me explaining to people how preventing the assassination of Paul I of Russia would cause the downfall of the British Empire in the XIX century

😭😭😭😭😭😭 This is a portrait of Napoleon from 1820, during the last year of his life. I’ve never seen a portrait of him this late in his life. He looks exactly how he was described at the time: thin, gaunt and pale. He was suffering from a painful and terminal illness.

is it just me or does Harold from TDI remind you of napoleon dynamite too?

Like, no difference, right?

Justice League flopped and thrashed for the game like CGI, Henry Cavill got mocked for his fake moustache removal. The Flash flopped and thrashed for terrible CGI. But people love Sasha Calle's Supergirl and complained her lack of screen time.

Suicide Squad got thrashed and Jared Leto was heavily criticized for being the worst Joker of all time but everyone loves Margot Robbie.

Spiderman 3 flopped as it has too many villains and overall messy plot, making it the worst movie in Raimi's trilogy.

People dislike Brie Larson as Captain Marvel but they love her in Kong Skull Island that they wanted a sequel with her in it.

CW's Supergirl is popular as Melissa Benoist and Katie McGrath stole the show with their acting and character development.

People criticized Ben Affleck and Robert Pattinson before they even watch the movies of them being the new Batman.

People didn't watch Black Adam as they say Dwayne Johnson is being the same as himself in every role that it's pointless to watch.

Ryan Gosling's Blade Runner 2049 flopped at the box office and people say the story is so boring that nothing happens.

Joaquin Phoenix got thrashed for being a terrible Napoleon and the inaccurate historical events further make it unwatchable.

The list goes on if I bothered to remember and research every one of the films and shows that flopped and thrashed.

But yeah, let's go with the "you're a misogynist" because you don't watch The Marvels and Madame Web.

Napoleon's Tomb on the island of Saint Helena

Started a new Dead Cells save file for kicks and this means I'm able to get fresh looks at cutscenes/lore events that only come up once, and it made me realize the King of the Island has a height insecurity problem.

Prisoner and the King are the exact same height, give or take if you don't count Prisoner's 'head' but the King's crown reaches significantly taller.

Prisoner is about waist-height to the Hand of the King.

The statue in Stilt Village with the King and the Hand together depicts the King as shoulder-height to the Hand.

The his & her wedding portraits of the King and the Queen have obviously been done at different scales to make them look like the same height; if you compare head sizes and proportions it's obvious that the Queen in life was the same height she is as a boss fight, so her husband would have also been about waist height to her.

(this is a little more obvious when you can tell the roses associated with the queen are also in her wedding portrait... and each of the roses in the vase is about the size of Prisoner's not-head)

But it gets worse.

High Peak Castle is, well, 'high peak'- it's the tallest environment in the game looked over only by the Observatory, which is literally supposed to be looking at the heavens, and the Throne Room has a view of the entire kingdom telling us that it is at the top of the castle.

The King of the Island has a desperate need to be the tallest person in the room. And Prisoner (same height) is shorter than the majority of npcs he interacts with.

Maybe I should conquer Europe and then lose a battle in a spectacular fashion just so I can save money on travel costs and make my enemies foot the bill for going to Saint Helena

Napoleon in Exile

Napoleon at Elba by Alcide Joseph Lorentz

Is there a single European monarch Alexander was NOT rumored to have slept with??

the ambassador in question is Caulaincourt btw. Oh but that’s not all.

the author then goes to assure that these relationships remained strictly platonic (which I’m inclined to agree with). But it is insane that Josephine died mere days after his last visit
