The battle of Cannae, the sacking of Carthage, incredible leaders like Marcus Claudius Marcellus, Scipio Africanus, Fabius Maximus - all this stuff is weapons grade kino. It could be the most amazing historical epic ever filmed. >>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aj2O_cZlI8
>>223473665Well there's a conspiracy that when Carthage was defeated, the phoenicians decided to become crypto-jews, and what we regard as jewish society is an outer layer of useful idiot jews protecting an inner cabal of crypto-jews who have spent all this time preserving both their dominance and their traditions. If this is true then they probably don't want to draw attention to their history. Especially given all the child sacrifice.

>>223473665What a retarded video. Holy shit you fucking zoomers even ruined history. >why no Carthage epicBecause the bad guys win
>>223473665it needs something like a jewish neighborhood in carthage or cannae being discriminated against then whoever side with them is the good guy.
>>223473665There would be non-white people (Italians, Carthaginians) in the movie and /tv/ would screech relentlessly about it.

>>223474145Canaanites were diametrically opposed to the Israelites/Hebrews. Ba’al was likely a religious cognate of YHWH but they are fundamentally different peoples and religions. Carthage also had formally broken ties with Phoenicia centuries before the Roman wars in Hispania. Judaism never made it west until after the Roman occupation.

>>223474211Where were the Hebrews Israelite constantly backsliding into golden cow worship?

>>223474566Ya, it is where Jews who turned away from their god learned child sacrifice btw.
Because Rome before & after the Empire confuses the Anglo audience.Rome without the laureled emperors & lorica segmentata legions is confusing to them.
>>223474763The Republic/Empire distinction is a brainlet distinction. Stop acting smug.
>>223474199Hannibal never had the manpower or tools to lay a proper siege on rome so he just continued to ravage southern italy to make rome's allies defect to his side
>>223473665>here's your hannibal broAlso after decades of pushing it I think he finally gave up on the project a few years ago
Fuqua/Denzel were going to make it black for Netflix then canceled it
