Chris Nolan did a film with a very specific theme.
Once you no longer care for your neighbor, the stranger, the guest - you are the feared People from the Sea
Once you no longer believe that hospitality is about as Godly as it gets, then civilization is lost.
The rich and powerful have convinced so many that their neighbor, a stranger, a guest is taking from them to distract the attention away from the real takers.
Just hope that one day you are not the neighbor, the stranger or the guest.

Why don’t Republicans just make their own movies instead of crying about it

Real People aren’t mad, right wing trolls/bots that exist just to shit on everything are making noise because they can’t bring anything original to the table besides pearl clutching and being the snowflakes they espouse to hate. It’s engagement bait no one really thinks this we used to be able to just ignore this shit before but since Elon bought twitter they’re amplified.

Conservatives are mad. Ancient Greeks were familiar with Africans. Homer were referred to them as Atheopians. Plus the story is bigger than casting choices.

I feel like the people who don’t like the Odyssey are the same people who think the moon landing was fake

It’s not that the casting isn’t “Greek” it’s that it’s forcing us to have dialogue on these political narratives. Just cast the best people for the role. Leave politics out. You want $18. That’s what it cost now to see a movie at a regular screen. It better be amazing.

the modern dialogue thing is especially annoying because Homer wrote in modern dialogue. these events were 400 to 500 years old yet all the dialogue is in (then) modern Greek. the version Odysseys spoke would have been like what original Shakespeare is compared to our English today; both technically English but essentially unrecognizable. so Nolan did the exact same thing Homer did and it makes perfect sense

To be fair, most people found it exceptionally offensive to cast a Sudanese women as a Greek queen. Not only was it the highest form of racism, but deliberately done to prove a political point.

Helen is real to some people as an embodiment of what ppl found beautiful at that time - ancient cultures inspire fashion, self expression - art. Culture for us Europeans is important it’s what grounds us and had us survive living sometimes unchanged lives. It’s our comfort of the routines and customs and family life. It’s something someone who summarises Odyssey as “guys it’s not real” clearly has never experienced
