What do you MEAN Nolan didn't include the "My name is Nobody" scene.

One of the CENTRAL PIECES, WHERE ODYSSEUS' CLEVERNESS SAVES HIM AND HIS ARROGANCE AND HUBRIS DAMN HIM HOW DO YOU ADAPT THE ODYSSEY WITHOUT THE NOBODY SCENE IT'S LITERALLY ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT MOMENTS IT'S NOT JUST A FUCKING PUN OMG
USAmericans stop appropriating and misunderstanding other cultures challenge IMPOSSIBLE
#the odyssey#they didn't get any greek people involved#they didn't respect the places they filmed in#and they did not understand or care to understand the work they were adapting#i have no doubt it's going to be entertaining as a movie#it's just going to be yet another USAmerican comic book style lite adaptation of a millennia old cultural piece they do not care for#or understand#or studied#dump plastic in the mediterranean#use millennia old stolen artifacts as jewellery#and apparently not understanding that some parts of a work must be preserved in order to make an ADAPTATION#otherwise it's in name only#i am just#why#i am usually fine with mythological adaptations#it's not like Epic the Musical is a perfect adaptation that perfectly preserves the themes of the original#i CAN HAVE FUN WITH IT OK#but this is a colossal blockbuster that had the audacity to call itself THE ODYSSEY#had it called itself Epic or Odysseus or Ulysses or Matt Damon Lost Again it wouldn't be as egregious
