    My 2 pence.
    I won't rewatch Oppenhiemer, it's too much.
    But if there's any value in Oddyssey I will 100% rewatch purely because of the setting.

    Regards the rest, meh, Homer probably wasn't a person as we understand writing The Illiad or Oddyssey (people have this vision of shakespear in a toga, it just wasn't), so the meaning is likely well marred from what its original author(s) between a totally different culture and attitudes now, coupled with most likely disparate creators, the mangling of oral traditions, possible mis transcribings and then translations well after the fact that simply could not be 100% accurate of a spoken tale that the translator never heard let alone account for how rapidly language can change over a few hundred years.

    So arguing about the true meaning is like pissing into the wind, the true meaning? the true meaning that you took from it from a translation done a few hundred years ago by someone so far removed from events (the very loose real events that inspired the myth) they have no frame of reference beyond their OWN moral values and feelings.

    Short version, its a film based on a story made up 2500 years ago.

    I mean, it looks cool, but just far too much crammed into the cram hole
