Timeless Appeal posted:A friendly reminder, because David O Russell has historically been rear end in a top hat in ways that might be forgivable, he can get hosed for molesting his nineteen year old niece after she transitioned and blamed her niece for coming onto him and his interest in the transition process. It is shameful that all these people are working with him. poo poo, I did not know this. That movie can gently caress off, then.

I didn’t realize that either. When did that news come out? I suppose it’s not shocking, and yet I remain shocked that after Polanski, Woody Allen, Brian Singer, and so many others, that people think it’s acceptable to still work with people like this. And for what? This, meanwhile, looks pretty compelling: https://youtu.be/W3fxfeDH69E

feedmyleg posted:That looks loving sick It’s based on this kingdom: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dahomey quote:For much of the 18th and 19th centuries, the Kingdom of Dahomey was a key regional state, eventually ending tributary status to the Oyo Empire.[1] European visitors extensively documented the kingdom and it became one of the most familiar African nations to Europeans.[2] The Kingdom of Dahomey was an important regional power that had an organized domestic economy built on conquest and slave labor,[3] significant international trade and diplomatic relations with Europeans, a centralized administration, taxation systems, and an organized military. Notable in the kingdom were significant artwork, an all-female military unit called the Dahomey Amazons by European observers, and the elaborate religious practices of Vodun.[4] Why are we glorifying this society again? I’m still down to see some white slavers get owned though.

This seems like it gives too much away with the part at the cargo container and the shot right before it. I don’t know if that is itself deceptive marketing and the actual movie will be something other than a blood farm or organ theft thing.

Yeah I was getting the sense that it was showing the whole movie about halfway through the trailer, but didn't mind because it wasn't something I was likely to seek out anyway. But I absolutely feel like I just watched the whole thing.

DanTheFryingPan posted:The Woman King w/ Viola Davis I've been reading about Dahomey recently and yikes, this is a perfect encapsulation of a completely misplaced lib attempt at glorifying history. For those who don't know, Dahomey was the west African state most active in procuring slaves for the transatlantic trade in the 18th-19th c. Obviously African communities that engaged in slave procurement were not nearly as complicit as the European slave traders who produced the demand for slaves, but the Dahomean elites were exceptionally vicious in their subjugation of various neighboring communities and the mass enslavement of other communities for their own benefit. The female warriors of Dahomey were their shock troops, and they were basically brutalized until they were willing to commit atrocities without hesitation. They did fight in wars against the French, but their main role for most of Dahomey's history was to mercilessly raid, terrorize, and enslave neighboring communities. So not exactly a good example of historical "girl bosses." Or maybe it inadvertently is.... MeinPanzer fucked around with this message at 13:41 on Jul 8, 2022 |

Basically this is the Girl Boss equivalent of 300. I wonder if they'll open with a similar montage displaying the harshness of societal customs, only it's various parts of this festival: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annual_Customs_of_Dahomey quote:Since Dahomey was a significant military power involved in the slave trade, slaves and human sacrifice became crucial aspects of the ceremony. Captives from war and criminals were killed for the deceased kings of Dahomey. During the ceremony, around 500 prisoners would be sacrificed. As many as 4,000 were reported killed In one of these ceremonies in 1727. Most of the victims were sacrificed through decapitation, a tradition widely used by Dahomean kings MeinPanzer fucked around with this message at 15:45 on Jul 8, 2022 |
