TheCzarsHussar Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 From what I heard, history nerds are the most critical of that Napoleon film. What makes it hilarious is Ridley Scott is doing the one thing you never do when being criticized; he freaked out Which is a shame, because he already made an AMAZING Napoleonic era film, his first movie too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elden Clown Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 (edited) Remember folks, even though TES6 is years away, Winds of Winter is still further. But don't forget just like the dragons.

Personally, I don’t care too much about inaccuracies unless they are really distasteful or the film was falsely marketed as historically accurate. The list of great "historical drama" stories that are based loosely on real people or times but not really at all like their real life counterparts is just way too long. Hell, Gladiator is a fine example. Spartacus, Braveheart, The Patriot, etc. etc. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember the name but I do remember one of the people in it being there about 10-15 years to early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since both Skyrim and the last ASoIaF book both came out in 2011, it really will be interesting to see which one of them wins the race. George has every advantage here. He should win. But that man has a way of finding as many other projects as humanly possible to spend his time on instead. I’m rooting for him, though. Would rather get Winds than TES VI. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCzarsHussar Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 I think the big one that come to mind that people complain about is the movie is too saturated, leaked pictures behind the scenes show these beautiful vibrant uniforms. But the movie has this full grey filter over everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what. I agree with Hollywood and Eren jeagar. Fuck these kids. Im tired of this generation anyways. Do you know that they say gaggy to indicate something is gross lame or dumb. Like you play mmos? That’s gaggy. Theyre askin for it. 1 "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BF and I are going to see it on Saturday. I have low expectations of any film these days so I'm hoping to be pleasantly surprised. Plus I don't know much about Napoleonic era history so I'll be blissfully ignorant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point Czar, your constant repeating of a stale joke begins to reek of insecurity and dare I say, jealousy You wish you could make Edge as authentic to 90's Dark Fantasy Anime cringe as me! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
