As a massive Nolan fan, I'm obviously biased on this point but I'm very excited about this film and this trailer looks fantastic. I'm a huge Greek mythology buff and I'm thrilled to see Nolan tackling one of its greatest adventures.

...and that's before getting to the incredible cast Nolan has amassed for the film.
 
I've been looking forward to this for over a year now. Looks like the movie will contain some backstory from The Iliad and Aenid as well. Who would have thought non-religious literary works two thousand years old would become bestsellers in the 21st century.

Because those stories are epic as fuck and have influenced western culture deeply. When one starts reading greek mythology it feels like someone hitting you over the head with terms and names that we use today for events or locations and all have their roots in that mythology and you never really thought about the origins of these words or their roots.

And if there's one director who's still able to film epic sagas it's Nolan. I'm very curious about that movie, since i love Nolan for his original stories and apart from the few historic movies like Dunkirk and Oppenheimer he always was extremely creatives when he wrote the story from scratch. Let's what he does with such a massive and influential story like the Odyssey.
