Finally! The sequel to Troy we’ve all been waiting for…

They should make it take 10 years to release the last one so that all of the actors can realistically age along with the story

Well I guess Christian Bale will be in it then.

Hmm... If the dialogue is in the original Greek, we'll probably get subtitles, which would help a lot with Nolan's increasingly muddled sound mixes. I miss being able to understand what the characters in his films say. Here's hoping.

Nah, it will be in Greek and he will make the artistic choice to drown it out with music because you don't need to understand it anyway.

Music doesn't drown out subtitles.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

subtitles will rapidly change between the spoken dialogue and descriptions of the music.

he'll make the captions like 4pt font size to convey that experience /s

I'll watch it but he's got a lot of work to do if he wants to do better than O Brother Where Art Thou.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago

Shouldn't he do The Illiad first?
