THE ODYSSEY poster…

This is one of the many posters of THE ODYSSEY (2026). I’ve already stated that I have little interest in seeing it but this poster really makes me wonder what they’re selling. It’s obvious OscarĀ© bait, in regards to the casting, but this poster makes it look like a Marvel release. People will like it because people are starving to watch anything at the movies but in hindsight, they’ll regret liking it. It’s always the same thing these days.

It reminds me of the elaborate poster campaign for IMMORTAL (2011), which was the complete opposite of what people saw in the final film.

How did PEPLUM movies got away with these scenes…

With PEPLUM movies, HD is revealing things that were not clearly visible in low resolution copies. Take this odd scene in VULCAN – SON OF JUPITER (1962), Bella Cortez, as Aetna, is unaware of the man and his fingers down there. In the old prints, it was hard to see what he was doing (top image) but now with a clearer HD print (bottom image), we see what’s going on.

Again, how did PEPLUM movies got away with these scenes?
