Where was Diomedes?

Rating: 6/10 (3 April 2009)

He was the strongest of warriors, yet, he doesn't appear in the movie. Maybe he will be in The Odyssey? Just curious. In Virgil's Aeneid the first warrior who entered the Trojan Horse shortly before the sack of Troy. He was supposed to be the strongest of them all. Favored by Athena you'd think he'd be in some scene. I did the research and he was around during the battles according to stories, and he settled lands south of the Trojan War later in his life. In the Iliad Diomedes and Nestor are often read speaking in war strategy meetings. Who would play him and would he fit in the Odyssey on screen well? Just to point that out, I mean why not include some for the boasting of more boring others?
