ITT, We Cast and write a kino about the Byzantine Empire (theres a frustrating lack of kinos about this empire, everything is about muh Roman Republic or muh Caesar or muh Spartacus). I will start by casting Nina Dobrev as Empress Theodora. The movie will be about her life.

>Slavic Ashkenazi Jew as a Macedonian Byzantine

no

Nina is Bulgarian, Russian Orthodox Christianity is her religion

>Both John of Ephesus and Procopius (in his Secret History) relate that Theodora from an early age followed her sister Komito's example and worked in a Constantinople brothel serving low-status customers; later she performed on stage.[8] Lynda Garland in "Byzantine Empresses: Women and Power in Byzantium, AD 527–1204" notes that there seems to be little reason to believe she worked out of a brothel "managed by a pimp". Employment as an actress at the time would include both "indecent exhibitions on stage" and providing sexual services off stage. In what Garland calls the "sleazy entertainment business in the capital", Theodora earned her living by a combination of her theatrical and sexual skills.[3] In Procopius' account, Theodora made a name for herself with her salacious portrayal of Leda and the Swan.[9] Modern feminist sources report that as she was "famous for her wit, she performed as a comedienne at private parties."[7]

Hot. Hopefully someone related to me somehow got to fuck that prime puss.

>Poor Goy's Emmanuel

cute

Film should be about Basil the Bulgar Slayer.

Sounds boring as fuck. If you're going to do a movie about the Byzantines pick a more a interesting historical figure. Theodora was an overrated whore. Literally.

Tom Cruise as Belisarius

giv vampire gf

Who could be more interesting than a literal prostitute who became leader of an empire?

>leader of an empire

Cool feminist historical revisionism bro

Justinian I was a literal cuckold. Its known she was the one ruling. She was literally giving her lovers high ranking positions in government with her husbands consent

That's an opinion held only by pop historians and feminists. Justinian I wasn't a competent emperor by any means but Theodora was definitely not some kind of puppetmaster pulling the strings.

peasant to emperor story about Basil I
something about vigilantism involving Leo VI, plus his scandalous marriages, and the formal dissolution of the byzantine senate.
you also have justinian + belisarius, alexios and his sisters for the 1st crusade, or the siege of constantinople with constantine the 15th or something

honestly way too historical unless you want to make a series (set during Justinian's reconquest of the western empire, and the resulting floundering), or something like Kingdom of Heaven or Troy.

Episode 1 is set in 1453, the Turks conquer Constantinople and rename it Istanbul

Episode 2 onwards is the history of the Ottoman empire, which is actually interesting unlike Byzantium

>That's an opinion held only by pop historians and feminists

Source for this? Where there is smoke there is fire Drumpftard. Theres so many contemporary accounts that support what Im saying about her. Either give me a good source that denies everything attributed to her or fuck off and keep your Drumpftard schizophrenic delusions and fever dreams to yourself

forgot image
also this. byzantium is effectively at times like GOT but not as entertaining and nobody really wins

Idris Elba

Beleaguered whites fail to defend the greatest city in the world against hordes of muslim invaders. The parallels to modern day are real.

>Greeks and Slavs
>"whites"

Turks liberated the land from subhumans

>Drumpftard
Where are you people even coming from lmao

Caucasian skulls. Get fucked ;)

he is accusing me of being a feminist because his brainlet cant comprehend the possibility of a male ruler being so pussywhipped by his wife she takes his power and is the de facto ruler. Even though history is LITTERED with such examples

Flick = The Wars of Justinian
Movie = Basil II The Bulgar Slayer
Film = Heraclius against the Persians
Cinema =Constantine IX and the Fall of the City
Kino = Justinian II The Slit Nosed

Honorable mentions
>The Isaurians and the Iconoclasts
>The Alexiad

Seems to me you're the brainlet, you are barely composed.

>Where there is smoke there is fire
Not an argument.
>Theres so many contemporary accounts that support what Im saying about her.
Post them.

More like JUSTinian, am I right.

>answering as if you are a third party impartial observer

fuck off samefag, I know youre still the same guy responding to what i say. If you dont want people to call you buzzword dont use buzzword insults and dont infuse your contemporary warped politics into every single conversation like the brainwashed sheep you are

Damn you are stupid as fuck lol, I'm not even that you were talking to. Try not getting so emotional over internet arguments you pathetic wank stain.

I bet feminists would freak and call this exploitation made up by writers.

>number of posters remains the same each time this faggot posts

At least use two devices or post from your mobile plan. Dont be such a low-energy troll

Anyways, i'll stop wasting brain cells on responding to a pleb like you. Have a nice night faggot
>Post them.
No, faggot. I told you to post your sources first. If you post your sources, I;'ll post mine. Im not your puppet you dumb bitch, if you ignore my request i ignore your request too you dumb cocksucker

Because I've posted in the thread dipshit.
I'm
You're a fucking retard lmao. Embarrassing.

>no 4th crusade kino
pretty sure the turks did a movie about the final fall of the city tho

>not casting Nina Byzantina

>Peter Barsymes was a senior Byzantine official, associated chiefly with public finances and administration, under Byzantine emperor Justinian I
>Came from Syria
>Awarded honorary titles
>In order to replenish the treasury, he restarted the sale of offices, but his speculation with the grain supply of the capital failed, and he was dismissed soon after by Justinian.

>Petyr Baelish was a senior King's Landing official, associated chiefly with public finances
>Came to KL from a foreign land
>Awarded titles by King Joffrey
>In order to replenish the treasury, he cooked the treasury books and borrowed heavily from the Iron Bank
>Dismissed soon after by Queen Cersei

Is GRRM a hack?

remember that time tyrion had a chain forged to assist in the siege at KL
remember that time the byzantines used a chain to block the ottoman naval advance during the fall of constantinople

Remember that time GoT used Greek Fire?

FUCK OFF OP
YOU ALREADY GOT YOUR THREE THREADS IN 24 HOURS

Youre just realizing this now?

Red Wedding is inspired by a similar incident that happened in Scotland, Stark-Lannister War is based on War of the Roses between the Lancasters and Yorks in England, Jon Snow's stabbing by the NW is based on Caesar's stabbing etc..

Im sure theres a bunch of other historical analogies that Im too sleepy to remember, but alot of ASOIAF is adapted real-life events. It doesnt necessarily mean hes a hack, but he does borrow heavily from other works and history. For example, Bobby B is based on Richard III and Oberyn is based on Inigo Montoya

which 3 threads? Im not OP but Im on Sup Forums all day I havent seen any byzantine shit lately

did a Ginger murder him too?

>everyone is a Jew

pepperidge farm remembers

Make sure to have gladiators and forbidden loves. Literally a winning recipe.

You want to do Justinian and Theodora? That could be fun. But IMO it's too much at the height of Byzantine power. Put it a couple hundred years later when things were shitty, that would be more interesting.

Thank you Nina and Paul and Ian and the rest of the cast for VD.

It will need Spartacus tier gladiatorial fighting. That kind of male talent will be hard to find.

Rip Andy

>casting a Bulgarian as Byzantine Empress

Do you not know that the Bulgarians and the Byzantine Empire were rivals for centuries and had a metric ton of wars?

Vampire Diaries is the first tv show where literally every character (male or female) was sexy AF. I dont think I ever someone unattractive throughout the whole show. Even the random extras who would be victims were always fucking dimes

I wonder who could be behind this post.

>Do you not know that the Bulgarians and the Byzantine Empire were rivals for centuries and had a metric ton of wars?

who gives a shit. shes hot and looks the part and might finally fucking do a nude scene already if its a big production

Ya, they took the Buffy formula and made a fantastic show.

Buffy formula:

2 hot guys fights for one chick
Hot supporting characters
Cool villains with redemption arcs
Vampires
High school/college drama
Perfect 10 cast

So cast a hot Greek actress, because Byzantium was Greek.

The only real critique I have for VD is that there wasn't real fighting.

But even so they made it work because it was about fighting with banter and the banter is the best part.

Except Theodora wasnt Greek?

actually she was sorry

According to multiple sources, she was born Cyprus.

In my mind, Nina is Theodora. You can make other suggestions if you would like

i dont understand women. Judging from her Slavic ethnicity and her IG posts and rampant yachting and partying, shes a giant slut. Yet somehow she hasnt done a nude scene yet. Ive noticed actresses who are Canadian are much less likely to do nude scenes for some reason

chariot racing kino
maybe nika riots

Slav here, fuck off. Our women are learning this degeneracy from your western slags.

t. Buttblasted mtf

Mtf 's have no purpose in life except to try and pull down hetero normies from their perch so they can sit on it.

Why make a film about a literal whore?
Make it about white and based Alexios Komnenos, who told the Turks to fuck off back to Central Asia

are you a virgin? She seems like a stuck up prude and a cocktease

>Russian Orthodox Christianity
>Bulgarian
americans should stop posting

Here comes the tranny defense force

Byzantium is the lamest and shittiest empire in existence.Literlaly DUDE WE WANT TO BE LIKE ROME BUT WE ARE BUNCH OF INCOMPETENT GREEK SHITSKING RETARDS LMAO.
at least Rome took an L to white people and not fucking t*rks, lmao

>dude lmao I h8 having a bepis

I looked it up on google. literally all the results say she is Russian orthodox

the only russian orthodox country is russia, dumb fuck
every orthodox country has their own church
bulgaria is literally the olded european orthodox country after greece, russian became christian way later then them

read a book

It's just a posturing Canadian tranny. Ignore. They literally have no purpose in life except to be judgmental about everything heteronormative.

literally every Slavic girl Ive ever met has been either a coalburner or a stripper or a cam whore or literal prostitute or some combination of the 4. fuck off, slavic women are so cheap I fucked 3 of them for $70-$100 each when I visited my country. They literally suck dick for a sandwich and fries

Trannies literally have no purpose in life except to start flame wars online.

are you having a psychotic breakdown? Are you alright there? do you need a glass of water or some xanax?

"""greeks""" stopped existing like 2000 years ago, byzantium was a clusterfuck of native yuro tribes, slavs, anadolians, etc

today's """greece""" came to existence 150 years ago and its basically bungh of turko-slavo-anadolo-whatever mongrels that delude themselves with having anything to do with ancient greece just because of the name

Oh woops it's the mk ultra people

Must be nice to be the only people with full rights to the 1st amendment.

>everything is about muh Roman Republic
name one movie about the Roman Republic

>byzantium
>roman

Slavic women are some of the biggest whores on the planet, buddy. It's pretty much a rite of passage for 18 year old girls in EE to crawl clubs in capital cities looking for foreign cock. Wish I was lying.

read the OP you twat

I just hope Nina isn't here to read this. You're saying very mean things tbph.

Byzantium arose as "Eastern Roman Empire", they called themselves "Romans" as well. Heck, they even conquered Rome and reunited East and West for a few centuries. So Historians, while recognizing they are distinct entities, still think of the Byzantine Empire as a continuation of the Roman Empire

make me, loser

Not him but
>Caesar and Cleopatra (Gabriel Pascal, 1945)
>Asterix the Gaul (Ray Goossens, 1967)

Gibbon pls go

>Nina Byzantina
jesus I was hoping this was some porn actress

Fucking Romanians today think they are roman too, it doesnt make it right

Bulgarians and Serbians at some point claimed third Rome too

hell, fucking Russians even still think they are a continuation of Rome, lmao

Everyone wanted to be the Romanest of them all

You fucked a gypsy. They're the only ones who go west.

I don't know what kind of women you're hanging around, bro. Most girls I know think west Europeans are too effeminate.

My country isnt in the West, user

most probably this you either fucked a gypsy(they are qutie literally indian, no fuckin idea how you could mistake them with slavs) or probably russian.

the "slav whores" notoriety comes mainly from russian girls, in my experience most of the polish/czech and balkan girls were stuck as fuck and always paly hard to get

stop arguing semantics with me you literal cocksucking fairy faggot nancy homosexual queer. literally fuck off and get a life. Byzantine Empire arose DIRECTLY from Roman Empire,the Eastern Provinces seceded basically. so if anyone has a claim to being Roman, its them. IDGAF about Russia or Romania or slav shitholes, you son of a bitchwhore cuntface slutbag hoe. Stop arguing semantics with me.

*angery responded*

>you either fucked a gypsy(they are qutie literally indian

They were Romanian brunettes and hot AF, they werent gypsies, I know what gypsies are

>implying a literally perfect specimen such as herself would be lewd outside the bedroom

>how to out yourself as dumbfuck amerinigger
romanians arent slavs, you uneducated monkey

its not semantics, dumbo
Romania was literally a part of the Roman Empire too.They even have the same name nowadays.
Are they the modern Rome?
