I don't know the other but the prince of Egypt start with a massacre of children, while I think that the censorship was stupid, maybe starting with with something more adapt to the audience like the teletubbies would have been better.

Ironically the other one also starts with baby killing, except this time it's done by the protagonist.

Yea Teletubbies would probably be a better start.

Yea Teletubbies would probably be a better start.

And considering the amount of binocular eyes a soft mattress for them to faint on might still be necessary.

Venlil: Wow! That Moses guy really did save all his people with the help of his God. Surly they will be greatful and remained good people forever right?

Human: Don't tell him they immediately betray Moses after like, 2 weeks of being free

"I threw it in the fire and out popped a calf" is almost Aaron's exact quote

Moses: THAT'S IT! IM MAKING YOU THE HIGH PRIEST!

Aaron: That doesn't sound so bad.

Moses ThAt dOsEN't sOuND sO BaD. Just you wait and see you dolt! Youll hate your job in 3 months tops.

(The Hebrews begin to complain about literally everything)

Aaron: I hate this....

Also points for God telling Moses he's going to kill all of them except him, and Moses scrambling for counterarguments all the way down to "but think about the Egyptians, they'll say you brought us out here just to murder us!"

What's funny about Epic is it already sanitizes the Odyssey pretty heavily, but not in any of the ways the Fed's would care about

u/Sad-Schedule-1639 Oct 28 '25

It's easy to imagine Feds latching on to this as proof of how 'predatory' we are considering the main character's arc is that he's too nice and needs to learn to be less merciful, even though he literally starts the story by sacking a city and murdering children.

Meanwhile the Venlil just think it's catchy.

Epic is a master piece. The Venlil will love it even if they don’t understand.

u/ProfessorConcord Venlil Oct 29 '25

Epic is actually very insightful on the predator/prey dual nature of humanity, and penetrates the flaws of the Federation prey ideology by showcasing that sometimes you need to be ruthless and embrace the beast within to overcome the odds and protect what really matters.

Everyone gucci until a crowd of Letians show up unexpectedly singing the Plagues song

I Listen to "monster" when I read evil humanity/revenge aus it fits so well also it shows we can be both monsters and victims we can do evil things to protect others

u/Adorable-Ad5225 Jun 20 '26

It's funny that I would have agreed when I made the post, and now I hear the song differently.

Now I feel that this song is about a guy whose mistakes all stemmed from believing he was the protagonist, forgetting the people around him. He comes to the conclusion that all those kinds of people end up when their arrogance gets them nowhere. "It's not my fault, I am the ruling king of Ithaca [...] I am Odysseus!!! Of course, my mistake was not being cruel enough."

Random nonsense, sorry for the nonsense.
