this looks retarded, while i don't like the nolan version either, i refuse to believe ancient soldiers wore this gay ass bronze shit into battle, this has to be ceremonial faggotry dreamed up by an acient homosexual theatre kid many many many years after the actual events
soldiers would be laughed off the battlefield wearing this stupid shit

It looks goofy because metal working was still in its infancy. You couldn’t forge complicated geometry or the metal would become brittle.

You are right however about soldiers not wearing it, as such a suit of armor would cost as much as an estate. Your average soldier would’ve went into battle with just a helmet and shield and leather armor if he was lucky.

But it's still fair game to imagine Odysseus wearing that kind of armor since he's the king of Ithaca. Even greek children's books depict them wearing bronze age armor
