2025-10-04 16:09:48 +0000 UTCIs there a reason why you can't put the edited version out at the same time as the full length? Or just lazy.

2025-10-01 07:18:20 +0000 UTCAlso sorry if this has been asked before, but have they seen Titanic? If they haven't this would be an epic reaction. I'm thinking of this cause Troy has the same music composer so it brought Titanic to mind. Either way so happy to see them reacting to movies again!

2025-09-23 23:13:05 +0000 UTCI admire how balanced you are in your review, because even though Achilles is an epic character to watch in battle, and like you said a demi-God among men with the ego to match, he's such a sulky, petty, selfish child to me, especially in comparison to Hector, not that I mind it, I think it fits the movie, but didn't like him nor 'connect' to him. Even though he was not serving Agamemnon, he still participated to this war, just like a mercenary. I loved his music theme though. I also liked Odysseus, there are only a few characters with a brain in this movie. The biggest change for the music that I can remember in the extended version was during the fight between Hector and Achilles, and also at the end when the Greeks sack the city. Also the guy who wrote the script of Troy is one of the main creators of Game of Thrones, David Benioff.

2025-09-23 23:07:07 +0000 UTCIt's such a foundational tale of western civilization. So many terms and concepts we use today are from that story. An Achilles' heel. A Trojan horse. And odyssey. A siren's song. Etc.

2025-09-22 17:24:10 +0000 UTCThat fight between Hector and Achilles is iconic. The choreography was amazing.
Darrell Henry
2025-09-22 13:38:36 +0000 UTCThe taste for this channel is entirely geared toward Spartan hug?
Ian Mossner
2025-09-20 19:25:30 +0000 UTCI'm glad you didn't know the story, because it made for a great reaction. But holy shit, you guys, go read your ancestors' most famous literature! How do North American WASPs know the story and the characters better than you two Greeks? 😂

2025-09-20 00:40:04 +0000 UTCAll over a girl says the prettiest of them all, Pudgey

2025-09-19 23:15:22 +0000 UTCSo glad you guys finally watched this one! Anyone else notice Ramsey’s fireball attack on Stannis in GOT seemed to be directly inspired by Troy’s attack on the Greeks? Troy movie has been bested by other projects that came after it but the influence can’t be denied.

2025-09-19 11:26:19 +0000 UTCit cracked me up when pudgey said oh he lives for the first time about Odysseus bc the epic the odyssey is about his journey trying to return home from the trojan war lol. i absolutely love the Iliad and the odyssey 10/10 would recommend reading them. the language can be a bit hard to follow but the stories are awesome.

2025-09-19 11:09:34 +0000 UTCThe actor you mentioned that's also in "300" is also Garp in "One Piece"

2025-09-19 08:05:56 +0000 UTCAchilles!
William Abbott
2025-09-19 05:39:45 +0000 UTCHector is such a great, and tragic character.
Vanessa Navarro
2025-09-19 05:21:28 +0000 UTCFINALLY! Also, weird fun fact! The actress who plays Helen is married to the actor who plays Daryl in The Walking Dead

2025-09-19 04:47:26 +0000 UTCAlso did you notice Sneaky Snake Pycelle? 😂
Ricky
2025-09-19 03:41:31 +0000 UTCLoved watching this movie with you guys! It's one of my all time favorites, and actually my first "historical" war movie as a kid. Now you need to watch Kingdom of Heaven 😁
Ricky
2025-09-19 03:40:58 +0000 UTCNawr way!!!!!! Let's go!!!!!
Sharpgirl
2025-09-19 02:06:34 +0000 UTCi like Troy alot, alot but Gladiator to me is in another realm altogether, same with 300

2025-09-19 01:40:53 +0000 UTCOmg, I've been waiting forever to see Spartan react to this movie!
Cal
2025-09-19 00:53:58 +0000 UTC"Sing to me oh Goddess, of the wrath of Achilles Peleus' son, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans." Achilles is the original antihero. It still blows my mind how amazing and emotionally/morally complex this 3000-year-old story is.
David McDonald
2025-09-19 00:22:49 +0000 UTCMight want to wait ... still hoping they might do Foundation at some point. But for now having the Expanse is good enough for me.
Hans Engelen
2025-09-19 00:08:44 +0000 UTCI love love love that you two keep your reactions to recognizing actors to a minimum. I didn't know until now that that was a conscious decision. It's awesome. It's probably my no. 1 pet peeve with reactors. How they immediately jump out of the movie to discuss the actor and whatever role they knew him from. Or worse, when they spent the next five minutes vocally trying remember where they've seen the actor instead of being immersed into the movie. It has ruined many an important scene for me. You two are great.
Julien
2025-09-18 23:33:16 +0000 UTCIt was Paris of course, but it's almost as if he surrendered to the vulnerability and love of Briseis in that moment rather than fighting to his death.
CpaSpartan Pudgey
2025-09-18 23:15:31 +0000 UTCYes!!!

2025-09-18 23:13:14 +0000 UTCDid you recognize Commander Mormont?
Hans Engelen
2025-09-18 23:03:33 +0000 UTCwell i guess i'll wait for edited version on this one cause its on amazon here but also means you have to have AMC. Once done with Severance I can cancel Apple...unless you do Silo. Hate having 8 different subscriptions.. welp i rented it to watch it with them lol
EnVy316LeGeNd
2025-09-18 22:26:09 +0000 UTCFrom after the discussion, I think why Achilles stands out to so many people is because despite him being near-mythic and godlike in war, he was shown to be deeply human and he went down just as easy as anyone else. It's also kind of ironic that someone like Paris would be the one to kill Achilles .
Demo
2025-09-18 22:05:34 +0000 UTCBut it's more than that. The conceit of the movie is that these are the real life events upon which the Trojan War mythology was based. So the idea is that when the body of the greatest warrior Achilles was found, with an arrow singularly lodged in his heel, people concluded that the arrow must have felled him and that the heel was his weakness. So the mythology built from that observation. The movie is attempting to show how a myth can be built from mundane occurrences (random arrow in the heel of a guy that was already mortally wounded) and false interpretation.
Julien
2025-09-18 22:02:25 +0000 UTC"Mythologically accurate" rather than historically accurate 🙊 whoops
CpaSpartan Pudgey
2025-09-18 21:57:55 +0000 UTCMy favorite movie OAT. I'm glad y'all enjoyed it!!
Demo
2025-09-18 21:46:19 +0000 UTC„What irony that Achilles was killed with a shot through the Achilles heel“ Well, it‘s not irony at all - the Achilles’ heel is literally named after Achilles, since in mythology it was his only vulnerable spot.

2025-09-18 21:39:15 +0000 UTCI know Spartan is gonna get a GEE UP from this can't wait to watch.

2025-09-18 21:29:08 +0000 UTCBrad Pitt himself would disagree quote from Brad Pitt : "I had to do Troy because [...] I pulled out of another movie and then had to do something for the studio. So I was put in Troy. It wasn't painful, but I realized that the way that movie was being told was not how I wanted it to be. I made my own mistakes in it. What am I trying to say about Troy? I could not get out of the middle of the frame. It was driving me crazy. I'd become spoiled working with David Fincher. It's no slight on Wolfgang Petersen. Das Boot is one of the all-time great films. But somewhere in it, Troy became a commercial kind of thing. Every shot was like, 'Here's the hero!' There was no mystery."

2025-09-18 21:20:02 +0000 UTCAn supremely awesome surprise! Underrated gem of a love and combat movie. I love that you guys are just picking movies executively. Polls can be nice, but I think choosing your own adventures is best.
Paul
2025-09-18 21:18:54 +0000 UTCThere... is no history. It's all mythology (i.e., completely made up). At best, some historians think that the story of the Trojan War may have been inspired by a real war (possible) and that Troy may have actually existed but there is no consensus or evidence. This movie is an attempt to establish a faux-historical basis for the Trojan War myth. But there is no real history to know.
Julien
2025-09-18 21:10:21 +0000 UTCLet no man forget how menacing we are!!! We are Lions!!! In my opinion that's the Greatest shortest (key word shortest lol) speech in ancient war films! Brad Pitt was born to play Achilles!
dieselbeast
2025-09-18 20:58:19 +0000 UTCI don't want to put words in their mouths but Troy has been on their list for the longest time now since late last year I believe, but a lot of things have happened in between then and they are just now getting to it which I'm thankful for lol it's been suggested plenty ever since 300 and Gladiator
dieselbeast
2025-09-18 20:53:24 +0000 UTCMid take. Quite possibly some of the best set design and action sets in cinema.
Alex
2025-09-18 20:47:41 +0000 UTCYou guys can't imagine how much time I've been waiting for this... OMG.

2025-09-18 20:46:23 +0000 UTCOh snap

2025-09-18 20:44:01 +0000 UTC*cough* I do believe that Superbad had won the previous Poll for movies *cough*
