2. Christians who travel with one-eyed eyes should not be Vikings, but crusaders of Western Europe. For the Vikings who obeyed the power and believed in Christianity, Jerusalem should not be so attractive that they rushed to Jerusalem enthusiastically.
3. In fact, the whole movie is about the contest between God and Odin, but the two gods did not appear. Their contest was completed through their believers. As for which god ultimately wins, the movie has already given the answer.
On the Christian side, most people go to Jerusalem not for faith, but for money and land.
Going to the beach with one eye is to follow the revelation in the dream.
On the B Christian side, from the very beginning, it seemed panic all day long. After arriving in the American continent, he was even more manic.
One-eyed has remained sober and calm.
C Christians wanted to spread their religion, and they slaughtered the Vikings in the land of the Vikings, but they were slaughtered in the Americas. Whether they were killed or killed, they did not let any pagan follow them.
The one-eyed makes Christians eventually his followers.
It's self-explanatory which is better or worse. In addition, in the language of the lens, a large number of one-eyed backlit shots have already compared Christians. There is also a more obvious contrast, the confrontation between One-Eyed and Christians when they first met. On the left side of the lens is the one-eyed axe, which occupies most of the frame, and on the right side are two hesitant Christians huddled at the edge of the frame. The meaning is self-explanatory.
What's more terrifying is that the contest between the gods in this movie is not a battle of life and death, but just preparing for the dusk of the gods.
Remember, this is only the beginning of the war, not the end.
4. After watching this movie, the first literary work that reminded me was not Norse mythology, but American gods. The American gods also told stories about the deities of the old world who had flown to the new world. As many students said, Odin moved his beliefs from the old world to the new world. There has not been any Christian involvement here yet, and Odin guided his followers to come here to pile up the altar with stones to complete the sacrifice. It also destroyed all Christians here.
5. The final death of One-Eyed is not to save the little boy, but to end his destiny. Or follow Odin's guidance. The Indians let go of their children. What does this mean? I think this foretells that Odin will become the god of the New World, and the Indians have also followed his will—killing infidels, completing the sacrifice of warriors, and letting go of the children who still believe in him.
6. Although the director of this film is so enthusiastic, it is still not good enough. If it is really good, don't ask for any dialogue or even subtitles. Just tell the story on the screen. That's really good.
7. Christians must be wiped out. What about Mao? Because there are too many words, you will lose if you talk too much. If the words come out, they must be hacked to death.
