 I hate how Hollywood routinely butchers the “look” of history. Its so atrocious it almost feels intentional.

We really need to normalize the idea that ancient times were colorful. Everybody thinks it was all grey and then movies keep reinforcing it.

Ok? The goal of Hollywood isn’t to make movies as historically accurate as possible. It’s to make movies as compelling as possible, which sometimes means anachronistic costume design.

In what way does this make the scene less dramatic?
