In my historically accurate film of the Odyssey, stunt doubles for men will all be biological men! To make sure I will do genital exams, chromosomes! Also no Low T men on the set!!! /Sarcasm #musk #trans #odyssey https://www.theguardian.com/film/2026/aug/02/matt-damon-stunt-double-the-odyssey-devyn-dalton

So I was doing my almost daily cycle down to #Oslo centre and while on top of the #Operahuset what do I see out of the corner of my vision but @th@social.v.st's ship (OK it is not actually his personally but he is a crew member, so I consider it sort of his as well). For those that do not recognise it, it's the #Draken, famous for a few reasons but most recently it stars in The #Odyssey (2026). #UnicycleLife

The #Odyssey Film Review: An Uncomplicated Man by Emily Wilson “Christopher Nolan, who studied English at University College London – where students still study The Odyssey as a first year ‘foundational text’ – is doing his best to get the general public reading again, and I am grateful. But…” https://www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v48/n14/emily-wilson/an-uncomplicated-man

Bronze Age Greece had a robust trading economy. Sea routes were (obviously) favored over land routes. https://www.worldhistory.org/article/115/trade-in-ancient-greece/ Interesting stuff, this. We seldom think about ancient economies, rather viewing things through our modern lens. Often, we're mistaken. #Odyssey #HomericGreece #BronzeAgeTrade

Did you see the #Odyssey? The scene where the Laestrygonians decimate the crew (3,000 yo spoiler) uses forced perspective to make "giants" (like how they made "hobbits" in #LotR) 2.1 m/ 7 foot men in the background, a 1.4 m/ 4 foot 6 inch woman in the foreground, a small aperture, et voila: giants "Woman? You mean #MattDamon" No That's #DevynDalton, a Canadian stuntwoman, on the #movie's poster. Damon called her biceps "the greatest arms I have ever seen": https://youtu.be/HENeMPc8Qwc #cinema

#Moth #Moths #Iowa I’m going to jump on the #Odyssey bandwagon (even though I might never see the movie…) This handsome moth is called “Antheraea polyphemus” and is named for Polyphemus, the Cyclops from Homer’s Odyssey. It’s all about the eyes! (My son took the photo yesterday outside of his workplace in central Iowa.)

About to go see the #Odyssey. I'm not going in expecting any kind of homage to Homer. This is cinematic extravaganza. I wanna see some beautiful wide-shot scenes, and hopefully enjoy a very fluffy version of the story, which I did read in its entirety, but a very long time ago. Heading in to the only IMAX theater within an hour of me.

The Guardian has been pushing the hype of Nolan’s Odyssey that they’re completely SHOCKED that a woman would dare criticize it in a respected magazine. https://www.theguardian.com/film/2026/jul/27/odyssey-translator-emily-wilson-attacks-nolan-blockbuster #odyssey #nolan #movies

There's been a lot of buzz around the new film #Odyssey for a while as cast members were announced... Anne Hathaway, Elliot Paige, Matt Damon, Zendaya. Yeah, yeah. Okay, sounds good. Whatever. The best film based on the Odyssey will always be O' Brother Where Art Thou. Fight me. Here are The Sirens luring weary travelers on life's oceans to their doom. https://youtu.be/_dl2L4v6ecM

To say it was an odyssey would be fair! When Roman historians go to see ancient Greece on film, we have opinions for sure. Did we enjoy the Agamemnon-Darth Vader cross over? Yes. Were we impressed with Odysseus’ complete lack of charisma? No. Would Nolan benefit from having a co-writer who was a woman? Double yes. #AncientGreece #Odyssey

#ThreeGoodThings Hover or focus to reveal Sensitive
  1. We watched a new #Odyssey movie and it was quite fun. Even though it was a bit "americanized"/"USAnized" at some moments.
  2. I am slowly enjoying my time with #PowerwashSimulator.
  3. We bough train tickets for tomorrow for the two last "side-by-side" seats. #ThreeGoodThings

And a photo of me on the steering oar of the Draken as we sailed away from the #Odyssey and back to Norway.

The #Odyssey behind the scenes photos are still under NDA, so please enjoy these post-filming photos of sailing Draken back to Norway.

Leute, die sich die #Odyssey von #Nolan nicht in 70mm #IMAX und nicht in alt-griechischer Synchro anschauen, kann ich nicht ernst nehmen!
