But I guess the truth is probably that it might be good if you actually do good research on it.
And yes, you also have to be a good storyteller.
And I guess that might apply to most mythology stuff.
Like I could probably write a short story based on something from Norse mythology and have that story be trash.
Even though I recently read a Danish comic book series based on Norse mythology and I kinda like that one.
I guess one reason I like it is because of the nostalgia of having read a few of those comics as a child (and also watched the animated movie adaptation a few times back then)
That comic series does have some creative liberties though.
And no, I'm not trying to say that only Nordic people should make that sort of stuff.
Like I wouldn't mind reading a Japanese manga based on it or if some kpop group had a song based on it.
I have sometimes been like "Marvel's Thor is trash", despite the fact that I have only watched ONE of these Thor movies and only watched a little bit of the first one.
And I remember one time in college, when we were learning about Norse mythology that one of my classmates asked the teacher if we could watch the Thor movie, which my teacher responded with "not that American shit".
Ironically, that Danish comic series did actually have a Marvel Thor reference in one of the comics.
But well... sometimes when Hollywood makes movies based on some other country's mythology, it probably has a lot of inaccuracies and stuff. (the sort of inaccuracies that would probably make people from those countries cringe)
Okay, this thread is pretty much a midnight thought.
