The most balanced take I have seen so far.

anyway, if one of y'all is ever filing a story like that, you should know what you have, and if an editor takes a very light touch to it, you should know that you are getting fucked. i've had it happen to me before; there are absolutely published takes of mine that i think are dumb af. it happens...

Totally unrelated to her review of the movie, I immediately put her translation of the Odyssey on my Libby hold list. Truly excited to read a modern translation by someone who is such an expert.

Great thread! Thank you!

extremely good take actually yeah

I've very rarely had editors do any kind of editing of my work while in games media. It has made me feel very self-conscious because I'm not sure if I'm writing anything good or not. It has also robbed me of opportunities to grow out of bad habits because I don't even know if they are bad.

Excellent thread, but would be even better if someone could review it, then we can have a review of the thread that reviews Wilson's review of Nolan's movie based on Wilson's translation.

This is the take I didn't know I needed, well done

I think Wilson either watched a different movie or fell asleep whenever Penelope was talking. Nolan's Penelope wasn't sitting around yearning for Odysseus, she was managing a neverending frat party that attendees wanted to end with her assault, a tough geopolitical situation, a kingdom, and her son

It was interesting to me that a friend saw the movie and told me all his objections to it, and then a few days later Wilson's review came out and said many of the same things.
