> [@Sibylla\_Gaia\_Delphia](#): > > The sequence with the elephants on the pyramid ramp is simply extraordinary. IKR? The shaman mother of the tribe was accurate as well. > [@Sibylla\_Gaia\_Delphia](#): > > It’s **epic**! It’s literally the movie’s genre. Here’s the problem: Epics as movies are hard to pull off and requires lots of CGI(looking at Troy’s 1000 ships scene). It is a tremendous effort and orchestration to handle. With the lowering of CGI costs, I predict there’ll be more epic movies other than Chris Nolan’s new Odyssey movie. I also predict that, at one point, there’s going to be a Hollywood version of Epic of Gilgamesh with lots of artistic licence. ---

The new Snow White Movie has so far cost hundreds of millions alot of it CGI. The Parody is much better and cost peanuts [![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/6/b/a/6baf334a19b1002386fc7ec0bcd05ec4621ab858.jpeg "Snow White Special Look Parody - Snow Woke & The Extremely Ugly Evil Queen Music Video") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WOjPDSchHks) ---

> [@LordOdysseus](#): > > Here’s the problem: Epics as movies are hard to pull off and requires lots of CGI(looking at Troy’s 1000 ships scene). It is a tremendous effort and orchestration to handle I don’t think of it as a problem but as a challenge for the movie wizards. Just like back in the 80’s when special effects were starting to be made with computers and how the pioneers created truly incredible sequences like the transformation of the witch into several animals, a first for movie magic. [![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/9/3/8/938ee18462ce749caef8038d9049bc1bd6f6c5d1.jpeg "Willow (1988) - Advanced photorealistic CGI morphing (HD)") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5WKWVyEFE4) Epic sequences broke new ground in the trilogies The Lord of the Rings and The Matrix. But I agree with you that as time goes by we will see more of the epic genre and the sequences will be even better. I’m waiting for Nolan’s Odyssey with trepidation and I hope there will be more of those. Hopefully they will redo classics like Jason and the Argonauts and Clash of the Titans with much more epic scenes. > [@LordOdysseus](#): > > I also predict that, at one point, there’s going to be a Hollywood version of Epic of Gilgamesh with lots of artistic licence I’m so hoping for that, too! ---

Silk went westward, and wools, gold, and silver went east. China also received Nestorian Christianity and Buddhism (from India) via the Silk Road. The development of currency, whether in the form of shells, beads, or precious metals, revolutionized trade. Currency provided a standardized measure of value, making transactions easier and more efficient. Trade facilitated the spread of technologies and innovations. For example, the invention of the wheel in Mesopotamia eventually spread throughout the world, revolutionizing transportation and trade itself. ---
