Why the scores diverge

The Odyssey: Significant rearrangement and re-centering of the Trojan Horse and the destruction of Troy sequence shifts the narrative focus toward Odysseus's guilt, marking a clear legacy rewriting from Homer’s original epic.
Event Horizon: Characters serve the story as crew members facing a supernatural threat, with no apparent tokenistic or symbolic roles.
