  • this is not an alt

    Nolan took a very personal emotional poem about a man's yearning for return, stripped it of its core mechanics (the intrigues, the dialogue the driving forces) added CGI by the bucketload + a Viking Ship from the 11th century AD and called it a day.

    If I had to draw an a***ogy it's like Murder on the Orient Express with Albert Finney as Poirot vs Ken Branagh's Murder on the Orient Express.

    One stays faithful to the source material and pays an homage to Agatha Christie's work with Albert Finney being the golden standard as Poirot (till David Suchet came to the scene who lived in the part for a quarter century). In fact Christie actually endorsed the film (she was very critical of film adaptations of her work) but jested that the mustache was not glorious enough.

    The other is an uber engineered wide lense film with helicopter shots where Branagh is butchering Poirot's character.... with a budget of about 90mn most of it going to CGI and green screens.

    One is about characters and texture, the other is about CGI and architecture. Ditto Homer's The Odyssey vs Nolan's The Travesty.

    So I will be skipping this.... Perhaps I will give it a watch on streaming services if I have 30 mins to kill and there's nothing better to do.

    Staying the night at the Grand Canyon for IMAX.
    Debut is today for The Odyssey, they rarely play films other than the Grand Canyon IMAX film, so this was a surprise.
    I watched the Grand Canyon movie to check it out just now, it's f***ing huge.

    And I've heard that this is second best screen in all of Arizona, it will be 100% percent ratio, I'm surprised they didn't sell that much, told me they still have hundreds of seats left for today. I thought people would travel for it, but I live fairly close to it so no biggie.

    It's raining like crazy, but still going to see the Grand Canyon before Odyssey starts.
