>>5583441Sadly for me the entirety of the Trojan War was ruined by this one scene from Troy (2004). The power of Hollywood has indelibly etched this depiction in my mind, this is exactly how it all happened.
There is something about this film which is... not right. Is it the power ranger costumes or flat lighting? I cannot quite articulate it, there is something just visually incongruous about the direction of this film (maybe Ridley Scott could have done it better?) Brad Pitt does a fairly convincing historical portrayal in Interview With The Vampire etc and in many many other films, just something about this one felt wrong. I always found his wonky Achilles leg jump-stab power move unintentionally hilarious, this is how all Greek phalanxes fought, by trampoline frog-hopping
(please put this combat move in your quest. Also, that exact vanquished warrior's facial expression)
