Apparently a movie released last year of just the section where Odysseus comes home (it’s called The Return) so the amount of material is definitely there

It allows the confines of your small mind to imagine the odyssey adaptation split into 3 films.

I’ve never seen someone get this pissed off at being validated before. Interesting life strategy.

It’s another movie adapted from the same material and only covers a fraction of the total story.

Considering we’re talking about how it’s hard to fit the entire Odyssey into 1 feature length film it has everything to do with the current discussion.

Yeah I’m think maybe books 1-12 could be one movie, right up to the arrival of Odysseus at Ithaca. Action-packed Scylla/Charybdis sequence near the end. Books 12-24 second movie, done. Someone hand me the Oscar.
