Just saw the Odyssey today. Feel like I got scammed by amerimutts.


I can do a better job than this reddit tier fanfiction. Not even kidding, I genuinely believe I can make a better job adapting the Odyssey than Nolan and it will be more respectful to the original work and to Hellenic culture and religion

The fact is it difficult for people with modern values to ever relate to the actual epic
It always has to be sanitized in some way before it can be presented to an audience

For example Odysseus was directly or indirectly responsible for the killing of Andromache's infant son. (Hector's child)
Apparently they took the infant child high up some structure and dropped the child from there
Will they ever show that and sully the great 'hero'

They were cruel soulless barbarians by today's standards

>>24840005
That's the nature of these stories. It is the characters being grey is what makes them great.

I also believe that initially the mahabharata was a much more grey epic before we made it more religious and eulogised the pandavas

>>24840000
The ratings were astroturfed, then people were too scared to vote it down after it hit traction

of course it's a steaming pile, just look at the casting. Dyke Tyson even.

But /pol/ told me Jeets love Nolanslop.
They lied to me again

Ok here is brief 20 minute part exposing the truth about Karna
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_C2UKzK1UMQ
Cant find any that is shorter

>>24840000
lol
>>
>>24840013
Nolan has directed some great movies
Inception
The Dark Knight
>>
>>24840014
Not everyone criticising Pandavas likes Karna. Again, things might have been altered layer.

Oops sorry man. Posted wrong link
And you are right. Pandavas were no saints

>>24840000
you seeing it at all makes you a moron
>>
>>24840019
The biggest reason I doubt karna originally was not as evil as depicted is because Karna and Arjuna's elaborate rivalry is clearly a retelling of the Vedic Indra and Surya's rivalry, with Surya being rejected by his mother Ratri but being adopted by Usha, his adoptive mother.


But Surya in the Vedas is a positive character, a Deva even
>>
>>24840000
Agreed. Starting skipping about 1/3rd the way through, it was boring.
>>
>>24840020
I haven't seen it yet But someday when it comes on OTT platforms
I will go have a look only to find out what made so many people watch
That it earned more than a billion dollars at the box office

Just curiosity

>>24840021
Interesting

>>24840016
BTW, try The Return(2024) by Uberto Pasolini it features the end of the Odyssey plotline. Kinda faithful adaptation , it's watchable, despite it is also contains niggers.

That's the great thing about belief. You can believe it all day long and never have to find out you're wrong cos you won't do it.

Do it or stfu you smelly Indian curry muncher.
