Christopher Nolan’s six-minute Odyssey prologue is currently playing in IMAX theatres that are showing (choke, gag) Sinners and One Battle After Another. Well, there’s no effing way I’m paying $20something to catch Sinners again and I’ve already seen OBAA twice so eff that jazz. It’s being reported that the full prologue will be attached to Avatar: Fire and Ash 70mm IMAX screenings starting on Friday, 12.19. (I hate the idea of watching Cameron’s latest but I might submit.) Non-IMAX screenings will be getting a truncated version of the prologue. Nolan’s Odyssey flick pops on 7.17.26.
Will it be fair to call The Odyssey a sword-and-sandal flick? I’m asking. Swords, sandals, helmets, beards and loincloths.
