I wish someone would cast Sean Bean in an Odyssey movie.

It would be brilliant and you all know it.

@Giancarlodude What his doing in it? Acting? Maybe? Crazy, I know.

@Lhein33 well said. and there´s another danger: ppl watching a movie like "Troy" and then thinking they know the Iliad. they don´t: not only are the fates of some major characters different in the movie than in the Iliad (or in other classic literary writings), but the movie fails to transmit the deeper meaning behind many events & incidents.

but that´s how it is nowadays: ppl watching a movie think they know the classic writings.

an Odyssey movie with modern special effects and Sean Bean as Odysseus

by Zeus, that would be an epic movie

Odysseus is my love..Sean Bean...oooohhh..mmmhhhh

[morbentfel]

odysseus is the best hero in all greek mythology

@fatsackofchron You are wrong about Poseidon. Poseidon supported fiercely the Greeks in the war. I can give you a lot of quotes from the Iliad where he encourages or even fights alongside the Greeks.

The Greeks after the fall of Troy desecrated a lot of trojan temples, that's why the gods sent them a lot of storms when they were returning to Greece. Poseidon got angy with Odysseus additionally, because he blinded his son, the cyclops Polyphemus.

@jcadams303 they explicitly said that? Cause I never heard it from them, so I thought they did... well then, i obviously didn't pay attention as much as i should have.

@jcadams303 She had known Achilles for all of 2 hours or something at that point. All she knew about him was that he was the leader of the men who had killed everyone at her temple. Excuse her for not weeping with gratitude...
