I feel like there needs to be a movie about the Norman Conquest of England from the perspective of an Anglo-Saxon foot soldier.
>>
>>221265596
Norman conquest was pure luck. Everything went William's way and it shouldn't have gone down like that

But with a pajeet playing the lead role.

There, I saved you the trouble of looking up the wikipedia entry.
>>
>>221265631
Yes, exactly. I curse William's luck every time I write or speak some shitty French loanword. Old English>>>everything after. Dutch and English should be mutually intelligible.

Barely any ancient history movies have been made. So much that could be done that'd be cool. But no we need more WW2 le bad flicks.

Just within the past year or so I went down this rabbithole of the "Royal Bloodline" of England.
For most of my life I'd always figured it was one huge fucking family, probably branched out to cousins or second cousins or other obscure relatives at some point, but all related.
Turns out no, there were some points in the blood line that just fucking died out because of disease or murder or having no kids, so the royal lineage had to get passed down to strangers who were sort of vaguely related by marriage, or someone related to someone else who'd been married in the royal family a generation before.
Nothing wrong with it, but I wasn't expecting it to be so fucking messy. It was kinda neat.

I didn't know what you were babbling about with >221267096 so I turned to heuristic reasoning
>>
>>221265596
You can see >>221265631 here and >>221266836 here why there's been no such movie or show: Anglofaggots can't handle the fact they're the lumpenprole underlings of French nobility with a German king, and unlike with the Viking invasions there's no grand redemption narrative to base shitty historical fiction books on like there was with Alfred to salve their wounded pride. The Normans invaded, they won, they wiped their arses with Anglo-Saxon culture, and the Proud Stock of England let them.

Now they're reduced to NORF FC Man, dimwitted cucks to Farage The Banker and the other toff pretending to be different to him, and an ever-dwindling band of puce-faced Orangemen bussing themselves frantically all over Scotland and Northern Ireland every summer so their sad little marching band parades don't look even more pathetic because nobody local goes anymore.

Conquered for their French and German masters. Because you're good little peasants who knuckle your foreheads and doff your caps and toddle off to die for your betters when instructed.

The Norman conquest was a good thing and I’m tired of pretending it wasn’t. The Godwinsons were low-IQ psychopaths who aligned themselves with whoever would give them the most power and land - most of the old English houses deserved to be deposed. The concept of a unified England was so recent that if not for the conquest I’m certain there would’ve imploded at the first chance it got, especially given how vague inference laws were. And if not for the Hundred Years War - a direct consequence of the Conquest - we likely wouldn’t have ever left our miserable little island and put the World under a British boot. The worst thing about the conquest was that a bunch of rebellious Danes in Yorkshire got btfo’ed, something the English had been trying to do for decades by this point anyway.

That's how all royalty works. It's a complete sham. The "Bloodline" shit is just for the plebs. And that's just the it went down peacefully, Sometimes you get a random Welsh mercenary showing up who kills the King and dares anyone else to do anything about it. "The throne belongs to the man with the smallest claim and the largest army".

Anglo-Saxon England may not have been a utopia, but it's incredible how the Normans basically overnight turned a place whose population was primarily made of free men with the right to bear arms and social mobility, into a rigid racial caste system where the bulk of the population was little more than slaves.

Mongoloid Chimaman behavior.

>rigid racial caste system where the bulk of the population was little more than slaves

This is based and Europilled. No wonder, then, that Anglos and mongoloids have always been natural allies.

This is how you know the argument was wearing thin, when you realized after the normans no dramatic changes occurred until the modern day
