My favorite part of the movie, by far, was when
Spoiler: show
Odysseus mentions Sinon and Pattinson says, “I don’t know anyone by that name.” And then the other guy goes, “Wait a minute, you knew a guy named Sinon! The shepherd’s son, right? Right?” That was a laugh worth waiting two and a half hours for.

Sweet.

Name one thing you disliked now. And it can't be that you actually couldn't see the sirens' titties.

I heard they cast a chihuahua as the dog in The Odyssey? Is this true?

It is true, unfortunately. The most embarrassing moment of Christopher Nolan's career. He will be remembered as a weak man who bowed to a dying immoral agenda just to meet the woke rules required to win an Oscar.

People are coping by saying it's not a big deal because the chihuahua has very little screen time. But I don't care. It profanes the film with its presence. It offends me.

Looks like another hit for Nolan in both the box office and in reviews/audience reception.

Look forward to seeing it in the future.

To be fair, Burt is very easy to make fun of. But FJ is also hilarious.

Only Ensign and Lenny hated it. Burt will hate it without ever seeing it because he's a huge fucking loser with nothing going on.
