When I read "The Trojan Horse", by Virgil, I was fascinated that it connected to a modern day TV show episode. In "The Trojan Horse", the Greeks brought over a giant wooden horse to the Trojans. Little did the Trojans know that some of the Greek army were hiding in the horse. They came out during the night and attacked the Trojans.
Same as in the original version, I-Carly's Spencer, goes to prison to help the prisoners make an art project. They decide on making a huge pair of pants. One day, Carly, Sam, and Freddy come home from school. They're all just casually talking, when all of a sudden, 2 prisoners come out of the pair of pants. They escaped from prison through the pair of pants. Freddy, Carly, and Sam all get duck taped to chairs.
Some similarities between I-Carly and "The Trojan Horse", are the fact that they both had people coming out of a large object for a bad reason. In "The Trojan Horse", army from the Greeks came out of a giant horse and killed the Trojans at night and killed them so therefore the war was done. In I-Carly, prisoners escaped out of giant pair of pants into Carly's house. The differences are that in I-Carly the prisoners helped Spencer make the giant pair of pants. In "The Trojan Horse", the Trojans didn't have any idea that the Greek army was in the giant horse.
I though it was a good remake because it was funny. I really didn't even realize it was way back from the mythological time until Ms.Hanson said something. It was funny because of the fact that it was a giant pair of pants.
