Exodus: Gods and Kings Official Trailer #1 (2014) - Christian Bale, Ridley Scott Epic Movie HD
An account of Moses' hand in leading the Israelite slaves out of Egypt.
Going back now watching this trailer still gives me the chills 6 years ago.
Me too
same
Just hate that they white washed the hell out of it
I remember watching this trailer in the movie theaters
@@rashadgaston548 Well, that’s the deal. The Israelites are Caucasian. The Ancient Egyptians were many races. In the First Dynasty, they were predominantly black African, but starting with the Second Dynasty, they were predominantly Caucasian. After Alexander the Great conquered Egypt, the rulers were Greek. That was the Ptolemy Empire. The Greeks are Caucasian. There were many Cleopatras, but the most well known Cleopatra was a ruler of the Ptolemy Empire. She was Greek. Eventually the Roman Empire conquered Egypt. Anyone from any racial heritage could become a Roman citizen, but they were predominantly Italian. The Italians are Caucasian. After Rome fell, the Arabs moved in. Arabs, like the Israelites, are Caucasian.
Ignorant, improperly educated, left wing fools blindly and naively revealed that ignorance and lack of education/improper education by assuming that the movie had been whitewashed. They believed this because they’re ignorant of history, ignorant of racial heritage indicators, and do not read enough.
You wouldn’t want to be like them, would you?
This trailer is so much better than the actual movie..
Based
no cap
The water scene parting couldn't match the ten Commandments. This one was rediculous and Moses looked dirty , probably from that skin color that they couldn't get right
So sad, yet so true...
What I love the most to look forward in this movie is the special effects of those plagues coming to the land of Egypt. The story is just so exciting to be true and giving it a visual presentation is kinda overwhelming.
Noah now Moses, really looking forward to Jonah and a fish
I love it when Atheists talk shit, because it makes me just more committed to my beliefs.
***** we're sorry
I remember watching this at a 14 year old kid, and I rewatched it dozens of times. Still one of the greatest trailers ever.
Gotta hate it when the 2 minute trailer is far better than the entire 2 hour movie…
Sounds more like ADD. You have to invest in the acquisition of knowledge rather than have it spoon fed.
I'm sorry but I loved this movie The Trailer doesn't do this movie Justice at all maybe you just don't understand it since you were 14 this movie was awesome..
@@joywalker4918 almost all audiences and critics hate this movie lol, look up some reviews. Sounds like you just enjoyed a movie that wasn't very good. That's totally fine!
@@joywalker4918 The movie was a disaster. The trailer is much better and more epic.
"Hi, I'm Batman, Jesus, John Connor and Moses."
Chris Bale
He's also a wizard from 'Howl's moving castle'.
I think your talking about Jim Caviezel.
Also an American Psycho.
So to sum up he's a psycho prophet cyborg killing guy who dresses up like a bat
Also Howl from Howl's Moving Castle lol
If it's a Ridley Scott film, you know you have to see it simply for the visuals. The guy may lose it when it comes to story and consistency but he damn well knows how to frame a scene.
Well he definitely didn't lose it in this one
To the people who argue a lot about Egyptian history, Many of you need to educate yourselves on this subject matter. FIRST of all the Original Egyptians were the Nubians, and they were as black as midnight. There were SEVERAL different types of Egyptians, because other Empires came to conquer them. The Asians came and conquered Egypt too, which was around Moses' time period (ca. 1250 BC). These people were called the Hyksos (look it up).. So if anything, The Pharoah Ramses and the Egyptians should mostly look like tanned/dark Asians.. So Bollywood actors will definitely pass for them. Now around Cleopatra's time (40 BC), they were white. Why? Because Cleopatra wasn't even Egyptian, she was GREEK! And the Romans took over Egypt at that point and placed puppet leaders. Nowadays, Egypt has been taken over by the ARABS: basically Muslims. There are still Nubians living in Egypt, but think of them as the Native Americans in America..living in Reservations. People should like this comment so everyone can see this and stop arguing about if Egyptians should be black/white or whatever, lol. I'm still not gonna see this stupid movie though
you had to wait three long years to get reply on this comment. good point though
Even though I am a Christian, I'm still excited about this movie for the same reason I was excited about Noah. That reason is you gotta know what to expect. I know that this bible story will be completely tampered and fiction-modified. So to me, I just want to see a good entertaining movie. By the way, I do have one question though just for food for thought. WHY IS EVERYONE IN THIS MOVIE WHITE?!!! The real story happened in Egypt which, the last time I checked, was in Africa. Just thought I'd ask
Same with 'The Ten Commandments.' If you are consistent, you should have a problem with both. Or, like most sensible people, you can (or hopefully did) enjoy it for the piece of cinema that it is.
Might actually go see this, because of Ridley Scott and Christian Bale :). Looks good.
hell ya ridley scott made gladiator which is one of the best films of all time. christian bale is alright not my favorite. but ridley scott and ancient egypt.. looks cool. egyptian society was very cool.
RedNosePitbullMT
Yeah Gladiator is one of my favorites :D.
christian bale is the best...no fuckin doubt
"You say that you didn't cause all these, you say it is not your fault, so let's just see who is more effective at killing. You or me?!" One of the best lines ever.
I really dont care if it is the true and right story of moses or if he is black or white I just care about ridley scott delivering a epic oscar winning movie like gladiator!
***** also agreed
Nope, but Tony Scott could if he was alive. He should have left his Brother notes. Tony was awesome!
Moses black?
After reading the comments, I'm astonished at how many simple minds there are out there. It's as if people don't realize the races of mankind is a spectrum of colors, not just black or white. Egyptians,my friends have a distinct look and color of skin, distinct, but similar to other Middle Eastern races. And black people, be proud of your African heritage, but for the love of God, stop trying to hijack other cultures as your own. Granted, some Egyptians were black, but according to ancient Egyptian texts, blacks were always acknowledged as foreigners. As for the similar look between blacks (only applies to _some_ light skinned American blacks) and Egyptians, well you can thank your native American heritage for that. Before your pure African genes got mixed with native American genes, which share similar traits with Egyptians, you looked just like your native African brethren. In fact, if you take an actual African with no American Indian heritage and compare them to Egyptians, the similarities cease to exist. That is all.
Obsidian SeventyOne Always interesting to hear from the laymen. Keep reading buddy, you'll get there one day! As for the texts, all of them refer to the nubians (blacks) only when referencing servants or slaves, but always as foreigners. Also, there are blacks depicted in the hieroglyphs and are clearly different to even the most simple mind from _actual_ Egyptians to include the darkness of the skin color, the noses and lips are distinctly bigger and rounder, and the tasks these people are depicted performing equates to what the texts describe, servant tasks. Either way, as it's obvious you're part of the crowd that all wants the rest of us to believe Jesus who was a Jew is actually black, I doubt reason and logic will work with you. You, friend, need to be proud of your own heritage, and granted, while blacks may have been _A_ labor force behind the building of the pyramids, they were not _THE primary_ labor force, and certainly not the brains behind it as they were not the ones in charge. Oh and it doesn't matter which middle eastern race I choose as an example to compare the Egyptians to, the point is they all fit in the same circle, a circle that does not include white people, orientals, or blacks. Thanks, come again!
Oh and the Egyptians classified people into 4 different "species" as they called it.
bit.ly/1FRyua9
PS. I'm Italian and yeah my people created shit. A lot of shit actually. Italians have a very rich and innovative history, thanks for acknowledging that ;) But you're wrong about us being the only ones to create shit. The Babylonians, Ming Dynasty, Aztecs, or the Myans to name a few other cultures known for their achievements. In laymen's term, you're full of shit bro.
mistermographic No, I totally agree with you on the cast choices for the movie. I was actually only talking about a lot of what I read in the comments section. Sorry for the confusion.
Obsidian SeventyOne Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places....at least thats gods true nature,,your worried about,race,color.flesh and blood,,you do not fight for god no matter what color his chosen is,,you are just looking for a shade of skin to give you ammo to fight your flesh and blood war that is not of god period,,,grow up
Dr Dj Psycho Well said. Praise God!
Egyptians were black. Save the bullshit
Moses was not escorted out of Egypt...he fled, neither did God send a child to speak to him near the burning bush, He spoke to Moses himself......and water did not recede at the red sea, he parted it. what Bible were they using to act this movie??????
Uh, well it's a movie not the book. The next movie that's exactly like the book it's adapted from will be the first.
ClandestineOstrich hahahahaha
For goodness sake... he didn’t send a child. He was represented by the child. Hence why only Moses could see him. It was Sam original and brilliant take on god.
@@Chronocrits Dude both in Christianity and Islam, God used angels to represent Himself or He would do it Himself. But this movie isn't based on the real history, rather inspired. Pharaoh wasn't his brother, but rather his foster father.
Guys, speak with some respect when you are talking about Allah, The bible is fabricated by wicked people, and then they claimed that it is god's words
if you want to know the exact real story or Moses, please go to the most authentic book Quran, these whole details are mentioned but without fabrication. I hope you think again of Islam, we, Muslims believe in Moses and Jesus. the main difference that we believe that Jesus was a prophet like Moses Ibrahim Mohamed, but not God
I'm a progressive-liberal agnostic but I want to see this sh*t.
The reasons are:
1. Christian Bale (you already know)
2. Ridley Scott
3. Great Visual Aspect
4. Other Great Actors/Actresses (e.g. Sigourney Weaver)
5. Do I need to go on...
*****
They believe that have something to fulfill because they're in service to God. It's an ingenious form of slavery and mind control.
*****
Dude I'm not going to start a fight with you. I'm just telling you my opinion. I never said I have anything against the possibility of a God. I just have a problem with the social structures of religion.
*****
Conclusions is what defines us...partially.
*****
Don't beat yourself up man. Being human may be our greatest weakness but also our greatest strength. You remember that...
it will be a great fantasy epic.. hopefully
This trailer set new standards, the music and editing is epic!
Why do we, as humans, always feel the need to be superior to the other in knowledge? "My belief is more correct that yours" "What you believe is stupid" "This is why your view is false" Why can't we just acknowledge every belief and leave contradictions to our own buried? Respect what is real for the other and not feel superior because we feel it is "false". Faith is never false. Belief is never false. It's alive in everyone one of us. Different yes. But that is what we all are, we are all different. And if you really feel the need to justify your belief or faith because of some contradiction, sounds to me that you're just trying to prove some ideal point, not to the person, but to yourself. Just put your opinions aside and listen from time to time. You'll hear some interesting stuff about others. It doesn't mean you have to feel threatened by it, but more amazed that their possibility exists in them. And that's fascinating. Being closed minded will only allow you to NOT progress your belief or faith more.
***** How do you know atheism isn't the only truth? How do you know Buddha isn't the one truth?
Why do you choose to believe that the bronze aged mythology is the one truth when there is nothing that points to it being, you know: true?
Sshhppoonnggllee stated what needed to be said. However I'll quickly add that people are free to believe what they wish, however when people are hurt based on another's belief, a line has been crossed. The suicide bombing community for example is ENTIRELY faith based. This must be fought against at all costs.
Egypt is in Africa, true. It does have a black popluation but Egypt was also part of the Greek Empire under Alexander the Great and after but not at the time of the Exodus. Egypt also was a melting pot of cultures because of the trade routes from the East, West and Africa that passed threw it.
U a fool to say that u know before Alexander conquered Egypt there were only black peopl it has been proved many times the peopl who live in Egypt now are arabics coming from the conquering of Islam
david williams
who has proved this? A history book written by some guy who didn't live in the era?
You're right Annabella. It's astounding how little, people know about history. Funny, they ask you how you know about this history. It's as if they know better. They ask you to prove it. Can THEY prove what THEY think they know? Southern Egypt today is inhabited by people we know call 'BLACK AFRICAN.' For colonial purposes, the british sowed confusion by calling them 'Nubians.' They are not the original Nubians/ Kushites. The Nubians of the days of Ancient Egypt are the ancestors of a very dark people who are also very tall, that are known by various names like Dinka, Fur, Shilluk, Nuba among others. Northern Egypt, really the rim along the Mediterannean, is mostly inhabited by people who are mixed Arab and African, pure Arabs, and Mixes between ancient Greeks, Persians, Romans, Arabs, Africans and Turks (Egypt much later became a colony of the Ottoman chiefdom). Having been a superpower it attracted people from all over the world, towards the end of it's time. Much like America has been of late. Oh yes, and Native Americans also visited, lived in, and mixed with peoples of Ancient Egypt. But the core fact is, initially, it was a 'Black' (Black is an ambiguous term used to refer to a vast array of peoples who mainly inhabited Africa, Southern Arabia and Southern Asia, as well as Australia) kingdom. Hundreds of satellite empires sprung up across Africa, as Ancient Egypt and it's southern neighbor, Kush/ Nubia/ Cush were collapsing.
Yeah but they were still brown. Not white.
david williams Funny the Ancient Egyptians do not depict themselves that way. They look quite middle-Eastern
"Let my people go!"
"Why should I?"
"Because I'm Batman!"
I'm so excited for this!!!!!!! I absolutely loved the Prince Of Egypt, I'll certainly enjoy this one ^.^ Anyone else? (:
Me aswell
Next stop, Malcolm X will be played by Robert Downey Jr
RDJ already played a black man. It was epic.
Ramses looks like he is being bullied throughout the whole movie. I expected him to be tough, arrogant, asshat. I am sure Edgerton can pull it off though. Movie still looks great.
There is a lot more psychology to someone just being "arrogant". Maybe they are trying to go even deeper with the story. Also, it's hard to really tell how the director is going to portray Moses' relationship and interaction with Ramses just by judging a two minute trailer.
I can appreciate a more realistic approach instead of portraying him as a ruthless monster. As a human who merely does what has been indoctrinated and is just doing what was normal in society.
str8todamoney Exactly, and because it is an Ridley Scott film, you can expect really good character development anyway, without going with some sort of general stereotype. Depth, basically.
Nostalgic_Chaos True. I watched Noah last night and it wasn't what I thought it was going to be. This could be the same.
HandsomeQuacker That's unfortunate. I've not seen that movie yet. For whatever reason, I didn't expect much from it anyway, but Ridley Scott directed one of my all time favourite movies, Blade Runner, so I always expect quality from him, and good character development like we saw in Gladiator.
I won’t judge people for hating this movie, but I love it. For your more mainstream interpretations of the 10 commandments, you still have the Cecil one, and the Dreamworks one. Both superb films, that I also love. The reason this works for me is because of the brilliant tone, and original take on the plagues. This is a gorgeously filmed master work, and people are welcome to disagree, but you won’t change my mind.
A lot of people are offended because the main actors are white. Im black and I have nothing against this movie. If you don't like this movie because you are black,yellow or something else then make your own movie.
Peace brotha, i agree with you however question for you. If in the future when we are no longer here and our grandchildren were taught that Tupac was european and a movie depicting this hit theatres would you still feel ok about that? See these movies are entertainment for those that know but what about the generation not studied in history. European children are looking at this as history too and thinking how great they were in Africa/ Egypt to be able to do those feets. Melanated people are always depicted as slaves or commoners in historical films. Our children are not taught the right knowledge in school because we are the enemy and movies/media is part of warfare. Peace.
Anthony Silver I totally understand what you mean, and no I wouldn't feel okay.
@@anthonys.7086 I know this is a very late comment but... damn... if you are teaching your kids history from Hollywood movies, you have another thing coming buddy.
WTF was that horse doing in the end? I mean you think it would run away a bit earlier rather than waiting for the water to get really close.
I Still Remember The Chills
When I Saw This Trailer In Theatres For The First Time
other people's reactions:
-ewww Christians
-ewww Jews
-ewww Religion
-ewww Batman
Me: RIDLEY SCOTT IS MAKING ANOTHER MOVIE SET IN THE ANCIENT WORLD!!! yeahh!!!!
Another movie with Sigourney. Can't wait.
This movie looks like a pure epic and I love every second of it
So Moses is Batman? Wow, it finally makes sense!!!
Looks good but I have the feeling that this movie will offend what we Christians believe and the Bible... Just like the Noah movie did, I will wait and see... Looks good though!
Ridley Scott is a great director, this film should be good.
And it still good
Thank you for calling and sharing
I thought Moses was gonna gear up in a Batman uniform in any second.
🤣
A movie where they still cast white actors to play Egyptian characters make this film incredible. It's the year 2014, it is safe to say that more than half of the world has already figured out that the original settlers of Kemet were that of black Egyptians who later mixed with Libyans, Romans, Persians, Arabs, Greeks, etc. It is like casting a Middle Eastern to play a North Korean. It simply doesnt go together nor make any sense. Other than that, it is a really good epic movie to see with friends solely for entertainment purposes. I loved it.
Paul McBride I think you're right.
Best trailer ever for a movie that absolutely blew. I’m still baffled at how Ridley Scott could take the book of Exodus and turn it into a boring an slog.
wow ! there is alot of amazing movies to watch :
1º The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies
2º Drácula Untold
3º Exodus
It looks rather adulterated. Moses was indeed adopted as a son by an Egyptian princess, but there is little mention of the name of the Pharaoh, and how he was related to Moses via Moses's adoption, not to forget that Moses actually got exiled because he killed an Egyptian after seeing that the Egyptian was oppressing an Israelite, and hence, did not have any more access to the Egyptian court thereafter.
Its actually racist to cast actors based on their race rather then acting skills. The casting here is very strong.
Yeah but if King Arthur was black y’all would have a conniption fit!
The film looks ok but I think playing off biblical stories is the wrong direction to go, causes controversy and unwanted attention.
Nah...dude...it's all about money, controversy is great advertisement & it's free
Yeh was just thinking that aha
I'm not in the slightest religious, and I enjoy movies based off biblical stories. Though, I hate those movies based on Jesus like The Passion or "Son of God"
"Unwanted attention"? Hah, good one!
KingSwillz Son of God I didn't bother to see but what was wrong with Passion of the Christ?
The casting makes this a comedy. Wow. A bunch of lily white Egyptians and Hebrews.... I just can't take this seriously. And to make it worse, the film's uses black actors specifically as beggars, thieves, and other sordid Egyptians. In 2014, this kind of blatant racism and white-washing is still rampant in Hollywood.
Please find an entire cast comprised of area appropriate, high class actors. Don't worry I'll wait.
***** Yes. Getting high quality actors of colour is quite difficult.
G33K01345 you are so full of shit. lol. That is a lazy excuse for cultural appropriation. Good night!
Sajiz Reighn
You're an idiot for even comparing a cast in a movie to 1920's racism. Thanks for the laugh though.
ha lets get mad about a movie that looks like shit anyway
"There is no ruse, there is an old truth, an old secret that many do not want to believe and the opportunity of wicked people who want to use it .And only time running out "
A lot of people are complaining that the roles of these people are played by fair-skinned actors. While I completely agree that it makes no historical sense, there are other more glaring things in these period pieces that NO ONE ever complains about; namely, the language used in the movie.
If we're talking about representing the ancient Hebrew/Egyptian culture...Why are these people speaking English to begin with? If it's authenticity we're striving for, we need to be consistent all the way. You can't just complain about the physical appearance and neglect the other hickups.
I wish there would be someone other than Mel Gibson who's willing to finally use the original languages of the periods that are being represented in these movies. Subtitles aren't the devil. People can read.
Maybe they're speaking English because the movie is being released in the USA, a predominantly English speaking country. But I see your point about historical inaccuracy. They made Moses out to be some conquering warrior when he had actually been living as a shepherd in the desert for 40 years after fleeing Egypt because he killed someone.
Ashley Ocampo That too.
But the whole "it's released for English speaking audiences" thing just doesn't make sense to me. Inglorious Basterds was a blockbuster as well, and Tarantino pulled it off without making the Germans and Frenchmen speak freaking English among themselves! Makes absolutely no sense, especially when it doesn't require a huge budget to make the movie in the original language, and provide subtitles. People can read, for goodness sake! It's what we foreigners do all the time when we watch movies in English. It isn't that catastrophic :P
regelemihai So what language should they be speaking? Egyptian? Almost no one alive that speaks that and certainly no one that speaks it the way it was spoken several millennial ago. Coptic? Again no one speaks that and it wouldn't be correct for the time period. Arabic? historically incorrect for the time period. There is no way for them to make this film linguistically accurate.
Terrex123 Egyptian and Hebrew, yes. They managed to make The Passion in Aramaic and Latin, both of which are also dead languages. There are Egyptologists today and experts in ancient mid-east languages who do speak Egyptian.
It doesn't matter what language the movie is made in. Seriously. As long as the facts are right
As I watched Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings, I will watch Exodus.
No Oscar for Christian Bale yet? His past performances have been really good. Hopefully he gets it in the future.
*_Never ever invite the wrath of God!_****
*_Pharaoh_* learnt that in a *_Hard Way!_*
WHY DO THEY HAVE A WHITE GUY PLAYING AN "EGYPTIAN"????
Because that's Hollywood
Can't wait to see this. Any body know anything about the track in the background? Love the sound.
I love this story! Did you know 73% of the world are Christians? And this is a critical event in biblical history because that is when we received instructions from God for the first time after Noah :)
Did you know this story is just a story and is proven to have never happened? That being said, it is one of the better stories in the Bible.
Someguy029 ok then, give me 5 sources that have proven this to be fictional?
Someguy029 Did you know it was never proven to have never happened?? Did you know they cant find things to prove it did or didn't happen? Do you know that that's not proof it didn't happen? Did you know that? Did you know that you and milions of other people have been trying to disprove the God of Abraham ever sense... oh yea, this very story, and it is 2014, and you are still have just as much trouble as you were back then..... Did you know that that should say something about the truth of this "Bible" and "God"
Someguy029 Lmao 73%... I think he means 2.2 billion out of 7 billion Humans.... which comes out to less than 1/3 or around 31% of the world population.
Nathan Narwhal
That's like me saying unicorns don't exist and your argument being that there isn't proof they don't exist. Shameful argument really and proves how easily masses of people can be misguided into gibbberjabber. On a more serious note... Still better than twilight.
A grand visual feast
look at the special efects... marvelous added with the pure and honest heart of rydly scott.i will definitely watch this..if possible, from a multiplex
Oh, for f&*k sake, why is it EVERYTIME an actor who's not the race of the character he's/she's playing there's always that one guy that goes "why is he/ she white, why is he black, stop changing races, blah, blah,blah". Can't you just enjoy the movie for what it is !" That being said, this looks like great, can't wait to see it.
eh,not quite that simple. Casting is a big part of a movie. It is too distracting. Imagine if I did a story about ancient china staring an all Black cast. It would make no sense lol
Ummm, I dont think the director paid attention in history class.
looks really good
This and The Hobbit will be my December movies
But they'd already unearthed proof that there weren't really slaves building shit in Egypt but more like skilled workers. In short... Egypt could have been just like your regular modern "big company with 9-5 workers".
Yup. This entire story has been proven fictitious. Moses was proven to have never existed. The exodus was proven to have never happened. The supposed three million slaves that built the pyramids didn't exist. Hell, there weren't even three million people on Earth at the time this takes place. It's just a story. That being said, it's one of the better stories in the Bible IMO. It entertained me as a Child at least in the one cartoon feature.
Someguy029 Do you expect me to believe you? Why should I just believe something written by someguy?
Same argument could be made for the Bible LOL
Buffalo Black ha ha ha u right about that:)
Why is Moses white?
More importantly, just why in general?
***** It has to do with the video I just fucking commented on?
Because Christian Bale has star power and acting chops, pick another actor that looks like Moses who can do that.
Mr. Rize AG
Racist much?
***** what the fuck do you mean what's it got to do with anything? And how is the man racist for asking a valid question?
Moses was not white you fucking idiot.
***** I don't think you know what racist means. Moses, if he even existed, would not have been white. I don't really care about being PC, but it seems arbitrary when there are plenty of popular dark-skinned actors.
Is it me or does bale typically get some of the coolest roles in movies?
Film was ban in Egypt for historical inaccuracy. Evidence for the bible is stacking up
+yojoe O That's what I thought.
That’s a dumb reason to ban somethng
i hear they're making "the last nigga on earth" starring tom hanks.
ROFLMAO
LMFAOOOOOOOO
Batman and Tom Buchanan... Nice.
what is the name of the song ?!
Sydney Wayser the song is Belfast Child.
Just watch The Prince of Egypt on Netflix or read the bible.
Are they located under Fantasy/Myths?
*****
Or the 10 commandments.
zoroaster91307 then why did you click on this vid???
***** hm and you know this how? I can say the same about the big bang because it was believed to what has happened and was written by someone as well, millions of people believe it even though it may not even be true. Im not saying this is a true story but your bashing something that could have actually happened. The God parts? maybe. everything else (the Jews being enslaved, them being freed and such) most likely happened. If you say that this is "all" myth which it isnt then the big bang and other earth like planets are also "myths"
According to the Bible's chronology Thutmose III would actually be the Pharaoh of the Exodus, well either him or his step mother. We have historical records of a Pharaoh by the name of Shosinque who invaded Canaan in the year 925BC. In the book of 1 Kings, it says that "In the fifth year of King Rehoboam's reign, King Shishak(Shosinque) of Egypt came up and attacked Jerusalem." So that brings us to 930BCE. 1 Kings says Solomon ruled for 40 years and that in the fourth year of his reign he built the Temple. So now we are at 966BCE. 1 Kings says that the temple was built 480 years after the Exodus. so that means the Exodus occurred at about 1446BCE during the reign of Thutmose III or possibly his stepmother Hatshepsut, whom was document as one of most prolific builders in ancient Egypt . According to the book of Exodus, Moses was 80 years old when he spoke with the Pharaoh of the Exodus, meaning that in 1526 the Pharaoh of the Oppression was Ahmose I, the pharaoh who drove the Semitic Hyksos out of Egypt.
Classic trailer!
My only problem is some ppl will get mad at Idris Elba and Michael B Jordan for being in comic book movies but then try to defend the bad casting in this movie.
Bale as Moses means he's considered on pair with Heston. I can life with that!
It is outrageous that the Egyptian civilization is rewritten in a fucked up way to match the beliefs of the followers of the bible.
For ancient Egyptians, all these events never happened. they never recorded them. they only existed in the imagination of an old rabbai somewhere in the forgotton middle eastern desert..
Oh Ramses the Great, your heroism and your great deeds for your people shall never be erased from memory. Rest in peace, you shall be remembered when all your enemies are forgotten.
Well from what I've heard the Egyptians had a selective memory. If something happened that they didn't like, they erased it from their history. We have evidence of this, for example, that one Pharoah that tried to make Aten the only God, and do away with the rest. When he died they tried to get rid of his doctrine, and stuff. I mean we still found it, but imagine all the shit that could've went down that they erased more effectively. So it's no great surprise that certain things weren't recorded or suppressed. If your pharaoh, who is a god on earth says something never happened, it didn't
Lamont Cranston these are not evidence. these are speculation. the bible talks about tribes not countries like egypt. the name for egypt in the bible is the tribe of Misr or misreem which was translated to egypt mistakenly. the real events of the bible are in a microscopic desert somewhere in northern Yemen desert. they never happened in Egypt of Greater Syria. colonialism however did a great job deceiving all of us to control the region.
Dude, this is a story, take it anyway you want. I'm watching for the entertainment value, not the historical perspective
Aizen66666 how do they know that it was even Ramses who was the pharaoh at that time. The bible never says anything about which pharaoh it is. And I as a Christian can tell you that the story of Moses went nothing like that.
jacobismyname100 no fue ramses fue el Faraon Tom
Looks promising.
Only if you're comparing it to transformers.
Nicholas Grimaldi With Christian Bale in the lead and Ridley Scott directing? I think you're exaggerating because it's a religious film. I say this an an anti-theistic atheist. This looks promising. The effects look great, the acting talent is promising, and the director is proven to be good.
Someguy029 I will give you it looks like crisp hi definition, that is all I will give you good sir.
Glad to see epic films return and looks like a wonderful cast, not to mention a great director too. I am looking forward to this film
I love these fantasy films! Its like The Hobbit and Thor!
***** LOL this aint history this is fiction based on history
***** hahahaha lol.
This isn't history, don't be stupid
I prefer Thor and The Hobbit. No infanticide in those movies!
***** No, they haven't
You go do YOUR research. Outside of the Bible
nathan roggow
I agree with you but I couldn't avoid a little laugh when the little mummy appeared though... it's too damned funny XD
Why cant they make a film about the other Religious stories that were created in that period like the story Romulus or Mythos, I've heard about Moses a million times, it's just boring. Make up a new one or use actual History like the Roman civil war or Hannibal's invasion, Hollywood is just re-using the same material even though they have a huge amount of Historical events both factual and mythological that they could use.
Aww..waiting for this movie so long,same as 300 part1&2 and hope there is a part3.
WHAT IS THE BACKING SONG FOR THIS??

Nah, I think I'll stick with the Prince of Egypt version. Much more better.
I usually try to avoid scrolling down below the description bar on RUclips videos. Whenever I happen to venture over to the comment section I am reminded of our wonderful propensity for narcissism and intense negativity. The fact that I am even compelled to invest these few seconds of my life to perpetuate this absolutely pointless conversation is just evidence to the fact. In an Ideal world, would it be reasonable to expect that a comment section ascribed for a specific video would have comments pertaining to that video? I thought the trailer was pretty cool. I thought that I could sit down, watch this movie and be entertained.
Why GODS and KINGS. Not God and Kings? Kings are many but God is only ONE
they are refering to the egyptian gods, and God.
dumbass egyptians had multiple gods and goddess..
hmm i see....
Rajhae Mcpherson There is no need to be an ass, just because the guy didn't understand it
If you can't use grammer; don't respond.
Why was bale casted as moses?....like anyone else...jason mamoa? Any fuckin body.
Cause he's a phenomenal actor that's why
Because, obviously Moses is Batman!

SPooner you sir, are so right.
casted??...casted??...are you illiterate?...did'nt pay attention at school?
The remaining 2014 it’s a faithful movie from 20th century Columbia and Scott free and Chernin entertainment.
i would love to see batman vs moses
Every historic figure were white! 100 years from now MLK JR and Malcolm x will be known as white men
The last nigga on Earth.. Starring Tom Hanks.
the cinematography looks gorgeous
Is everyone forgetting the part where this story is pure fantasy? Why is everybody throwing a fit about a fairytale / fictional characters?
Are you forgetting the part that 2 billion people on this planet(2 out of every 7 people) actually believe in this story
Only 2 Billion?
Mitch Walter I know right how disappointing humanity ended up with nearly 95% of the population believing in one mythological story or another.
Mitch Walter Before I begin, while I do believe in God, I do NOT believe in any of the current belief systems that is Christianity(or Judaism for that manner, as a whole). I'm not going to go into my beliefs and various reasons for them because they have little if anything to do with the topic at hand, I was just wanted to state my perspective.
There is actually a tremendous amount of scientific research and data that indicates the events surrounding The Exodus story were not only possible, but plausible. Even the specific events of the parting of the Red Sea and the chain of events that lead to the downfall of the Pharaoh and his Dynasty alike.
Im going to save myself the trouble of posting dozens of individual links supporting my claim, and just tell you to do your own damn research before making false statements and accusations just because they seem more logical from your perspective.
You can start by simply Googling something to the affect of "scientific research into the events surrounding the events of the exodus"
or just click...
www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=scientific+research+into+the+events+surrounding+the+events+of+the+exodus+
(actual link to that particular query)
Not sure.They must be worried that they will mess up a true story,and non fiction event.
What's the name of this song?

First 2 comments I appreciate ^^... just for that thumbs up :)
Since there are so many myths and half-truths being spread, here is a mostly unbiased summary of the whole ancient Egyptian "race" issue based on the last few decades of evidence-based research by Egyptologists:
Egypt was not originally one kingdom, but was originally two kingdoms. Lower Egypt (northern Egypt) was inhabited by brown-skinned people we'd today call "Middle-Eastern". Upper Egypt (southern Egypt) was inhabited by black-skinned people we today call "Nubians" (who resemble Sudanese and Somalis in appearance).
Around 3100 BC, Upper Egypt expanded northwards and conquered Lower Egypt, creating the unified kingdom of Egypt. The first dynasty were Upper Egyptians (i.e. black "Nubians") but many later dynasties were from Lower Egypt (i.e. brown "Middle-Easterners").
In other words, the idea that Egyptians were just a single "race" (whether "black" or "Middle-Eastern") is a myth. Egypt was, in fact, the world's first multi-ethnic, "multi-racial" civilization. And over time, both Upper and Lower Egyptians eventually merged into a single Egyptian identity. As a result, we see wall paintings where Egyptians clearly distinguish themselves from their neighbours, lighter than Nubians but darker than Syrians & Lybians.
Another myth is the idea that modern Egyptians are Arab invaders, which is nonsense. In Roman Egypt, there are hundreds of Fayyum mummy paintings demonstrating that Egyptians in Roman times looked hardly any different to Egyptians today, centuries before any Arabs went to Egypt. And those Fayyum mummies are genetically similar to both ancient Egyptians in Ramses' time and modern Egyptians today. The majority of Egyptians today are mostly descended from ancient Lower Egyptians, while Egypt's Nubian minority today are mostly descended from ancient Upper Egyptians.
However, one thing we can agree on is that there were, most definitely, no white-skinned Egyptians in ancient times. The only "white people" in Egypt at the time of Ramses would have been a very small number of Greek "Sea Peoples" whose presence in Egypt was mostly limited to being either slaves or pirates, i.e. among the lower classes. The only time Greeks ever became Pharaohs was after Alexander's conquest a thousand years after Ramses. However, the genetic contribution of both Greeks and Arabs to the modern Egyptian gene pool was very small, and mostly limited to a few major cities, like Cairo and Alexandria.
love this trailer song
Stop spending millions of dollars on movies about superstitious drudgery.
Complain as much as you want about semantics, this is a movie, and it looks damned good. Will be going to see it.
I was so excited for this movie.....
and so disappointed.
Everyone like "aw Moses is white" "aw its God killing children again" "aw its a movie about the bible" "aw Hollywood needs more refinement in their movie choices"
So much hate, but I can help you out in three simple moves!
1: Watch trailer.
2: Dislike.
3: Move mouse to top-right of screen and press the X button.
... you missed one:
4. And protest via comments by talking about how straight up white supremacist the film industry has gotten.
Esther sparklebutt "How straight up white supremacist the fil industry has gotten"
Last time I checked Dwayne Johnson is Samoan.
Sam Marama The Rock doesn't count. Theres races (black, white, asian, etc), and then there's The Rock. The People's Actor. The People's Race. :)
Sorry, you need to check again.
"His father is of Black Nova Scotian (Canadian) origin, and his mother is of Samoan heritage."
WOW that's a movie, finally something really epic in 2014, Noah is great too.
The number of racist black people on here makes me sad.
The Egyptians were not black. They were Mediterranean, which was quite pale in comparison to Africans. Skin colour ran a gambit in Egyptian territory, but the ruling elite were by no means black.
The Hebrews were darker skinned than, say, an Irishman, but they were not black, either. They were a Semitic people whose ancestry is shared with the Arab. Tan skin, not black. The Semitic peoples were descended from Europeans and had far paler skin than the Africans.
This movie isn't racist. People claiming it is racist? Definitely racist.
Does no one even realize how they gave most of the actors tans? Like, really? Can't get an actual person with dark skin? Hollywood and their white washing.
Factsss!!!
Guys I watched this on my birthday and it was a great movie! Worth my time and money to see this movie with some of my mates. Thinking about buying the movie when it comes out!!
I hope Moses does his Batman voice >_<
Ramseys: Who are you?
Batman: I'm... MOSES!!
The Exodus story was perfectly told in "The Prince of Egypt." Why do we need some washed up director's interpretation of a story we've already heard before?
CGI looks excellent now....lets hope its biblicaly accurate according to events.FYI King tut was the first born of ramses 2nd. He was killed by the spirit of death in the 10th plague.
Gandalf: the early years, the Two Pyramids, or tall Hobbit leads tall Dwarves to fight short Dragon?
I mean God, what's the point of stealing from all sorts of literary works if it all ends up looking exactly the same anyway?
Saw the trailer of this. Ten Commandments?
They're calling it "Exodus: Gods and Kings" Does that imply that there's going to be a sequel about Joshua?
Joel Arellano
I think you mean Ten Plagues...?
Brian Murphy "Exodus: 40 years wondering around". That could work :)
A film about Joshua would offend literally everyone linked anyhow to the Middle East and/ or any Abrahamic religion.
This movie was wicked
This movie is so underrated! I havent watched it all these years because of the criticism. It's a really cool concept of the pwycho delusional Moses rhat hears voices. Loved it!
Can someone tell me the name of the female singing?
