Symbolic of a Don Juan

[lebRambo]

hey guys.

Has anyone seen the movie Troy? Remember Achilles, the brad pitt character? THAT is what I picture a Don Juan to be, EXACTLY! He is extremely powerful, and not subservient to someone who claims to be his king. he gives respect where it is due, and punishes those who disrespect him. One of the best lines I think in the movie is when him and his little group of elite warriors are about to land on the shore of Troy and he says:

"We are lions! Let none forget how menacing we are!"

Achilles was a real man. He lived like a real man and died like a real man. Regardless whether or not there actually was an achilles, the message is still the same.

Another movie was Gangs of New York. Bill the Butcher, Priest Vallon and Amsterdam Vallon are pretty close to what a man is supposed to be.


Any other movies or characters that inspire this in you?

achilles is fictional. he was made out to be an athletic womanizer. you got it all wrong weakling.

you know who the real man was?

it wasn't orlando bloom, or that old king. but it was that guy who played orlando bloom's older brother (the one with the beard) if you think that the random rap star is a DJ you got problems. He cared for people and he also was a great fighter, too bad he got his ass served by Achilles.

You know what? The brother is just as fictional as Achilles. But that's not the point. Achilles doesn't give a **** whereas the brother is being politically correct. They would both attract women but in my opinion, the brother would be considered relationship material. I think if you want to label them, the brother would be a DJ and Achilles would be a bad guy or a jerk.

but the reason why achilles is awesome is that he doesn't take sh!t from that king dude, or ANYONE.

Achilles is a petulant baby. He sulks because he feels that he is not given the right slave woman as part of his booty. In doing so, his best friend is killed and his side, the Greeks nearly lose their seige. All over a slave woman. He unjustly wanted something and went off and sulked like a little child.
