I'm in a strange position where I'm annoyed enough by historical inaccuracies to not see the Odyssey Though, unlike some people, by historical inaccuracies I mean that they're wearing Iron Armor with fucking brushes on their heads in the BRONZE AGE, while the environment of Greece and Turkey is portrayed like bleak, blue-brown Ingerland instead of the Mediterranean climate it's meant to be It's just... As a director in 2026 making an adaptation of the most famous ancient Mediterranean epic of all time, why would you make it look like another boring western European knight flick There was an opportunity to do something interesting here and instead we get this embarrassingly eurocentric "Odyssey"

    @hummingbird@plasmatrap.com to be fair, the original book of the odyssey isn't historically accurate either to the bronze age
