Just saw Troy.

Well, I liked it. Sure it may have done some things differently, but nothing that really bothered me. The only part that sucks, is that this popular movie is gonna fuck up the comical story I had written on the trojan war. People are going to be replying, "He wasnt gay! Patricles was his cousin!!!" Argh.

It was a really good movie, stop being so critical about it not following the Illiad to the last detail.

if i hadnt known the real story i would have found the movie much more interesting.

i laughed at some of the stupidest camera shots ive seen in a while. zooming in close on a person's face for them to make one expression was extremely comical. the battle where they changed closeups according to the background music made me almost die from laughing so hard...

I do believe I heard they think that they found Troy but that�s about it.

"Leprechaun leap stab" = the suck. As did when I saw people pulling swords from their backs, that is plain Hollywood there, people never wore swords on their backs, unless they pulled them out and down like you might see in old Samurai paintings. But a sword high on their back and then pulling it up and over is just dumb.

In the late 1800s, somebody followed the book's description and found where Troy would be. Apparently there was evidence of a city having been there.

The problem with this theory is the common practice of building cities upon the ruins of other cities. If Troy did stand there, all evidence of it being there is either going to be very hard to find, or be gone by now.
