Wouldn’t it be funny if the new Netflix Cleopatra documentary by Jada Pinkett Smith DID show Berenice usurping the throne from Ptolemy XII, DID show Arsinoe’s uprising and imprisonment, DID show that the Great Library was more of a university but kind of in decline, DID show that Caesar probably seduced her during the siege of the city in which they worked together closely, DID show Cleopatra lending a navy and running the most organized economy until the USSR and a cosmopolitan city with ethnic Egpytians, Greeks, and the biggest population of Jews outside Judea therefore making it the most historically accurate Cleopatra thing of all time even though the actor playing her does not look Macedonian?

#Netflix Cleopatra #Cleopatra 2023 #Jada Pinkett Smith #cleopatra was macedonian #but if that's the only historical inaccuracy you care about ask yourself why #this is probably yet another sex fantasy about the Caesar Cleo Marc Antony love triangle in which case IT DOESN'T MATTER #a lot of people are saying let's see a doc about Hatshepsut or the Kush dynasty in which casting a black actor would make more sense #and yeah #10/10 would watch #but come on it would be funny #HA HA HA HA HA HA THIS IS THE MOST ACCURATE CLEO THING EVER HEE HEE HEE HEE #kind of like how the MTV 1990s Romeo + Juliet was the truest to the original version #which meant PEOPLE HAD TO WATCH IT AND SHOW IT IN HS CLASSESS HA HA AHA HA HEHEHEEE #original posts #racism
