Was your theater inside of a giant wooden horse by any chance?

    I was in the opposite theater as this one and, let me tell you, I've never had an easier time being in a phalanx. Absolute push-over roster, their collums aren't even symmetrical.

    I asked one of them and they told me there were only a few Greeks and at least two thousand Persians in the theater.

    its only woke in so far as it has brown people and a trans man in it. it doesn't have enough to say for it to conciously be woke or not

    You have to ask whether a not whether a movie based on an ancient Greek poem that burns out all the ancient Greek historical/mythological context so you're just left with a story about a warrior killing people in the east and returning home and killing everyone who "sullied his house" and then crying about it, all released in 2026 right wing hellworld and catering to those "people", is woke or not? Not to mention them chucking plastic skeleton props into environmentally protected areas of an Italian sea and leaving them to decompose and poison the environment?

    What do YOU think the answer is going to be?
