I mean...take it up with Homer. Nolan isn't the one who wrote Telemachus off the throne. If you have an issue with that plot thread you're going to have to criticize the author of the poem.

You misrepresent what I said then pretend your lie comes from me. A common tactic from you zeros.

You asked:

quote:

Why hasn’t he come of age yet, Odysseus inherited the throne at 13?


I answered:

quote:

Primogeniture was not a standard practice in ancient Greece as it pertained to royalty. If the son of a king was seen as weak or unworthy, a stronger son from another noble house could easily supplant him.

I’m beginning to think he didn’t actually watch it because nobody could be this retarded.

Yet Odysseus literally says “before he comes of age”

It’s been a huge success. Audiences and most critics don’t give a shite about the absurd criticism about “woke”. That complaint is tired and boring

Its a valid complaint. Helen of Troy is WHITE, not african BLACK.

A face to launch a 1000 ships! yeah fricking right.

Tranny Warriors unite!!!

Pointing out the Woke ideology that is ruining cinema isnt tired, isnt boring. Its ACCURATE. Probably why you dont like it. You tend to live in a fantasy world of moral depravity and godlessness

Hey MK, not that I care, but just checked the board and somehow I have a serial down-voter.

How does a post about my personal experience with Atari 8-bit computers randomly get DV. Must be a Commodore 64 guy.

Buddy some of these people from this board have real problems. Had some following me around to other boards yesterday and a couple more went to help board to try and have me banned. It’s not healthy behavior for sure.

I do not want you banned. I don't want any others than the so clearly visible alters and trolls - to be vetted - and justify.

ETA: We all can hyperbole and overstate.

There is no way you typed this in any earnestness. Confusing what you want to be true with an actual objective fact is a common mental habit called wishful thinking or subjective validation. Best of luck.

And yet, i did. Your inability or unwillingness to accept it is of no concern to me. The points I have given, that others have brought up about the specifics of this movie and where it fails along with why it matters are documented. No one is arguing these things, just trying to insult or mock anyone who notices them.

There’s literally zero woke ideology in this movie.
