Excellent just what I'm looking for in a Friday night streamer. Mission accomplished Ridley see you in 6-8 months hopefully.

So, what's your favorite portrayal ranking by movie:
Napoleon
Time Bandits
Bill and Ted

You left out "The Emperor's New Clothes," Ian Holm's third go-round as Napoleon, a slyly entertaining movie (I hope to god Ridley isn't reaching for slyness, it would not be a good look for him.)

Sounds like Alien films.
Are there xenomorphs, at least?

"Napoleon Bonaparte: Xenomorph Killer" is probably being written & uploaded to a fan fiction site as we speak

One of the big challenges with historical movies is just expectations management.

Always trying to listen to the story the director wants to tell.

In this case it seems like the story he wants to tell is closer to Pearl Harbor

So like most Ridley Scott films?

yendorcire.bsky.social•468 days ago

So it's a movie, then?

I'm only going to see the four hour director's cut if it has Tom Bombadil

Still, We're going. Hoping for ABBA:
Take a Chance on Me.

From your review, this movie sound absolutely bewildering.
