@Jacobtheclipper@redarrowhead It “feels” more accurate because you’re ignorant of real history and seek out media that enforces your worldview. Troy and Gladiator are probably so far from period accurate they could be considered SciFi
@NemuBP@GPrime85 Do you think they travelled alone? Rich men or rulers? Guards, porters, camp followers, sailors, stewards, armorers, advisors, etc. People travelled. And your logic about people never leaving is faulty considering we are everywhere. Somebody is always traveling. Easy or not.
@53NS3i@NinthOctopus@pureMetatron Black people have made all black movies and people saw them. White people have made all white movies, and people saw them. Why can’t you do that as a “Greek”? Lol
@NemuBP@GPrime85 Ea Nasr was a merchant selling copper to people over 500 miles away and saving the complaints over other regular merchants. If someone can send a TABLET with a courier for a complaint letter, travel was extensive.
@ace_afire To be fair, the Bud Light boycott worked because only conservatives drink it and that’s why Bud wanted to reach new audiences because there’s no growth. Target worked because everyone was boycotting them for completely different reasons.
@53NS3i@NinthOctopus@pureMetatron Absolutely yes. Why not? And why would that bother me if someone wants to spend their money making that? Will I see it? Maybe. I watched The Great Wall and was entertained. I’ve watched like 3 adaptations of the Odyssey with no Greek people in it. Either it makes money or not
@53NS3i@NinthOctopus@pureMetatron Most Westerns are just adaptations of Japanese samurai movies. Nobody whines about it this much. Gods of Egypt had no Egyptians. Nobody complained, they just didn’t see it because it was bad. This is a fantasy tale. If you don’t like it, make one you do like and sell it. Simple
@NemuBP@GPrime85 Yet people were already literally all over the world. Egypt was so close to Rome that Julius Caesar and Mark Antony had the same girlfriend in Egypt
@SirBylHolte@Gabrielqui88217 Please. Compare it to the non diverse blockbusters of the same time period. Let’s see which approach is making more money.
@Explodeintospa1@C_3C_3 Well they keep raking in money so I guess they should aim for lower box office like Young Washington and Citizen Vigilante? Lol
@LagerthaMuadDib@C_3C_3 Make it. People like you would go see it right? So it should be a hit. Great idea. Why not just make your own movies that are “anti-woke” and you won’t go broke making them.
