Angelina is HOT, Cleopatra was NOT imlad Send a noteboard - 16/06/2010 10:42:42 PM
Cleopatra had three things that were attractive about her: 1)she was uber-smart and willful, 2) she is generally agreed to have had large pretty eyes, and 3) she was a frakking pharoah of EGYPT and so was filthy rich!

As for being a woman of true physical beauty, well, historians will say "not so much" to that.

So, they should cast a greek woman with pretty eyes but an ugly face with a honker of a nose. But then, who would go see that?

And yeah, that's ridiculous. Of course, getting Angelina Jolie as Cleopatra is equally ridiculous.
Death to the Regressives of the GOP and the TeaParty. No mercy for Conservatives. Burn them all at the stake for the hateful satanists they are.

Did you read his post? There's no reason for an Africanish person to play the part. *NM* Ghavrel - 11/06/2010 06:58:42 AM 212 Views
The only reason for an "Africanish" queen... lyringlas - 11/06/2010 04:09:14 PM 640 Views

They should get Lyndsey Marshal back, she was awesome. And looked the part. Legolas - 11/06/2010 12:45:48 PM 596 Views

Purefoy was fantastic in his role. Legolas - 20/06/2010 10:42:56 AM 535 Views
Wait...is the racist part the idiocy of trying to say Cleopatra was black or the "wog" calling part? Tom - 15/06/2010 01:38:42 AM 581 Views
it's not even a proper use of the term wog. LadyLorraine - 15/06/2010 10:16:25 AM 550 Views
No, actually it is. Tom - 15/06/2010 05:06:54 PM 629 Views
mk so, looking at that neither use is "wrong". LadyLorraine - 16/06/2010 08:53:05 AM 532 Views
Hence, your statement "it's not even a proper use of the term wog" is incorrect. *NM* Tom - 16/06/2010 01:34:45 PM 200 Views
yah, i implied that i see that it is right LadyLorraine - 17/06/2010 05:10:37 AM 498 Views
And no one in the rest of the world cares about Australian slang. They're just weird down there. *NM* Tom - 16/06/2010 01:35:11 PM 213 Views
Perhaps you've confused "wog" and "wop". *NM* Tom - 15/06/2010 05:07:22 PM 214 Views
no, see above. LadyLorraine - 16/06/2010 08:54:27 AM 475 Views
Wouldn't the closest modern ethnicity to the ancient egyptians be the Coptics? *NM* imlad - 16/06/2010 10:44:39 PM 202 Views
Well, yes, or the non-Coptic Egyptians. Tom - 17/06/2010 12:57:54 AM 540 Views
I wasn't calling anyone a wog, I was suggesting a likely parallel to the Ptolemies' attitude Cannoli - 17/06/2010 09:58:23 PM 601 Views
I completely agree that the "black Cleopatra" syndrome is born of insecurities. Tom - 18/06/2010 02:11:15 AM 537 Views
Yah...i don't see why people ever think Cleopatra should be black. LadyLorraine - 15/06/2010 10:18:12 AM 526 Views
