    After a couple years of Anatomy of a Failure, we've covered quite a few cinematic stinkers from The Lone Ranger to Charlie's Angels to Disney's Artemis Fowl. But today we might have found our ultimate competitor: Gods of Egypt. What separates this movie from all others is that -- aside from just being bad and losing a bunch of money -- it seems to be of a perfect showcase of Hollywood studio filmmaking. Apparently it has credited writers and a director but the real filmmaker behind it seems to be the studio. All the major mistakes Hollywood studios makes while interfering in projects like Fantastic Four and so on, Gods of Egypt features. It's like the ultimate how-to guide to making a trash Hollywood studio movie destined to become a bad box office flop. And so let's use that guide to see what not to do!

Horus is supposed to be the god of the heavens, but you never see him shooting lightning, raining, or using a tornado like a club. No god felt like a god. If they said they were just aliens, I would believe it. The only one who gave the presence of a god was Ra. He literally pulled the sun, using a boat, flying over a flat Earth, while fighting an eldritch abomination.

      @@whynotdean8966 Somewhat true, but not exactly. While the idea of omniscience and omnipotence have evolved with modern religions, gods have always been extraordinarily powerful forces that dictated the flow of the natural world. After all, religion was often used to describe any natural phenomenon not understood by BCE technology, which was most. An earthquake, plague, or drought could and would all be attributed to the anger of a god. In fact, it's arguable that most mythology *was* a clusterfuck due to the constant infighting among deities. Just look at the Iliad, for example.

    In the original ancient Egyptian story, Set was helping Ra defaet Apophis, (demon snake) every day while his brother (Osiris) lived in Egyptian Paradise.
    So Set grew jealous of Osiris and tedious of his pointless daily fights, so he challenged his father that caused him to be banished to the desert.
    So Set seeked revenge and killed his brother, cut him to 14 pieces and scattered him across the lands, then Osiris' wife (Isis) patched her husband back so his soul can travel to the afterlife.
    Enter Horus, who was just a young boy when his father was killed, he trained his whole life so he can avenge his father and protect Egypt from Set's tyranny.
    Eventually Horus fights Set and wins but losing his eye in the process, and so Horus became the rightful King of Egypt. Osiris became king of the afterlife and the first to be mummified. Set was not killed in the battle but became very weakened and thus his reign was over.

      @Silvia_Arienti 4 года назад +64

      Actually, ancient mythologies don't have a fixed canon, for example this is the first time I've heard this version of the story. However, the most accurate version is this:
      [PART 1]
      Wesir (Osiris) is the king, having inherited the kingship from his ancestors in a lineage stretching back to the main creator of the world, Ra, the others being the Khemenyu (Ogdoad), Tem (Atum), Ptah, Amen (Amun), and Net (Neith). His queen is Aset (Isis), who, along with Wesir and his future murderer, Setekh (Set), is one of the children of the earth god Gebeb (Geb) and the sky goddess Nut.
      Setekh's grievance is that Wesir had sex with Nebet-Hut (Nephthys), who is Setekh's consort and the fourth child of Gebeb and Nut. Setekh has an elaborate chest made to fit Wesir's exact measurements and then, at a banquet, declares that he will give the chest as a gift to whoever fits inside it. The guests, in turn, lie inside the coffin, but none fit inside except Wesir. When he lies down in the chest, Setekh slams the cover shut, seals it, and throws it into the Hapi (Nile). Setekh then has Wesir's body cut into forty-two pieces and scatteres them across Kemet (Egypt), each piece being equated with a sepat (nome). With one of Wesir's pieces inside, the chest floats out into the sea, arriving at the city of Gebal (Byblos), where a tree grows around it. The king of Gebal has the tree cut down and made into a pillar for his palace, still with the chest inside.
      Wesir's death is followed by an interregnum. Meanwhile, Aset searches for her husband's body with the aid of Nebet-Hut. Having found the chest, she leaves the tree in Gebal, where it becomes an object of worship for the locals. She, however, learns about the dismemberment when she opens the chest. Aset then finds each piece of her husband's body, with the exception of the penis, which she has to reconstruct with magic, because the original was eaten by fish in the river. The goddesses restore Wesir's body with the help of other deities, including Djehuti (Thoth), a deity credited with great magical and healing powers, and Inepu (Anubis), the god of embalming and funerary rites. Wesir becomes the first mummy, and the gods' efforts to restore his body are the basis for embalming practices, which sought to prevent and reverse the decay that follows death. Once Wesir is made whole, Aset conceives his son and rightful heir, Hor (Horus). Wesir's revival is however not permanent, and after this he becomes the ruler of the Duat, the distant and mysterious realm of the dead.
      The pregnant Aset hides from Setekh, to whom the unborn child is a threat, in a thicket of papyrus in the delta of the Hapi. This place is called Akh-bit (Khemmis) and it is near the city of Per-Wadjet (Buto). After this Aset travels in the wider world. She moves among ordinary humans who are unaware of her identity, and she even appeals to these people for help. She also has the aid of other deities, who protect her son in her absence. During this time, Hor is beset by a number of dangers, like when he's bitten by a snake. These hostile creatures are agents of Setekh.

    • @Silvia_Arienti
      @Silvia_Arienti 4 года назад +47

      [PART 2]
      After growing up, Hor challenges Setekh for the throne. The contest between them is a legal judgment before the Pesedjet (Ennead), an assembled group of nine deities, to decide who should inherit the kingship. The judges in this trial are Gebeb, who, as the father of Wesir and Setekh, held the throne before they did, and the creator god Ra, the originator of kingship.
      The divine struggle involves many episodes. The two gods appeal to various other deities to arbitrate the dispute and competing in different types of contests, such as racing in boats or fighting each other in the form of hippopotami, to determine a victor. Hor repeatedly defeats Setekh and is supported by most of the other deities. Yet the dispute drags on for eighty years, largely because one of the judges, the creator god, favors Setekh. The conflict then escalates as a great battle involving the two deities' assembled followers. The strife in the divine realm extends beyond the two combatants. At one point Aset attempts to harpoon Setekh as he is locked in combat with her son, but she strikes Hor instead, who then cuts off her head in a fit of rage. Djehuti replaces Aset's head with that of a cow.
      In a key episode in the conflict, Setekh sexually abuses Hor. The sexual encounter begins when Setekh asks to have sex with Hor, who agrees on the condition that Setekh will give Hor some of his strength. Hor thwarts Setekh by catching Setekh's semen in his hands. Aset retaliates by putting Hor's semen on lettuce-leaves that Setekh eats. Setekh's defeat becomes apparent when this semen appears on his forehead as a golden disk. He has been impregnated with his rival's seed and as a result "gives birth" to the disk. Djehuti takes the disk and places it on his own head.
      Another important episode concerns mutilations that the combatants inflict upon each other: Hor steals Setekh's testicles and Setekh tears out one of Hor's eyes. The removal of the Wedjat (Eye of Horus) is important, for one of Hor's major roles is as a sky deity, and for this reason his right eye was said to be the sun and his left eye the moon. Aset, Djehuti, and Hut-Hor (Hathor) retrieve it for him. The restoration of Hor's eye is accompanied by the restoration of Setekh's testicles, so that both gods are made whole near the conclusion of their feud.
      In the end Gebeb, as judge, apportions the realm between the claimants: Hor receives the fertile lands around the Hapi, the earth, and Shema (Upper Egypt); while Setekh receives the barren desert, the sky, and Mehu (Lower Egypt). Gebeb however reverses himself, awarding sole control to Hor. In this peaceable union, Hor and Setekh are reconciled, and the dualities that they represent have been resolved into a united whole. Through this resolution, order is restored after the tumultuous conflict.
      With great celebration among the gods, Hor takes the throne, and Kemet at last has a rightful king. The divine decision that Setekh is in the wrong corrects the injustice created by Wesir's murder and completes the process of his restoration after death. Setekh is also made to carry Wesir's body to its tomb as part of his punishment. The new king performs funerary rites for his father and gives food offerings to sustain him: only through these acts can Wesir be fully enlivened in the afterlife and take his place as king of the dead, paralleling his son's role as king of the living.

    One of the most celebrated fantasy movies of all time was Lord of the Rings, it begins with a 4 min narrated opening exposition. Gods of egypt opens with...1 min and 30 seconds.....
    Actually thats not true, the REAL problem with gods of egypt, more than anything, is it's writing. you see, the 1 min opening narrated exposition...is actually 10 min long because of the 1 year jump Filmeto talks about later on. The story also contains the intro of the other hero within the establishing exposition too, which is another real mistake.
    Exposition is not bad in and of itself, its how it is used to start the narrative.
    I want to push back against it because it gets people to buy into a MUCH more ANNOYING trope of always starting a story "In medias res" which is quickly becoming very fucking over done and tired. So many movies and tv shows now open with "ZOMG! Whats GoInG On!!! KaBOOM! WaIt Is ThAt GiRl DeD? Oh! OnE wEeK EaRlIer! Oh I sEe!!! HuRRRRR@!" Its fucking insulting to me as a viewer and I would like its popularity to stop.

    -New powers as the plot demands.
    -Villains that don't do anything evil (or aren't evil enough).
    -A time-skip, because fuck you.
    -False character development.
    -A gratuitious CGI-heavy third act.
    -A happy ending devoid of consequence.
    And my favorite of them all...

      many Holywood movies are occult doctrines ingrained into profane stories.
      eg. Pinocchio - G the Maker takes a block of wood and shapes it into an idol, then the fairie puts life into it. a Jiminy Cricket(Jesus Christ) advices Pinocchio on the good path, while a red fox J.Worthington Foulfellow and a cat Gideon sell him to a Puppet Master.
      now, there's a thing called numerology, where letters have numerical value. thus, W=3, F=6. so the deceiving red fox is 3 times 6. the beast.

    Watching this reminded me of Disney's "Hercules". In that, Hades was angry at his brother for essentially the same reason Set was angry at Ra: no respect, being stuck with a horrible existence while his brother had a great one. Hades also recruited the Titans to destroy Olympus just like Set used the space worm. Likewise, Hercules is like Horus in that he really doesn't have any demonstrable flaw he needs to overcome. Hercules and Horus both get their immortal powers back by doing something "unselfish". Having said that, I actually liked "Gods of Egypt" more than "Hercules".
