El Gran Cabron
@SamuraiElf
I tweet cabron things because life and the truth most often is a cabron. Sobriety requires a level of disenchantment.


Germany's Chancellor Merz: Young people spend 4, 5, 6 hours on their screens — with considerable influence on their cognitive abilities. And not for the better.


Nolan se ha propuesto hacer la primera película de la historia del cine que solo será buena si la procesas con inteligencia artificial.

Nolan’s Odyssey Problem: Diversity Without Greeks Is Not Diversity greekcitytimes.com/2026/05/15/nol…



People who get mad at the existence of Black people in fantasy are always so funny to me. They'll start bringing up historical accuracy about medieval Europe in stories where Europe doesn't even exist.

So you all know you’re full of shit






The challenge with Nolan for The Odyssey wasn’t solved by “Troy” back in the mid-2000s. The problem is much deeper, and The Green Knight (2021) showed us why. The modern mind just doesn’t comprehend the true nature of “myth.” If you divide “material” and “spiritual,” you’ll miss it. If you try to make the story fit modern notions of “history” bound by scientism, you’ll miss it. If you ask “what’s ‘real’ here and what’s symbolic?” you’ll miss it. The Green Knight actually does a good job of making you feel how disorienting real myths are to the modern mind. But it’s hard to portray myth and make it a box office success.

Chiques, usar Troya como referente de adaptación fiel a la obra de Homero para desmontar La Odisea de Nolan no es el argumento tan ingenioso que creéis que es. Leed, informaos bien, y luego venís a rebatir. Buenas noches.

As someone who isn't bothered by The Odyssey casting. It's ridiculous how people in support of it are pretending as if those who are upset don't have a perfectly valid reason to be critical.



I have absolutely no problem with people saying that historical black figures of note should only be played by black actors. Why shouldn’t it be the same the other way round?

@GiancarloSopo If it’s based on a certain people such as the Greeks why would you switch the ethnicity to something ridiculous? It’s like making King Arthur a Japanese man - ridiculous and insulting.

nobody on EARTH cared one iota about the movie Troy for two decades until last week when it conveniently became an immortal classic




Because developing more energy-efficient GPUs is out of the question, right?

Wishful thinking has been a consistent approach - these articles were published 14 years apart. In Europe, it is widely believed that committing to such self-delusion is patriotic, while accepting reality is "pro-Russian".
