Ancient Egypt Movie Failures

[Marco Zen]

a bunch of african americans in the video is just as stupid as a bunch of white people. The africans in america aren't from egypt where did people invent this fantasy

That's true. ..so ...whas wrong wit that. If Eva Mendez can play a Mexican, and Puerto Rican, if al Pacino can play a wop and a Cuban, and Denzel can play as Jamaican then wtf is the problem

just as stupid?



depicting actual Black skinned people regardless of where they're from is just as stupid as depicting an all white Egypt?

do you even think before you type?

the inhabitants of ancient Egypt were Black, African Americans are also Black.

they don't necessarily have to have the same lineage to portray the Blacks of Egypt in a music video, them being Black is far more accurate than having white people cast as Egyptians.



you're on the cac list after that dumbass post.

Black film makers need to start exploring animation. I've seen some pretty dope animated batman films that I prefer to the live action ones. I'm tired of black films not being made because massa won't give us money. Animation is cheaper and we could get great black actors to do the voices.

...anyways when they get Angelina Jolie to play Cleopatra or Nefertari, I can only imagine the black-lash

Will Smith is supposedly going to be in some movie about a pharoah

The black lash won't matter. The more we go against it the more they'll hype it up and love it. Guarantee she'll rack up on awards and honors for her performance as cleopatra.

That's how cacs are.

They could reboot Malcolm X and cast Robert Downey Jr as Malcolm and cacs would

oh yeah, 10000 BC, I forgot that movie ever existed, let alone remembering Roland Emmerich directed it, caught a few minutes of it on TV before, one of the worst movies I've ever seen

african americans' aren't from egypt by the time africans were being taken for slaves to north america egypt was already a muslim caliphate for like 600 years. Before that it was ruled by byzantines and before that greeks and egyptians etc.. There is never a period in history where west or central africans rule egypt and the people who were taken from west and central african tribes to be sent as slaves weren't from egypt. The peopel in east africa aren't he same as the people from the west the same as a person from wales isn't the same as a person from moscow even though they may look vaugly similar(even though they really don't if you have eyes). The fantasy is that the tribal people who were taken as slaves from west and central/south africa were pharoahs and somehow ruled all over africa including egypt 4000 years ago. That is obviously false and we know those tribes didn't start migrating anywhere outside of their native land until like the 6-10 century. The main reason for this i think is that people feel that the west african culture is in some way inferior to a culture who stacks massive rocks with slave labor. They forget which one still exists.

How would you feel if they cast a bunch of dark skinned Arabs instead? Would that be a fair compromise?

This how bad "white washing" is in Hollywood. An all black tribe that just so happens to have a white leader :outbackcac:
