There was more than rivalry between Achilles and Agamemnon. That was raw, unadulterated hatred.

[@Azsouth]

Ajax is a cousin of Achilles and the grandson of Zeus (the Greeks primary god), Achilles mother is Thetis, a goddess of water, which is why he sees her looking for seashells.

[@wheelmanstan]

Peter O'toole, than man playing Hector's father, is such a great actor. He's in an epic called "the lion in winter" that's basically a battle of the minds between his wife and his heirs..it's incredibly dialogue-rich. Very interesting film.

[@aj897]

My family loves this movie to the point we named one of our dogs Troy lol

[@danielhaynes2373]

Achilles prized Briseis as a "gift" from his men and he loved his men and all common soldiers. That is why he was so angry when she was taken from him.

13:33 You know the tale “Helen of Troy the face that launched a thousand ships”

[@bryansamson820]

the movie is so good, it made dad sit up

[@Cassy_mackay]

I wish I could watch movies with my dad , but I aways watch you 2 watching it makes me feel good thank you gentlemen.

[@danielhaynes2373]

I once met a young Greek man who was a bartender in Memphis (Tennessee not Egypt) who said that he once saw the mummified body of the REAL King Menelaus and said he was actually a very small man but a great warrior and historic hero.

[@Dnichols619]

With all due respect, he might have been telling a tale. It's not known whether Menelaus actually existed. As far as we know all of the characters in the Iliad were at least semi-mythical, including Menalaus' brother Agamemnon. There is a shrine dedicated to him and Helen though. Perhaps there is a corpse there. It's often assumed the Trojan War was a real event; however, there's not really solid proof of that either. At any rate, the Greeks themselves didn't exist yet. They would have been two factions of Mycanaeans.

[@cosimodemedici1530]

@@Dnichols619 The City of Troy was found by Archeologists decades ago.

[@Dnichols619]

@@cosimodemedici1530 sure, over a century ago actually, and if I had said anywhere in my response that Troy itself hadn't existed, then we might have something to argue about. But as it stands, you might have to check your reading comprehension skills, because I didn't actually say that.

[@GaParanormal]

14:06 brothers I just got back from Ukraine, but I'm an American... I was a " paid contractor " ...hate the word mercenary lol but I was in afgan and Iraq doing the sane thing ....and Somalia for a week ... for us Americans .. all we've known since our birth and the birth or our country is war .... iv seen enough war and death to last 100 lifetimes ... but no honor in it anymore..... so I love movies like this . War and dying for honor .... no more ... u should read the books .. they r very good and if u play games " Assassin's Creed ODYSSEY " HAS ALOT OF THIS MYTH anD STUFF to it...its a gorgeous game

[@cosimodemedici1530]

In the original story (The Iliad) Menelaus doesn't get killed he returns back to Sparta with Helen

[@danielhaynes2373]

Love watching you guys react together!

[@tentoesdownchristianity]

Hector in this movie is a great man. Paris was selfishly a lot of trouble. I also very much enjoy Odysseus. The young king of greece that fights with his men and strategizes well. I'm so glad you guys roasted Helen and Paris. A lot of people around where I'm from so engulfed with passion that they don't understand duty and love. I'm glad you guys do

[@G02372]

Each Trireme had 200 men aboard, the the 200, 170 were rowers however I expect that all of the 200 men had roles in battle or support of the battle once they had landed.

[@TheHulk2008]

This was like the Normandy of several thousand years ago. Do you realize how much you would have to do even feed 100000 soldiers and it is said they had seige towers 🤔 This is an insane amount of manpower. And the fact that this war went on for a 10 year seige is another unbelievable thing hard to believe I guess yes it's possible. But the invasion of 1000 ships 100000 men and seige towers and fire. The hardest part to believe is that this war started over two people in love.

[@GaParanormal]

The way Hector new to funnel all of them in between the gates reminds me of the movie 300 when Leonidas use his strategy...... I mean of course it's a strategy that will always work LOL but it's just cool because both these movies are epic....

[@drakeswarchannel2530]

Great work! I enjoy hearing your learned comments gentlemen.

[@GaParanormal]

It's funny how people always think that these things are myths and legends until they're not..... I remember when they Unearthed Troy about 20 years ago or whenever....... people thought that Pompeii and Herculaneum were myths until they found it under 50 m of ash..... people thought that Jericho from the Bible was a myth until they found it...... and all these places from the Bible we're Legends are myths until they got found..... it's just funny to me...... which bags the question since Troy is a real place could our Achilles really have existed?

[@Mewantsgothgf]

Doesn't mean everything happened the way it was told.

[@GaParanormal]

Brothers .... love the channel !! ❤️ may God b with u and ur father ....

[@timbaud5704]

Paris isnt to be bye bye... in legend he was the guy who let the people to italy where they founeded rome.

[@GaParanormal]

have a question it's not about the movie..... who do you think really built the Sphinx and the pyramids now that we know they're much older than any Dynasty in Egyptian history....... I'm sure they were still Egyptians but how do you think they were built? And when....

[@bewilderedbeest]

The filmmakers took great liberties with the original story. Helen didn't leave Sparta of her own free will. The goddess Aphrodite cast a love spell on Helen, making her fall helplessly in love with Paris against her will. Also, the throne of Sparta was Helen's birthright. Menelaus became king by marrying Helen, so if she was unhappy in her marriage she could have given Menelaus the boot. In Greek mythology, Helen and Menelaus were deeply in love, he rescued her, brought her back to Sparta, and they lived happily ever after.

[@Stephen64138]

What an incredible movie!

[@OpenGL4ever]

You should watch "Generation War" (2013) and "The Day After" (1983). If you like "Das Boot", then you will definitely like the first one.

[@cosimodemedici1530]

Achilles mother was the Goddess Thetis

[@abc123tiktok]

In the defense of Helen she had no choice going to Troy in the original story. Paris was a judge of beauty contest for the goddesses and he picked Aphrodite. She then reward him by kidnapping Helen and giving her to him. What is crazy is that Paris was even more unlikable in the original story being more pathetic and stupid. Helen still loved her husband and didn't want to be with Paris.

pour out a 40oz.. this is cheap beer that we pour out some for our dead homies. because we are poor we cannot afford better so we bless those to have gone with what we have

A coward he was a coward. He asked for that fight then cried as he hugged his brothers feet... This caused full blown war. That is cowardice and i dare say betrayal to his entire country and family.... Worse part is he lives at the end.....The weak dirt bag brother who betrays his country and his family and caused the death of everyone he loved.....

[@wheelmanstan]

His brother Paris is the worst character I've ever seen. haha I can't stand that guy.. This movie is much better than the ratings show. There's a theory that the surviving Trojans founded Rome..no proof in that but it's an interesting thought

[@myegyptiandadreacts4824]

“I love her….” If I have to hear that one more time 🤣

[@inventsable]

It's not a theory, it's just the plot of the Aeneid. It was commissioned by Octavian and written by Virgil as a way to connect Iulus, Aeneas' son and grandson of Aphrodite, to the lineage of Julius Caesar (Octavian's adopted father). Early Roman emperor propaganda to prove the divine lineage and right for the emperor to be legitimate
