@MisterMoscle But leaving out the gods, the wind bag, saying the dialogue of tricking the cyclops wouldn't work, like nah bro nolan Is washed

@BlueRoseCloud I taught the Odyssey in high school so I'm pretty well versed in it and as far as adaptations go, he left in all the important stuff. I don't think the lotus eaters or the Phaecians would've contributed much to the movie and would've slowed down the pacing. He had to include Troy

The Odyssey is the best movie in like a decade lmao

@ItsNathanu @MisterMoscle Honestly yeah, but I dont know where you would do the cut

@BlueRoseCloud @MisterMoscle I mean tbf there’s only so much you can do in 3 hours. Maybe they could’ve split it into two parts

@CorenLaVolpe Yes

So fellas, was I right?

@17Jzip @PWC_3 @Krinios I mean, even the spongebob movie from 04 is a better telling of the odyssey then nolans film

@BlueRoseCloud @PWC_3 @Krinios So you like Troy more because the gods are slightly less hands on in the Iliad? You’re hilarious bruh. The odyssey is a much more faithful adaptation but you’re cherry-picking nonsense to be mad at lol

my bad yall ✌️

@17Jzip @PWC_3 @Krinios The nolansy still isn't a faithful adaptation.

@17Jzip @PWC_3 @Krinios Not once did I say they didn't play a big part in the illiad. Just putting words into my mouth to try and be right

@BlueRoseCloud @PWC_3 @Krinios Apollo’s plague isnt a big part you’re right. Same with the omission of Athena stopping Achilles from killing agenemnon. R u serious lol? Theres dozens of plot points that were changed in the Troy film to suit the choice of wanting the story to be based in reality without gods

@MJameson01 Is this a safe space to say the movie is buns

Good to know the whole internet liked Nolan's Odyssey more than I did lol

@ErenOnChain Although, if you enjoy Greek mythology you realise the movie fucking sucks

i saw the odyssey today, it was a 9 am show and it was completely sold out. and dare i say that the odyssey is one of the greatest movies ever made?? don't listen to the haters, this is an amazing movie and absolutely a must watch. nolan actually managed to bring the richness of homer's epic to the screen, if you've read the odyssey in any capacity you might know how it was considered nearly impossible to create a movie out of it. you don't need to be a greek enthusiast of any kind to understand the movie. it's surprisingly very clear with amazing exposition. i hardly saw anyone even take out their phones to even record or take a picture, everyone was so invested in the movie, and the cheers from the people during the final act?? it was crazy. this is literally one of the greatest poems ever penned in the form of cinema. go watch it and don't listen to these 'critics' who are trying to put down the movie as woke messaging because they cast a black woman as helen.

@17Jzip @PWC_3 @Krinios The gods envolvement play a big part into why it takes odysseus so long to get home. Thats why I care more

@BlueRoseCloud @PWC_3 @Krinios Why do you have no issue with the omission of the gods in Troy? Or are you just gonna ignore this reply too lol

@17Jzip @PWC_3 @Krinios Bsing by pointing out important parts that were left out or just weren't good. Sure, whatever. Akes you feel better

@BlueRoseCloud @PWC_3 @Krinios Good rebuttal man, ignore the fact that you’ve been BSing this whole convo cus ur poor feelings are hurt lol. I fucking love Wolfgang pedersons faithful adaptation of the Iliad that Ive definitely read too bro 😎.

@hzjoe03 When he hypes up something as important as the odyssey and then fucking butchers it, you can't just sit back and say respect the vision. When it was announced i was so fucking exited, but he changed too much.

When will people realise that an ADAPTION can be whatever the director envisions, and we should allow them to interpret and create whatever they want from a story, especially when the output is incredible

@17Jzip @PWC_3 @Krinios And here comes the slurs. The sign of someone who knows they aren't winning.

@BlueRoseCloud @PWC_3 @Krinios You typed a whole paragraph to say “the lack of gods and horse doesn’t look wooden enough for me”. BROTHER TROY 2004 DOESNT HAVE THE GODS IN THEM?? YOU ARE A RETARD

@17Jzip @PWC_3 @Krinios The horse, the lack of the council of gods, the lack of the gods, whatever the fuck the did to athena. Aeolus and the wind bag. All important, all missing

@BlueRoseCloud @PWC_3 @Krinios Your issue is the fact that the horse(which is literally made of wood lol, look at the set pictures) “doesn’t look like wood” true bro that def makes it a horrible adaptation 😭 you people arent real

@17Jzip @PWC_3 @Krinios The horse. Nolans trojan horse doesn't even look like it's made from wood

@BlueRoseCloud @PWC_3 @Krinios What about Troy makes it a more faithful adaptation? What parts of Troy really make it better than the odyssey? You have no issue with the omission of the gods from the 2004 movie lmao?

@17Jzip @PWC_3 @Krinios Not every adaption butchers it as much as nolan did though

@BlueRoseCloud @PWC_3 @Krinios Have you ever watched a movie you retard lmao? It’s Chris Nolan’s the odyssey, it’s genuinely nonsensical to expect hed turn the poem into a script without thematic changes. Every movie adaptation takes some liberties with the source material.

@17Jzip @PWC_3 @Krinios I've got and read multiple translations of each, including the translation nolan based it off.

@BlueRoseCloud @PWC_3 @Krinios You’re on your page talking about how Troy 2003 is a better adaptation 😭. Why are you pretending to have read the odyssey and Iliad man it’s embarrassing

@thanospv Nolan didn't make a good adaptation, if people enjoy the film good for them. But as an adaptation it sucks

@BlueRoseCloud If you have negative ball knowledge

The only correct ranking

@darkcooldude372 Lol, nah.

The Odyssey: 1000/10 Greatest movie I ever watched

@17Jzip @PWC_3 @Krinios In the actual odyssey, Hermes plays a crucial role. Omitting a crucial role is fucked. Not to mention how they handled athena.

@BlueRoseCloud @PWC_3 @Krinios It’s a movie thats less than 3 hours long aj the omission of Hermes’ kinda makes sense when you realize none of the gods or goddesses actually effect the narrative. Nolan let’s the audience decide if they’re really ruling over or if it’s just the faith of the characters
