The Odyssey....I got a bad feeling about this one

A black woman is playing Helen of Troy.

They tried that in the UK, with a black woman playing Anne Boleyn.

It does not look good.

Woke bullshit always bombs.

Isn’t Matt Damon a raging liberal?

No, he's a Marxist.

 

[ShahdagMountains]

No, he's a Marxist.

That extreme?

So how does he get away with playing Bourne?

Yup

Helen of Troy is a mythological figure. If Jesus of Nazareth can be depicted as a Caucasian…

He was a Caucasian, dumbass! What do you think he was?

This movie will be a transgender masterpiece, a Tour de Force on how to transition from a female to a male, a story that will be rewatched for generations to come.

I watched the trailer earlier today and thought it looked so ludicrous, so ridiculous that I would watch if they paid me to.

That's how I feel about most modern fictional movies. However, I may be about to watch the new Michael Jackson movie with my son and I look forward to that greatly. Looked awesome in the trailer a few weeks ago.

In other words you are telling me you are also a retard without telling me you are a retard? Thanks but I already figured that out.

Answer the question. Hebrews aren't Caucasians?

Nope. Not if they are born in the Middle East. Unless you believe Arafat was also Caucasian. Your turn. Prove that people born in the M.E. are. Go

You guys are 100% nuts.

There isnt a bad movie on here from Nolan and most of these are bro and dude movies. You all are the thinnest skinned pussies in the history of the world.

What does birthplace have to do with racial background?

Of course he was.

"The Caucasian race was historically regarded as a biological taxon which, depending on which of the historical race classifications was being used, usually included ancient and modern populations from Europe, West Asia, North Africa, South Asia, and some parts of Central Asia and the Horn of Africa."

The double standard is what bugs me

Helen of Troy was Greek.

She was white.

Maybe she was a relatively olive-skinned Mediterranean shade of white, but she was white. Period.

If they adapted a sub-Saharan classical tale and made an African princess white people would lose their shit…..

According to Sunny Hostin, the Greeks were black.

Sunny Hostin says Helen of Troy ‘can be Black’, sparks backlash: 'She was Greek'

'The View' co-host’s remarks on Helen of Troy’s portrayal triggered debate online, with critics rejecting the claim and defending traditional views

Arafat was Caucasian. I don't think you have a clue what that means! Arabs, Jews, and even Hindus from India are Caucasians, and they can be very dark.

Do you know that the term Aryan and Iran share the same linguistic roots?

The double standard is what bugs me

Helen of Troy was Greek.

She was white.

If we are playing intellectual game "Sola Scriptura" (a thing I like in Protestant mindset), then, she was at least half-Goddess, because her father was Zeus, and it's only His choice to f#ck woman as a white swan, or as a black swan. Black Swans were not depicted in Greek mythology, but why not? (we know now, they exist in Australia). According "Cypria", epic introduction to Illiada, mother of Helen was not mortal woman Leda, but Goddess Nemesis, who was raped by Zeus, and, therefore, Helen of Troy was a 100% of God's blood (more corretly, ichor). Usually, on the Greek pictures, Nemesis was depicted with white skin, but poet Mesomedes of Cretes, in his "Hymn to Nemesis" described her as woman with black face. May be, it was poetical metaphor for her wraith, but, it's also possible, it was accurate description of her appearance.

So what's the issue here?
