Gal Gadot Plays Cleopatra - We Wuz KWEENNNZ

Keanu Reeves is an amazing actor! As long as you dont need him to speak English..

I don't say this to be mean, but I actually mean this as a sincere complement.

Keanu Reeves would have been one of the top 5 biggest stars in Hollywood during the silent era. His facial expressions are striking and he could have done well in that era.
 
On one hand the we wuz kangz narrative that emerges whenever Cleopatra is mentioned is annoying, but on the other hand every defense of Gadot outside of "she was Greek bro" involves some variation of "oy vey, Jews aren't white so we can play MENA characters, are you anti-semetic?" which is just as annoying as we wuz kangz shit.

My only reply is "Unless you've got Cleopatra's mummified remains in your basement for DNA testing to determine her precise ancestry then shut the fuck up. In fact, shut the fuck up even if you do because it's a fucking movie and if this is the biggest problem of your day consider yourself blessed, you spoiled, entitled cuntass!"
 
Kangz, butthurt woketards and double butthurt Arabs: NOOO YOU CAN'T HAVE A JEWISH ACTRESS PLAY A GREEK QUEEN

Sickos with an interest in genetics: Haha perfect

Gal Gadot is too pretty to be Cleopatra. Cleopatra was a honker who was so good at seducing people that they spread stories of her being breathtaking just to feel less embarrassed that they got seduced by her.
Coins of Cleopatra VII show a hook nosed uggo. She was cultured and ruled (for a time with her brother husband) a stupendously rich kingdom, a granary of the Mediterranean.

An edit was lost, but suffice to say that Cleopatra was a Macedonian Greek woman who unlike her Ptolemaic predecessors, understood the native Egyptian language and liked the culture, but there is no grounds to show her like most prior depictions as mostly or wholly Egyptian.


I'm kinda looking forward to the costumes. Although if they're gonna go for 100 percent authenticity, the men are gonna look like drag queens and the women will have exposed titties. I'll give them bonus points if they include those wax head cones that may or may not have had perfume on them.

Cleopatra would follow some royal Hellenistic variant of Greek culture, so probably not, but she did like the old Egyptian culture, so we'll see.

I therefore wonder how this Gal Gadot film will pan out.

My favourite Cleopatra take is that after people are forced to accept she wasn't a ~POC~ by their standards, they then change their tune from "Yasss queen! Black Cleopatra!" to "Cleopatra isn't even a real Egyptian she's a colonizer, she's not even interesting, white people only make movies about Cleopatra so they can appropriate the pyramids."
 
This should be the theme song of the movie:
We waz queenz afterall.

Bold move to have the equivalent of this

to play Cleopatra (BTW she was Macedonian (a real one) and since her family had practiced incest for hundreds of years there is no doubt to her ancestry) (Herod was king and a Nabatean Arab. Herod's father was by descent an Edomite, whose ancestors had converted to Judaism. Herod was raised as a Jew. Furthermore Judea was a client-state of Rome for decades by this point)
 
It just fascinates me that nobody....nobody will call her out for being a shitty person. Hell the damn imagine vid backlash wasn't enough.
 
Why are blacks always on about the KANGZ? Even if they were transported to ancient Egypt this very second, they'd still be dirt peasants like 98 percent of the Egyptian Population.

Also, thanks to Pedigree Collapse and mathematic probability, there's a nearly 100 percent chance that everyone in Europe and Africa today are direct descendants of Egyptian pharoahs, since they lived so long ago. We're pretty much ALL KANGZ if you go back in time far enough.

Most black people in the US have 20 percent or so of white DNA mixed in their bloodlines, thanks to masters shagging their slaves. If an American black person wants to trace their bloodline back to royalty, they'd have a much better shot researching their European branches, since Europeans were better at recording their family trees and most Europeans are descended from Charlemagne, who was one of the greatest KANGs of all.

oh god that brought back so many repressed memories i had completley forgoten about.

but anyway she may be an isrealite playing KWEEN but at least it's a poc playing someone who may very well have been a poc and not as bad as the black anne boyleen thread three doors down
 
The last time a big budget version of Cleopatra was made, it pretty much destroyed the studio who made it. And was the last gasp of the old hollywood system. Maybe history repeats itself?

Also, it was overly long. Mainly because the studio wanted one movie to capitalize on the IRL romance of its leads.

edit: nobody wants to watch these sword and sandles remakes. Remember the Ben-Hur remake?
