    The question was for people who actually saw the movie. Not looked at the cast and decided their opinion based on their fucked up culture war politics before it even premiered.

      Sinon was supposed to be a low key super soldier because Odysseus feels bad about a child getting picked and sent to war. On the long journey to Troy over the next like ten years Sinon receives extensive personal training by Odysseus.

      Then when it’s Sinon’s time to shine they’re a short, small, trans person that doesn’t act or appear narratively correct for a low key Greek super soldier at all.

        Elliot Page is an accomplished actor. Looking forward to seeing his portrayal. Sorry they didn’t cast a modern ubermensch for you, bub. I’m sure it was deliberate cultural Marxism or something. We’re doomed?

          I’m a westerner, man.

          Its just objectively a shit movie. If you want something a lot better, watch Gladiator.

            As if it wasn’t completely obvious who you are and where you get your ideas lol

            Edit: but you’re right I should have said solider, not comrades. I didn’t mean to imply you were Russian or being unauthentic. I do however think you’re at war with culture and totally unoriginal.

              I’m afraid so. :) At least the kind of “culture” you like.

                  Terrified? Do you get terrified about movies?

                  It’s a piece of shit movie. That’s it. Why does it bother you and why do you insist on calling it art? I mean sure, if you want, you can call it art. Technically all forms of expression can be seen as art. My comments can be art too. :)
