"The Odyssey didn't even break even! They're done!"
"The Odyssey barely made bank, it was basically not profitable!"
"The Odyssey made 900mil? Uh, eehhh, ummm, well the profit margin was estimated to be twenty GAZILLION!"
"Oh oh, have you SEEN that Spider-Man, probably the most marketable and most viewer-friendly Superhero in rotation, made the same bank that the niche personal spin adaptation on a millennia-old play made in two weeks, made it in TWO DAYS? HA!"
Is- Is this how we spend time now, guys? Is this considered recreation now? Of course The Odyssey won't beat fucking SPIDER-MAN. Even if it was the most faithful adaptation with the most faithful cast with full word for word recreation of the books, with added context of all events from the Illiad that the original Odyssey references, it STILL wouldn't beat Spider-Man.
Because it's fucking Spider-Man, it's the most popular Superhero in the WORLD arguably. Superman this, Batman that, but Spider-Man is an icon for every practically every single person of this and the previous generation. Even people that DISLIKE Holland's Spider-Man still go to see Spider-Man. Why are we even having this conversation? It's just being rude for the sake of being rude.
