Do people who are losing their absolute shit over Elliot Page being Achilles "just because of accuracy" know that in mythology Achilles was raised disguised as a girl among women to avoid going to war?...

Did you see the #Odyssey?
The scene where the Laestrygonians decimate the crew (3,000 yo spoiler) uses forced perspective to make "giants" (like how they made "hobbits" in #LotR)
2.1 m/ 7 foot men in the background, a 1.4 m/ 4 foot 6 inch woman in the foreground, a small aperture, et voila: giants
"Woman? You mean #MattDamon"
No
That's #DevynDalton, a Canadian stuntwoman, on the #movie's poster. Damon called her biceps "the greatest arms I have ever seen":

I have a feeling a lot of puppies are about to be named Argos. #Odyssey
Today's movie was The Odyssey (2026).
The Odyssey is a journey and quite an accomplishment as a film...visually. I went to a 70mm screening of The Odyssey, I haven't seen a movie in 70mm for a few decades -- it was quite an experience. I am glad that I saw it on the big screen in an analog format. I am happy to still have films that are made specifically to be seen on the big screen.
My full review is here.
Rated 8 out of 10.
