Fairy tale illustrations by Nadezhda Illarionova

(x) genuinely and from the bottom of my heart: what the fuck is christopher nolan on about? i wish a single other example had been given besides the dog thing because when i think of the big payoffs in the odyssey, they are, in chronological order: the reunion with telemachus; the slaughter of the suitors; the reunion with penelope. (i suppose the reunion with laertes counts too although book 24 is so anticlimactic it doesn't quite feel in the same tier as the others.) these things... could not possibly be more set up. they are the focus of first four books of the poem!!! what needs to be done to make an audience ready for them that is not accomplished by a fairly straightforward adaptation of, again, literally the literal beginning of the poem? like the text of the poem opens on "suitors bad; wife and son sad; king gone" and closes on "suitors dead; wife and son happy; king home [until... i mean whatever. i would never fault a screenwriter for omitting 24 lmao]." what do you MEAN there is no foreshadowing in the odyssey there is a literal bird prophecy hinting at the climax of the story in book 2!! (prophecy and omens also come up like 1 million other times on odysseus's way home? like people are literally ALWAYS hinting at things that have not happened yet...) like, HUH? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT CHRISTOPHER. CAN YOU EXPLAIN TO ME HOW YOU ARE DEFINING SET-UPS AND PAY-OFFS BECAUSE I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
