Every generation needs a new adaption of the Odyssey, if for no other reason than to remind us there is no other work in the history of literature compares to it (sorry J. J. and S. Kubrick). The present work is neither an adaptation nor a translation (in any sense), but a silly rendering of simply all the action in the work. And there's more than enough for a single movie! Try to imagine the Odyssey as part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (without throwing up!), and that's what you have here.
No apologies. A little whimsy. An excuse to re-read the original (the Lattimore translation is unsurpassed).
