The Odyssey (2026)

Darius: I know everyone's excited for doomsday, but to watch that trailer of CGI slop after this, just like, dude, I don't get it. Marvel, you have just as much of the same budget and resources as what are we doing here? Y'all.

Jordan: Cause even Marvel, you'd be like everything you CGI and Marvel, like everything. Like remember the white suits in Avengers Endgame? Those were CGI too. Like it's actually kind of crazy.

Darius: I'm just like, y'all ain't no indie shop. Y'all can afford this. Like what?

Jordan: Yeah, bro.

Darius: Just do it right.

Jordan: You have a wardrobe department.

Darius: You ******* have Disney money.

Jordan: Like it's like even like the captain. Hey everybody, welcome to Out the Trunk with Jordan and Darius. This is our movie review segment. My name is Jordan. That's Jordy B riding on all socials.

Darius: My name is Darius. That's D's. I love the area on also.

Jordan: And today we're going to be looking at and reviewing the movie of the summer, the great Christopher Nolan's instant classic, The Odyssey. This movie obviously was released this month, July 17, 2026, starring the great Matt Damon. We do like his apples paws. Tom Holland, Spider-Man, the lovely Anne Hathaway, the great Robert Pattinson slash Batman, Lupita Nyong'o, Chef's Kiss, Zendaya, Great MJ, Charlize Theron, and Samantha Morton. The Odysseys follows the brutal conclusion of the Trojan War. The wily Greek King Odysseus attempts to sail home to Ithaca, but after defying the gods, his journey becomes a harrowing decade-long psychological and physical gauntlet through treacherous seas, reality-warping entities and monsters. Meanwhile, back home, his wife Penelope and son Telemachus fight to hold on to their sanity and the throne against the vicious, parasitic swarm of noble suitors. So I'll talk to you to open up back in one.

Darius: Act one, the beach at Troy. We start off right into the grimy, exhausting aftermath of the Trojan War. The legendary wooden horse isn't a clean victory. It's A claustrophobic, traumatic deception that leaves Odysseus carrying an immense weight of guilt when he mocks the natural order of the world and the gods. His fleet is swept into the uncharted, unknown. Going to date the podcast because we're probably releasing this right away. This movie came out four days ago. How many times have you seen it?

Jordan: I've seen it twice.

Darius: Same.

Jordan: I watched it again last night.

Darius: How much better was the second viewing for you?

Jordan: I was going to say it definitely got better for sure. I think it's going to be one of those movies where it just gets better every time you watch it, honestly, like centers, like it's just going to be great every time. And yeah.

Darius: It's just once because the narrative structure can be a bit confusing, but once you know what's a flashback and what's present day and yeah, once you know the beats of the plot, I mean, the second time I left, leaving that theater, like, man, that's a masterpiece. Yeah, no, really.

Jordan: Yes.

Darius: First time I left and I was like, that's a really good movie. But yes. You know, did you see it in IMAX or was that regular?

Jordan: I saw it regular. I didn't, the IMAX was showing like 10, like 11 o'clock showing and the seats weren't good. I was gonna try to get another, get a ticket later this week or maybe next week.

Darius: I think I'm gonna see it in IMAX later this week, but it's. It really does make a difference because there's shots on the beach where when I saw a regular Thursday and then I saw it in IMAX Sunday and you don't get the scale of his army until you get those wide shots. And I mean, I don't know. I'm just kind of speaking in broken sentences right now, but it's.

Jordan: Yeah, I was yeah, I was talking to a friend from the bar at no spot Friday night about the movie and I was saying I kind of break it down to him like you got to see it in IMAX because I saw it in regular but I've seen the clips on socials of the IMAX screen I was like it's not like a zoom in it's just that the perspective been cut like the ratios been cut so like you know it's like I told him like for example like this is regular vision you know and then IMAX is the full right and so like it just Your face looks big if it's just this. But if you can see everything, your face doesn't look big. So it's kind of the way this, like you said, the way the scale is done in this movie. First of all, it's a great viewing experience.

Darius: Yes.

Jordan: Honestly, I think I'm going to buy the Blu-ray or the DVD when it comes out because I want to get all the special features and see all the behind the scenes stuff. But also, They deserve their money again for this movie. It was, it was, it was that great. I don't, I almost would feel like I'm robbing them if I bought it on sharing for six bucks. You know what I mean?

Darius: Once I go see the third time, third time is a given. We, this is one of, this might be a four or five one.

Jordan: **** *** **** *** bro.

Darius: But the third time, **** we'll be, I'll be at $100 in ticket sales. Yeah, I mean, 3 tickets. That's before I'd have bought popcorn and soda, but, and I don't, it's like, man, Okay, so let me just ground some of this. What I will say is like the first viewing, the cast is so famous, it's a little distracting.

Jordan: Yes.

Darius: And then the second viewing, you do start to see them as characters in a story. Because we were at a bar Saturday and we were talking about Tom Holland's performance. And I didn't really buy it, but I bought it on the second one. I was like, yeah, I'm not watching.

Jordan: Go ahead, go ahead. No, you go ahead. Yeah, like he was supposed to be the weak link. Like he wasn't supposed to be him with a capital H. You know what I'm saying? Like that was, I mean, I went to a bigger point later with this movie, but that was kind of his journey was he basically was Simba. You know, it's like the boy trying to be the king, you know? And so he had to grow into the role. Like even his clothes, like if he noticed his clothes were almost bigger on him at the beginning of the movie than at the end where he's wearing the armor and it fits and **** it's like tailored to him, you know? And plus, again, like you said, it is kind of hard to be like, okay, because you're like, okay, well, that's the Punisher. That's Spider-Man. That's MJ. That's the other Batman.

Darius: That's Matt ******* Damon.

Jordan: Right, that's Good Will Hunting. There's Catwoman in here. That's Jason Bourne.

Darius: Dr. Dre is in the corner. Right, I wrote that down.

Jordan: I wrote that down. Dr. Dre is in here.

Darius: He's good.

Jordan: He was really good. I need a buddy cop comedy with him and Robert Pattinson. Somebody needs to write that.

Darius: You know, you see this list of a bunch of famous people and you're like, did he just hit his Rolodex? Nah, man. Even though everyone is super duper famous, everyone was really well casted.

Jordan: Everyone was perfect.

Darius: I just down to Zendaya as Athena was just like a nice. Like, I didn't buy it at first. And then the second time you watch it and it's just like, because I didn't even really. I mean, I've read the Odyssey, but it was like 10th grade English class. That's ******* 25 years ago. I don't remember no ****.

Jordan: It's like, it's weird because we didn't read it in school.

Darius: Like I read the Giver in high school. Could I tell you one page of any action on the Giver? No, it's just, you know, back then you read to complete the assignment. And so I didn't know that when I'm watching it the first time, I didn't know that he's with Calypso. And that's the present time. And so I'm just like, can we fast forward to him talking to this white woman and get back to the one-eyed Cyclops? But the second time I'm settled in and I know what's going on and like, okay, I get this. And like, I could see her tricking him and making him forget his, it's just, people go see it a second time. The first time.

Jordan: Yeah, you have to see it multiple times.

Darius: The first time almost is just, it almost doesn't count.

Jordan: You knew it was great, but it was just like so much. You're kind of like, I literally like, I obviously can't take notes during the movie. And I was going to see it multiple times so we could give a good review. But I was like, oh, I'll make voice notes when I get home. And I was like, my voice notes, it's like me rambling for two minutes. And I'm just like, He was great. Travis Scott was great, man. And like also it was a perfect way to open the movie because like you need, it's an epic movie, you need an epic opening. And him being, you know, banging the stick and a man, a fleet, you know, whatever. I was a little nervous.

Darius: The first thing I saw was Travis Scott.

Jordan: I was scared. I was scared. I was scared. But you know what? Chris Nolan has only let me down twice.

Darius: Which 2?

Jordan: Yeah, I hated Memento. Tenet, it wasn't for me, but I really did not like Dunkirk. I'm not going to lie to you.

Darius: I love Dunkirk.

Jordan: I did, which wasn't for me. I'll have to give it another shot.

Darius: But so I have a folder on a hard drive with all of his movies. And I actually have copies of the Dark Knight series. And I just been, honestly, a three hour movie in a theater. This movie didn't really count because it's just that good. But I had to work my way up to like, it's almost like you got to get in game shape for that. So the week before, I was going to go see it Thursday. Monday, I watched Interstellar. Tuesday, I watched Deception. Those are 2 1/2 hour, 3 hour movies.

Jordan: Okay.

Darius: And so I just to train myself to sit through this and the rest, like my plan is now is to memento. No, we're going to skip. But I'm going to watch Ten and I'm watch Dunkirk. I'm going to watch Oppenheimer. I'm gonna watch the prestige and just go back to the class. Just go through the whole folder because.

Jordan: Yeah, I think I'm gonna do that too.

Darius: You know, I have a bold proclamation at the end of this pod.

Jordan: So Okay, so I actually started watching Interstellar last night. I'm halfway through, but I was like, I'll be dead for work if I finish this movie. So I had to cut it in half, but I feel you. So yeah, I and speaking to just people understand just how big this movie this movie is going to make a billion dollars like guaranteed I went online yesterday all day trying to get good tickets and I checked like the seven o'clock show I was like seven o'clock on Monday I'll have to do it to myself that **** was sold out like like go ahead yeah like I again I saw it last night and literally at the end of the movie people like applauded like so.

Darius: There's some self-selection here, because when I saw it in IMAX, I saw it Sunday morning at 11 A.m. And that was moviegoers. The people in there were serious business. And the woman who sat next to me, I swear to God, 3 hours, I didn't hear a sidebar conversation. I didn't see a cell phone light. Nobody really got, I mean, I'm certain someone got to use the bathroom. I just didn't notice. But no one that I saw got up to use the bathroom. It was just in a trance for three straight hours. And I can't remember the last time movie did that I mean I feel you um 3 hours and no one is distracted it's just we it was like we were in the middle of the woods watching a movie with no cell phone coverage like it was yeah yeah.

Jordan: I did uh I did go up get up to go to the bathroom uh the first time I saw it but I literally sprinted to the bathroom and sprinted back in like 90 seconds um I was like it's a boat scene they're going to an island I should be safe here.

Darius: When you get to see it in IMAX, it's almost like the IMAX turns off your bladder because you just do not want. It's so engrossing. It feels like you're on that boat in that sea, rocking back and forth. It is absolutely, it is an experience, man. And like I saw Oppenheimer in IMAX. It was cool. It was better, clearly. You know, I saw Project Hail Mary and IMAX. I've seen, I saw Interstellar and IMAX. This is just different. It feels like you're in his army, just like an extra in the army. Okay. Just, you're just there with them. It's nuts.

Jordan: Okay.

Darius: What else you got?

Jordan: Oh, I didn't get anything. I haven't actually what you said. So a friend hit me up, friend of the show, shout out to you. She hit me up before right for recording and was like, are you gonna go see it in 4D? And I was like, dude, I have to go see it in 4D, bro. Have you seen any clips of people like in the theaters with it?

Darius: I have not, no.

Jordan: They were like getting hit with water and ****. Like the seats are moving. It's like they're in the boat. I'm like, yeah, I gotta find a theater somewhere in the US to watch that movie in 4D.

Darius: There's A 70mm theater in Georgia. And I swear to God, if I could get a ticket, I'm going to six hours. Because What is life meant? Like, this is, this is a once, this is the one movie where it matters.

Jordan: Yeah, you got to go on an Odyssey to see the Odyssey.

Darius: One, if I can get a ticket on a weekend, what the hell else is I doing that weekend? Why not?

Jordan: True facts.

Darius: Yeah, like it's a far fetched because the tickets are sold out upon being sold out. But right, if I could, if I could score a 70 mm ticket, that's honest to God. It's worth the flight for me. If I could score a 70 mm ticket, I'm not mad at that, man.

Jordan: I'm not mad at that at all. Okay, so we talked about the, you mentioned the time jumps and it being non-linear. So I think for this movie, when it was really well done and two, I think it was actually really necessary.

Darius: Yeah.

Jordan: Because in that time period, there was no online, you know what I mean? Like, I mean, it's mythology, but you know, I'm saying like, they didn't have e-mail or text. They couldn't be like, yo, man, this happened. Yo, they're in the boat. Just saw XYZ happen, you know, or, oh, **** the horse got people in it, you know? So it would all be from hearsay, which means it would take longer to get to get around to everyone. So it kind of I did kind of like that because it would show everyone would be confused. No one would know what the **** is going on because like even the Game of Thrones are sending ravens. They're not even sending ravens and **** in the Odyssey. So everyone would be clueless and lost unless you're actually plotting some crazy ****.

Darius: Yeah. And also, you know, he had a heart out at three hours, which is fine. I'm totally fine with movies really shouldn't be longer than three hours. But the way it's narratively structured you can't really capture the passing of time telling Journey in present time it has to be through flashbacks with him regaining his memory talking to Calypska Calypso Calypso and yeah if you just showed him because he's with Calypso for seven years so to make that work it just wouldn't the first hour is the journey and then an hour with Calypso and then an hour and they just wouldn't it has to be told through flashbacks and normally I think it's a cheap trick but it's the only thing that worked you know?

Jordan: Yeah I agree yeah I think so too I just and he did it so well man like it's like the way Shout out to Christopher Nolan, just one of the all time greats. I said, I watched the water theater. I was like, Yeah, I think you might be the goat. Like, I was.

Darius: I was foreshadowing. He's to me, he is the greatest. Like, I don't think.

Jordan: Because he writes and directs, you know.

Darius: I. Who's I mean, I looked at that folder, man. This is before I had even seen the Odyssey and I was like, yeah, no one's touching this. Like, yeah, you know, it's tough. It's tough when you got. When the Dark Knight rises in the bottom tier, right? Like none of those. I mean, memento was bad, I would say. And the following almost doesn't even count because it was his first one. Yeah, but. There are like any and he he produced he drops every three years. And so it's not like. Yeah, and it's like to have this kind of quality dropping every three years. I mean, Oppenheimer was three years ago. And most people would drop in Oppenheimer and disappear for five, 6, 7 years.

Jordan: Five, 6 years.

Darius: He came right, I mean, he was writing this in 2024. He came right back.

Jordan: And I don't know if you watch any of the interviews for this movie yet or whatever, but the cast, like they've all talked about, they all said the same thing. Like, he kind of almost is a decent, like he's a great leader. They're like, he doesn't do anything that he's not willing to do himself. There's a scene in the movie where there's the head of Athena shaking. He's moving the head. He's like, it wasn't done right. He's like, I'll just do it because then I can get my vision out. You know, I think I remember there was an interview, Robert Downey Jr., he was like, when they were doing oppenheim, he was like, dude, do you ever go to the bathroom? Because they all were like, I've never seen him go to the bathroom. I've never seen him. He's always by the camera. He's always in the camera. And he was like, Nolan goes, yeah, he goes 11am, 6pm.

Darius: Yeah, Matt Damon said, though there's a scene, we're jumping around a little bit, but there's a scene where he has to tie himself to the mast of the boat. because the lady singing a song and it's so intoxicating. It makes you go to her. And he's like, he knows what an actor needs because he was like, we're going to shoot that today. And he says something. He says, we'll shoot, we'll shoot it till we like it, which is something, you know, you rarely hear from a director. Normally they just put a timestamp on things. We'll do three takes. We'll shoot it till we like it. And he's like, take an hour to get in the right headspace, because that's actually a difficult scene to shoot. Because he's like, the way he did it, he was on the boat by himself. And he's like, I have to scream with an IMAX camera in my face, tied to a boat and it can't look stupid. And he's like, it took me a long time to get into the right headspace for that. And he's just like, you know, that's a great boss, you know, putting people in the position to succeed. You know, the actors are the players, but like the coach has to call the plays. And you know, He's the greatest. He's my favorite coach, movie coach, director of all time.

Jordan: Mine too, man. Yeah, I watched that interview too. I saw a clip of him, Damon reversing that scene. He's like, yo, he told him, we're going to shoot your coverage first, right? Like you said, they had to take a ferry out to get to the boat to shoot. And he's like, so I took the ferry by myself. So I had an hour to just get my mind, get to go there mentally to shoot the scene. He's like, only a great director. It would take a great director to know that I needed that to shoot that scene, you know? Man, this movie's amazing. So, okay, so a big tenet of this movie, no pun intended, is Zeus's law, which is basically hospitality and treat others the way you want to be treated, which I really liked. And I really always love the idea of like, this is in other movies and fables and stuff too, of like treating people as though they may be God in disguise. You know, like if you think about like Beauty and the Beast. Like, that's kind of what happened in that story. You know, the prince was evil to a beggar. The beggar was a magician and turned him to the beast, you know, whatever. So like, I really thought that was a super dope way of framing it. And I love the way it just showed that theme stuck throughout the movie. You know, it wasn't just a quick little plot point. I mean, we'll talk about the monologue Odysseus gives later in Act three, but I thought that was some great world building.

Darius: I agree. The whole the whole movie is about what happens when you go against tradition and upset the natural order of things, you know. And so, yeah, you want to get into act two so we can actually get it to the meat of the movie.

Jordan: Yeah, I just got one more point for one. Because I love this quote, this line that Anne Hathaway said in the movie, or said in Act 1, the structure is nothing without people's respect for its meaning. I thought that line was ******* brilliant. One, I spoke to the political tone, undertone of today. And 2, just, you know, the fact, it reminded me a lot of the Game of Thrones monologue where Varys is given the riddle to Tyrion. And he's like, power resides where men believe it resides. It's a trick. It's a shadow on a wall. You know, and I just thought that was ******* brilliant writing.

Darius: I agree man um I wasn't crazy about a lot of the politics of Ithaca on my first watch mostly because everything else is just so much like just cooler more interesting the second one once you you know the action beats are coming you're kind of you're not in a rush to get back to them because you know they're coming you watch it and it's like to me that's some of the best stuff in the movie you know um just uh Penelope and Her interactions with the with her son. I forget his name. Telemachus. Yeah. And Antonius, I think his name is Robert Patterson.

Jordan: Yeah.

Darius: And so the politics of Ithaca is a bit of a drag on the first viewing, but on the second viewing, it definitely grabs you in a different way because you just you're not in a rush to get back to, you know.

Jordan: Yes.

Darius: The journey, which will start with Act 2, the hallucinatory gauntlet. The middle of the film plays out like a psychological survival thriller. Rather than campy creatures, the encounters with Polythemus, the Cyclops, the witch Circe and Calypso feel like fever dreams are manifestations of grief, hunger, and disorientation. At the same time, we cut back to Ithaca, where Penelope is trapped in a nonstop agonizing bacchanal of greedy suitors taking over her palace. The Cyclops was the coolest thing ever. And I have this thing and like sometimes when I don't know what to watch, I'll just pick like seeing some movies that I like. Me too. I will be watching that Cyclops movie, that Cyclops scene over and over and over and over and over.

Jordan: Yeah, that **** was dope.

Darius: That **** was hard. I didn't see it coming. And like, I didn't get it at first because I was like, wow, they just moved the boulder, but like the boulder is *******.

Jordan: They can't move the boulder.

Darius: Yeah, it's literally like trying to move.

Jordan: It's a skyscraper.

Darius: Yeah. And it just. I mean, I don't want this to just be us saying he's the goat over and over and over again.

Jordan: But man, it really might not even be up for discussion. I'm not going to hold you here. Like, bro, what? So yeah, it's a 60 foot puppet that they built. And then they had real sheep just living in the cave. Like they shot that sequence for two weeks. So they just lived in a cave for two weeks with sheep. So what they did was they actually had an actor, I believe his name was Bill Irwin, play the Cyclops also. So they shot him with like the blue screen suit and then they shot him in like a miniature cave so he could do all the voices and you know, all that stuff. Man, that **** was ******* brilliant, dog. Like I, when I, assumed that was CGI, like I was like, oh, that's obviously like CGI. They're looking at a tennis ball or whatever, you know, whatever. The fact that they built that **** dog,

Darius: I realize everybody ain't got his budget or his like freedom. But man, it makes it hard to watch CGI slop now because it's just like I feel like I was in that cave, man. And when he says, you know, why did he say something? He's like, do you talk to ants?

Jordan: Do you talk to ants?

Darius: That was my one kind of criticism. I have two criticisms of the movie, but my one was like it needed more humor. I thought that just something to break the tension in the room. I got it. Did you do you talk to Grace? I thought that was funny. And it was it was a nice little breather because it is. It's a tense. It's an intense movie. And it is, man. And it's just, you know, a couple of chuckles here and there would have been a nice little break. But that's my favorite scene of the movie. And that's the one I'll rewatch over and over and over again is a Cyclops.

Jordan: That scene was dope. That wasn't my favorite scene, but I did love that scene. And then even like where they were like, we got to, maybe we should go in groups of two because we lost two men.

Darius: Because that was like a deal. He's like, I guess he gets full after two.

Jordan: Yeah. What else do I have for this? Oh, I want to say they ****** *** the gods literally every chance they had. Like them dudes were dumb as hell. I mean, they were in a death situation, of course, I understand. But everything they were like, if you built a manual of what not to do on a long trek home, they could ride it.

Darius: And then he just shoots the arrow at the ******* thing.

Jordan: I was like, what are you doing?

Darius: He yells at his name so he knows that he's Poseidon. Thus he gets on the boat. Someone said, listen, about the second island, I'm gonna be like, look, I'm gonna wait till y'all get back to this boat. Every time we leave and go up somewhere, it goes way left. Because they get to the second island. And did you know that was like a bunch of seven foot tall actors?

Jordan: Yeah, I did. So yeah, so they had seven foot tall stuntmen for the Giants. And then they had like really, really short guys for the stunt doubles for the soldiers. And then I think they just shot it far back.

Darius: Where do you find 37 foot tall actors?

Jordan: No, dude, I have no idea.

Darius: Like, you know how rare 7 foot tall people are? And the ones that aren't in the NBA, like.

Jordan: Right. Where do you find these dudes? How do you cast that? I don't know.

Darius: I know everyone's excited for Doomsday, but to watch that trailer of CGI Slob after this. Just like. Like, dude, I don't get it. Marvel, you have just as much of the same budget and resources. What are we doing here? Y'all, I don't.

Jordan: I don't know, man. Cause even with Marvel, you'd be like everything you CGI in Marvel, like everything. Like remember the white suits in Avengers Endgame? Those were CGI too. Like it's actually kind of crazy.

Darius: I'm just like, y'all ain't no indie shop. Y'all can afford this. Like what?

Jordan: Just do it right. You have a wardrobe department.

Darius: You ******* have Disney money.

Jordan: Yeah, it's like even like the Captain America movie, the one with Sam Wilson, Anthony Mackie, it's shot in, they're in DC, right? You can tell that they did CGI and they CGI'd some ******* cherry blossom trees and ****. I'm like, just shoot outside, bro. Walk outside. I don't understand. That's also what made this movie great is they shot in like 7 different locations. They shot in Morocco, Iceland.

Darius: They were on a boat in the city.

Jordan: Italy. Yeah, they were. Yes, they were all in boat. The dolphins were real.

Darius: That was.

Jordan: That was not planned.

Darius: Yeah.

Jordan: Yes. Yeah, I think Matt Damon said that they were there was a day where it just like the waves were really, really ******. And guys who had been on the sea for two months just started puking and Crystal was like, Hey, do you mind if I shoot you? And that's in the movie.

Darius: Yeah, I read somewhere that it was like 80 something hours of footage that he had to cut down to three.

Jordan: I believe it.

Darius: And that might be, you know, considering you said they were in a cave for two weeks.

Jordan: Yeah.

Darius: Now, how much of that was footage he intended to use? Who knows? But I believe it because he's the one director where everyone's calendar is just clear. You don't have to worry about Tom Holland has a center. You know, we got to get through this because Matt has to be.

Jordan: They moved back to Spider-Man so they could make this movie.

Darius: Right. And if you look at what they took as pay, like most of them were taking clear pay cuts.

Jordan: Yeah, I saw, I saw, you saw their payments, bro. Yeah.

Darius: Now, granted, granted, none of them missed any meals. Matt David probably done a movie for 15 million in.

Jordan: 20 years.

Darius: A three hour epic where you're the lead. Epic. Yeah. He might have made that for his little cameo on Interstellar. Like, you know, like. Right.

Jordan: And he was just a voice actor for half the time.

Darius: Yeah. It's.

Jordan: Yeah, man.

Darius: They just did it off the love because this is when Christopher Noah calls you go, you know?

Jordan: Yes, correct. Absolutely. And they still brought their A-games. Matt Damon said, like any shoot or any day on this movie would have been the hardest day of any other day in my career. And this movie would have been harder than any movie ever in my career. But every day was the hardest day ever. But they were all in it together. You know, they were all like the crew was in it. The crew was in the boats, in the water and **** you know? They said it felt like an indie movie because everyone's all together. Everyone's all in on it. I think they said they shot the beach scene with the horse before they shot the coming out of the horse scene. And he asked Chris like, so how are we going to do it? He's like, I don't know. And he's like, so they just figured out. He's like, I think we're going to get in the horse and shoot.

Darius: What was I going to say? Shout out Elliot Page. We didn't have her on the cast, but she had a very small piece of the story, but it was a critical piece.

Jordan: Yeah, he was important.

Darius: The way they spliced it to where he dies in the, you don't see who's inside the horse at first, and then it comes back later and you see that they were all inside it, the Trojan horse. Me too, bro. Me too. Now I'm just putting these scenes in my head and I just want to see them again. Yeah. Normally when I see movies two or three times, there's stuff I wish I could just fast forward through in the theater.

Jordan: There's not a scene I would skip.
