    Default Apocolypto?

    This movie Apocolypto is a couple years old, and might have already been discussed on here, but I just saw it and WOW, what an awesome movie.

    Anyone know how true the representation of the cultures was portrayed? Man what a great visual movie. each new face and image got weirder. Watched it twice in a row; going to watch it again. Cool stuff, what a kill or be killed environment that was.

    Yep. Where that one dude got hit by an arrow in the back of his head, and went though his mouth.

    I havent seen this for awhile, but I remember at the end it shows a European or Spanish ship or something? That's when you know the whole civilization is about to get fucked

    I don't know. I loved it. Scary; not horror movie scary, but just frightening in its brutality. JMO.

    The Mayans didn't screw around. If you look at the ruins in Chichen Itza Mexico, there is a games one. Carved on it are depictions of what happened if you didn't win the game. It wasn't pretty. Head on a stick for all to see. Row upon row.

    Yeah man we learnt about this last year in uyni for some reason, they had to get this hard as fuck ball in the hoop without the use of either all your limbs or just your legs like soccer. But either way these guys were insane, people getting cracked skulls from heading the ball. Plus if it was on a ritual day the losing team were sacrificed. I would much rather have been a fatty in those days haha.

    Anyone seen 10000 BC? what did you think of it?

    I've been learning about all sorts of Mayan (and other indigenous peoples) cultural practices and societal conventions, very interesting stuff.

    10,000 BC was fucking terrible and horribly inaccurate. It's nothing more than an action/fantasy movie. The plot/story line sucked too.
