watched it
