YES WOW, by Jennifer

I would have to say that this film deserves a lot of credit. I found the film to be very humerous yet serious at some points. I understand how some could say that the film takes your mind into different places, but isnt that what makes us more interested in a film? Isn't it about trying to figure out what the true meaning is behind all of the "nonsense?"

That's kind of funny that you said that the most obvious and well known reference to the Homer classic was the biggest example of it not making sense. The three men are lured to the shores by the Sirens song that no man can resist. Thought that was pretty straight foward. It's slightly different than the orrigional in that the men are successfully lured as opposed to stuffing wax in their ears so they can't hear the song except for Odesseus who has the men tie him to the mast of the boat so that he can be the only man to hear the sirens song and live to tell the tale.
