"Since they're long shots that may end up two miles away, it requires a lot of rehearsal." So says [making-of spoilers] Romain Gavras, son of Costa-, and the writer-director of Athena on Smokeflix.
A bravura mise-en-scène is the only way to begin to comprehend the enormity of the globalized nightmare: this mass-murderous occupying force — serving only the parasite one percent — that self-identifies as "public safety."
Accurate representation of police anarchy calls for absolute discipline. Children of Men perfected the form. Athena's Eisenstein-enormous cast runs with it, while the camera keeps returning to the haughty-doleful beauty of rebel leader Sami Slimane. It is a screen debut that is potentially legendary. —Margaret Yang

Athena (dir. Romain Gavras).
Viewers are immediately dropped into a Parisian seige of a protest action drama pitting three Muslim French-Algerian brothers against each other during a riot in the eponymous housing project that breaks out after the murder of the trio’s teen brother by the police. Filmed entirely in a series of continuous long-take shots, the visceral political tragedy heightens the film’s powderkeg of racial tensions before descending into an overextended set of rushed action sequences barrelling towards a neverending cycle of violence.

Maybe a little controversial but i saw trending #cancel_Athena and I was curious about that. Turns out it's about a French movie called Athena but the story is only "inspired" by the greek story Antigone.
The cancel reasons are because this movie shows a group of immigrants in France forming a rebellion against the French police under the name Athena.
The trailer (directed also by a half Greek) I really didn't like it that he used greek culture and history to portray an anarchic story during a time when tensions about illegal immigration are rising extremely in Greece.
aaaaaaaaaaah shit, you are correct 😭 okay, just from the trailer, the movie looks gorgeous and with complex characters but as you said... sooo many people are going to use it to villainize immigrants further. And I get that crime sometimes can get into immigrant communities easier because of poverty, and immigrants and natives are not above doing bad things. BUUUUT the resistance shown in the movie is extreme and it's essentially the wet dream of persecution people who want to expel migrants from European countries have.
There is a chance Gavras faced bigotry in France or saw family friends who might be Middle Eastern face it, and he wanted to do a movie of resistance. And it's obvious many immigrants participated willingly in the movie. Still, though, it's like throwing oil to fire, as we say here. I am sure there are more complex things in the movie than the trailer shows but I can agree that a large group of anarchist immigrant men destroying France's streets is a hyperbole and it doesn't reflect the mindset of an immigrant in France. It creates more unreasonable fear in the minds of the already suspicious natives, if anything. And in the end, it might affect negatively the very immigrants it tries to protect.
I will see the movie because I would like to know what the director had in mind, and if the commenters have actually seen the movie or just the trailer.
I hope my explanation makes sense, it is a bit late here and my brain is shutting off

Now that I'm interacting with the pjo Fandom, I've seen a lot of posts talking about camp half-blood, the weirdest thing about them is how most of you use "cabin mates" or some variation of it. Like... cabin mates??? Do you mean their siblings?????? The people they share a parent with????? 😭😭

if you have an explanation and you want to share, go for it. i will share what i have to say below.
all in all i really dislike it.
the movie was better just because it followed the plot. no hate to those who worked so hard on it, but it i completely expected an exact replica of the book. like, where are the spiders?! and honestly, percy is the one who loved/fell in love with annabeth first cause as we all know she loved luke.
but in this, it seems more like he's just sorta there and she's the one falling for him or whatever, and thats not how it happened. i don't like what they did with grover cause he looks so young when in the book, the movie and the graphic novel he was a grown ass man cause, well, he's a grown ass man. but i do like him cause he's fucking adorable.
i don't really see much chemistry with luke and annabeth/ jealousy (if there was any) with percy towards luke (idek cause its been so long since i've read the books). but they changed some stuff, added stuff later, its just uggggghhhh. and annabeth just seems less stubborn and, and, its just a no for me.
and do not get me started on gabe. WHY ISN'T HE UGLY!!!? the actor for him for the movie was a better fit cause he truly looked like a smelly gabe.
also, the way percy found out about him being a halfblood is a hell no. and how he talked about his mom---- i wont even speak of it.
i do like ares and medusa though. they're great. and i cant wait to see the other gods. altogether good i guess for a non fan, but as a fan this is sorta disappointing. but of course i will watch it to the end cause i love percy jackson.

I totally get the low growl on ATHENA, sang by Jorge in WARRIORS OF THE MIND.
But why don't I see anybody talking about how much like Percy Jackson the: SHOW YOURSELF, I CAN SEE YOU. I WAS LYING, YOU FELL FOR MY BLUFF. sounds.
And I've now decided that Percy Jackson has done something similar at least once in his lifetime. You can't tell me otherwise.
