Oh man, as a Classical Myth freak (I won second place in Latin National Competitions mythology exam... was outscored only by some guy from Florida... grrrr Florida) and an Orlando Bloom fan, I was deeply upset by that movie. They screwed up EVERYTHING!!! I kept waiting and waiting for the gods and goddesses to show up... and waiting.... And Brad Pitt? Don't even get me started. Ugh lord! I mean, really now. And Paris should have died. Period. And was it just me, or did Hector (I forget who played him) look exactly like a live version of Moses from Dreamworks' "The Prince of Egypt"? I want to see his photo transposed over a shot of animated Moses....
Oh yeah, I was deeply upset by the total LACK of Cassandra. She's my favorite character.
