Watching this movie in Dr. Talmage's class was fun-- but to listen to the similarities, and differences, between this movie and the Odyssey was phenomenal!!!
Like Everett and his wife, like Odysseus and his wife, are separated by this adventure for nothing. But when he comes home instead of him destroying the suitors, he gets beat up by him.
The cylops character is defeated by the witty men, whereas in this movie "Big Dan" the cyclops character outsmarts the rest of the men and in the end gets smashed to death, instead of losing an eye like you would think he would.
Pete gets turned into a frog instead of a pig.
George "Baby-face"?? Maybe killing the cows? I don't know...
Anyway, watch it once or twice through and try to spot all of the mock similarities!!
