TROY (2004) Movie Reaction Part 1/2! | First Time Watch | Brad Pitt | Eric Bana | Orlando Bloom

Paris is the REAL villain of the movie.

[@babushka9998]

tbh if it wasn't Paris, soon or later they would have attacked troy anyways. Paris was actually a perfect "reason" to finally attack. also if wasn't the greeks. some other nations would have attacked anyways.

There is so much more for the attack on Troy and it’s not JUST Paris. there is definitely more back story to it! and yeah maybe the movie made seems like paris fault. for example in the history books it says helenas fault, cause of her beauty, a war began. so there is no point to trying to say otherwise

[@nickdouglas736]

@@babushka9998 you understand that this is story is a myth and there's no historial evidence on this war. There a dozens of versions of this story written over several centuries and Historians aren't even sure Troy actually existed the way it's described by Homer. It's still an ongoing debate whether it's pure fiction or has at least a historical core in Homers version of the trojan wars it is indeed Helenas kidnapping that starts the war which leads to a ten year siege on troy and finally to the legendary trojan horse.

That big guy that threw horses with their riders like it's nothing is Ajax another legendary greek hero.

[@GuillermoCambro-cq3gl]

It's sad though that he basically became a jobber to Hector

[@nataliestclair6176]

I would not refer to Ajax the Greater as a jobber. He was the Greeks best fighter only behind Achilles. He fought Hector twice. The first time they fought all day until Zues intervened and put an end to the fighting and Hector amd Ajax exchanged gifts out of mutual respect. The 2nd time they fought was when the Torjan Army tries to burnthe Greek ships. Ajax, weilding his mighty spear, basically single handedly holds off the Trojan army. He and Hector fight again and aided by Zues, Hector disarms Ajax but does not wound him. Seeing the Zues favors Hector in the fight, Ajax withdraws. Thanks to Ajax, the Trojans succeed in buring only one Greek ship When Patroclus is killed by Hector, it is Ajax that rescues Patroclus body from Hector who is trying to claim it. Hector does not kill Ajax in the Illiad. Ajax kills himself. After Achilles is slain, a competition is held who should get his armor. It comes down to Ajax amd Odysseus. Ajax argues since he rescued Achilles body and do to his Great skill and strength he should get the armor. Odysseus argues he should get it and Odysseus being the more eloquent speaking is awarded the armor. Ajax is so distraught and "conquered by his own grief", that he kills himself.

[@GuillermoCambro-cq3gl]

Mannelouse in the original mythology wasn't evil or abusive or unfaithful. He genuinely loved Helen and she actually loved him. Helen only left him for Paris because the goddess of love Aphrodite made her fall in love with. Paris. Aphrodite, Athena and Hera were in a contest to see who was the most beautiful. They asked Paris to decide and offered him different things. Aphrodite offered to make Helen love him and he chose her. When Helen ran away with Paris she didn't even leave a letter or anything to explain. So Mannelouse launched the war to rescue her believing she was kidnapped and he did get her back.

[@moonrock115]

Big thing to remember when it comes to the mindset of the Ancient Greek heroes, is that everything they say and do is done with the idea of personal glory. What can I do to further increase my renown? my reputation? what would doing this for someone else affect my own glory? The Ancient Greek heroes in the old plays were quite egotistical and self absorbed. Even those like Odysseus are consumed by this yearning for legacy and status. Comparatively the heroes of the Ancient Romans are the complete reverse of this mindset: instead of personal glory it is glory for Rome. What can I do to better Rome? What can I do go make Rome known across the land? What can I do to increase the prosperity of Romes people?

[@thatonkgau5221]

In the actual mythology Achilles was the son of the king Palonius and the demigoddess Thetus daughter of posiedon. Thetus bathed Achilles in the mystical river of stix which leads to the underworld. Bathing in the water made Achilles invincible all over his body except for the heal as that's where his mother held him. Thetus predicted Achilles death in the war and told him to hide. So he disguised himself as a woman and hid in a kings court. It worked until Odysseus found him and revealed his secret. Achilles only refused to stop fighting because Agammendon had the woman he loved. The movie made Achilles a lot less heroic.

[@alcibiadesW]

The heel story is a rather late addition, first known from the 1st Century AD. It isn't part of the Iliad.

[@joshc.8489]

And making Brad Pitt disguised as a woman will make it look more heroic? Sure lol.

[@nataliestclair6176]

Both those stories were not in the original Illiad. They were never in the Iliad. Those stories were written by the Roman poet Statius around 90 AD. According to what archeologists can deduce the Iliad was first told around 1250 bc and the oldest written account of it ever found was dated to around 800 bc. The stories about Achilles being dipped in the river Styx and hiding as a girl were written by Statius in his poem about Achilles titled Achilleid.

I've watched like 10 of these reactions to "Troy". This is the one I like best. You listen to the dialog, not talking over it, and give pretty smart comments & reactions. Insight, humor, but also some compassion. Most reactors miss a lot of the points the movie raises. I saw this movie when it was released in theaters 20 years ago. I'd read the myths decades before as a kid. The makes me think of what could've happened that inspired the supernatural story. But no gods here, no super powers. The embellishments I see are the exaggeration of Troy's walls, and how advanced the city is shown to be. They borrowed from other civilizations from that time period. I could see people thinking Achilles was so good at fighting that he couldn't be killed, like that boy said in the beginning of the movie. I could soldiers finding Achilles at the end of the movie, with that arrow in his ankle, and figure that must've been the one spot he was vulnerable...

[@thunderspear2251]

Funnily enough, that first stab that Achilles pulls off against the champion is anatomically correct. It was an old technique they used, since the sword was long enough to reach down and hit the top of the heart, while that angle let you avoid the ribs, shoulder blades, sternum, and collarbone.
