Summary

Jason and Rosie set sail on the Aegean Sea to review Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, They break down why the film hits as both timeless and completely of-the-moment, its full-runtime IMAX presentation with no aspect ratio changes, and the moments of "pure movie magic" that stuck with them. The episode closes with a full top-five ranking of Nolan's filmography — and The Odyssey takes the #1 spot for both hosts, unseating Rosie's longtime favorite (Tenet) and unexpectedly winning over Rosie, a self-described Nolan skeptic.
