Dude who hates Nolan’s adaptation of Homer not because it’s inaccurate or unfaithful but because he agrees with Plato that Homer is a corruptive influence on the youth.
Faithful adaptation or not. We begin the next round of people insisting the original text is bad bc it’s arguing the inherent cruelty of mankind when it’s like the most obvious “world war 2 traumatised our generation’s children beyond recognition” story of all time. ever
Honestly I'm tired of anti-Stratfordians. If they think the real Shakespeare had to be an aristocrat in order to understand court life, how do they explain all the working class & lower class characters, all the pimps, prostitutes, robbers, criminals, etc. in the plays?
this is the essential problem with the "blue/purple/green etc colored skin = people of color" metaphor in fantasy.... directors always put a white guy in the movie and the whole conceit falls apart
