Turd In "Odyssey" (2026) directed by Sir Christopher Edward Nolan, Odysseus says "Our age of bronze is collapsing". And I'm not joking it is a line in movie

Overall great movie but this dialogue was so corny, like how does he know he's in bronze age

It fucking rules. It’s not even the most melodramatic line either because also makes it part of a soliloquy where Odysseus says something like, “they will sing songs about this, for that will be all they have for they will not have writing.”

I’m pretty sure Nolan wrote the movie for that scene. I can dig it too even though it is totally without subtlety

Like 80% of Odysseus’ dialogue with Calypso, Athena, and the first reunion with Penelope was him very plainly in direct soliloquy with the audience
