Fantasy Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

Kind of surprising that someone of his caliber took this on. Looking through past DGA leadership, it’s been TV directors and lower level film directors for awhile now.

Definitely part of Nolan's fight to preserve theatres, the theatrical experience, the quality of film/IMAX and the talents behind the camera being unified on this vision.

Wasn't this the same union that unanimously voted that AI is cool with them to use in films including replacing actors?

I really want/need this film to be a home run and the ultimate middle finger to the entire idea of AI filmmaking ever replacing real filmmaking. No pressure lol. Something about a practical, in-camera approach to the ultimate fantasy epic feels like it's right on time though. The film industry is in such a weird spot right now and it's hard to have a sense of where it's all gonna go in the future, but I'm really glad Nolan is still swinging the bat as a counterpoint to the conventional "wisdom" of the trends and (hopefully) proving the audience is still there for it.

As a filmmaker, you’re looking for gaps in cinematic culture, things that haven’t been done before. And what I saw is that all of this great mythological cinematic work that I had grown up with – Ray Harryhausen movies and other things – I’d never seen that done with the sort of weight and credibility that an A-budget and a big Hollywood, IMAX production could do.

I want this to be the most expensive Harryhausen movie ever made.
