All the Bible movies are always about One of three things: Jesus, Moses, or
Noah.
I would like to see a film about Samson. It could be pretty emotional and
bad ass at the same time. Jason Momoa would be awesome in that role.

I’ve seen a surprising lack of religious comment wars, a few, but not near
the comment sections of some other videos.
Thumbs up to the Jeremy fan-base.

I doubt any Moses/Exodus adaptation can beat the Prince of Egypt. Dude,
that movie is GENIUS. The music, the epic scope, the characters of Moses
and Rameses, their relationship…… just everything was beautiful and had
wonderful depth. The plagues were exciting and horrifying, and the parting
of the Red Sea was appropriately climactic.

So many people complaining the movie had too many white people, and I’m
just here thinking that if someone complained that a movie had too many
black people the same people complaining now would probably be losing their
goddamn minds…

What’s with all the white people hate?
I never realized there’s really that much racism still going around.

Dude, Prince of Egypt is the ULTIMATE movie about exodus! Not only are the
characters not pasty white, but it’s got great characters and some
absolutely stunning animation.
This Exodus movie was just kinda meh for me, I mean the directing was good
and the cinematography was beautiful, but I wasn’t too keen on the script,
and I think the movie was pretty miscast.

Jeremy, I salute you. You’re like one of the few critics who didn’t buy
into the fake “whitewashing” controversy, instead you saw the movie on its
own merits.

Can there ever be anything on ancient Egypt without people screaming at
each other about what the color of their skin was?

Personally, my main problem with this movie isn’t isn’t whitewashing.
Hollywood done this million times before, and will do this million times
after. Ande beside, Ten Commandants had white actors too, Where were black
people back than to complain,heh?
My main problem is that this movie can be directed by anyone, literally.
Ridley Scott does not bring anything new to this story, that any other
random person from the street could, beside militant Moses and God in
child’s body (which I’m sure was done because it’s opossite of an old wise
man,like a lot ofpeople imagines God to look like). His version of this
story is uncreative,and his “radical theological” questions and answers,
were already questioned and answered by EVERY person alive, who actully
read a Bible. Beside good visuals (which are even better in 3D) it was
waste of time and for manny even insulting (just not for me). Even acting
was pretty damn bland, only thing that didn’t made me snore was dialog.

Yeah, I’m not seeing this movie. The whitewashing is just insane, nothing
about it looks even remotely egyptian (clothing etc.) and let’s be real:
Moses was a shephard. Why is he running around with armour and a sword? WTH
Hollywood?

Why would anyone ever complain about fantastic actors being cast in a
movie? Joel is phenomenal and Bale is simply a world class actor with
incredible range and commitment to roles.
People act like white characters don’t get portrayed by those from other
races. Smh.
The fact you can’t discuss this movie without whitewashing coming up shows
how sad our society is. I think in 2014 there is more racism towards whites
than any other race in america. We should be trying to eradicate racism all
together people, get informed.

Egyptians were not black! They were tan, middle eastern, much like today!
They intermixed with semetic-speakers, the Nubians were black in the
traditional sense, the kingdoms south of Egypt were black, Egypt, however,
was not black!
This is a public service announcement! Thank you for listening.

What’s wrong with you people? Ramesses II had red hair, long skull, and an
aquiline nose in real life (hence Caucasoid). The actor playing him in here
looks even less white than the real body. Edgerton is tan, not pasty white
in this film. John Turturro, who plays Seti I, has olive skin and curly
black hair. Christian Bale is the whitest character in the movie, and even
he has a thick dark beard in this film (giving him a more Hebrew look).
Where on Earth are you getting the idea that these people are pasty white,
or that the Egyptians were less white? Ignorance.

Whitewashed? Does no one know history at all? All of northern Egypt was
populated by ARABS (Caucasians) in ancient times. Evidence?
Pyramids/statues, paintings and skeletons/mummies! Think logically, black
people can’t even make a proper house made from sticks and mud, what makes
you think they can move 2.5 tons of solid stone to make over 100 pyramids?
The ancient paintings and statues showed all the pharaohs to have a
caucasoid facial structure (pointy nose) and they also had a RED skin tan.
Mummies and skeletons are HUGE evidence that they were white simply for the
fact of the skeletal structures. You people are fucking idiots, as soon as
you hear “Africa”, you automatically think black culture. Well, woopty doo!
Go look at a map and you would see that Egypt is literally connected to the
Middle East at walking distance. That’s like saying the people of Detroit
are white because it’s in America LMAO.
P.S. I see that you idiots take the red skin tan as a black color. Well,
does that mean East Indians are black? Last time I checked, skin tone
doesn’t determine race, skeletal structure does. Yes, ancient Egyptians had
a very dark skin tone, but their skeletal/facial structure is classified as
caucasian. SIMPLE OSTEOLOGY!!!

Two things: First, why explain everything with science. Hollywood is taking
away all the mythical elements of old stories. Like Dwayne Johnson in
Hercules. Just… why deflate the mythos everywhere?
Second, I wish the relationship between Moses and Ramses would be more
conflicting. In like, they both don’t want to go at it with eachother, but
their positions (being on a mission from God on one hand, and being the
Pharaoh and trying to keep Egypt’s economy afloat on the other) forcing
them into battle. Ramses just comes along as this evil, spoiled kid that is
so jealous of his brother while Moses gets all the character development
and inner conflict.
