Lmao This Poor Man

Under appreciated moment in the Troy saga!!

I know everyone is still getting over the thunder saga (which is so fair) but listening to the remastered Troy saga reminded me of one of my favourite moments (musically) from the entirety of epic.

It’s in Open Arms (bc of course it is) and it’s when Polites and Odysseus first encounter the lotus eaters. It starts at 1:08 minutes in, where you can hear the chorus in the background building up this beautiful scale of notes like some kind of heavenly choir, and then they go back down again and it’s just?! So pretty?!

Like I don’t know what the musical term for it (I haven’t done music theory since high school) but it’s so pretty and it gives me so much serotonin. Definitely one of my favourite moments so far.

Dear sweet mother of Athena... BOY DO I DETEST CALYPSO. NO MEANS NO GIRL... AND THE FACT SHE KEPT HARRASSING AND TRYING TO WOO ODYSSEUS...

Gags me

AND THEN!! In I'm not Sorry for Loving you, she essentially tries to GASLIGHT him by saying: If my love is too much then sorry not sorry.

.... ITS ON SIGHT WITH THAT BITCH!

Random, but I REALLY love the fact that the top 2 most iconic musicals in the market right now are:

1- local war veteran cheats on his wife because she was away from home too long

2-local war veteran commits every crime to ever exist in this world EXCEPT cheating on his wife because he was away from home too long

Ouch

So true!! Don’t forget his marriage to Aphrodite as well. Of course the real asshole in that situation is Zeus, because he forced her to marry him. That being said, it couldn’t have been easy on Hephaestus. By the time we get to God Games, he’s completely given up on their marriage. Even the other Gods no longer recognise them as a pair, Athena refers to Ares as Aphrodite’s lover in front of everyone. That has to have stung.

Poor Hephaestus. Abandoned by his family, rejected by his wife - it’s no wonder he hides away in his workshop with only his machines to keep him company, valuing trust above all else…

I think it's so clever the way Athena plays into Hephaestus's own issues in convincing him to let Odysseus go, because he first identifies himself with the crew, sacrificed, cast aside, but Athena reframes it to make him identify with Odysseus, who was betrayed by his crew, the people he was supposed to trust, which plays into his emotions surrounding his own toss from mount Olympus. Then she puts Odysseus into a sphere with people who love him, who want to build a future with him, implying that those that are betrayed also still have people in their corner, people who love them; that Hephaestus has people that love him too. It's so fun how much thought is put into each brief interaction in God Games
