I think GOE just became one of those "hey, let's all beat up on this film" movies (Beatty's "Dick Tracy" also got that kind of reception) far beyond its actual weaknesses.

Know what the sad part is? When watching this "behind the scenes" footage the slower parts of the movie is what looks best. The costumes, the props, the actors and even extras. the sets had heart. Its the action, the monsters and the "Gods" SFX that couldnt be made good enough for the budget they had. The humans needed a larger part, the gods needed a smaller part. It needed to be more Egyptian LOTR and less Egyptian Transformers. The "diversity" issue was unfair media mob behavior from the start. Remember the ancient Ptolemaic dynasty of Egypt was greek while the version of Egypt the media mob referred to was created when the armies of Islam took over northern Africa circa year 600 several hundred years later. The media mob did the same crap against another movie complaining about Israeli actress Gal Gadot playing Cleopatra despite her being born next door to where the real Cleopatra lived. This demonstrates it was never about "whitewashing" anything. It was about erasing the Greek-Roman parts of Egyptian history.

It's a shame because not only is Proyas a fascinating, visionary director, but the historical epic genre is all but extinct in today's austere climate of IP and legacy franchise domination (to me it's criminal that The Northman wasn't a box office success). There is so much material to mine from Egyptian history and mythology, but I think it's unlikely that's we'll get the Egyptian epic of our dreams any time soon (if ever). Also, I'm convinced that there are better cut of Exodus: Gods and Kings and Noah out there.

@egyptiandoge2 жыл бұрын
Honestly, this movie’s casting is the least of its concerns. Its biggest problem is the plot overall. It suffers from a plot that keeps resetting its momentum, making up new MacGuffins and plotpoints on the fly without proper set ups from before. And the mortal plot line of Bek feels really awkwardly tacked on, wedged in between the plot of Horus’ growth and development. It also doesn’t help that Horus is supposed to be born AFTER Set decided to murder his dad Osiris for shagging with Set’s wife leading to the birth Horus’ older half brother, Anubis. They could easily tiptoe around the problem altogether by centering the plot focus on Horus’ growth and his relationship with his brother Anubis as they fight to depose Set from the throne and all of them are animated based on how the Egyptian portrayed the gods in hieroglyphs and wall paintings. Simple plot, straight forward goal, but rooms for setting up all the Chekhov’s Guns from the get go.

This movie made me appreciate gold as I usually hate the color, moreover I think it would've made it even better if they gave more historically accuracies to the traditional myths blended smoothly with modern originatilaty. I like the thief making a deal with a god in-exchange to revive the mortal's lover; even Horus admitted that its impossible against the rules. Whitewashing is annoying accusation. We can do whatever to fictional characters, making Thor black doesn't do anything, because despite skin color he would still talk and behave of the Norse culture. Superman as a blackman would still be adopted by farmer parents and talk similar to them. Being born with skin color genetics doesn't automatically make you speak in a certain way. 'certain way' is technique, techniques are taught and/or learnt. You're not born with techniques, you're born with instincts that leads to learning techniques.

You could have saved YOUR editor a ton of effort by NOT having all those insert clips from movies OTHER than the subject one. I felt that they were jarring and unnecessary.
@elzizar43082 жыл бұрын
Hi Ryan, editor here. Actually those inserts were my idea. They weren't in the script. Thanks for your observation. I've seen other people complaining about the punchlines on this video particulary. I will work harder to nail it in the next one. And thanks for watching JoBlo videos. Have an awesome day Ryan :D

This movie had so much potential to be the Flash Gordon of this generation. But, it failed spectacularly and wasted a cast of good actors, like Gerard Butler, Geoffrey Rush, Rufus Sewell and the late Chadwick Boseman.

It's a pity. They can complain about being sabotaged by the outrage, but they biggest issue is the script. There are plenty of movies with whitewashing that have done well. They could have saved themselves some trouble with less idiotic casting choices, but the story just wasn't interesting.

I loved this Movie....Still do. ANYTHING to do with Egypt has me going. I think as well, that people have been more and more nitpick about casting, and what nationality people are. There was no stereotypes here. Not every movie needs to bee mixed cast. This one was, and they still complained....Sad

not every movie needs to be but when your movie is called gods of egypt it needs to be. its like making a movie about vikings and making the main characters majority black you wouldn't like that would you?

Okay, so in woke logic, it's completely okay to ignore Tolkien's (very detailled and deliberate) character descriptions etc., but a campy fantasy movie that is very vaguely based on egyptian myths, has to be as accurate as possible. Yeah, sure. ;) If diversity is such an important strength for Hollywood, then why do so many of those very diverse/woke movies (and tv shows) become huge flops? Shouldn't there be a huge audience who is hungry for more diversity? People longing for more representation for decades now? Well, at least that's what we're told. Or could it be that those woke shitstorms (like it happened with "Gods of Egypt") only represent a very small minority of frustrated morons who spend their money on OnlyFans and Twitch thots and OnlyFans rather than buying movie tickets? Just sayin. ;) Greetings from Germany!

This recap left out director Proyas' extended, bitter engagement with critics after the movie got so viciously slammed...It culminated in his statements (NYT op-ed?) which condemned the criticism as insensitive and cruelly bullying to the individuals and teams who had put their blood, sweat and tears into the production. He felt it was unfair for many of the critics to slander people they didn't know. Further, he wondered how they could justify the potential damage they might render to the careers of these hard-working professionals (and their livelihoods and their families')...He pointed out that celebrity actors, writers, directors, producers, etc., may be financially insulated from the fallout of a box office and critical flop but almost everyone else on a production may not be. Regardless of what I felt about the movie (I liked it well enough), I was struck by Proyas' comments (whether self-serving or not, I don't care). We live in an age when it is extremely easy to provide instant feedback on just about everything. That sometimes takes on a nasty edge. That nastiness can be amplified, its distribution accelerated and its impacts magnified by the viral, networked nature of our media. What's potentially missing in all that is simple human compassion -- our sensitivity and respect for each other. It's so easy to say some snarky, malignant thing out of the sneering corner of our mouths (whether we even mean it or not). We don't have to think about it; we don't have to really care. But it sure is hard to take it back once it's out there and the damage is already done.

I really don’t get it anymore. Am i too old? Did the Zeitgeist move too fast for me to follow? Why? Why is it okay for a black actress to portray Anne Boleyn, but it’s a scandal for Gerard Butler to play an egyptian god? Can someone explain that to me?

The movie was good, casting was great but the media decided that they were hating the film before it even came out cause not enough >. It's a shame, you can always point it out and promote for more diversity in movies, but that should not make the film all bad (or all good for the opposite, looking at you Jordan Peel movie US). This was an excellent popcorn flick that remind me a lot of 90-90 action movies.
