>Troilus but no Aeneas?
>Aphrodite is white but Zeus is black?
>Hermes but no Apollo, Hera, Ares, Eris, or Athena?
>No greater or lesser Ajax
At least Agamemnon won't be portrayed as a fat bitch like in Troy but a Greek Hero, and I feel as though they made Achilles and Patroklus black (And my bet is they will be really gay) just for the sake of it despite the rest of the Greeks and Trojans being white, just like the BBC did with Margaret of Anjou in their Shakespeare show.
Also when will they make a modern feature length Odyssey film?

>>3133734
Zeus is black, so its not just the gay sweethearts.
But considering Zeus has also been a cow, thats not breaking the lore much.

>>3133641
IM a sucker for good romances but slut Helen and cuck Paris is not one of them.

>>3133775

If you wanted a true representation of the period, anon, you'd need a time machine to pluck individuals from the period itself and then teach them how to act, because the achaeans and Trojans don't exist as an ethnicity anymore and haven't for millennia

What are the Dorian, sea peoples, Roman, and eventually Slavic migrations/ civilizations?
Having blacks play Achilles and his gay lover/bff is only as absurd as them being played by mongrel Germanic/celtic/Roman peoples.

>>3138101

>>3138013

>out of convenience

Yeah, yeah, fuck off. Everyone knows why they were cast, including you - negro novelty 'really makes you think'.

This wilful fucking ignorance, and worse, attempts to pretend that this isn't a deliberate and racially motivated casting by an institution notorious for doing such things, is really tedious, although I wouldn't be surprised if you were actually British yourself.

>>3138114
not him, but while north european phenotype wasn't common in ancient greece, people with similar looks clearly existed.
On the other hand, there simply were no native black people there.

>>3138101

That would be interesting at least. An all-female Illiad? I'd watch it. An all-BLACK Illiad? I'd watch that, too. An Illiad with some, but not all, the characters played by niggers for literally no reason? Yeah, no.

>>3138130
The characters aren't black, you imbecile. The actors are.
You know, like when an alien character is played by a human with a paintjob.

>>3138146
so why didn't they give the character a paintjob?
or even better, find an actor who fits the character better?

>>3138157
How do you know the actor doesn't fit, you haven't seen him play yet. Maybe he makes a great hoplite [spoiler]which google auto-corrects to shoplifter...[/spoiler].

This breaks the immersion.

>>3139204
Not a Stormfag or from /pol/, but I agree with >>3138138
I would absolutely watch a Trojan War movie or series with an all female or all black or even all Asian cast. That's what a re-imagining is, which is apparently what people claim this is. Don't shoehorn people in because you're trying to be progressive and have diversity quotas to fill. If you're going to do that, actually fucking do that. Go make the cast actually diverse. Give parts to Gujarati and Hindi actors. Throw a few Arabic actors in the mix. Chinese? Yes please! Japanese actors welcome.

Don't tell me you can only find black actors to fill a diversity standard set by the BBC. THAT is racist. I find it odd that everyone bitches about the forced diversity in BBC programming and nobody bitches about the fact that the amount of diversity they present is limited only to Africans. That's fairly racist, actually, to claim to be an inclusion-oriented company and then select just a single minority race to include despite the fact that dozens of other minority races live and thrive in your country and are easily accessible by your recruiting staff.

>TL;DR Why only blacks for minority inclusion? Isn't that racist?

I'd rather have more movies like Black Panther revolving around an all-black cast and telling an african story, with the mandatory couple of maghrebi/white slaves/merchant/emissary, than having this kind of shit.

Though I feel it's better if they don't make the character black, just the actor.

>>3148097
Isn't Black Panther about a hidden african fascist state conducting spec-ops hit around the globe?

Though when it comes to african history there's a lot of untold stories that would be interesting to see on the screen.

>>3148120
Why would Zeus want to turn himself into piss and shit?

>>3147585
Yeah id watch a fully race lifted show. Thats pretty much what hollywood/european movies are anyway where a whole cast of ancient greeks/romans/egyptians or whatever are played by northern european actors

As long as the portrayal is reasonably consistent, where characters of basically the same ethnicity are played by actors of basically the same ethnicity then its all good

>This is what the BBC actually believes

Fun fact, Xanthos, of which Xanthius is derived, means blond.

>>3148385
Means something like "yellow" actually. The river near the city was called yellow, since it was muddy. So mud color or some such.
They called blond hair "bright", like light.

Friendly reminder than in a generation's time all major British news outlets will be saying "Britain has always had a non-white majority, just look at our historical dramas."

>>3148395
Yellow as in blonde when in reference to hair. It also means golden, and is still the modern Greek word for Blonde.
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%CE%BE%CE%B1%CE%BD%CE%B8%CF%8C%CF%82

>>3148421
Yeah, and it also means red, orange, gray and white in classical texts. Also means a river with a lot of mud.
Come on, stop throwing the modern greek dictionary around, the word here is for the city, near the river, which is the "muddy river". Like the "yellow river" in China.

>>3148419
It's like 1984. Soon they will be claiming the Party invented the steam engine

>>3148435
Yes, but it refers to fair hair, not brown hair. And it never means muddy. Muddy rivers look golden.
It literally means blonde and golden in classical texts as well. It literally does not mean muddy in any context, other than that muddy rivers look kind of yellow.

As for the modern Greek, it simply means that the meaning is conserved.

>>3148443
In societies with lots of dark-haired people slightly lighter hair is already considered blonde.
It'd probably be some shade of brown anyway.

>>3148453
Why are you autistically set on this? I'm not saying they were Nordics, you spastic, just that they could have blonde hair. Not all greeks and Meds are dark skinned and dark haired, look at Anzu.
It probably wasn't platinum blonde, but blonde is blonde

>>3148465
>Why are you autistically set on this?
>you spastic

I (and that other guy who just responded) are only replying. If we are "autistic" and "spastic", so are you.
You continue to push the modern meaning, when in the very wiki link you provided, you can see the ancient meaning has way more variety.
Further, nobody calls a river blond, so the meaning here isn't blond. Its about the river, which the persians called the muddy river, and the greeks just translated.

>>3133643
WE

>>3148503
Xanthos does not mean muddy, it means yellow/tawny/flaxen/golden. Those are the ANCIENT meanings, not the modern.

The modern Greek solely means golden/blonde. You're going to have to provide a hefty sauce if you want me to believe that the Greeks directly translated "muddy" to Xanthos, because if they called a River Xanthos, they meant it as Yellow.

>>3148123
>Though when it comes to african history there's a lot of untold stories that would be interesting to see on the screen.
This.

Actually enjoyed some french cartoon i saw once where some african kid defeats some evil witch and rescues a ton of tribesmen from being dolls in her garden, that was inspired by some story of theirs.

Also, hearing them sing "Nous ne sommes plus des fétiches"(We are not fetishes anymore) was funny.

>>3148518
The ancient meanings include white and gray, and its used to describe old people hair and facial hair.
Its also used to describe trees in autumn, so a rusty/brown isn't out of the question, especially in relation to the mud.

>>3148555
Describing trees in autumn most likely refers to when the leaves turn yellow. They are rarely rusty or brown before the beginning of winter. That would actually rather fit the "yellow/golden" definition rather than anything else.

>>3148564
I am not fighting here, just posting as I find meanings. Some do support the yellow/golden idea, and it also fits the mud river theme (Yellow River in China is also named after mud).

>>3133643
Shit like this makes the idea of a race war all the more appealing

Troilus is one of the sons of Priam. He's famous for medieval stories about him and a made up love interest called Cressida.

>>3149238
Hector will probably be White, since he kills a Black guy. They'll only make him black, if they understand his role as the most sympathetic character.
Most women will probably not be black, since you wouldn't want to promote same race marriages

The Chinese actively try to hire American actors to play in their movies set in China, and make up contrived reasons for a European to be there.
They also have non-Chinese actors, Korean and Japanese for example, play Chinese.

>Chinese actively try to hire American actors to play in their movies set in China, and make up contrived reasons for a European to be there
Why? There are no Europeans whining for more "diversity" or trying to get people fired or boycotted due to a lack of "white faces" or "inclusion".

I would hate to see some totally out of place token white guy character inserted into asian kino in some corny attempt to appeal to my demographic.

Yeah, its because the movies are aimed at western audiences so a white guy is needed, or felt to be needed, to make the movie "relatable" to the western audience.

Odysseus as well.

Well that can't be right. A BBC historical production with white pe--

>>3133643
Oh there we go.

WE WUZ GODZ N SHIET MAYNE

REEEEEE WHY ARE THEY BLACK ANCIENT GREEKS SHOULD ALWAYS BE PLAYED BY BLONDE AND BLUE EYED GERMANICS

>>3156799
>Lol Europeans playing Europeans is ridiculous so that means casting a fucking South African Bantu as a European is acceptable.
Getting real sick of you disingenuous, post-modern when it's convenient, anti-white faggots.

>>3156849

If they were born there are they not European :^)

>>3133643
Why dont they ever cast Diomedes.

WHY!?!

>>3157245

He's can't be boiled down into a meme character, just look at Ajax.

>>3155956
You're grasping really hard to try to excuse this as anything other than retarded pandering. Might be time to just be honest with yourself.

>>3133791
The problem isn't so much the change of race, it's that it's always changing to the same race, if all movies were replacing European peoples with native Americans that would be hated on as well.
It clearly pushes the same false history people are trying to get taught in schools for purely ideological reasons.

An alien is cg nowadays. So should achilles be?

>>3156799
How about they just hire Greek or Med people?

Maybe even some black Irish

Why is French animation so awesome?

Actually, the Chinese like white people. They respect them and think of them as civilized people, much like they think of themselves. It goes back to Han times when they thought of Rome as another China (Daqin - translated "Great Qin"). They do not like niggers though, they think of them as literal animals.

>>3156000
This triggers me just as much. Why can't they cast actors that actually look like the are supposed to be playing the role, especially in historical or historical myth films.

I may be autistic, but is breaks my immersion.

If you want a movie about snowniggers, make one about Germanic tribes, or vikings or some shit.

If you want a movie about actual niggers, make one about Mali, or Nubia or some shit.

Who the fuck wants these "diverse" casts in their history movies. Certainly not people who like history, that's for sure.

I thought she was auctioned off, and agememnon was like "better make sure my brother gets this bitch"

Also, I think Neoptolomus was a ginger, so was menalaus, but Achilles was blonde.

MUH ANCESTORS THO faggotry is too powerful on all sides

You do realize there are plenty of actual Greeks you can use, right?

>>3158018
Name 10 good greek actors, who can speak good english,and are within budget constraints.
I repeat: good, cheap, and can speak english, greek actors.

England is exporting so many actors to the USA specifically because they are cheap and can speak english. American actors of comparable skill and recognition can charge literally 10x as much for a movie than english do.

>>3158321

So shoot it in Greek, atleast it'll be closer to what they actually spoke.

>>3159809
Yeah, and kill people for real, extra authenticity for the autists.

>>3159809
No, reconstruct the Greek of the time like how kek Gibson did for The Passion and Apocolypto

>>3159929
>two flops that half the cinemas in the country banned and nobody wanted to advertise

>>3159935
They still did pretty well.

>>3159935

Shit ton of people saw the passion, and apocalypto is a good movie for the language alone
