In my opinion, mythology has opened a door to an entirely different world. By that, I mean a myth can be defined as a story of vague origin, rather unreal or imaginary. It is a fictitious story that uses the supernatural, sharp contrasts, and amazing speed. By viewing the movie, one is too caught up in the ambience created by the dazzling special effects to weven consider any evidence of history. I share that same viewpoint.
Imagination is the basis for mythology, and our imagination is what gives a myth an eternal life.
