Mel Gibson is producing a miniseries about the Great Siege of Malta (1565), one of the most heroic episodes in Christian history.

The story depicts how around 700 Hospitaller Knights resisted the siege of approximately 40,000 Ottoman soldiers, in a decisive clash for control of the Mediterranean.

Call it 700

OP, the pirate Redbeard ran the Mediterranean back then. The Christians never stood a chance.

It'll never get made, just like his Lethal Weapon 5 and Passion 2.

Spain was there too because somebody had to the work, it was 2600 soldiers + 3k Maltese militia and a bunch of slaves vs 30-40k Turks.

Fuck yes. So we're talking at least 3 or 4 maybe up to 8 hours of pure /ourguy/ KINO

He should just combine the two and release it as Lethal Passion Weapon 7.

I went to Malta recently and there were Indians everywhere. I don't think I saw a single Maltese person.

>>214822323
Those were Maltese, they are the brownest Europeans.

They really need to block all traffic from India.

Kinda mad how Turkish running on horse back won all of this, its just like lord of the rings but irl, they were beaten at Vienna sure too bad Polish people got betrayed and had all their land carved in half by the very people they had all saved from 1000 years of ass rape
>>
>>214822458
>trust Christian kings
>get betrayed
Amazing how this keeps happening
>>
>>214822458
Ironic thing is that the Ottomans never recognized the partitions and even accepted Polish migrants who escaped after the November Uprising. They even founded a small village called Adampol.
>>
>>214819827
The Patriot and Braveheart are too corny to watch and I assume this will be like that
Maybe if it's hyper authentic like Apocalypto and the Knights Hospitaller aren't written to be relateable cheeseball good guys instead of having an alien mindset that would wipe their asses with some megachurch goober

Do you know a single thing about medieval warfare and logistics? Why not 50k? Why not 60k?

I want to watch some christkino.

I never finished Knightfall (and I probably will now). But have watched most of the usual stuff like kingdom of heaven, the passion of the christ and all the catholihorror movies pretty much.

What should I watch? I'm really into medieval europe right now. Should I do Borgias or Tudors? or is that just nonsense? I also never finished the young pope. I need to save something for Holy week marathon though.
>>
>>214823393
New Pope is amazing. Nefarious is a bit preachy but probably the best pro religion movie released in last decade, neither are period pieces though so might not be exactly what you are looking for.
>>
>>214819827
why are brown people so weak?
>>
>>214823686
Same thing that brought down the Roman empire brought down the Ottomans. The roman emperors and Ottoman sultans kept being betrayed by their corrupt bodyguards and replaced with weak rulers who would increase the pay of the Praetorian guard and the Janissaries.

The Ottoman expeditions, with their planning and logistics, were unmatched since the days of the Roman Empire. When they failed, it was usually to overextension or other natural factors rather than the strength of their opponents. Like every other empire, they eventually declined because of a combination of factors, such as apathy and corruption.
Now it is easy to claim claim that a brave dozen crusaders killed hundreds of thousands of Ottomans in a single battle. In the future Talibans will claim a dozen of their holy warriors killed thousands of Americans and single handedly stopped the invasion.

The Taliban literally did stop ZOG, though.

>alternate history where christ comes back in the cyberpunk 80s and they have to protect him from the neo-romans (cyberzionists)
that would be unbrindled, deranged kino we don't deserve
>>
movie, too short
tv show, too long
mini-series, perfect
>>
>>214823923
Technically they did, but because of lot of other factors rather than just killing every one of the occupation forces

THIS IS MALTA
>>
>>214823686
they breed and behave like roaches, hence no adaptation to them as a people. just a bug life
>>
>>214819827
aw FUCK yeah
I went to the museum in Malta and just reading the written accompaniment to the exhibition material was incredibly gripping... real video game shit with different legions of masked warriors, Hierophants, eunuchs, and Jannisaries storming the keep in waves and being desperately repelled by the based Knights of Saint John
>>
>>214819827
this is good news

>>214824237
Movie about Vlad from the Ottoman perspective would be great.

>A small group of Janissaries and Sipahis crosses the Danube, creating a bridgehead against all odds, while thousands of savage Balkan mountain men throw stones and sticks >Once the army crosses, the enemy hides in the woods, refusing open battle.
>Vlad launches a night attack, burning tents and causing a small commotion.
>In the end, Vlad surrenders to the Hungarians and is imprisoned, choosing that over facing the Ottomans.
