[Deadline] Christopher Nolan's "The Odyssey" runtime confirmed to be UNDER 3 hours per producer Emma Thomas

>Nolan opened his presentation onstage by saying he was just happy he didn’t have to follow Spielberg. At Nobu, I told him I was at a brunch Sunday with three well-known film veterans — an actress, a director and a film editor — who were lamenting the movies today. “Where is Lawrence of Arabia, where is The Bridge on the River Kwai?” they complained. I told Nolan after seeing the epic look of The Odyssey, I might have an answer for them. David Lean may be gone, but his spirit lives on with this kind of huge global moviemaking and star-studded cast that only a Christopher Nolan could possibly get greenlit these days. It opens on July 17, his lucky day where his Oscar-winning Oppenheimer, among other films of his, have also opened. We all know what happened to that*.*

>Producer Emma Thomas also guaranteed this epic film will come in under three hours, but wasn’t quite sure of the actual running time yet since they are still in post production.

Just caught up with Gantz:E after re-reading Gantz. Oku Hiroya remains GOATED

I won't mention any spoilers but Gantz:E is Hiroya once again writing some truly wild and unpredictable stuff that sets him apart from most manga authors.

I read the first chapter when it came out like 5+ years ago and decided to wait until there were more. I put it on the backburner and decided to read it this time after finishing my Gantz re-read. Now, it's obviously not on par with the original series, but Hiroya still managed to surprise me with his undpredictability, especially in the current mission as far as the English scanlations. Very few mangaka are pushing boundaries and coming up with unique experiences like Hiroya.
