Looking forward to this, but that trailer makes it look uninspiring and dull.

A chunk of it filmed in Scotland. Matt Damon spotted in various restaurants and such like.

There was a couple of minutes from Odyssey before Avatar, it looked really good.

I look forward to watching in this in the format most of Nolan's films get watched... in 10 second snips in portrait mode on a phone!... just the way he wants it smile

Joking aside, does look like being a decent epic of the type nobody else seems to be making these days.

I was lucky enough to see the trailer in front of Avatar at the weekend on the big screen, looks incredible. That bit where we glimpse the Cyclops entering the cave... knowing Nolan he's probably resurrected a real one rofl

I don’t think Odysseus liked his Mrs much, or at least wasn’t in any rush to back to her, 10 years to get from Troy(Hisarlik, Turkey) to Ithaca, he’s havin’ a laugh isn’t he? I just punched Hisarlik-Ithaca by foot into Google maps…including a ferry ride or two, 98 hours! Now I’m sure dealing with Cyclops and a few other issues slowed him down but still.

Not another one. He's quite prolific. Still amazed people say his Dunkirk was one of the greatest war films ever.
I think people just like to fit into the herd.

The original 1958 was great. Added advantage of cast and extras that had experienced WW2.
Not Nolan and his travelling band of luvvies lol.

Dunkirk was just ... weird. Came across as very surreal. Some nice cinematography though and you certainly couldn't accuse it of being a formulaic war movie.

That reminds me I'll have to see if Jason and the Argonauts is on this Christmas.
