Shut up faggot this is Pittkino and Banakino
why was he so angry that his cousin died?
who fucking cares so much about a cousin dying?
lmao waht a pussy
>cousin looks a lot like you and was trained by you
>wears your armor which literally covers almost his entire face
>sprints to battlefield and dies
>get pissed off
>go to kill ebil prince who murdered precious retarded cousin
Why was Achilles such a crybaby stupid ass piece of shit?
Pretty sure in the poem it was his fuckbuddy
It was always his intention to fight Hector. The only reason he went to troy was to increase his fame, and his stature as the greatest warrior in the world.
His cousin was his best friend, so he was genuinly distraught, but it was also an excuse to challenge Hector directly
This. Too edgy for 2009 (?) audiences, apparently.
>these two faggots haven't actually read the poem
>letting their homo propaganda slip into Ancient Greece yet again
I can't wait for this meme to die
Watched this movie in history class on last day of school.
Re-enacted this scene in the football field after school let out.
Was one of my favorite high school memories of all time.
Did you read it ? Is it possible for you to prove that they were not ? ( not guy from before, just curious, I have the books but several thousand pages to read )
Because he had trained him, and was obviously really fucking close with him. Think best friend/little brother combo.
Also Patroclus was his bitchboi fuckbuddy
Because hes a selfish murdering gloryseeking assclown. Thats the character. Thats the whole point. Hes a cunt, but you know his name.
yes, I have
if you want to skip around it just go to any reputable source from any university in Europe
nobody, not a single professor that specialises in ancient history will tell you they were lovers
homosexuality wasn't as rampant as they make it seem in Greece at the time
2004
The poem itself is ambiguous but people in 500BC were saying they were fuckbuddies, its hardly new.
Did Orlando Bloom ruin what was supposed to be 10/10 historykinos like Kingdom of Heaven and Troy? inb4 KoH didn't happen
Alright thx. Also, do you recommend one of the books ( Iliad, Odyssey ) ? I had a friend read the first during vacation, she said certain chapters were plain boring.
how is virginity going, bro?
He was fine in this. This movies problem was being too classical cinema. It was kind of hamfisted and corny. But that's not so much its fault as it is of the source material. I mean it's the original corny warrior poem.
You can't really get a better movie out of the Iliad than this, ever.
He speaks the Truth
Orlando was perfect in this. The whiny Romeo-fuckboi who gets his ass handed to him in a fair fight, mans up a little, but just a little, and gives Achilles an ignominious death for extra tragedy.
YOU SACK OF WINE
Troy isn't even bad, most people are simply butthurt that it didn't have trippy god shit from Iliad. Hence they didn't call the movie Iliad.
unless you have an active interest in history or philosophy it'll be boring
I just enjoy it because I study history, but even to me some filler bits are a bit out there
plus, there's a non-stop repetition of the same theme over and over again
here, have a video to illustrate it
youtube.com
Odyssey is a bit more straight to the point
>ambiguous
for whom? unless you already have that image of Greece where everyone was like the Sacred Band of Thebes, it won't be ambiguous
In the book, Patroclus was the older one, which means Achilles was more than likely the bottom, kek
Odyssey is quite readable
Iliad is 300 pages of people stabbing each other in dicks (I'm not joking, there're at least 30-50 dickstabs in the book). It's a very dull poem
Go read how Achilles speaks when he mourns Patroclus
Then go read how Andromache speaks when she mourns Hector.
Theres just similarities. And i dunno just the way Achilles is in general around Patroclus is evocative. Its like watching LOTR and trying to not see the slightest bit of gayness between Frodo and Sam.
>the most beautiful man alive
>played by Brad Pitt
>the most beautiful woman in the world
>played by Diane Kruger
Literally 10/10 perfect casting
Thx to you both !
Not if Achilles didnt want to be.
>You gave him the honor of your sword. You won't have eyes tonight; you won't have ears or a tongue. You will wander the underworld blind, deaf, and dumb, and all the dead will know: this is Hector, the fool who thought he killed Achilles
How did the movie get Agamemnon so wrong? In the book he's a great king who gets tragically cucked by Achilles, in the movie he's fat Hitler
that's literally because you're committing the act of imposing modern standards to Ancient times
it's about friendship and love between two friends
I can 100% guarantee you that if Tolkien was alive and he was shown LOTR he wouldn't have picked up any gay vibe between the too
I had the privilege of being introduced to the Iliad before knowing what homosexuality was so it's no wonder I don't see it
it has plenty good and colorful stuff
>Achiles fighting the scamander river
>the shield of achilles
>sarpedon being flown away in the thick of battle
>the gods dispute
>the listing of ships
dickstabs (in the groin area) are usually the most lethal
Why did they completely cut out gods from this movie ?
Hector should have mooned him and gone back to fucking that fine ass wife of his.
Helen of Troy miniseries did it better desu and without a ton of makeup
He was shit in this but wasn't that bad in KoH.
Yeah, DC KoH would have been GOAT with a better lead, but it was still great. He was so fucking out of place in Troy though. Bana and Pitt carried the movie well enough in spite of that.
AAAAACCCCHHHHIIIIILLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS
Never heard of pederasty or ancient Greece? E'erbody back then thought they were lovers.
Fucking Heracles was fucking dudes and she-dudes left and right
WATCH IT ACHILLES
again, not as rampant as you think and the sex wasn't that prominent
to fuck someone in the ass in Ancient Greece was to establish that someone as someone much lower than you
even thigh-fucking was not something accepted between equals
just stop with your self-insert bullshit, mate
>what a pussy
>once his cousin died he went on a massacre of everyone to the point even the Gods took notice
I don't know if you'd even want to see this guy face to face after he lost his cousin
>to fuck someone in the ass in Ancient Greece was to establish that someone as someone much lower than you
Not really. Pederasty was quite prestigious, especially between students and teachers. Socrates was a known boipussy aficionado
Ugly nose
>talking out of your ass
good to know I can ignore you and not bother anymore
>good to know I can ignore you and not bother anymore
I know that it bothers you to know this, but those greeks were gayer than your dad and almost as likely to be fucking children too.
FIGHT HIM SON
FIGHT HIM
>bothers you
why would it? I've nothing against homosexuals you faggot
what bothers me is that pillow biters such as yourself are digging hard to insert this modern notion of homosexuality in Ancient Greece
read a book, dipshit
>FIGHT HIM SON
>FIGHT HIM
I wonder how hard it was to drag is drunken ass to set every day?
