If he didn't care about historical accuracy then why tf did he make it so BORING. If you want to sacrifice historical accuracy to make a story more entertaining that's fine, but as it stands he made Napoleon's story more boring AND less accurate.
this exact thing happened with Oppenheimer. boring innacurate movie, but people ate it up.
>exploiting historical characters and events for profit
>get pissed when the audience demands some semblance of historical accuracy
If you're too fricking stupid or unwilling to make your historical film accurate, than make a film about something else.

>Historians when Napoleon is looking in the wrong direction and using a circa-1822 battle formation in 1813

>Historians when Cleopatra and George Washington are black
(:
>Actors act
Shit, anon. I hate to tell you this, but Julius Caesar: Not actually British.
Shit, anon. I hate to tell you this, but Black folk? Not actually innocent
>FROM THE DELICIOUSLY DEMENTED MIND OF JORDAN PEELE
Caesar was White
Brits are White
Black folks are not
Pathetic bait
Brits were subjects of the roman empire, I’ll allow it
Godawful bait but it still might get yous lmao
Gladiator is 100% fantasy too but it's entertaining. Napoleon isn't.
Gladiator did the same thing and it fricking sucked. One of the most overrated films of the 21st century.
AMEN
All the people praising it lately haven’t seen it in 10+ years.
The dialogue is cringe, the action scenes are just confusing shakycam bullshit and the plot is utterly moronic. It’s borderline unwatchable.
Napoleon didn't bomb because of historical accuracy. Nobody cares.
It bombed because it's a shit script that's boring.
^This
It actually speaks to Riddle Scotts prowess as a film maker to be able to make a movie about Napoleon such a slogfest.
Your film is not an art ridley, your film is a flick, comparable to avengers and whatever multi universe capeshit stuff it is
>propaganda is about more than historical facts
Okay, the movie is still a 6 if we are being really generous
4 at best anon
I still found it entertaining enough, some of the actors were really good, but scott is defo losing it
If his goal was to sacrifice acuracy for entertainment, it would be a scifi where napoelon 3000 takes over the whole solar system and fights the neo jupiter-pluto-neptune coalition, also josephine is a gene spliced cat girl
Now we're fricking talking.
Pretty sure there’s already a manga of this ready for adaptation.
1 - This can't be real
2- Ridley Scott is not an artist he is a goyslop farmer and his 'Napoleon' is not in anyway anything that could be considered 'art'.
3 - Western civilization is crumbling
Its bad though.
All other complaints are secondary. They can be contributing factors, being historically inaccurate was definitely a part of why this was bad, but if it was a good film overall it wouldn't really have mattered.
A movie is either good or bad.
do chuds even read history before hitler
Yeah
We live in a Post-Facts world, sonny
my truth
Historians will just lie, wholesale, then pretend their lies are facts. It's a very weird profession.
What a stupid thing to say. If he doesn't give a shit, then why should we?
Ridley can't make art, his great crime in Napoleon is against the muses, every other crime is downwind of that.
>liberal incels make bait threads all friday night long
I go to the gym and work on my personal projects but you do you I guess
I’m going to make a biopic about Ridley Scott. It’ll show him climbing the Hollywood ladder by becoming part of a pedophile ring who nepotistically support each other and they all have to rape children on-camera so that if any of them step out of line they get destroyed.
I’ll put a piss filter to make it ‘artistic’ then defend on the grounds that ‘art is more important than history’.
The movie was too loud and had too much dialogue. It should have been like Barry Lyndon.
The art was shit anyway. May as well have some kino battle scenes and we didnt even get that
Why people love to enable mediocrity so much?
Does Napoleon do a wacky dance on some steps in Cairo or Paris or anything?
