Dad-gate, 3 a.m. screenings and impeccable Robert Pattinson memes: These are the 'Odyssey' debates worth having

The Odyssey is big in every sense of the word. It's expensive, long and, per writer-director Christopher Nolan's specifications, meant to be seen on the largest possible screen.

It's the first movie post-Oppenheimer Oscars sweep for Nolan, who's not cutting corners with the blank check he received. Thank the gods it's not all hype, either — I can confirm it's extremely good and is smashing box office competition like the Greeks did Troy. On the film-logging app Letterboxd, it became the fastest movie to reach 1 million views.

Something so epic demands attention, so it's no wonder that The Odyssey is also being endlessly talked about — the discourse about it started long before the movie was even out. What do you need to know? We'll walk you through what you need to know about the buzziest movie of the year thus far so you can survive any watercooler conversation, whether you've seen it or not.
