So theyre a blood cult that hasn’t figured out metallurgy yet?
About as much as black on black slavery will be brought up in the wahman king
I think an honest movie about African slavers would be interesting and maybe open up some eyes of stupid American youth who hate the west.
There was a joint Mexican / Spanish miniseries made a few years ago called "Hernán," which portrays Hernán Cortés' original expedition to Tenochtitlan. It pulls absolutely no punches about the Aztecs' industrialized human sacrifice, and it manages to show both sides of the conflict without villainizing either Cortés or Moctezuma. It's a pretty good watch, if you speak Spanish or you don't mind subtitles.
That series is pretty decent. I'm actually glad that we got a Spanish/Mexican production and not the Dalton Trumbo/Steve Zaillian script directed by Spielberg.
I think Spielberg is the greatest genre director of all time, and he sure knows how to do huge big budget adventure products. But with an original script by a commie and contemporary reworks by a wokie, I'm sure it would suck.
Besides, Javier Bardem (who was supposed to star in the Spielberg version) looks a little too old for the part IMO. Jaenada is a little too skinny for the role, but he did an excellent job.
+1 recommendation for this series. Thanks for bringing it up, dag.
It's an Amazon exclusive, though. I can only assume it's going to be anti-white/European/male and a white woman will end up saving/bedding some Aztec 'injun'.
The worst part of the “cultural” conflict is how we can respect and represent every ethnicity but the unique ethnicities that represent European and Slavic cultures. Name one prominent actor that is Slavic in the Witcher series despite it being entirely based on Slavic mythology. In fact every modern representation of the devil and demons are based on Slavic lore despite zero representation or acknowledgement.
Lmao there's something very apropos about his quote "Portrays What Is Happening Here In The States Between Minorities" given that there's basically multiple race wars popping up between minority groups, PARTICULARLY between blacks and hispanics as evidenced by cartels ethnically cleansing Los Angeles' historic black neighborhoods.
You know where you don't see ethnic warfare? Homogenous countries.
They're not homogeneous, outside of the most superficial level. A lot of the country boundaries the European nations put in totally ignored cultural/tribal groups and as a result most of the countries are comprised of a variety of groups which, historically, have all hated each other's guts.
They're different tribes so no, not really homogenous.
Alternatively... We could just have original works instead of a million re-re-REEE-brands of existing material, and then it wouldn't matter.
But I guess then they wouldn't get to jerk off about how good they feel destroying existing IPs.
It makes sense since aztecs built complex waterways
In which ocean? Sorry the entirety of “native Americans” never figured out sea voyage.
Yeah yeah, according to you only white people deserve representation because they are the ones who ever did anything worthwile. Atlantis is as fictious as Wakanda, because there's no greek underwater civilization, but here's were y'all draw the line 🙄
You are going to get angry at the Blue Beetle movie too because no latinx has ever discovered an ancient egyptian artifact that gave them supernatural powers, but when Moon knight does it is ok because he is a white passing guatemalan-american. No politics there, no sir 🙄🙄🙄
Edit: No counter argument, how curious. Did I make you mad by revealing Moon Knight is latinx? hmm...
Lol “white” people. Tell me you’re a communist without saying saying communism. Atlantis was created by Greek mythology so should we have a black Zeus now? Your retarded logic is that because a culture invented something they shouldn’t be represented in said depictions. Last I checked Moon Knight is played by a Guatemalan so how “white” is that again? Then again the only culture that has respected the history of other cultures is Europeans, the Muslims in egypt treated the relics there as trash and destroyed most of them before “whites” showed up.
Is a movie interpretation from a comic book loosely based on mythology, are you still mad at Heimdall, too? Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston aren't Scandinavian, but look white, so that doesn't matter, right?
Why do you care about Namor if Moon Knight had the same ethnicity? You didn't care about Momoa either, did you?
whataboutism? I thought I was supposed to be the commie
So a few Jews culturally appropriated multiple cultures and we should celebrate female Thor? You’re a commie because you are willing to delineate a vast history of humanity to “white” and completely disregard it. I haven’t watched any of the marvel bullshit to include the shitty original Thor, but project more commie.
Jews appropriated what? All abrahamic religions are derivated from judaism, dummy
Never mentioned that, going off mask there. But nordic paganism has some weird shit, you must think Thor crossdressing or Loki gibing birth are woke or something 🙄
Edit: The comics are weirder, remember when that alien horse, Beta Ray Bill, became Thor? But a woman becomin Thor, that's too far
"Yes, I'm mad at this thing I've never watched but I know everything about it" Keep it up, champ
So adorable, tell me what’s it like being a pathetic troll? Sorry when did Celtic, Slavic, Nordic, and Briton mythology become Abrahamic, next you’ll say the Greek Bronze Age was Abrahamic… You’re clearly going to straw man everything with nothing arguments. Enjoy being a pedophile commie!
