@JoshuaJLS83 @franzialover @BODY_W0_WHORGAN You’ve moved from “most realistic depiction ever” to complaining that a woman was competent in a sci-fi movie. That has nothing to do with the criticism of Apocalypto.

@SabritasXfa @JoshuaJLS83 @BODY_W0_WHORGAN Nothing about this really talks on any inaccuracies, but what they chose to focus on. The movie wasnt about art or science achievements, it was about ones struggle to simply survive. So try again

@JoshuaJLS83 @franzialover @BODY_W0_WHORGAN Kinda proving my point here. You think Indigenous representation is more “realistic” when it focuses heavily on torture/savagery. That’s exactly the criticism people have of Apocalypto.

I criticized the waste of Comanche culture that could have been utilized in this movie. Perhaps the predator watching a Comanche raid and the hideous tortures inflicted on the survivors would help us frame a predator vs predator outlook, deepening the meaning of the movie. It could easily have become a lesson on human (not just native) savagery. This is the angle of predator we should think on some more.

@one_guy_j @JoshuaJLS83 @BODY_W0_WHORGAN Except Roman gladiator movies usually aren’t treated as one of the only mainstream depictions of an existing marginalized Indigenous civilization. Context matters.

@SabritasXfa @JoshuaJLS83 @BODY_W0_WHORGAN Yeah. A movie about Roman gladiators doesn't make mention of Roman feats of science, art, or engineering either. Then there's second guy. Where is there any rescue in the movie? Both criticisms are garbage, one is fake.

@JoshuaJLS83 @franzialover @BODY_W0_WHORGAN “Woman protagonist = not a Comanche movie” is a pretty ridiculous argument lmao. The film still put more effort into representing Comanche culture accurately than Apocalypto did with the Maya.

@JoshuaJLS83 @BODY_W0_WHORGAN Then why are you using Apocalypto as “the most realistic depiction” while defending its historical inaccuracies with “it’s just a movie”? You can’t have it both ways lol

@SabritasXfa @BODY_W0_WHORGAN You just said Prey. Now I know you’re not serious. How does reading our own perceptions of modern feminism play into a culture that was probably the most savage and male centric of all the northern tribes? Dances with wolves was hippy nonsense.

@JoshuaJLS83 @BODY_W0_WHORGAN Also,the lack of Maya movies doesn’t prove Apocalypto is accurate. It just means one distorted depiction carries more weight because audiences have little else to compare it to.

@RealAgustinLepo @JoshuaJLS83 @BODY_W0_WHORGAN You’re arguing against a point nobody made. Nobody said “don’t show violence.” The issue is the movie exaggerates brutality and reduces a real civilization to “savage and collapsing” while ignoring everything else about them. “It’s fiction” doesn’t make that immune to criticism.

@SabritasXfa @JoshuaJLS83 @BODY_W0_WHORGAN So, the image in a nutshell: "You didn't show art or culture! there's a lot of inaccuracies but we won't tell them tho" where's the inaccuracy then? It's not a documentary why the fuck would they need to put daisies to sacrifice rituals?

@JoshuaJLS83 @BODY_W0_WHORGAN Hmm, that doesn’t invalidate the racist glamorization of the movie. Two things can be true at once. Yes u can enjoy the movie for what it is, but don’t go calling it “the most realistic” depiction of all time of these people

@JoshuaJLS83 @BODY_W0_WHORGAN I’m not going to post every historical scholar who provided input on the inaccuracies, I just posted a snippet of why it’s perceived as racist. Also kind of…most indigenous people appreciated the use of maya, but mixed bc at same time their painted as backwards monsters

@JoshuaJLS83 @BODY_W0_WHORGAN Lots of inaccuracies in the movie actually (like the nature and frequency of sacrifices for ex)….This movie meshed in so many other cultures and time periods together, just to glamorize and push the “savage” image, while ignoring other feats of this civilization at the time.

@BODY_W0_WHORGAN Nothing racist about this movie, in fact, it’s probably the most realistic and immersive depiction of American tribes in cinematic history.
