      I too love this opening monologue, and it has stuck with me since the day I watched this movie in theaters. I think my favorite thing about it is that it not only sums up the nature of man, but also perfectly describes the driving force behind who Achilles is, at least as he is portrayed in this film. This has been my favorite movie for almost two decades now and I will defend it until my last breath.

To see us grow and past our limitations. To see us make our decisions that will decide our fates. To say it's good or bad is entirely up to you because living is chaos but at the same time happiness.

      Historical point = Homer in the Iliad and the Odyssey speaks only of Danaans, Achaeans, Argians and not of Greeks.
      The Hellenes (tribe of Southern Thessaly also called Argos Pelasgians), at his time, did not constitute yet a people or a Nation (Thucydides I,3).
      He affirms in the Iliad that "Zeus is Pelasgians and dodonean" (XVI,234).
      Precisely these Pelasgians (🇦🇱) were considered by all the ancient Greek authors as "the first inhabitants of Greece" before "The arrival of the Hellenes (🇬🇷)"!
      Another word that was misunderstood or glossed over. Indeed the Greeks arrived from somewhere because they were not indigenous.
      As they did not come from the North ( one wanted to make us believe the opposite), they could only be foreigners coming from elsewhere.
      It is this elsewhere which is difficult to define very precisely. But the legends, which are only embellished, idealized or metaphorized historical facts, give us some precious indications on the first foreign ethnic groups having occupied the country of the Pelasgians: the Danaans (Egyptians from whom the Dorians descend), the Cadmeans (Phoenicians) and the Pelopides (Assyrians).
      Among the peoples of archaic Greece the Ionians, Aeolians and Arcadians were descendants of the Pelasgians, indigenous populations conquered by the Hellenic invaders: they could claim to be indigenous populations.
      Now Herodotus explains very well that the Ionians were Pelasgians who, after having rubbed shoulders with the Greeks and learned their language, became full-fledged Hellenes...
      The Ionians were thus a fraction of the Pelasgians people (🇦🇱) having adopted the civilization of the Hellenic invaders (🇬🇷), assimilated their culture and integrated their ethnicity ( Herodotus I,56,57,58/VIII,44 ).
      Etc ...

      I actually never saw a movie to portray the ‘wahh’ effect of an ancient battlefield like Troy did.
      Game of Thrones beat that with the season 7 episode 4 scene where daenerys and the dothraki pulled a surprise attack (and later on totally ruined it with the dejected battle with the undead), but GoT loose eventually with a small scale scene compared to Troy’s h-u-g-e battlefield size and longevity.
      Lord of the Rings was also close with its epic battle scenes, especially with the last ride of the king in the 3rd (“deeaathhh” roar), and it even had kind of equal scale to Troy’s battlefield size and longevity, but of course looses in realism and therefor in battle drama and tactical development.

      From my point of view, he never underestimated or considered his enemies as inferiors compared to him, if it was the case he probably wouldn't care if people would remember his name, i think he knew that in his anger he disrespected the man he fought, he knew Hector was a great warrior too, being enemies doesn't mean to not be brothers, the only difference is the side you landed in, Achilles knew he was fighting brothers (trojans) but his purpose was above any brotherhood and any love story ( he lost Briseis because of his anger in the film ) or whatever. I love this film.

Hector fought him 1 to 1 as he wanted too.. but he could have done what hector wanted.. and not let his pride took over.. dunno if that is why that he died. . he deserve to die because of that.. after all .. he didnt needed to drag him with the horses and saying a no to him when he asked for a proper funeral.. that was just not honorable and really sad.. consumed with hatred and vengeance

      Historical point = Homer in the Iliad and the Odyssey speaks only of Danaans, Achaeans, Argians and not of Greeks.
      The Hellenes (tribe of Southern Thessaly also called Argos Pelasgians), at his time, did not constitute yet a people or a Nation (Thucydides I,3).
      He affirms in the Iliad that "Zeus is Pelasgians and dodonean" (XVI,234).
      Precisely these Pelasgians (🇦🇱) were considered by all the ancient Greek authors as "the first inhabitants of Greece" before "The arrival of the Hellenes (🇬🇷)"!
      Another word that was misunderstood or glossed over. Indeed the Greeks arrived from somewhere because they were not indigenous.
      As they did not come from the North ( one wanted to make us believe the opposite), they could only be foreigners coming from elsewhere.
      It is this elsewhere which is difficult to define very precisely. But the legends, which are only embellished, idealized or metaphorized historical facts, give us some precious indications on the first foreign ethnic groups having occupied the country of the Pelasgians: the Danaans (Egyptians from whom the Dorians descend), the Cadmeans (Phoenicians) and the Pelopides (Assyrians).
      Among the peoples of archaic Greece the Ionians, Aeolians and Arcadians were descendants of the Pelasgians, indigenous populations conquered by the Hellenic invaders: they could claim to be indigenous populations.
      Now Herodotus explains very well that the Ionians were Pelasgians who, after having rubbed shoulders with the Greeks and learned their language, became full-fledged Hellenes...
      The Ionians were thus a fraction of the Pelasgians people (🇦🇱) having adopted the civilization of the Hellenic invaders (🇬🇷), assimilated their culture and integrated their ethnicity ( Herodotus I,56,57,58/VIII,44 ).
      Etc ...

    This is a different Achilles than the mythological one, but I do love his story. Not just a classic hero looking for a final blaze of glory before his fate inevitably catches up to him, but also, in the end, a hero in the more modern sense of the word. While he does get to live on as a legend like he wanted, right in that final moment he realizes his priorities have shifted. All he cared about in the end was to save his one hope for a normal life, Briseis, even if he knew he wouldn’t get to enjoy that life with her. The final battle of who once was an egotistical glory seeker was not fought for himself, but for someone else.
    And I mean, is this a message that has way more of Tolkien than it has of Homer? Hell yes. But since the movie’s called “Troy” and not “The Iliad”, and the actual Iliad is still there to read, I really don’t see any problem. I love both for different reasons.

Fighters and soldiers totally are to be honored, but because they are willing to give their lives to defend and protect. Not to attack and destroy. That’s why Hector is such a great hero and a warrior worthy of bearing that title with honor. Because he has a “hope for the best, prepare for the worst” mentality. The one you’re suggesting is pretty much “prepare for the worst and then go looking for it”.

      Historical point = Homer in the Iliad and the Odyssey speaks only of Danaans, Achaeans, Argians and not of Greeks.
      The Hellenes (tribe of Southern Thessaly also called Argos Pelasgians), at his time, did not constitute yet a people or a Nation (Thucydides I,3).
      He affirms in the Iliad that "Zeus is Pelasgians and dodonean" (XVI,234).
      Precisely these Pelasgians (🇦🇱) were considered by all the ancient Greek authors as "the first inhabitants of Greece" before "The arrival of the Hellenes (🇬🇷)"!
      Another word that was misunderstood or glossed over. Indeed the Greeks arrived from somewhere because they were not indigenous.
      As they did not come from the North ( one wanted to make us believe the opposite), they could only be foreigners coming from elsewhere.
      It is this elsewhere which is difficult to define very precisely. But the legends, which are only embellished, idealized or metaphorized historical facts, give us some precious indications on the first foreign ethnic groups having occupied the country of the Pelasgians: the Danaans (Egyptians from whom the Dorians descend), the Cadmeans (Phoenicians) and the Pelopides (Assyrians).
      Among the peoples of archaic Greece the Ionians, Aeolians and Arcadians were descendants of the Pelasgians, indigenous populations conquered by the Hellenic invaders: they could claim to be indigenous populations.
      Now Herodotus explains very well that the Ionians were Pelasgians who, after having rubbed shoulders with the Greeks and learned their language, became full-fledged Hellenes...
      The Ionians were thus a fraction of the Pelasgians people (🇦🇱) having adopted the civilization of the Hellenic invaders (🇬🇷), assimilated their culture and integrated their ethnicity ( Herodotus I,56,57,58/VIII,44 ).

      he's fake genius!! but even if he wasnt, he still is garbage. especially when you have alternatives in REAL LIFE HISTORY to say this about! like the character Hollywood stole his "is there anyone else" line and character from: KHALID BIN WALID.
      you are so pretentious. first these names are made up, the characters are made up. the characters are not worth remembering to begin with anyways.
      if you truly wanted to remember great names, then put your ego aside and your brainwashed education and remember these names

      Homer in the Iliad and the Odyssey speaks only of Danaans, Achaeans, Argians and not of Greeks.
      The Hellenes (tribe of Southern Thessaly also called Argos Pelasgians), at his time, did not constitute yet a people or a Nation (Thucydides I,3).
      He affirms in the Iliad that "Zeus is Pelasgians and dodonean" (XVI,234).
      Precisely these Pelasgians (🇦🇱) were considered by all the ancient Greek authors as "the first inhabitants of Greece" before "The arrival of the Hellenes (🇬🇷)"!
      Another word that was misunderstood or glossed over. Indeed the Greeks arrived from somewhere because they were not indigenous.
      As they did not come from the North ( one wanted to make us believe the opposite), they could only be foreigners coming from elsewhere.
      It is this elsewhere which is difficult to define very precisely. But the legends, which are only embellished, idealized or metaphorized historical facts, give us some precious indications on the first foreign ethnic groups having occupied the country of the Pelasgians: the Danaans (Egyptians from whom the Dorians descend), the Cadmeans (Phoenicians) and the Pelopides (Assyrians).
      Among the peoples of archaic Greece the Ionians, Aeolians and Arcadians were descendants of the Pelasgians, indigenous populations conquered by the Hellenic invaders: they could claim to be indigenous populations.
      Now Herodotus explains very well that the Ionians were Pelasgians who, after having rubbed shoulders with the Greeks and learned their language, became full-fledged Hellenes...
      The Ionians were thus a fraction of the Pelasgians people (🇦🇱) having adopted the civilization of the Hellenic invaders (🇬🇷), assimilated their culture and integrated their ethnicity ( Herodotus I,56,57,58/VIII,44 ).
      Etc ....

      It’s worth noting though that the Iliad and specifically Achilles were so popular among ancient Greeks (many Greek kings would carry a copy of it with them on campaigns) that it inspired men for hundreds of years to go and seek glory in battle. It was an era where all Greek kings still able would fight alongside their men in an attempt to emulate Achilles.
