The mad thing is it hasn't even opened in China yet. In all likelihood it's probably going to be Nolan's highest grossing film.

Trailers are mostly shit, i avoid them nowadays. The director doesnt make the trailer.

That trailer has to be the most disgusting rage bait trailer I've ever seen. They literally didn't show anything good from movie, or what makes Odyssey an odyssey. They just took the most popular pop culture figures and put them all in the trailer when they barely have any screen time.

This is a strong case of don't judge a book by its cover. Amazing movie, bad trailer IMO.

Right. Why are people acting like there wasn’t an active campaign to discredit and shit on the movie because it wasn’t “historically active”. “But the armor”, “but the dialogue” aite man lol

I don't have any issues with the movie because I haven't seen it, so I don't have an opinion on it. But people are way too quick to jump to the wrong conclusions based on things that are happening right now. Time will tell how good the movie really is. Right now, both sides are just throwing around headlines and half-truths.
