@Humpleupagus Wait, was this not copypasta @mushroom_soup ?
@adequate @Humpleupagus Look idk how to tell this to you but Christopher Nolan is a good filmmaker
*was
@penguin @Humpleupagus @adequate Have you seen the movie?
no, I don't support movies with niggers and troons
@penguin @Humpleupagus @adequate There are movies with fully white casts that are bad. If you don't like the casting that's fine but that's different than saying the movie is bad. Actually see it before saying that. I'm not going to say a song is bad if I haven't actually heard it before
> There are other bad movies, so you should see this bad movie too.
Woman logic.
Woman logic.
@Humpleupagus @penguin @adequate My point is that the diversity of a movie's cast isn't a correlation to how good or bad it is. If you haven't seen the movie then you objectively don't know whether it's good or bad
The fundamental problem is that it's a mockery of the source material. Greeks aren't black. You mean to tell me of all the Hollywood actresses, you couldn't cast a white blonde girl to play Helen of Troy? It had to be some ugly animal?
@JeffGrimesArt @Humpleupagus @penguin @adequate The source material directly calls Odysseus 'black skinned' multiple times and I honestly think Matt Damon was the least strong casting choice
@mushroom_soup @Humpleupagus @penguin @JeffGrimesArt @adequate it also says helen had white skin but neither of them were african
She wanted to use an argument that was convenient for her. Don't ruin her redditor logic with facts.
>it says he's black skinned
This is same as when Black Hebrew Israelites point to the Song of Solomon where he laments he works in the field for nought beneath the harsh sun and his skin and bones are black and they go

@Ash_Kvetchum @Humpleupagus @penguin @JeffGrimesArt @adequate @mushroom_soup there's already scholarly writing on colors being "weird" to contemporary readers in the oddysey, homer also says the ocean is the color of wine among other weird descriptions. color names, even the concepts aren't reliable. in classical chinese there's a color mentioned that doesn't even exist anymore and it's not even agreed what the god damn color is, the best theory so far is the concept of "color" was not even the same to the classical chinese and you could have colors that don't fit on a modern color wheel. I can't explain it better just that simplistic white and black to describe skin color and mapping it to modern american skin color is an insane argument
@sun @Humpleupagus @penguin @Ash_Kvetchum @JeffGrimesArt @adequate @mushroom_soup
Colors are all over the place because they referenced its value instead of its hue.
Wine color meant cloudy. Black meant dark/tan. White means bright/pale.
They used to teach this in public school back in my day.
