Let him COOK

He's doing WHAT?

Announcing the next Nolan movie - a radical departure from his usual subject matter starring some of Hollywood's brightest stars - with a random tweet on Christmas week lol.

I think he is just in the part of his career where he can make just about anything he wants and will have full backing of the Studio and the general public. This is unbelievably awesome news. Such a departure from his last few films.

I am beyond excited about the possibility of Nolan doing a lavish fantasy-adventure.

With monsters!

I think The Lost Continent in IOA would be perfect for this.

Nolan's got the biggest blank check in cinema's history and is rolling with it.

This will be the replacement for Springfield. That way they keep Homer in the parks.

Did they have carts back then?

Would this be a single movie or a 2-3? Wikipedia references the story broken up in three parts:

Books 1–4: Telemachy—the story focuses on the perspective of Telemachus.
Books 9–12: Apologoi—Odysseus recalls his adventures for his Phaeacian hosts.
Book 22: Mnesterophonia ('slaughter of the suitors'; Mnesteres, 'suitors' + phónos, 'slaughter').

I'd be surprised if he did it all in one movie. A trilogy sounds nice and would make a neat collector's set once the last one comes out like the LOTR DVD sets.

If anyone else was curious about the new IMAX cameras as I was this article outlines it well: IMAX Next-Gen 65mm Film Cameras: All Details - Y.M.Cinema Magazine

Notably they'll be quieter (they sort of sound like a helicopter) and that means more directors may be willing to use them more often.

They announced it was a single movie.

What a stellar cast

Elliot Page and more join Christopher Nolan's 'The Odyssey'

Benny Safdie, Elliot Page and John Leguizamo have all joined the cast of Christopher Nolan's new film, The Odyssey, an adaptation of the Greek epic poem.

Love seeing Nolan reunite with Elliot Page

My God, he's making a big budget Harryhausen picture.

They are literally throwing money at this film. I love the ambition!

 

[docholiday]

As a film fan I’m so stoked. As a theme park fan I hope this movie does a billion plus. Also id love I stead of Nolan attaching himself to another franchise if he just did more mythology stuff.
