The intended audience of the Odyssey knew what was going to happen. I think calling this a spoiler is like the
may contain nuts warning.
Second that. (Modern equivalent is Titanic -- hey, bet the boat sinks.)
Someone deleted the link to
Apollo 13: "...and why would we link to Apollo 13?" Because the command module for the mission was named "Odyssey." However, in the absence of agreement, I'll put the link here instead. -

- I believe that this is what sitewide searches are for -- someone who wants to know how the word "Odyssey" is used in Wikipedia will just search for it and will find the Apollo 13 page. Putting an actual link to any kind of thing named "Odyssey" inside the article seems too wasteful (of the reader's attention) to me. --AV
I'm really tempted to delete the reference to the movie "O Brother, Where Art Thou" as well. It's just too insignificant to appear in an article on the Odyssey. There're dozens of other films and hundreds of books that mimic or parody the plot of the Odyssey; should they all be here? --

Yes, they should all be here, or at least easily reachable from here. This is not a high priority of course (the actual article is higher priority). But if there is actual information available, no matter how apparently trivial, it is in principle suitable for Wikipedia. There is no practical size limit here. --Geronimo Jones.
