A scene from Troy 2004
Agamemnon

Good day for the crows.

Triopas

I told you yesterday and I'll tell you again today. Remove your army from my land.

Agamemnon

I like your land. I think we'll stay. I like your soldiers too. they fought bravely yesterday; not well but bravely.

Triopas

They won't fight for you.

Agamemnon

That's what the Mycenaeans said. And the Arcadians. And the Epeians. Now, they all fight for me.

Triopas

You can't have the whole world, Agamemnon. It's too big, even for you.

Agamemnon

I don't want to watch another massacre. Let's settle this war in the old manner, your best fighter against my best.

Triopas

And if my man wins?

Agamemnon

We'll leave Thessaly for good.

Triopas

Boagrius!

Agamemnon

[Boagrius emerges from the cheering Thessalian army; a giant of a man with immense strength] [Smiling with confidence]

Achilles!

Triopas

[Achilles does not appear; Agamemnon's army remains silent. Agamemnon's smile fades while one forms on Triopas' face]

Boagrius has this effect on many heroes.

Agamemnon

Careful who you insult, old king!
