Who's excited for HBOs Napoleon directed by Cary Fukunaga and produced by Spielberg based on Kubrick's 1969 script and notes? Also, Kubrick had a boner for Bonaparte and specified that he wanted a handsome actor between the ages of 30 to 35 to play Napoleon.

they should cast the Manlet
>>70836119
>not casting a transnigga
>>70836626
One of Napoleon's generals was a nigger. True story
>>70836626
This, Napoleon was black because he went to Egypt once and steal all their shit.

>anglos in charge of WRITTING french history
I don't trust it.
>>70836678
Except he actually brought slavery back in Haiti while ruling as Consul.

Napoleon was actually average height for the time period, the whole thing about him being short was just propaganda. Although I can easily see them casting a short actor to play him just to avoid all the inevitable backlash when plebs everywhere criticise the show for not pandering to this myth.
>>70836723
Have you even read the script? Kubrick glorified Napoleon and went as far as suggesting that he was hot and that he was portrayed as ugly due to shitty painters.
>>70836826
Hugh Jackman as Napoleon when
>>70836723
>Implying a Jew of Romanian and Austrian descent is fucking anglo
>>70836119
Fuck that, watch the French tv show instead
>>70836916
>not Paul Rudd as Napoleon
He tries to make Marie Luise laugh by telling her a joke about two swiss guys in a brothel.
>>70836928
>a jew
>>70836995
So two Jews and a half-caste Jap and Swede still aren't anglo.
>>70836826
he was 5' 6''
>>70837039
He was actually average for the time. His uglyness and short stature were a myth and even his bride to be, Marie Louise, remarked that he was "much better-looking than the portrait sent to her"
>>70837039
Which was the average height of the era. Men lost about 2.5 inches on their height starting in the early 1700s and didn't regain it until the 20th century.
>>70837038
Whatever.
If anglos produce this, we will have a ton of french bashing etc...
>>70837220
Seeing it is being produced by an american guy, directed by a half-caste and being backed by HBO based on the script of a guy with a massive boner towards Napoleon I doubt it.
>>70837384
There is already a napoleon TV SHOW anyways on youtube and it's good, I recommend it to you.
>>70837446
The one with Malkovich as Talleyrand and Depardieu as Fouché? Saw it years ago and it was pretty shitty
>>70836119
>directed by Cary Fukunaga and produced by Spielberg based on Kubrick's 1969 script and notes
It's going to be so fucking shit
I'm so fucking hyped been waiting ages for a modern adaption of Napoleons story.
>>70837523
So you have no taste.
If you want some show like GOT you are truly a degenerate.
this isnt coming out until late 2018 at the earliest. slow your roll.
>>70837806
It's 2016 already, so I think we can get excited already.
Also who would you cast in the Napoleon miniseries?
