This shit has gone too far. Not in the sense that there's not enough social justice, but just for the sheer fact that it's ruining any feeling of authenticity or understanding of the subject matter. Holy hell who thought it was a good idea to cast Jamie Lannister as an egyptian god. Where is Mel Gibson when we need him? Where is any form of standard of trying to convey something that feels like something "other"

I agree with you. Even watching Gods and Kings I was wondering why all the background roles couldn't be played by middle eastern actors. However the reality is that no one would finance or see a movie with all Egyptian actors at these budgets. But there is something to be said for at least attempting some versimilitude for the time period in which these movies are set.

>White actors make up most of the principal cast of Gods of Egypt. After filming started in March 2014, Daily Life's Ruby Hamad highlighted the casting practice of white actors as Egyptian characters as "Hollywood whitewashing".[10] Lionsgate released a set of character posters in November 2015, and The Guardian reported that the casting received a backlash on Twitter over the predominantly white cast. Some suggested that the casting of black actor Chadwick Boseman, who plays the god Thoth, played into the Magical Negro stereotype. The previous year, the biblical epic Exodus: Gods and Kings by director Ridley Scott received similar backlash for having a white cast.[11] The Washington Post's Soraya Nadia McDonald also disparaged the casting practice for Gods of Egypt and said Lionsgate released the posters at an unfortunate time. With the release of Aziz Ansari's TV series Master of None in the previous week, "whitewashed casting and the offensiveness of brownface has pretty much dominated the pop culture conversation this week." McDonald said, "Promotion for the movie is beginning just as we’re wrapping a banner year for discussions of diversity and gender pay equity in the film industry."[12]

When Lionsgate followed its release of posters with a release of a theatrical trailer, Scott Mendelson at Forbes commented on the casting practice as problematic, "The implication remains that white actors, even generic white actors with zero box office draw, are preferable in terms of domestic and overseas box office than culturally-specific (minority) actors who actually look like the people they are supposed to be playing." Mendelson said almost none of the actors, aside from potentially Butler, qualified as box office draws.[13]

As an African American member of this esteemed community I would like to voice my displeasure at 4chan's consistent misspelling and mispronunciation of kings in the "kings and queens" meme and would like to interject for a moment. What you're pronouncing as "kings" or "kingz" in African American Vernacular English is in fact pronounced "kangs", like "fangs" but with a 'k', it should rhyme with "mayne" or "mang" i.e., "We wuz KANGS! mang!"

Your point doesn't mean shit, that is not historical inaccuracy it is comic inaccuracy. It is not an adaptation of the stories of actual gods it is based on a comic that loosely took that idea and created new stories from it. Not only that but the overwhelming majority of characters had the proper skin color but one and thats much more forgivable even if you had a point.

This looks pretty cool, I'm hoping at the end the Sphinx comes onscreen and the patch eye guy has to fight him and, then he has like a mystical spear that he throws at the nose and the Sphinx nose explodes and it roars in pain at the mystical enchanment on the spear turns anything it hits to stone and the Sphinx turns to stone in it classic pose, that would be fucking awesome.

It's bullshit because I'm half black and half white, but I don't look black at all and no one would dare say I was a black man. Growing up seeing both sides I honestly can say blacks are way more racist than whites. It's like they look for fucking racism in everything.

They were not, they were proto-semites. They were pretty much the same as pheonicians before mixing with the arabs and anatolians. All of them CAUCASIANS.

>Director Ridley Scott defended his decision, claiming it was for commercial reasons. “I can’t mount a film of this budget, where I have to rely on tax rebates in Spain, and say that my lead actor is Mohammad so-and-so from such-and-such,” he said. “I’m just not going to get it financed. So the question doesn’t even come up.”

Literally the most based answer.

Ancient Egypt was not an ethnically homogenous polity you fucking botards.

It was an enormous society that lasted for thousands of years and was made up of multiple ethnic groups.

I'm pretty sure none of them were Scottish, though.
