The Odyssey
Episode 19
Monday, 27 July, 2026

This week, Jon Negroni and Will Ashton dive headfirst into Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey! We unpack why it's so quickly become the theatrical event of the year and what its massive box office success says about the future of blockbuster filmmaking. Then we discuss Nolan’s evolution from The Dark Knight through Oppenheimer and why audiences continue to show up for original event movies. Plus, does The Odyssey represent a turning point for studios chasing spectacle instead of disposable content? We also kick things off by examining the summer box office so far. Including Toy Story 5, Backrooms, Obsession, Supergirl, The Mandalorian & Grogu, and more. And longtime listeners will certainly hear a couple of familiar voices at the very beginning of the episode...
