I been making fun of it in the chat for having no aura
Have you seen the Ancient Greek Brutalism?
Nolan glazers keep coping and saying the only people that hate it its the ones that want historical accuracy and are bringing up the soviet movie Alexander Nevsky as an example of good movies that dont follow historical accuracy
Except unlike Nolan's its actually has aura
They both lack color
How do you fuck up Greek columns so badly? Like, what was even the thought process behind this? "Eh, we don't need to actually carve any of this shit and make it look like a real place, everything is AI now so no one will care if it looks terrible."
Aaaaaaah, that's the point of 3D printers! They were supposed to usher in a glorious age of wild design potential and free makers from some of the hardest parts of large implementation!
It was only like a decade ago!
Please tell me where the first picture is from. I didnt see it in the trailer
Its leaked from an early screening
The tutonic barbarians most definitely wore silly war hats like what's depicted in Alexander Nevsky. That's the Genius of Eisenstein, he still follows closely to historic Realism but adds a beautiful coat of colorful paint to just make it POP
And the style and inaccuracies are in service of a real point. Some Teutons wear modified stahlhelms to drive home the point about historical continuity and that Germans are fucking losers. Eisenstein is always saying something
Nevsky was much more accurate, the russian helmets/shields are all archaeological, and even the teuton inaccuracies are less chronologically/thematically divorced from the source material.
the trojans in nolan are goth 5th century bce? greeks and the greeks are 3rd century bce? if you put this art direction in a film about the Boeotian War you'd be wrong and this film is supposed to be 1000 years before that
Akhilleus was an aura farmer, as was Odysseus for sure. They fought and killed people because they wanted their sick, beautiful armour. There's half a book of the Iliad that describes the armour of Akhilleus and all the pretty engravings it had. Agamemnon's Medusa shield is an incredible piece of work, commented on by all as Art. These myths were all about aura, and the lifeless blandness of Nolan is so sad to see.
This has to be a CGI placeholder. There's no way.
