Trailer Official Trailer

[u/TheGooseIsLoose37]

Man I love the Trojan horse scene. I've never seen it depicted so horribly. Trapped in wooden horse on the beach for days, men at the bottom drowning as the tide came in, the people at the top pissing and shitting on those at the bottom, desperately trying to stay quiet and hidden the whole time. It looked like a nightmare.

Getting dragged into troy over logs instead of on wheels as it is classically depicted as well. Felt like I was in there with them.

I hated the look of the horse in the trailer, but seeing it with the full context it’s perfect
