bogged down in goofs!!!

Rating: Null/10 (3 August 2005)

"Menelaus was not slain by Hector; he outlived him and was one of the soldiers in the Trojan Horse. He was eventually reunited with Helen and they apparently lived a happy life until his death in Sparta many years later. - Agamemnon was not killed by Briseis at Troy; he survived and returned home only to be killed by his wife Clytaemnestra and her lover Aegisthus. - Patroclus was not Achilles cousin, he was probably his lover. - Achilles was killed by a single arrow shot by Paris, way before the Greeks built the horse. - Priam was killed by Neoptolemos, son of Achilles. - Patrokles was deadly wounded by Euphorbos and Hector then cut his throat. - Ajax was not killed by Hector, instead he committed suicide, after slaughtering a flock of sheep, which in a bout of madness he mistook for the Greeks that had refused him the armor of the dead Achilles. - Paris died of a poisoned arrow shot by Philoket. - Astyanax, son of Hector, was thrown to his death from the walls of Troy by the victorious Greeks. - Andromache, wife of Hector, was taken as a slave by Neoptolemos. - Aeneas was a son in law to King Priam and the second in command of the Trojan forces. So Paris asking him his name at the end of the movie is rather strange." It is a long list of goofs isn't it? Is a person who has a smattering knowledge of Ancient Greek culture be misled by the movie? Is it all about creating a movie for a world of affluenza? Do you have to create a metrosexual Achilles(like a metrosexual Alexander created by Oliver Stone)? Do you have have to shift from retrosexuality to metrosexuality always? You decide yourself. No matter how cinematic it is I can't believe people who voted ten for this movie!!!!!
