a little spiritual choice

"Son of Zeus"

quoted Feng Tang's sentence, "I have decided what I want to do, I have decided what I want to sleep, I am a middle-aged man, and I am the pillar of the country."

To quote a word from The Vampire Diaries, sire bound.

This film is similar to all epic films, in which the heroine has nothing or is reborn from ashes. The list includes Maximus, King Arthur, Zhuge Liang, and many others. Behind this, it is actually a choice, willing to make silly trial and error for some spiritual things, willing to go against rational thinking for some pursuit of preferences or reputation principles.

Pick two to talk about, one is the military advisor who stretched his arms to meet his fate twice. This character feels familiar. The director explained through him that people can change fate. The second is the protagonist who is arrogant and unparalleled. He can't help but think of the overlord, "Since Xiang Yu refuses to cross Jiangdong so far", the director said, man is sure to conquer the sky, and he can also accept his fate (the first soldier to throw a shield).

In our life, there are repetitions and fresh days. But there is always a thick or thin line, from the depths of the heart, pulling the choice, left and right actions, affecting the character, and delineating the fate.

Hercules quotes

  • Iolaus: General Sitacles, perhaps you would care to inspect the armour of Hercules?

    Sitacles: [Tries on the armour] Leather armour? We will be skewered like pigs.

    [Turns as Tydeus strikes him with an axe]

    Iolaus: Linothorax. Hewn from the skin of the Erymanthean boar. It's indestructible.

    Man in crowd: Wait. If it's indestructible, how did Hercules cut It off the boar?

    Iolaus: He used an indestructible blade.

  • [first lines]

    Amphiaraus: ou think you know the truth about him? You know nothing. His father was Zeus. The Zeus. King of the gods. His mother, Alcmene, a mortal woman. Together, they had a boy. Half human, half god. But Zeus' queen, Hera, saw this bastard child as an insult, a living reminder of her husband's infidelity. Alcmene named the boy Hercules, which means glory of Hera, but this failed to appease the goddess. She wanted him dead. Luckily, he took after his father. Once he reached manhood, the gods commanded him to perform Twelve Labors, twelve dangerous missions. If he completed them all and survived, Hera agreed to finally let him live in peace. He fought the Lernean Hydra! He battled the Etymanthean Boar! But his greatest Labor was the Nemean Lion. This was no ordinary beast. It had a hide so tough, no weapon could penetrate it. But even this monster was no match for the son of Zeus...
