Did the writers of Silo suddenly wake up in episode 5? It’s hilarious more shit happened in one episode of this show than 2 seasons combined!

@pratik I have no idea – it makes the 1980s doordarshan ramayan special effects look better.

Every Indian knows this epic at their core. It’s insane that the movie looks so terrible even when the core material is so rich – the film makers have a ready formula and yet 😑

Hollywood comes up with The Odyssey, meanwhile Bollywood comes up with this cartoonish looking b grade special effects retelling of our own epic, Ramayana, which purportedly cost twice the budget of The Odyssey to make, no kidding! https://youtu.be/1zip1rNaNYs

What a long frigging day and I barely slept 3-4 hours last night ugh.

Haha I am not the only one – quite a few threads on Reddit saying same thing: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheOdysseyMovie/s/MSnZQOsUee

@pratik We are spoilt with 2 imax theaters – both in Smithsonian museums so they are cheaper than other chain theaters AND absolutely no pre movie ads. When show says starts at 5:30, it starts!

@pratik Of today’s directors, Dennis Villenueve is the only one I think whose movies when they say imax, mean imax. Dune 2 was absolutely stunning on imax and I can’t imagine dune 3 being bad either in imax just looking at trailer. That man is a fucking genius in framing.

@pratik Yeah IMAX (true imax) tends to be usually darker and grainier to watch coz the screen is so big. We watched it in some 85x46ft screen. Bring in Hoytema he will make it even worse because he and Nolan love their cameras lol.
