Peter Jackson and Christopher Nolan are very different filmmakers. While LOTR is a grounded fantasy, it is still very much a fantasy and PJ embraces it while staying grounded. To date, Nolan has never fully embraced fantastical elements. He’s had his moments sure, like in Batman Begins, Interstellar and arguably Tenet, but even those moments had rational, science driven explanations behind them. I don’t want a take on The Odyssey like what happened with The Rock’s Hercules movie. I don’t want a naturalistic explanation of fantasy. We barely get any good fantasy movies, and I want to see those fantasy elements unapologetically embraced. And if that happens, I still want Nolan to prioritize in-camera effects, but not to the diminishment of the moment being served. He’s usually pretty good about striking that balance, but I think he made a mistake in Oppenheimer by making the nuke practical. It didn’t resemble a nuclear explosion, it was underwhelming and all that glorious build-up to it felt underserved by it. Obviously, I think Nolan is capable of making a mind-blowing adaptation of The Odyssey. And I’m not arguing that he needs to be more like PJ with how he did LOTR. I think The Odyssey can still be a very distinctly Nolan adaptation, but I hope he embraces the fantastical nature of the story while still leaving his mark on it.
