    Extrapolate to a sufficient level of granularity and every story can be Campbell's Hero's Journey and every protagonist is the Hero with a Thousand Faces.

    Just like in IP law, it's not the idea it's the expression that what matters. I let myself be swept away in the spectacle of Endgame, but I still criticized it in the spoiler thread because there were issues.

    It's one cast because it's all one big interwoven narrative. Cap and Iron Man both had complete beginning to end narratives.

    I mean the gut of my argument is the next line that you cut out.

    it's not the idea it's the expression that what matters
    Like I'd read a book called Larry Gardener and the Adventures in Pigwortz Castle if it was good enough.

    well the intro to your argument is motley on head retarded and laughable wrong, Campbell's monomyth doesn't provide accurate analysis of the classical myths from which his theory is derived nonetheless the far less traditional and far more structurally creative narratives being churned out in a post-postmodern world

    look cunt the Greeks only ever wrote two books and if you stretch the parameters to the breaking point you can fit Odysseus into the ill-fitting archetype by stuffing him down into it like stuffing a fat bitch into a size 3 but Achilles' happy funtimes warcrimes journal has fuck all to do with Campbell's template

    i can see how if you only watch superhero films and unsubverted Star Warses you'd think that's the only narrative structure in play but there are other stories being told in different manners

    This is a thread for unpopular opinions, not opinions about old ass books that arent as good as Harry Potter.

    Do you have a tattoo related to any Greek myth or story? I think not. Checkmate, nerds.
