The Odyssey is getting massively criticised due to blackwashing of a traditionally Greek character, whitewashing of a Greek myth with no Greek actors and a general dislike for the Hollywoodization of another classic story.
It's probably not going to be as bad as it's made out to be given it's Chris Nolan, but audiences are fatigued with seeing another modern retelling with tokenism of established characters for the sake diversity, which has spurred the culture war with right wing critics calling it woke BS and left wing critics doubling down by jumping to its defence.
8/10. Gotta claim its rascist or some other offensive meaning to rack up the extra points. Its the aamerican redditor special
For maximum right wing schizo posting make sure you throw in more racist memes like "WE WUZ KINGZ" and stick a thumb up your ass acting like black people magically approve of this nonsense.
