Hey everyone!

I hope you're having a lovely Monday! Have any of you seen The Odyssey by Christopher Nolan? I keep seeing people talk about it, and I'd love to hear your spoiler free thoughts!

This week is going to be so much fun! I'm finally watching the original Superman (1978). Also, X-Men '97 Season 2 is out on Disney+! The whole season hasn't dropped yet, so we'll all be guessing the ending together. You guys voted and the latest poll winner was Moneyball! I absolutely love an inspiring sports movie, so I'm really excited for that one.

For YouTube early access reactions, The Sheep Detective is finally dropping! 🎉 A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and Moon Knight are also headed your way.

Have you heard about the new show Ride or Die? It stars Hannah Waddingham from Ted Lasso alongside Octavia Spencer. It's been getting rave reviews and is a comedic murder mystery with a spy twist. I love a good murder mystery and I'm dying to watch it...pun intended!

And in just a few more days, the new Spider-Man movie hits theaters! I saw the trailer when I went to see The Devil Wears Prada 2, and it looks INCREDIBLE! I'll be watching it with you all as soon as I can, but if you're heading to the theater this weekend, I hope you have an amazing time!

Have a fantastic week! ❤️

I’m happy about Superman not so happy about Moneyball I think Bull Durham it’s more entertaining.

Hi there! Great picks for the upcoming week. I saw The Odyssey two nights ago. Christopher Nolan is my favorite director. I give it a B in a non plus or minus system. Absolutely nothing wrong with it, but I wouldn’t rave about it.

I’m soooo behind in Marvel since never watching my favorite hero’s show 😫 so I haven’t even seen the Spidey trailer. Although I still have a prediction about Sadie Sink that I have yet to hear anyone else make. 🧐🤔 Maybe I should post it?

The Odyssey is the loudest movie I've ever heard and it's loud for most of the movie. My Apple Watch kept giving me loud environment alerts! It gave me a headache and honestly ruined the experience for me. But I appear to be in the minority, as everyone seems to love it. FYI, the movie is legitimately pretty terrifying. I’ve heard great things about Ride or Die. Will you be reacting to it?

Ed Scoglio

Excited to see the original Superman with you Jax! Never seen Moneyball so that will be interesting!

If you want to watch Ride or Die for the channel, you should. With that cast and premise, I think you'll get some interest. I look forward to Superman because I've got a soft spot for Christopher Reeves and the first film. It has a lot of charm. Possibly harsh but honest Odysseus review. All IMO, obviously: I’m a big Nolan fan, but The Odyssey is the first of his films to disappoint me. It isn’t bad - the production design, cinematography, and epic scale are excellent, and probably worth seeing in a theate - but the adaptation feels very thin (too thin). Odysseus should be complex: brilliant, arrogant, caring, and deeply flawed. The film tells us some of this but never *shows* it, leaving him (and the supporting characters who suffer similar treatment) emotionally flat. The story hits the major beats without enough nuance, setup, or connective tissue, which IMO loses the audience (emotionally) and results in some narrative problems. Visually spectacular, but narratively underdeveloped. For me, it lands in the lower half of Nolan’s filmography.

I have been watching Ride or Die, it's predominately a spy/thriller/comedy with murder mystery elements. It is a fun time, I have been thoroughly enjoying it.

Thank you for the movie review! That was very well thought out and it sounds like a fair assessment. Nolan always shines in creating a visually beautiful film.

I'm so sorry it was too loud for you! What a shame. The last time I saw a movie in a theater I brought earplugs for that very reason. Since Ride or Die is a short show, I might check it out! It looks like it could be a lot of fun!

Mike Smith

I want to see The Odyssey again with earplugs to see if my opinion changes. I have a funny story about earplugs. My mom wears earplugs to the movies and we went to see Young Washington over 4th of July weekend (great movie btw!). She left her earplugs in the car and I went to go get them. The rest of my family went to our seats but someone else came up to them and said they had the same seats. I had the tickets on my phone, so my family gave them up. Turns out the movie theater double booked those seats! When I came back I unfortunately had to get a manager involved. The other people refused to give up their seats (I don't blame them), but we did get our seats re-assigned and got free vouchers to see another movie with free popcorns. It ended up being a win-win-win.

Hey Jax, I love most of Nolan's works, I also love Matt Damon and most of the actors in it, I was very disappointed, especially after seeing the rave reviews. It's not a bad movie per se, it's often visually stunning, I loved some parts of it, but overall it's a very mid movie. Except for Robert Pattinson who really brings his A game, most of the acting is formulaic and shallow. As an adaptation, it's terrible it strips most of the characters of their complexity, I don't think Nolan was the right director for it, Villeneuve probably would have done it more justice. Then again I've loved Greek myths since I was a child, read the Iliad and the Odyssey multiple time, by multiple translators and in different languages so the fact it not only strays from the poems, but misunderstand what the tale is saying really ruined my enjoyment thinking about what could have been if given more reverence. Someone who only has passing knowledge about the texts or doesn't really care will probably enjoy it much more. My opinion is very biased because of my love of the original, you should watch it yourself and go in not expecting a masterpiece and I'm sure you'll find plenty to love about it.

I absolutely loved the odyssey! I think it's my favorite of his films. I've been wanting to rewatch it in 70mm imax unfortunately it's been sold out since its been released. I think you'll really like the film. Every actor brings his a game. It truly is an epic. I can't wait for you to watch superman! Christopher Reeve is one my favorite supermen along with David Corenswet (superman 2025) and Tyler Hoechlin (superman & lois 2021-2024). I think those actors nailed the character. I wished you seen the 1978 one first but better late than never lol xmen 97 season 2 is really good so far!

Armando Castillo

Respectfully disagree. I think people always feel his films sometimes feel cold. In this I felt all the emotions in this film. I'll admit the poem isn't my go to books lol but I enjoyed Greek mythology. So I ate this up. Personally my weakest film is Dunkirk but that also isn't even a bad film. I just love the themes and the acting. Films like this and sinners are the reason I love going to the theaters. I get it tho if you're a big fan of the original source it won't capture everything but this is why it's an adaptation. The original still exists. There's big moments where I teared up no spoilers but definitely didn't feel it was flat.

Kal

Which is totally fine, I did say that my opinion was biased, and that people should go and see for themselves. If other people love it, I'm honestly happy for them.

Kal

If it's related to a certain color, you're not alone 😁

Reacts With Jax

I hope you're able to see it in theaters again! It's nice to hear that theaters are getting sold out. I'm looking forward to seeing it!

Phillip Arthur

I'm so excited you're watching X-Men' 97 season 2 I've seen the first few episodes and they were amazing Jax, can't wait for you to witness what happens!!!
