>spoiling an epic that was written 2800 years ago

wow

They cut the part about him dying out of his script so when he went out there he just thought it was for some friendly banter.

>THERE ARE NO PACTS BETWEEN LIONS AND MEN
What a kino line.

I wanted to read it but it's a fucking poem. No way I'm reading hundreds of pages of a fucking poem.

which translation should I read, lads? I for the life of me cannot comprehend plot details out of poetry

He didn't die for a female, he died because of a female. Thetis was bein' a silly goose and missed a spot.

>no sequel covering the Odyssey with based Sean

It still hurts bros

It's an original line from the Iliad.

Too bad they didn't fill the entire film with the original lines, it's got some incredible stuff

It's a poem but it doesn't read like one, it reads more like a grandiose tale with epic heroes, battles, and basically no bad guys other than some god doing cunty things from time to time. I read the original ancient Greek edition when I was 15 years old for school. I didn't have to read the entire thing other than the parts the class covered for ancient Greek, and normally I wouldn't give a shit, but it was such high kino even a retarded 14 year old like myself could appreciate its importance.

be glad it didn't happen, it was gonna be a cgi wankfest that would shit all over the complex moralities that made the Odyssey so amazing.

This, don't let the medium dissuade you. It's fucking kino. Don't let yourself go without reading it.

This is the true suffering. Maybe they didn't knew how to take the magic shit out of the story.

so what english translation is best, then?

Honestly my favorite movie. Just absolute hero kino, people like marvel and stuff for heroes and heroic stories but all you have to do to find unbelievable tales is look at history.

Because the gods made it happen.

why are sandalkino and sandalkino threads so comfy, lads?

I'm no expert, but most go for Robert Fagles' translation. Pretty sure it's what I read.

Cause they're patrician and so are the people who watch them.

>Finally get around to read the Iliad
>Get to the part where Hector fights Achilles

I've seen this suggested all over the place. Why's it good? Rootin'-tootin', headsplitting adventures? If so, weird that Chabon wrote the introduction.

read the introduction

Okey dokey, smokey.

>reading books in the current year

lmao

IS THERE NO ONE ELSE?

>nobody remembers Hector's name

If you aren't a coward, you answer the call to battle.

It would've been kino

Great book. I've been shilling it on Yea Forums for years
