It's so much easier to write Nimue as a jealous, treacherous student who used her wiles against Merlin than to engage with their differences in age and power, Merlin's facilitation of the rape of Igrain; to grapple with a society that feared female power & denied them teaching.
Dude. I’m a published author. I’ve won several awards. I’m also a critic, and part of criticism is engaging with public discourse. If Snyder’s Arthurian film idea is ready enough to merit journalistic attention, it’s fair game for critical discussion.

Lol okay. That was entirely not the point, but if it makes you feel better, then sure. You seem to have missed the part where he said an “Arthurian concept” instead of a straight up Arthurian story though. But great discourse

I already made up my mind that whatever you write is seriously gonna suck though, and no one in Hollywood would ever even consider putting it on screen... cause that’s how criticism works, “as a form of artistic engagement,” right?

Yeah, actually. And just like Snyder doesn’t have to care about my opinion, I don’t have to care about yours.
