Odysseus
Went to see this last night and despite the high expectations it still blew me away. Great film and highly recommended.
It is bloody loud though.

Re: Odysseus
I seen it last Tuesday and there was one scene in particular that was ridiculously loud at the cinema.
Thoroughly enjoyed it though.

Re: Odysseus
I find that with Nolan films...
Characters mumble, mumble, mumble... FUCKING LOUD MUSIC
Remember Anne Diamond!

Re: Odysseus
I'd quite like to see it having read a lot about how it focuses on something that was only a small part of the original (involves lotus flowers), some have gone a bit overboard on the PTSD interpretation and I expect I'll feel sorry for Cyclops
I really enjoyed Nolan's early stuff (Memento is worth digging out) and I thought his Batmans were
Also want to see Interstellar at some point, but given my abiding memory of the last couple of visits to the actual cinema are 'I wish I'd bought earplugs and I wish that
behind me wasn't giving a running commentary to his chum and I wish that
in front of me would put his
phone in his pocket' I think I'll just get a bigger TV and a better sound bar.

I’d love to have seen Interstellar at the cinema.

Nah, it's a compilation of Bill Oddie monologues on Springwatch.

Re: Odysseus
And if anyone wants to know what that's all about I'll plug Christopher Logue's 'War Music' book (and the ones that followed it) as an introduction. Cracking yarn...in verse.
