@TheMoronicDrake Im hoping he doesn’t phone it in to be funny like in Deadpool because that was clearly not supposed to be serious.
But I wish this wasn’t the casting choice made
funny to see people saying “the way Nolan interprets the Trojan Horse as a violation of Zeus’s law is not present in the original.” yeah, that’s what makes creative adaptations so exciting: an artist can consciously lean into a reinterpretation that feels resonant to their time.
@hzjoe03 Imagine a scene with a bunch of monsters eating people and throwing rocks right after a scene of one monster eating people and throwing rocks. This is why Nolan is a director and they are not.
@hzjoe03 Especially an adaptation of such an old story, that’s KNOWN for being changed from author to author.
If there’s ONE story in the world you can change in adaptation, it’s this one.
Hip hop carries on one of the oldest storytelling traditions. Before The Iliad and The Odyssey were written, rhapsodes performed them from memory using rhythm, repetition, and performance. Today's rappers use many of those same techniques to tell stories and preserve culture.
