Instead, they dive into one of the busiest weeks in film fandom. Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey continues to dominate conversation, but should adaptations stay faithful to the source? The team discusses translator Emily Wilson's criticism and why myths are meant to evolve. Then it's time for the biggest Bollywood trailer of the year: Namit Malhotra's Ramayana. Is Ranbir Kapoor convincing as Ram? Does Yash's Ravana have enough complexity? And can a film rooted in Indian mythology truly connect with a global audience? They also react to Sunny Deol's Batwara 1947, discussing Partition cinema, changing political narratives and whether Rajkumar Santoshi can still deliver. Finally, Asim and Sujoy give their spoiler-free thoughts on Spider-Man: Brand New Day, with the full review available exclusively on Patreon.
