The Sea Peoples are coming
Okay, but like what term should they have used then, just our civilization? I mean the problem with all the criticism about this movie is it's all like completely ignorant of basic storytelling? Like you gotta pick your battles
I liked that its implied that they could have actually been the sea people
>>221842983That's what happens when you enlist half the male population for a shitty and poorly managed campaign and refuse to instill discipline and keep them on a siege for a decade, then your own nation is engulfed in the flames of disorder and war, the you're acked by your wife, then those jobless veterans without any skills have to make a living so they take up reaving and piracyBrava Agamemnon
World War 2 just started and you’re laughing?

>hey that's my necklace you giant yellow haired OAF, no not my rings too, ugh.. I need those so I don't look like a peasant, dumb stupid OGRES, ugh.. my daddy gave me those, don't you know who my daddy is? HUH? he's the grand mayor of Alalakh and commands 100 chariots, just wait till he arrives, he was granted the authority to enforce the laws of the City of Alalakh by Suppiluliuma himself and lets no thief gets away with their crimes, least of all strange tall fair haired men from the west of great strength, just you wait and see, he will sweep you away, you and your band, ablooblooblooI kind of feel sorry for her, she had no idea her world was about to change forever
The East has fallen.
>>221843046Fairly certain a lot of the Greeks would have been part of the sea people that invaded Egypt. Also unsure if they'd be drawing parallels from a thousand years ago
>>221843360What is sack leather? Any pics?
>>221843401Okay, but it's a movie, not a history textbook
>>221843299>footnote appears on screenIf only Nolan actually believed in footnotes and wouldn't make the movie an hour longer like he did with Professor Robert Downey's confirmation heading in Oppenheimer... WHY DON'T YOU TELL US WHAT HAPPENED TO THE BARBER WHO GAVE OPPENHEIMER A BAD HAIRCUT, TOO, YOU HACK.
>>221843595My point is if they did know about them, they'd think theyre cool and would be a rallying cry to tear shit up
>>221843589
>>221842983>What is this? Some kind of Trojan Horse? Nolan-dono...
>>221843595Stop trying to rationalize the racist bastardization of someone else's culture, history, and lore.
>>221842983>called see people>no one saw them comingWho wrote this dreck?
>>221842983No Odysseus, YOU were the real Odyssey all along
>>221842983Several civilizations survived the "collapse". Seems like a topic people with bring up who only have very superficial knowledge of history after watching a youtube video. Many such cases.
>>221843114>That's what happens when you enlist half the male population for a shitty and poorly managed campaign and refuse to instill discipline and keep them on a siege for a decade, then your own nation is engulfed in the flames of disorder and war...then those jobless veterans without any skills have to make a living so they take up reaving and piracyyou mean like Trump's War with Iran? How topical. At least that was over a hot woman rather than a Jew convincing you you will be the GOAT if you overthrow Iran.
>>221842983stargate is historical canon.
>>221842983It's pretty on brand for Nolan. Remember in Oppenheimer, the chick pulls out a random book from his shelf, which just happens to be the Bhagavad Gita, turns to a random page and points to a random line, which just happens to be the meme quote
>>221843401Let's say that film had the line: "We are the sea people"Let's say next that this wasn't a hypothetical.Let's postulate further that Nolan deserves a bravo
>>221842983I refuse to believe that's an actual quote from the movie.
>>221842983BRAVO NOLAN
>>221845864They want to be protected.From what?From the Sea People.Those are travelers' tales.Travelers tell us about the world, about the fall of Troy, and they all speak of attacks by the Sea People.Who are the Sea People?No one knows, but the Elders want to prepare us.To prepare us?Our civilization is the greatest of all time. Look at this grand home, these ancient stones,left at the mercy of greedy freeloaders. The building is nothing, if its meaning is neglected.
>>221845938Yep, that's Nolan dialogue all right.
>>221842983The sea people were circumcised
>>221843046People of that time had an excellent understanding of just how fleeting civilization was, better than we do today....they probably wouldn't lament the whole of civilization collapsing so much as worry about themselves and their families.
>>221845990>The sea people were circumcisedOh really? Did they check every penis of the->Merneptah states that he defeated the invasion, killing 6,000 soldiers and taking 9,000 prisoners. To be sure of the numbers, among other things, he took the penises of all uncircumcised enemy dead and the hands of all the circumcised, from which history learns that the Ekwesh were circumcised, a fact causing some to doubt they were Greek.Huh.
