Okay so we watched Troy on thursday in classical civ because it was our last classical civ lesson of the term and here are my thoughts so far:

This is Achilles PLATONIC HETEROSEXUAL STRAIGHT COUSIN WHO HE IS COUSINS WITH THEY ARE COUSINS AND ALSO STRAIGHT

Where is Cassandra?? Where is my girl Cassandra???

What Are they wearing

no seriously tho

Do you think the writers have ever like. seen a picture of an ancient greek person

PLATONIC COUSIN

Briseis deserves better.

There’s only like four people I like in this film and it’s Odysseus, Ajax, Briseis, and Hector

Also Briseis and Achilles falling in love makes me uncomfortable. Don’t Like That

Also the scene where Ajax is trying to get to land quicker and just. Yeets a sailor off his seat and starts rowing in his place was straight up hilarious

The bit at the start where Achilles kills the other army’s main guy was like. Not that impressive??? Like sure he killed him with only one stab but also. He wouldn’t have been able to do that if the guy was wearing chest armour. Like I don’t mean to victim blame but it’s a war put your tits away

ACHILLES’ STRAIGHT HETEROSEXUAL COUSIN

Ok but seriously the design for the entire thing was just. Atrocious. Like they Did Not Understand The Assignment

Troy also has the flaw that the Odyssey has; it fails to realise that in order for us to root for our protagonist, our protagonist must be likeable

Ok but this film has done more to make me like Odysseus than the Odyssey ever has

Also I‘ve already said this but I cannot convey how shitty the fits are in this film. Like. They’re atrocious I’m sorry

The film can be quite funny at times?? Not on purpose though. Well I think one time where this kid is like “I wouldn’t want to fight a guy that big” and Achilles is like “That’s why you’re forgettable”

No but Seriously what are they wearing

Today I was doing my portrait that we’re doing in art and I was painting the eyes and I hadn’t done the eyelids or pupils (or eyebrows) yet and I joked to my friend who was sitting behind me that he could use it as inspiration for his project on the uncanny valley and then HE AGREED AND TOOK A PHOTO OF MY PAINTING AND THEN PROCEEDED TO TELL ME HOW MY PAINTING HAD INSPIRED HIM AND HOW PART OF HIS PROJECT ON THE UNCANNY VALLEY WAS GOING TO BE BASED ON MY PAINTING

Thinking about that time (read: 24 hours ago) when I had to write something on how the Trojan war started in greek mythology for classical civilisation and started it with “At the start of the Odyssey, Zeus questions why mortals blame all of their troubles on the gods. Here, we shall discover why everything that happened in the Odyssey is actually the gods’ fault.”

Unfollowing. I was a fan of how he called his adoptive dad a god and took over Rome after his assassination, but I didn’t know that he renamed Sextillis August :/
