#Historian asking a few quick questions: Did Nolan get the swan wrong that Helen's mom mate's with? Was Polyphemus wearing Golden Age garb instead of Dark Age garb? Did the sirens sing using a modern scale? Can I get a historically accurate Godzilla vs. King Kong next? Maybe Little Red Riding Hood?
