We'll likely never get the Seleucid epic we deserve.

The Seleucids were just too moronic to live
Not in modern social climate. Girl warriors, blacks everywhere. I'm racist, but that's not even the problem. It makes the movies look fake as frick and they can't be taken seriously.
It would have to talk about the fact that one of the main reasons for the collapse was an intense ~300 year long intense drought and shift in climate across Europe and the Mediterranean which would confuse the public on how climate could change without chud Republicans being paid off by oil companies. They might begin to ask questions like, what if climate shifts occur on their own? That's problematic.
So your saying that the Sea Peoples were actually just Greeks driven by desperation and starvation that destroyed other Greeks and attacked just about everyone else?
Not saying I agree with the other anon, but Greeks were just a bunch of city states that were always infighting
Frick, where they fought against the Persians there were a ton of Greeks fighting on the Persian side against other Greeks
The time for good historical movies is over. CGI, diversity nonsense, modern politics being inserted in every flick.
It doesn't even matter that we have DNA of ancient people and can tell how they looked like. Hollywood will just throw in blacks, asians whatever to ancient Assyria, Urartu, Greece. North Africa will be obviously ruled by blacks, all this nonsense.

Damn, never heard of that. Can you recommend a text or a youtube video on this?
If you want to read the actual text check out Livy's History of Rome.
If you google Scipio and Hannibal conversation you should be able to find it since I think the two only ever talk twice. Before Zama and years after Zama
You’re a loose cannon ashurbanipal, pull another stunt like in elam and you’re going back to nineveh.

I don't trust ~~*Hollywood*~~) on making them accurately.
Normies struggle too much with the ancient era. They’d just be like “why are the cavalry not charging? This isn’t how old wars were fought.”
We'll likely never get the Seleucid epic we deserve.
A Diadochi series starting with Alexander's death and ending with Seleucus' death would be ideal

The ancient greeks and ancient romans had gay sex with male concubines. They were mostly gay.
It's not gay if it's a slave, fricking your property is basically just masturbation with extra steps.
Exclusive homosexuality was ridiculed in both societies. They were bi at best
Yeah sure, you couldn't be a raging queen, but manfully fricking men and boys was a-ok.
For the roman you were only gay if you were the bottom. For the top a hole is a hole
pop history moron
I prefer medieval britain and am happy that the bongs actually used to produce a decent amount of kino in that area before things got pozzed.
Props to Shakespeare for making English history entertaining.

why are there no kinos about this
Could be made. White people were the bad guys there.

Nobody has the balls to portray the Sea Peoples for what they really were, Trojans.
Greeks.

They seem to be mostly Aegeans. Could be also some Western Anatolians. Maybe also Italians. Generally European Mediterraneans.

well there you go, you know what to do in life now. Just get some capital together, work out a screenplay, start making movies.

does it have potential for kino?
We'll never get Cretan kino because of the Cretan titty dresses.

yes but no black washing history
Scipi versus Hannibal, pyrrhus, Caesar Gallic wars, timoleon, anabasis, Alcibiades would all be kino
