To expand further on what the commentor said on the stage production on this, about a year ago, Jay released a video on the topic. He has hopes for 3 ways of production I believe (im pulling this from memory so take the details with a grain of salt) 1. A movie version 2. A stage version 3. An animated version With the movie version, there's a lot he could do. Special effects and cgi would be an awesome and helpful tool for making the music really come to life. With the animated version, it would be similar to the animatics but more fleshed out and even more in line with Jorge’s vision. With a stage version, there is a lot, and I mean A LOT, that would go into it to make it what jay wants to create! He would use holograms and giant animatronics. Imagine being able to watch as the cyclops emerges, life-sized and terrifying, out of a cave. He would look real. Imagine watching Odysseus and his men sail across a sea, the artificial waves looking lifelike and swishing back and forth. The stage would have to be huge, and it would be incredibly high budget for every show but just *imagine* the thrill of seeing Zeus come down from the sky and tell him he has to kill a baby, and watching him drop the thing off of a wall. If I had my way, I would have animated and stage! Keeping it at its roots with the animated version, but the amazingness of seeing something like that on stage! The stage version being videoed would be a must though, because many can't go see it when it comes out.
@@IvanIsYda_ No. 12 ships with 50 men each, 600 in total. The ship Odysseus is on has 50 men. 7 died, so he had 43 left on his own ship. ...Elpenor's roof incident makes that 42.
@@blueteller wait, roof incident? I also didn’t know know that it was only Odysseus’ ship crew that went in, I just assumed that it was men from a few ships. Thanks for the info!
@@willwatts6733 Originally it was supposed to be part of the 5th saga, but Jorge cut it out. You can still find the clip with Elpenor's part on his channel.
the glow in their eyes possibly represented "bloodlust", which is why Polythemus' eye always glows. He's always bloodthirsty. I've always also perceived the Ithacan warriors as wolves, with the way they fight as a "pack". Polites' eyes never achieve that glow, because he doesn't want to fight anymore( like shown in 'Open Arms'). As for what I said I was going to point out in the last video, I made an error. It's got to wait a few more songs until a few lines/scenes passed. to avoid spoilers!
