This is still the GOAT version of the odyssey Don’t @ me
>>221791233The only uncomfy part of thos film is when John Goodman shows up for his first scene.
Watch the Kirk Douglas adaptation.
>>221791287I dont want Kirk Douglas goddammit. I'm a George Clooney man.
>>221791233i'm gonna @ you to say that i agree with you, one of the best soundtracks of all time too
>>221791362I hate George Clooney as an actor but I must say he was really really good in this role.
>>221791233Honestly I must be rusty on the poem but I genuinely couldn't tell how this was an "adaptation", even in a loose senseThere are some obvious references, such as the suitor(s), the cyclops, the sirens and poseidon... But beyond that, it really didn't seem to have much to do with The odyssey
>>221792046>>noooo an adaptation has to be shot by shot
>>221792046allegedly they made the film without actually reading the odyssey and just pieced together whatever references to it they remembered
>>221791233It's pure, unadulterated kino
>>221791233>le whacky Coen adventure xD THIS is the pure Odyssey experience on screen.
>>221791362Fucking based.
>>221791233I don't think anyone disagrees.
>>221792408Your IQ is double digits.
>>221792046My favorite reference is also one of the subtler ones. Being back in prison is treated as “the underworld,” and when they see Pete on the road crew and again in the theater, it’s an allusion to the shades Odysseus encounters in Hades, specifically Elpenor and Agamemnon.
>>221792544>Italian movieWhy not just post a blacked dot com video while your at it.
>>221791233Never seen it. Never will
>>221792714And you have an extra chromosome to think I'm wrong.
Damn! We're in a tight spot!
>>221791233Nolan’s an idiot who thinks he’s smart. The Coens are smart guys who wish they were idiots.
>>221791362Apoclypse Now was better
>Creates the indie rock landfill

This movie is based and so is OP
for me it’s Ice Age because it’s an anti-odyssey bc the main characters’ discovery comes from finding someone else’s home
