doyleThree thoughts on Troy:
1) That was a bit shit, really.
2) Did the fucking fuckers fucking retcon Patroclus? "Cousin"?! Rather than "he whom I valued more than all others, and loved as dearly as my own life"? Blech.
3) I really want to read an Achilles/Patroclus Verona Beach AU.

Things I'm surprised Hollywood got right
on 2004-11-18 02:06 am (UTC)2) Peter O' Toole's Priam - Not sure how close to the myth, but a superb characterisation from a great actor.
3) Eric Bana's Hector - Again brilliant character. If he had somehow survived, I shamefully wouldn't have cared about the myth and just cheered.
4) Brian Cox's King - (shamefully I can't remember the name) - Again a villian you love to hate.
