>opens with a standard old guy narrating epic-movie style>muses interrupt the narrator and break the fourth wall to tell him to stop being boring>bursts out into contemporary song and dance>its goodsubversion is good, everyone who says otherwise is wrongnobody wants to see "le great greek hero prlogue" done straight
Reminder that the muses had every right to be that good and even the narrator was okay with it
>>154171515Shut up, contrarian faggot
>>154171515People like subversion when they are still given something good
>>154171562>People like subversionthats all we needed to hearsubversion good
>>154171563You should know that with any story telling device there's a right and wrong way to execute it?
>>154171563Fuck off, you predditor
>>154171607>things are good when they are good, bad when they are badnice tautology
>>154171614It’s smarter than whatever you’ll say
>>154171515The muses still had to get the a-okay from Moses though
>>154171648Fuck off
>>154171515gospel truth doesn't do anything for me even though I really like the idea behind it, the other muse songs are great though
>>154171515Which Muse attracted you guys the most? I was partial to the really poofy long haired one, Melpomene.
>>154171694the big one
>>154171515>nobody wants to see "le great greek hero prlogue" done straightAeschylus wept
>>154171515>nobody wants to see "le great greek hero prlogue" done straightWell I wouldn’t call all of the classic mythology autists out there “nobody,”* but, yes, they are a niche audience, and normal mass market appeal will sell better.*although many of them would love to be called Nobody just to make the Odyssey reference
>>154171648Well, when you wake up in the Underground, tell 'em about the amount of times you ban-evade and the amount of times "highly satanic" is said through a Desu page. https://desuarchive.org/co/search/text/highly%20satanic/
>>154171694as much as the people get mad at, or pretend to get mad at, the mythological inaccuracies and the purely aesthetic greek settingit isnt like they dont set up the tone of the movie in the first songby interrupting the narrator and injecting 20th century american gospel-style music, they establish very early on that accuracy is not the goal
>>154171699Aye Thalia had a fun personality, plus gotta love a girl with volume.
>>154171728While I do thoroughly agree, that doesn't answer which muse you are most attracted to.
>>154171694>>154171827Post a chart.
>>154171515hercules was a good movie yes
>>154171515Was it really a subversion?the actual Greek plays the ancient Greeks did would break the 4th wall all the time.
>>154171834
>Her is Hera's sonKevin Sorbo's show was telling me something else
>>154171878Ok divs on Terpsichore.
>>154172018*dibs
>>154171878>>154172018I'm having Thalia
>>154171515Woman, black guy. Get in here.
>>154172018>>154172129Already said mine, the hairstyle really gets me going even if not much of a drama fan.
>>154171515>>154171563>subversion goodNot always. I'd say that usually not, actually. Subversion of expectations can very easily lead to frustration if not done right.Most people can't write something subversive AND good. They try to 'break the paradigms' yadda yadda, but they give nothing in return.Then when people complain, they say 'oh its my artistic vision, you uncultured swine', when people have no obligation of liking shitty subversions.
>>154172214>Subversion of expectations can very easily lead to frustration if not done right.>when something is good, its goodyou never hear this from anti-subversion turbo virgins
>>154172317Why so salty?
>>154171813>muse of comedy>looney tunes sound effects playing everytime you slam her
>>154172819>Thrust into her ass>The ass slap noises are Tom and Jerry smack sound effectsI think I would laugh to hard to be able to ejaculate lol
>>154171971well yeah but that show was homobait for extremely gay young men
>>154173857No

>>154171878I like how when the show had a dance episode, the muse of dance went "WAIT WAIT THATS MY AREA" and went to interact with Hercules
>>154171728I never understood why this movie got so much shit for not being accurate to the myths when the myths weren't exactly known for consistency to begin with.Ive noticed more and more that anything Greek tends to get shit on for seemingly no good reason. Same to a slightly lesser extent of Roman and Scandinavian stuff.Can't help but wonder if there is a connection.
>>154172317>waaah waaaahIts allies that I hear, so I shall talk past you.Writing subversion is harder than playing straight because you have to offer something better than playing straight. Most can't do that. To not mention they retards that think that subversion by itself is better than playing straight or that think that tropes are "outdated" and NEED to be subverted.
>>154171878Suddenly the "Every vase" jokes makes a lot more sense and is even more funny
>>154171860Yes because Ancient Greek meta writing is very different from modern American meta writing and their plays contained no influence from modern American pop culture. The subversion is that you expect them to take the setting seriously, but actually they don't because entertaining kids with what's hip and recognizable is the safer option. Anime took off in the west in part because even entry level commercial shlock like Pokémon would actually care about crafting an earnest fantasy world for kids to get invested in.
You play Dreamlight Valley too, anon?
>>154171515HONEY, YOU MEAN HUNKULES
Stop arguing about subversions and talk about the hot Muses>>154171878Call me a basic bitch but I like Calliope the most.
>>154175992Nothing wrong with liking the main girl, she has presence, great singing and beautiful body language.
AND THEN ALONG CAME ZEUS
>>154174047I'm sorry, who the hell watches Starship Troopers and thinks the bugs are meant to represent brown people? Like they are very much the lesser evil but they are still presented in the film as violent and intelligent threats even if they are probably innocent of the meteor destroying Buenos Aires, the Federation is an utterly deranged society that's wasting lives continuing the war since the bugs live across the other side of the galaxy in their own territory not invading remotely.
>>154171515>its goodLmao
>>154171715>>154171668This troll is not a Christian; it's a false flag operation set up by a transvestite.
>>154173952ptolomaic hands typed this post
>>154176627Maybe
>>154176440Yes
>>154174043Like how Aphrodite has three different origin stories. And those are the ones that survived today. I'm sure back in the era if you were to go to each village they would all give you a different answer.I think being popular = more likely people will shit on it. Also I would argue that Greek mythology is still one of the most popular of mythologies. If you were to show a picture of a snake haired lady most people would identify it as Medusa.
>>154171878Clio’s still left. Anyone want Clio? Should we ask /his/ if they want her?
