I'd absolutely love a Catherine the Great series, but I say that every time these threads pop up. Fascinating woman with an amazing story.
>Minor noble taken to Russia as a teenager to marry the future Tsar
>Husband alienates himself from his men by being a Prussian loving sap
>Tsarina is increasingly jealous of Catherine because she's younger and more attractive
>Catherine learns Russian and generally proves popular by playing the game
>Possibly cucks her husband after being told to produce an heir because he couldn't fuck her
>Uses her popularity among the Russian leadership to usurp her own husband
>Plans to serve as Tsarina until her son comes of age
>Says fuck it and reigns for the rest of her life
>Has relationships with various military men but usually end well and they continue to be friends and useful allies
>Russia grows more than it has since Peter the Great, allowing for lots of comfy 1700s war scenes
>Intelligent, charming woman who exchanged letters with the great minds of her age
I don't understand how there hasn't been a big budget film about her in recent years.
>>68016506
will it include her having sex with her horse?
>>68016381
>anything that portrays white as anything other than devils is /pol/
Hi, /tv/mblr
>you will never remove kebab
>>68016381
you have to go back
>>68016506
Because Catherine the Great was an internalized misogynist and a tool of the European patriarchy. There's also too many white people in Russia, it wouldn't be diverse enough for an audience in 2016.
>>68017080
Hopefully.
>>68016282
Some historically well-researched take on the life of John Dee would be fantastic.
>tfw no Renaissance/Early Modern period set drama that has any accurate or any relation at all to the whole Hermeticism that was all the rage during that age
>>68017185
Not exactly a bunch of black people in GoT either. There's the pirate and the unsullied. Not really anyone else.
>>68016282
One about Justinian II, starting with him losing his nose and ending with the death of his family
We need good movies and television about the Hundred Year's War, especially 1337-1389. We have a couple good movies about Henry V (based off of Shakespeare) and a couple good movies of Joan of Arc, but nothing about Edward III and the Black Prince, Charles V and Betrand du Guesclin, Sir John Talbot...
>>68017586
See pic related for well researched series set during the Hundred Years War.
three kingdoms show.
A series set during the Thirty Years War would be amazingalong with horrific and depressing
Can't we just bring back Rome? They could cover so many of the shitty emperors and assassinations.
>>68016282
>there will never be a series about the last Roman-Persian War
A show about the Byzantines would be good too, dealing with faggy crusaders and the Persians, work the arabs in somewhere..
dutch assault on macau
>>68016282
Actually there was a TV series about the Catholic Kings, but it was made on a Spaniard channel.
Now they are doing the "sequel" with Charles the I of Spain.
>>68016381
You do not belong here
show about the slavs fighting off the rapist, slaver, muslims in eastern europe
Last days of Byzantine empire would be based.
>>68018936
So rapists vs even worse rapists
would watch
>>68018264
>These two noble peoples bloodied each-other so much that the Arab horde was able to sweep one away and leave the other a shell
Cruel fates.

You know Peter the Great had a retarded half-brother that was made co-Tsar by his mother who ruled through him? An actual RETARD (suspected to be Downs syndrome) was made into AUTOCRAT OF ALL RUSSIA.
The Romanov history is full of all kinds of interesting shit.
Justinianic reconquests
>>68016282
but the muslims werent "removed" by reconquista
the rulers were replaced with Catholic ones, but moors weren't forcibly converted until after 1492
I just want HBO's Mason & Dixon with Sean Bean as Jeremiah Dixon
>no definitive film about the Crusades yet
What is Hollywood waiting for?

So... same as Russia today...

Kingdom of heaven is already the CrusaeKįńo of this generation.
A movie of all the others would be pointless since they were failures.
>>68016282
Sengoku period would make nice series too.
>>68021870
>implying the fourth crusade was a failure
>>68016282
The rise of the Irish Republican Army. Pretty much nothing done on that shit. Would love if somebody gave some recommendations.
>>68016381
>>/safe space/
>>68021870
Kingdom of Heaven was anything but definitive.
Even in the director's cut, Legolas is still dead weight and really drags the film down.
>>68021915
Also maybe a Vikings show that doesn't become meme shit. Like an actual historical show not some drama shit.
>>68016282
A new American Sniper, except as an action movie instead of a gay ass weepfest. There was more action in the book then there was in the movie. Ole Cilnt's nuts seem to have dried up and dropped off

The Reconquista took 500 years, it's not really something to be proud of.
>>68021891
Best Crusade (Christians killing Christians) was certainly not a failure.
>>68016506
>Slut of history the TV show
As if there aren't enough of those shows/story arcs...
There is nothing "Great" about using your vagina to rule. Men actually have to use military command prowess.

They were kicked out 100 ish years after the Jews were.
>>68021864
Hey-oooh!
>>68023138
Fuck the moops.
I think a drama based on the the House of Romanov would be epic.
>>68023091
>Slut of history
Rumors started by the Brits to discredit arguably Russia's greatest leader.
Actually a tv series about hayreddin barbarossa would be great you would see shitload of 16th century naval battles and you could show an exotic culture.
>>68024132
>Russia's greatest leader.
Not saying much though is it?
>>68017932
very good show, nice historically accurate fighting styles(besides giant summon monsters)
>>68018006
it exists Cao Cao is best character
Alberto Barbosa here. The Moors did give us a lot of badass architecture, 2bh
>>68022203
He wasn't a great commander, he just knew two basic principles that he actually applied rather than storming out of the gates screaming "Deus Vult!"

Squared shit and domes.
The 1842 retreat from Kabul.
>Kabul is a place of splendor for Brits and poverty for Afghans (muh 1 percenters)
>Eventually a tribal uprising happens
>Brits agree a surrender to remove Indian army from Kabul
>Tribal leaders agree to safe passage
>Tribal leaders turn on the brits
>Over 7 days, gradually the party of 16,000 gets picked off, culminating in a last stand 6 days in
>"A British sergeant is said to have cried "not bloody likely!" when the Afghans tried to persuade the soldiers they would spare their lives."
>Big battle, only one European makes it to Jalalabad.
Hollywood stuff imo desu

Kinda difficult to choose when you're English.
Just one of the downsides of not being slavshit I suppose.

Henry VIII freed Britain from the Catholics but without the retardedness of the protestants.
also Tudors was a good show and Wolf Hall is kino
There's just TOO MUCH going on at multiple levels (thematically, personally, politically, philosophically) for a great french revolution series to not be made.
You know that feeling, not of completeness, but of fullness that you get after reading a great epic? How could you not get that after going through all the waves of everything from the throne-and-altar reactionary regime to the tennis court, the terror, the wars, and to end with the march of a young self-proclaimed Consul Napoleon?
>>68025998
meh
>>68016443
>Not ending with Columbus sailing off into the western sun
>>68016506
A Catherine the Great biopic screenplay topped the Black List like last year, so get hype (for a few years down the road)
John Adams was fucking amazing. Need more historical mini series
>Lead up to WW1 with all the Eastern European ethnic divisions and shitty politics
>The fact all the monarchs in the war were all related is rarely explored too
>>68017185
BBC just did a War and Peace adaption miniseries in 2016 featuring not only ZERO minorities, but also featured Classic Paul Dano.
It's doable.

Russian here. Catherine WAS a slut. Orlov and Potemkin were here confirmed lovers, but there were many more.
She was also not the greatest Russian leader, come on, that would be Peter the Great. He built Russian Empire from almost nothing, he had to westernize people who were adamantly against it. He had political, strategic, economic, military, cultural, even scientific prowess to do all that shit alone, more or less.
Cat, on the other hand, took the throne of an already formidable Empire and only had intrigue/networking skills she used to put right people at right places. She was not really involved in military or economic or diplomatic problems, men did everything for her. She preferred to play enlightened monarch, fucking around and mistreating other Romanovs.
Btw first thing Emperor Paul I, son of Catherine, did was to ban women from ruling the country FOREVER
