We need to talk about Troy.
What went wrong? We did everything we were supposed to. Everything the books said a baby epic needed to mature into something grand, Oscar worthy even. We spent two hundred million dollars, so that he could get decent schooling and never go without above average special effects. Yet still, I can't help but think he aims too high without having enough of a creative vision, you know? This is our fault. We should have stepped back and questioned where he was going instead of just blindly paying for everything he ever wanted, needed.
I suppose it could have been worse, honey... he could have turned out like the Sommers's boy Van Helsing.

I wonder if anyone has made the joke that the studio should have put a Trojan on before spraying two hundred million dollars into this lackluster blockbuster?
