they would never do it justice anyway, probably make it some transformers like spectacle designed to appeal to as wide an audience as possible. remember that gods of egypt movie? exactly, i rest my case.

Because Ishtar is a total cunt who ruins a mans life because she wont sleep with him. Which might be a bit too home

how the fuck is it that some 4000+ year old clay tablet is still so resonant today? I read it maybe two years ago now and hardly a week goes by that I dont think about it. Enkidu's death hits me in the feels no matter how many times I read it.

>this one animal dude had sex with some whore for seven days
>uhh ok what happens next

That's when I stopped reading it.

Because humans from 2500 BC, at the end of the day, had the same existential crises than we do.

I hate how many fat incels pretend to have read Gilgamesh just to sound badass
Nathan Young
you know it's only like 60 pages max, right? you can literally read it in a day

ancient people just had autism about certain things in their myths, like the catalog of ships or listing all the fucking dwarves
Asher Barnes

Or if you're a lazy fuck like me just get an audiobook. Even on 85% speed its only like 2 hours long
The real answer though is because than it would highlight just how much shit the bible lifted from other sources

We read it in elementary school. In american public education. Its pretty low tier literature honestly

generally speaking you can’t film ancient mores and values in modern media. it’s upsets people too much. you couldn’t even film hbo Rome today due to its portrayal of slave treatment. Gilgamesh is also just a little too gay for modern audiences to handle, like cool gay not lgbtdbfhrid gay
Jacob Miller
>due to its portrayal of slave treatment
you mean how slaves were basically house pets who did chores and not whipped constantly and raped by uncle cletus?
Robert Bailey
I think he means the little boy sex slaves. That might have a couple of issues in modern day sensibilities
Christian Brooks
Did they fuck?
Nicholas Murphy
Because then nobody would say
>actually that's just x and x
since this is one of earliest surviving great work of literature. they can't complain about it they way they complain about tarantino movies.

Because the Jews want to monopolize any stories that come from the Levant and ME (read: in this case totally ignoring it), ESPECIALLY if it predates their shitty variety of boring monotheistic desert death cult.
