My hatred for Orlando Bloom's character in this movie is immeasurable.
He asks for the duel then refuses to accept its outcome. I have also disliked Helen, but to be fair, she was sold into marriage by her parents at around 13 and saw no loyalty or respect from her King husband.
@@TheGunderian I understand Helen's behaviour
I found Paris bearable in this movie, not that the portrayal of him here changes my feelings towards Paris in the original story (briefly summarised as 'I don't like him') but in any case I'd still rather go for Oddyseus, Achilles or Hector (if I ever stood a chance against women like Briseis, Andromeda or Penelope even if we don't see her in this movie).
A real piss of sh*t !
this movie might be the only time his character made me want to slap him! đ€Ł
Sean Bean's first reaction to reading the script must have been like: "Wait a minute! Brian Cox, Peter O'Toole, Eric Bana, and even goddamn Brad Pitt all die in this movie! But I LIVE?! FUCK YEAH!!!"
đđđđđ so true
the only reason he survived is because he played odysseus
If i was Odysseus i may prefer death.
@@jasontodd6779 This reminds me of Plato's myth of Er, where Er visits hades and finds out that souls get to choose their next incarnation on Earth. Odysseus chooses the life of a man who has very little to do.
they should do a movie with Sean Bean after the trojan war lmao, he probs would prefer death xD
I'm enjoying the brother sister reactions. You can tell that poor girl has endured years of your insanity!
Her expressions to his comments are gold.
Iâm preparing for life đđ
I knew it!!! Lol there was no way such a babe would tolerate that level of geekness !!!
@@williamconto6977 Tf you on about?
the way he gets so hyped and waves his arms around i thought for sure she was gonna catch an accidental backhand or elbow to the face a few times during this reaction.
Achilles: "HECTOOOOOR!!!!"
Some Trojan: "The person you called, is temporarily unavailable..."
"Please try again later"
"No, no it's pronounced (Hec-t-ur) but, yes; he is coming..." *spear hits brick wall beside him* (idk if that's right im just joking)
@@KurticeYZ HECTOOORRR!
2:34 "If my kidnapper looked like that.."
LOL
HIM: What did you say?
HER: [makes innocent/sexy face]
Iâm not that protective I promise đ
@@justtrustash uh huh... yeahhhhh, sure you arenât.. đ€„ I can already tell that if she was to bring over a boy for dinner with the family, youâll be staring him down with a emotionless face, unblinking, unflinching, never taking your gaze off him... you will make sure ANY guy she dates has a very real fear of her older brother. If anything, youâll at least reduce any chance of her being cheated on, as they will DEFINITELY think twice about doing ANYTHING to emotionally hurt her...
I agree with her. If my kidnapper looked like that I'd be laying there with only one thought on my mind, 'When does the ravishing start?'
@@justtrustash Lol, you say that now, but if a guy mistreat her even the slightest, you'll be like, "HECTOOORRR!!!"
"War is young men dying and old men talking." About three thousand years later, not much has changed.
When Achilles asked Briseis if she would come back to Greece with him, he was actually willing to give up the glory his mother had foretold was hand in hand with his Doom, but when his cousin died and he killed Hector and the king came to ask for his sons body. Achilles knew his fame and death were sealed that is why he cried and told hector he would see him soon. At least that is how I read the poem and this movie, plus being a veteran of war you have to respect anyone willing to die for their beliefs.
Hector vs Achilles one of the best movie duells ever.
it was like a dance, beautiful, but also amazing how i felt Achilles' anger in his spearthrusts :)
truly love your energy and how you guys are teasing and vibing with eachother
You legend!! Glad you enjoyed it mate â€ïž
In the book it only says 'And they fought like gods. Then: Achilles Won' The Director demanded a great choreographed fight here, and nobody had clue one what it should be. The actors heavily contributed to get what we see here.
@@TheGunderian but to be fair, isn't the most work done by stuntmen in fights like this?
@@tyrionlannister4920
Not this time it was the actors doing it.
â@@TheGunderian In Iliad Achilles was chasing Hector around the city, also Ageas was stronger than Hector and didnt die he would jumb from ship to ship and kill everyone on his own
"Oh you and your spirituality go look at the crossed eyed eagle" fuggin wheezin đđđ
Achilles died after being touched in the heel because in the original ancient Greek story, he was actually immortal except for this part. It's because when his mother Thetis dipped him in the river Styx as an infant (making him immortal), she held him by one of his heels. So it was his only weak spot.
The tragedy for him, was to be killed by one of the weakest and most feeble character in the story. And also, to be killed for vengeance, exactly the same way he killed Hector for vengeance. He tasted what he did to others.
You missed a spot, Thetis lol
In the ancient greek versions he was simply the best fighter and had the best armor. The styx thing is first described in roman times.
The arrow that hit Achilles' heel was poisonous.
it also shows the random, uncaring nature of war, especially when it comes to ranged weapons. doesnt matter how good you are, sooner or later, death always wins.
actually paris was an excellent archer, just not a great fighter in melee
"A really good singer fly." OMG LMFAO
"Look at him! He's so tired he's breathing out of his ass and his mouth!"
You notice Achilles pulled out the arrows in his chest but the one through his heel was still there? So it looked like he'd been killed by an arrow through the foot. Thus legends are born...đ
Iâm dying đđđ
In the tales, Achilles never had a fight with Hector because Hector ran away and Achilles had to chase him around the city. Paris killed Achilles before the Trojan Horse. Agamemnon and his brother survived. Helen went back to Sparta and Odysseus got lost at sea on the way home which lead to the Homer's Odyssey in which it took him ten years to get back to his wife. And the Gods played major roles in the whole thing, in fact it was Aphrodite that started the war in the first place. So, Hollywood definitely took some liberties with this one. Oh, and the Trojan war lasted 10 years, not 4 weeks like the movie suggests.
@@SLJShortt That's in SOME tales and plays not all of them. In at least the one I read he does indeed kill Hector and have a talk with Priam who makes a speech very much like that one. It is true that this movie changed things quite a bit esp leaving ALL the supernatural stuff. Far as I'm aware all of the several stories that have Achilles and the Trojan war in them ALL have the Gods playing some parts, so all involve at least magical/Divine happenings.
@@remo27 Homer is known for writing amazing tales but not for his accuracy. Basically, it's a bit like the Bible. A story based on other stories based on other stories. Except that this one has a bit more merit since they actually found the ruins of Troy in Turkey a few years ago.
how brilliant you might be to come out with that idea
The fight scene between Hector and Achilles was so well choreographed and cohesive. The movement, sound effects, camera angles. Perfect.
29:34 âHe (Achilles) just got destroyedâ.
100% agree. Achilles is a great warrior and killer. Blinded by rage and hate, and Prince Hector, a great honorable man being the receiving end of that was too much.
King Priam humbles Achilles to the point where he cries and calls Hector âmy brother.â
Hector was my favorite in this movie, such a good dude.
"Oh, they're in that thing..." Yes, that's the Trojan Horse. That's why some things (esp some kinds of computer viruses but other things as well) are called Trojan Horses. They look harmless on the outside, but inside something dangerous or damaging lurks.
Trojan Horses were also what we used to call the biggest size of condom.

Congrats, I know the feeling. Although long ago.
Well, Sean Bean didnât die, but since he was playing Odysseus, he had one helluva time getting back home.
But thatâs a whole other movieđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
One heck of a guy.
See the Kirk Douglas Version of that Trip Home! .... Ulysses 1954.
It's crazy how Orlando Bloom can play a bitch in this movie but also be an athletic badass in the Pirates of the Caribbean and Lord of the Rings movies. Orlando Bloom is honestly one of my favorite actors and only someone like Hector can make him look weak
The great thing about this movie is that there is no main villain. Everyone had believable motivation. Great film!
@@x_mau9355 wrong. the story about the real Iliad was very diferent this movie was an adaptation. the dude was talking about the movie, is not the same
Iâm pretty sure Brian Coxâs Agamemnon could be considered the main villain of this movie. Donât think anyone was rooting for him in the least.
I think proclivity towards rape and sexual slavery make someone a villain. Yes, there is no villain of the âstoryâ, because the scope is just too big for characters like that, but there is no doubt who the bad guy is
Agamemnon was absolutely the villain lol
The sister survived this reaction?! Maybe there is hope for her
Wait till she sees gladiator đ
Peter O'Toole, one of the greatest actors of our age.
That delivery of those lines when he retrieves Hectors body... speechless.
"Drink to my bones? Hector?" LOL!!
When a hero dies they celebrate them with a pyre, burning until only the large bones are left. Saying you will 'drink to their bones' is actually giving honor, not an insult. Paris is supposed to let himself be killed to gain honor after he loses the duel. But his morale breaks and he runs like a dog, and Hector should not kill Menelaus like that. It is all dishonorable and weakens Troy. This foreshadows that Troy must now fall. Before this, Achilles' disrespect to the temple of Apollo makes the gods favor and help Troy. The gods constantly connived for both sides, for their own ends. Athena greatly favored Odysseus with almost no change, no matter what she was told to do by Zeus. The fact Achilles is not religious or care about the gods, like Anna, is very interesting. Maybe this is why he stands above superstitious kings and heroes, but also why he is a tragic figure with no foundation.
âWhat does it mean Hector?â
If Leonidas was shot with 4 or 5 arrows he would still have had time to make another epic speech before bitch-slapping Paris all the way to France.
đđ crying
You can always tell who is the better fighter in the battle between Hector and Achilles. Hector is a EXTREMELY good fighter but Achilles is on another level. Achilles had more strength and stamina. You can see Hector start to struggle towards the end but Achilles NEVER faltered. At the end of the fight it was clear Achilles was just playing with him.
He was bot olaying or else He wouldnt've gotten the scratch on hir armour
@@JPeraltavideosheâs still not going to his absolute max, a single scratch is crazy to get, but it was never a doubt that Achilles would win
It was man vs god. A demi god an unfair match. Props to Hector for keeping up and giving achilles his best bout
Hector vs Achilles is the best fight scene of all time. The choreography, emotion, acting and style are unmatched. Complete perfection.
Ash " im gona have to take my shirt off"
sister" please keep that on"
i cant. i died laughing.
I never understood why this movie didnât get the critical acclaim it deserves. Itâs great, IMO
Because it isn't according to the story. Simple.
@@johnvanhal2450 - Like that has ever stopped the critics before?
@@brettg274 It ain't exactly history, but you can't mess with stories like this.
@@johnvanhal2450 I hear you. I like both versions of the story. I think audiences and critics had fatigue from this type of film when it came out. But it's gotten more praise in retrospect.
29:11 My favorite dialogue exchange in the entire movie. Top 10 across all media. "You're still my enemy in the morning." "You're still my enemy tonight. But even enemies can show respect."
Homer's Illiad (the poem-story that the main Trojan war is based upon) has two alternate endings, one by Homer himself and one by the Romans...
In the classical ending that Homer wrote Menelaus (king of Sparta and Helen's husband) did not die at the hands of Hector and after the war was over Helen went back to him and lived out her life in Greece as his wife, the Trojans were destroyed, the few that escaped the city were hunted down and killed. If it is to be believed that Homer's Illiad was in fact an historical recording rather than a piece of fiction then this is a realistic outcome of war at that time where the goal was to annihilate enemy peoples and replace them. The Trojans were exterminated. Archaeological digs at the site of Troy show that around 3,100 years ago (the time of the main Trojan war) there was a cultural shift in the area from ancient Anatolian to classic Greek and this reinforces the theory that the Trojans were wiped out and replaced by Greeks.
In the Roman ending (many Romans believed that Rome was founded by Trojan refugees) many of the prominent Trojans escaped the destruction of their city and regrouped at a meeting place on a hill overlooking Troy, from there they witnessed the burning of their city and a judiciary was quickly set up to punish those who had brought destruction down upon them - namely Paris and Helen. Paris and Helen were executed by hanging before the refugees headed west whereby they would eventually settle on the Italian peninsula and found the city of Rome.
@The Hollow Called White Before siege engines became a thing (where you could terrorise an enemy into submission or break down their walls) the only real way to win a siege was to outlast their grain stores since you would now be in possession of their farms and fields. This could take months and some sieges even lasted for years.
"Ah they losing"
Girl this is Germany vs Brazil right now. Bout to be 7-1

I can't even talk to my buddy Hector without shouting his name anymore.
đđđ omg!! Please tell me you shout his name like achillies?
@@justtrustash obviously! Everyone always think I wanna fight him, LOL! (Never, we best buds)
"If they ever tell my story, let them say I walked with giants. Men rise and fall with the winter wheat, but these name will never die. Let's them say I lived in the time of Hector, tamer of horses; let them say I lived in the time of Achilles
You should watch âKingdom of Heavenâ with your sister.
I think Orlando Bloom should hav a chance đđđđ
Definitely and Last Samurai
Eric Bana kinda looked Turkish but then they throw Brad Pitt in there with his strawberry blonde hair đ guessing because he's a half god but I figured some mediterranean gods would have some darker hair.
Best part is how Sean Bean shows up, gets respect from everyone and lives. Madness đ
The poem literally describes Achilles as blonde.
Homer would had been proud of how remarkable Sir Peter O'Toole portraits Priamos here
Brad Pitt did a legendary character justice. One of my favorite charcters in a movie.
Actually in the Poem Achilles was known to go into War Rages in our modern times we consider it PTSD back then they said the God Of War Possessed his soul during battle
I'd love to see you two react to the last samurai if you haven't seen it.
Oh thatâs coming mate đđŸ
âIf my kidnapper looked like that...đ„°đâ
âWhaaaaaa...?????â
Too funny. OMG that had me busting up!
3:32 Your reactions are so hilarious đ€Łđ
4:33 YEEEESSS exactly thank you đ
Itâs based on historical stories. The legend of Troy is a battle from ancient history. It was from so long ago that we only know about it because of Homerâs writings. And his writings were of Legends from HIS time!! It was widely debated if Troy even existed until they actually found it! This movie tries to follow the legend, so it has to follow the narrative, but it is also meant to portray this legend in a realistic way. Achilles was said to have been dipped into a liquid that made him invincible/immortal, but he was held by his heel when he was dipped, so it was the one part that wasnât actually dipped, hence his weak point. By having his death portrayed with the lone arrow in his heel, it shows a possible way this legend came about.
Great movie. When I was younger I saw this at the theater and the ladies in our group all loved Paris. Its nice that your sister's favorite character was Hector. Hector was my favorite character in the Illiad. Love your reactions!!
Braveheart reaction would be amazing.
Hellyeah, braveheart đ€
Itâs coming mate, I promise! â€ïž
Braveheart is a really good movie, but it's so historically inaccurate it's basically a parody
@@kasim5076 exactly
@@kasim5076 troy is a decent popcorn movie but not true to the actual story of troy
Love your reactions! On a side note, the Romans were said to have been descended from Aeneas who according to mythology escaped the trojan war and fled to Africa and then settled in Italy. Side, side note the Romans conquered Greece around 150 b.c. and celebrated the victory as avenging the Trojan war.
To this day I insist that both Achilles and Hector, as well as the people of Troy, did not deserve such a fate, since everything was caused by the stupidity of Hector's younger brother "Paris" and what bothered me the most was that such a person who caused everything. . . he stayed alive until the end without any consequences.
Rejoice that in Homer's Iliad, Paris gets killed by Filoctetes
28:11 how good of a fighter is HECTOR, because he's the only one who even touched Achilles with a weapon

The most moving scene in this film is when King Priam begs Achilles to return the body of Hector. (I especially like the moment when Achilles cries over the body of Hector and speaks to him.)
The book of the Iliad ends with this scene, and it's easy to see why, as this is the most emotional and deep moment and the reader gets to sit with these feelings when they close the book.
It was well-known by the ancient Greeks how the rest of the story of the war went, so there was no need for the Iliad to continue beyond this scene.
The whole little edit with the "sometimes you got to wonder what's going through a persons head" and your facial expression just made the channel đđ
Haha appreciate it mate
Ash, you mentioned that Sean Bean almost ALWAYS dies in the roles that he plays. But did you know this fact about him? A few years ago, he got into a really bad bar brawl and he was stabbed a few times. Apparently, when it was over, the bartender asked him if he needed an ambulance. He told them no, sat back down at the bar unfazed, and asked for another drink.đ The man is so easy to kill onscreen, and very difficult to kill in real life.
The setting is in the bronze age. Bronze age swords where surpirsingly heavy compared to later iron or steel swords and also actually much more flexible.
Your best reaction youâve done, you brought the humour in droves and your sis brought quite a deep reaction bless her đđ
Mike..I swear Iâm gonna kiss your forehead..mad hype!! Thank you mate đđŸ
I identify with Hector. He knew that he was going to die, but he was not not a coward. "Lets do it Lunger!!!

"If they ever tell my story let them say I walked with giants, men rise and fall like the Winter wheat but these names will never die... Let them say I lived in the time of Hector, tamer of horses...let them say I lived in the time of Achilles..." Odysseus
"Drink from yor bones"
It literaly means that they will use your bones as containers to drink wine (simulating their blood) just like in the movies "Predator" taking the skulls, clean them and then use them to drink wine. It was a barbaric costume to laugh and insult a fallen enemy but it was commonly done by the ancient kings with the skulls of enemy kings, prince or generals.
The line was "drink to your bones" though, which I take as a celebration of his death
Poor Nikephoros
Ned Stark survives lol nonsense he gets lost on his way back to Itthica hence the Odyssey lol
His return is cursed by the gods, especially Poseidon. His wife holds strong for decades, until he finally gets back, and even she does not recognize her own husband.

Crewmates: an odyssey... what is that?!?
Odysseus: it's an epic journey filled with adventure and named after it's sole survivor!"

i love that quote so much and it heavily influenced my world view on life and history, especially wars.
my favourite stories are, whenever enemies during, or after battle respect, maybe spare and just treat each other like human beings.
Its funny how you cheer for Achilles avenging his cousin, but mad at Paris for killing Achilles đ đ
Very biased towards Brad Pitt đ

Also as far as "Dont kill my cousin"...its war....cousin shouldn't have been playing war if he was worried about dying ;) But agreed...he showed total disrespect towards Hector
Hector shouldn't have defended his punk ass brother and Helen should have been turned right over to where her ass belonged.
I cant STAND Paris....for Achilles to be taken out by a pansy with a bow made me so mad lol.

Iâve been looking forward to this reaction and you guys definitely didnât disappointđ€Łđ€đ» great reaction, keep up the good workđŻ
Side note: the legend goes that Achillesâ mother held him by the ankle as she dipped him in the River Styx, granting his body immortality, apart from his ankle and foot, hence the term âAchilles Heelâ. Greek mythology is so interesting :)
2:45 "Wha di she saayyy " (meme voice) đ
James Cosmo and Brendan Gleeson were Father And Son In Mel Gibson's Movie BRAVEHEART. James Was The Commander Of The Black In GAMES OF THRONES.
I love that you two are into these period films set in ancient times, Alexander is another great one, as is Kingdom of Heaven and Gladiator
That weapon that Ajax is using is a maul, or a large warhammer. His most famous piece of war gear however was his shield, constructed of 7 layers of bull hide with an eighth layer of bronze on top, making it impervious to mortal spears. Also, the actor who played him in this is Tyler Mane, who also played Sabretooth in the first X-Men film
The legend of Achilles was that his mother, a Nereid named Thetis, who had wed the King of the Myrmidons, Peleus, dipped him in the river Styx when he was born, granting him invulnerability over his whole body except where she held him: by his left heel. The Achilles tendon is named after this myth, and as you saw in the film, was his only weakness.
Sean Bean is playing Odysseus, King of Ithaca, which is why he doesn't actually die in this film, because the Odyssey is the story of his insane travels to get home and the monsters and goddesses he contends with along the way :P
I really enjoyed your reaction ngl đ The movie is different from *The Iliad* (the origin story of Trojan war) but it has a solid adaptation, a perfect cast and great performances. Hector is my favorite, he's an honorable man in *The Iliad* too, perhaps is also the only one who really gets his shit together during the Trojan war lol.
You got it right that no one can defeat Achilles, he's a demi-god. He will never fall unless he kills Hector. According to the prophecy, Troy is destined to fall but it won't be if Hector's still alive. Greek army needs Achilles to kill Hector. But if Achilles kills Hector, his own death will soon follow. Finally, Achilles kills Hector and Troy falls and Achilles himself dies in Troy. Such a tragic story.
An interesting note - if you watch carefully when Paris goes to fire the first arrow at Achilles, you'll see that he is initially aiming more forward...but just as he is about to release the arrow he suddenly moves his aim downwards.
The story according to mythology (as far as im aware) is that Paris' arrow was being guided by the Apollo - the god who's statue is desicrated by Achilles at the start of the movie. Achilles is actually immortal and cannot be killed - the only exception is his heel because his mother held him by that heel when she dipped him into the magical water, so his heel was the only part that did not get dipped. Thus his heel is the only part of him that is vulnerable (hence the expression "achilles heel" - which refers to a weakest point).
Apollo knew of Achilles weakness and guided Paris' arrow to his heel. I may be wrong but I belive he story is that Apollo did this as payback from, Achilles beheading his staue. So as annoying as it may seem that King Priam kept siding with the god signs, at the end of the day the god's did indeed get their revenge on Achilles.
Achilles' Mom: You will go into this war, and your name will be remembered forever. Trust me. They name a body part after you.
The only movie Orlando Bloom has going for him is Kingdom of Heaven may interest you, good medieval war movie. You guys should do Braveheart at some point in future. Btw, your sister is beautiful!
I will defo do Braveheart!!! â€ïž appreciate the love mate, thank you
Bro what what what about lord of the rings and pirates of the carrabean those movies were the shit
Dude, he was Legolas in The Lord of The Rings and The Hobbit and Will Turner in Pirates of the Caribbean. How can you say that Kingdom of Heaven was his only good movie? lol. Also, Black Hawk Down.
That wasn't Paris, they say it was Apollo himself guiding his arrows. That's why Achilles fell.

It's one of my favorite movies ! Honestly, I prefer the music of the theatrical cut, and I don't understand why they changed it in the Director's Cut. In my opinion, the music of James Horner (RIP) was so perfect in the theatrical cut !
hello dude, you did it again. I watch a ton of movie reactions and at least on the historical ones , i just love your reactions. And even though its not from your culture, you seem to have a very quick understanding which some people never get it. Do more historical movies, Gladiator should be on the list if you never saw it. Btw talking about that horse, think how powerful the legend is : over 2500 years ago and up to this day there is the saying : Trojan horse ( a type of computer virus ), also there was an old ancient saying , something like " Beware of greeks bearing gifts" which is a direct reference to the Trojan Horse , which the trojans believed it was a gift.
Persian culture would include Troy later, both geographically and in tradition. After Alexander's demise, Persia has a strong Hellenistic tradition as well.
@@TheGunderian hi Paul , I know this, but Ash said a few times he doesnt really know greek history / culture. That is why I said that. Of course after Alexander conquest and after his death the whole ex=persian empire came in touch strongly with the greek culture.
Mate this comment honestly is everything to me, thank you so much for your support you legend! I love your knowledge on this, do you read a lot or watch tonnes of documentaries?
@@justtrustash Read and write, have taught history. But history is really just human nature, seeking wealth and comfort, avoiding pain, arguing over insults and chasing the girl you want. Basically, history is conflict and who gets what, and how they do it. Give Anna a better drop down mike, like on her own boom. You guys are great team!
You got me when you say " hug me a little bit harder for a sec and poof " hahahaha
Legend goes that the God Apollo guided Paris's arrow to hit Achillies' heel. As vengeance for cutting the head off his statue.

In the Iliad, Hector has a last moment with his wife and son. His baby doesnât recognize him in his helmet and starts crying. Hector takes off the helmet and says âMy son, never fear me, for I love you more than life itself. The one I will soon forfeit. I had hoped to see you grow. To see the girls chase him, and to grow into a man. To see his children grow.â

Achilles was mad at the world, and mad at himself for his cousin's death. Thus his gave in to his grief and anger and didn't give Hector the respect he deserved. It took Priam (hardly a perfect man, but on this he was in the right) to make him see the pain of a father, and the path of honor. And proving he was a man and not a monster or demon, Achilles chose to do the right thing in the end. This is one of the most touching parts of the play and the movie.
It wasn't his cousin. It was supposed to been his Gay lover
@@camrondirossi3249 Homer never specifically mentioned patroclus as something like that. They were really close as friends and they felt a love between each other as friends only. What you say isnt written by homer but is rather a different interpretation by some other ancient Greeks who wrote about it like that like plato in his text the symposium for example. You could be right on what you say, but whether they were right or wrong in their interpretations is hard to tell seeing as it's all speculation. There isn't a clear answer to this as homer himself never specifically referred to them as lovers
The Achilles' Heel comes from mythology. I can't remember the exact details, but Achilles is a demigod, literally. When he was born he was dipped into "the river stix?" to become invulnerable, he was held by the ankle when he was dipped and the water didn't touch where he was being held. So the only part of his body you could hurt was his "Achilles' Heel". I wish I had all the details still downloaded in my brain. If anyone needs to correct me, do so. I need to reread The Iliad. Sidenote; the Hector Achilles fight scene is the best sword and sandals duel of all time. You literally can't find a better one.
It wasnt achilles cousin in history, it was his boyfriend. Achilles wanted their ashes to be mixed together after he died.
They're cousin.
According to Hesiod, Patroclus's father is the brother of Achilles father.
Family siblings did the same thing when they died. Ashes go with their loved ones.
through this story you learn a few age old sayings, Achilles weakness, trojan horse, Paris Love, .. but my favorite is based on Helen of Troy: The Face That Launched a Thousand Ships.
Ash i mean no disrepect but please tell Anna i said she had a face that would Launch a 1000 ships
Yes. Anna is hands down more Beautiful than Helen, It isn't even close
đđđ mate sheâs gonna love you for that, Iâll show her your comment. We should do a reaction to the comments haha
Achilles is a demigod in Greek mythology. He can't die unless you hit him on his right hip.
What if all that yelling Achilles was doing to get Hector to come out was just Achilles trying to speak with him about his Chariot's Extended Warranty..
That would of been a plot twist đ
Do gladiator mate pretty sure u guys will like it,nice video đ„đ„
