Babar Azam is finally playing to his potential

No centuries but he is not hesitant anymore. He doesn’t look confused . If the ball is there to hit he will hit , he is not slowing down for milestones or only playing for them . You can just tell the talent when his batting is focused on winning for the team

This is also why I don’t think he should be captain . He should grow from here and not let captaincy burden him . Make someone new and young a captain

Who will be dropped after this (likely) whitewash and will remain dropped from the England Tour too

- Shan Masood as Player and Captain

- Muhammad Rizwan as Wicketkeeper

- Shaheen Afridi as "Premier" fast bowler

- Hasan Ali as "how did he get back?" fast bowler

- Noman Ali as uncle spinner

- Sajid Khan as spinner

- Imam ul Haq as opener

- Saud Shakeel as "Chota Don arrested" middle order Batsman"

- Ammad Butt as "I dont know who this guy is" All Rounder

Thats 9 players who dont deserve to be in team and should have never been in squad in first place

2019 Article shows Why some already hate Nolan's the Odyssey

Article: https://www.vox.com/2019/11/6/20919221/alt-right-history-greece-rome-donna-zuckerberg

Summarized:

  • Identity Building: Western civilization has become a socially acceptable code for white culture. By claiming the achievements of Greece and Rome as the exclusive heritage of white men, they attempt to create a historical foundation for white supremacy.
  • Glorifying Patriarchy: These groups look back to ancient societies to justify traditional gender roles and misogyny. They often cherry-pick historical facts to frame these civilizations as ideal models of male dominance.
  • Stoicism and Masculinity: There is a specific fascination with Spartan culture and Stoic philosophy. They interpret these disciplines not as tools for self-improvement, but as evidence that true masculinity is defined by emotional suppression and martial strength.

The Misinterpretation of History

  • Erasure of Diversity: The article notes that these groups ignore the fact that the ancient Mediterranean was a diverse, multicultural hub. They recast these civilizations as white in a modern sense that would not have been recognized by the ancients themselves.
  • Political Weaponization: Ancient thinkers like Plato and Aristotle are co-opted to undercut cultural progressivism and to provide an intellectual veneer to radical right-wing ideologies.

The Challenge for Classics

Donna Zuckerberg argues that the field of Classics faces a crisis because its subject matter is being weaponized. She suggests that scholars must actively work to debunk these narratives rather than allowing extremist groups to claim ancient history as their own.

Emma Thomas: “It’s not our most expensive movie" On The Odyssey

Here are the reported most expensive Nolan films

TDKR - 230 million ($340 Million inflation)
Tenet - 205 million ($261 Million Inflation)
TDK - 185 million ($290 Million Inflation)
Interstellar - 165 Million ($230 Million Inflation)
Inception - 160 Million ($242 Million Inflation)
Batman begins - 150 Million ($253 Million Inflation)
Oppenheimer - 100 million ($108 Million Inflation)

Considering the reported budget was $250 million but Emma Thomas says its not the most expensive and the fact that Nolan said they completed the filming 9 days ahead of schedule. What is the likely budget? I think 200-220 Million

Elliot Page plays Elpanor in The Odyssey

Elpanor is the youngest member of the Odysseus's ship crew who dies an insignificant death on Circe's Island After falling off a roof while drunk and left unburied.

Odysseus feels unbothered by his death as he wants to get home . When Odysseus reaches Hades (The Underworld), Elpanor is the first person he sees in the Underworld coming out of the ground.

This is emotionally most significant to Odysseus as it comes as a moral/personal shock to Odysseus as his crew is more important to him than his own glory, fighting monsters and gods. it shocks Odysseus because Elpanor begs him not to leave him unburied on Circe's Island.

At end of Hades , he goes back and buries the ship mate he thought as unimportant.

Note: Ryan de Quintal posted a photo of the Odysseus crew shipmates in a rememberance of last year for his birthday . Elliot Page is sitting at the end of the table.

Homer never physically described Helen . It was writers who centuries later applied their visual bias on the character

It’s possible Nolan knows his cast better then his detractors . In Ancient Greek mythology , since childhood, Achilles pretended to be a woman before being outed and fighting as a man in Trojan wars
