"Henry, nobody knows what a "Custodes" is, you have to be an inquisitor or a space marine" "But they are *objectively* the emperor's best genetic creations, and they're Big and Gold, oh my gohhhd mum, you just don't understand Warhammer like me"

(This is entirely the Cavill in my head, but I just imagine him to be not actually fash when it comes down to it, but incapable of recognising "too fash" if it goose-stepped right into him)

Imagine all the meetings people are having with Cavill where people with more nuanced reading comprehension and political instincts than him attempt to patiently explain "that idea is too Nazi"

Wouldn't presume to have bettered this one!

Still transfixed by how much Javier Milei looks like "what if Wolverine had a Mycroft Holmes- type brother"

It's been long enough since I read it (rather than going to seminars about it) that I'm trying to remember how much of that is in the Táin rather than the pre-tales

The best sequences in it are mostly wordless, and there's a reason for that...

Counterpoint: Don Juan's apparent massive unsubtlety (the rhymes! the shipwrecks! the globe-trotting!) hides the fact that he'd actually learned to be real subtle in his irony by that point, when he wanted to be

Yeeesh, "Unite the Clans", counting down to some awful attempt to pass off a cross burning as "traditional Scottish folk culture"

"The Mahābhārata's really long, sir, strong possibility for an extended universe saga. Cons, a big chunk of it's just a guy full of arrows talking about good kingship"

Imagining some Hollywood exec looking at the box office numbers and screaming 'Epics! Get me epics! What do you mean "Gilgamesh", I can't put that on a poster, pronounceable ones!"

He's actually great casting for Nolan-dysseus, a character who is not Odysseus

Except this one, this one's great

I have, personally, run out of Odyssey takes, so hereby declare it's very gauche you're all still having them, come on now, the moment's gone

"Hooliganism", yes obviously, "terrorism" feels quite new to me

Maybe this is me being overly rose-tinted, but I don't remember "(non-explosive) property damage is terrorism" being a common opinion outside local Tory councillors when I was younger

My question is, what is your life like without the Constant Voices?

You got in there quick before my "of course there's a typo" deletion!

I would enjoy seeing a modern cinema audience react to a faithful ending to a Táin film though. "Then the two magic bulls have a big fight, and you're going to learn a lot about Irish place names"

So basically Islam playing the role of Catholicism in euro gothic, where this would be a nun?
