the toes isn't what matters since the horse also moves on its toes. it has to do with the sheer size/weight. a gallop is gait that takes all four legs off the ground at the same time, they are just too heavy for that nonsense.

Not helped by the fact that Emmerich called the character of Danny “straight-acting”. Way to shoot your message in the foot, Ron!

I'm surpriced Matthew didn't mention that the film implies the false god is an alien from Atlantis. When the protagonist ask what's the deal with the god-emperor, the African tribesman who speaks English says something like "some people say they came from the stars. Others say they arrived from the sea after their homeland sunk. They were three initially, but now only one is left" (the people who watched _Ancient Aliens_ probably noticed that the last part sounds similar to the theory that the pyramids where build by Atlantean refugees. Especifically that Isis, Osiris and Set were three royal siblings from Atlantis whose advanced technology and incestuous family drama became the basis of Egypcian religion)

This movie makes "more sense" when you realize it's based on the Ancien Astronauts theory. I swear, Roland Emmerich is the film director version of that conspiracy nut no one believe. In fact, many of his movies are based on conspiracy theories; Stargate also has the Ancient Astronauts theory, 2012 is about the Mayan Prophecy theory and Anonymus is about both about the Authorship theory AND the Virgin Queen Gave Birth to a Hidden Tudor Successor thoery.

gladly we have science, logic and intellect - so we don't have to believe))) EVEN if you skip all the absence of logic in the movie - it is stll a shitty movie, bad acting, bad script, bad montage, bad visuals, it's just bad... it happens

When I watched this with my daughter (11 yo), she was completely confused by the cinematic geography. I couldn't explain. Historical inaccuracies and sketchy production values make this a really dumb movie.
@KeybladeMasterAndy7 жыл бұрын
I think the geography in this movie is supposed to be some form of Pangaea. No less dumb.

No, because continental drift takes millions of years. The continents move at about the same rate your fingernails grow. 12,000 years ago, their arrangement was essentially identical to what it is now.

It totally makes sense because the events take place after the Finno-Korean hyperwar, that's why they have "advanced" technology, because they're relics.

what would have made this movie awesome is if at the end what they ended up building was a star gate and the goa'uld walked through it and implanted our hero with a symbiote and he was effectively Ra. hidden Star Gate prequel!

Totally agree. all the weird geography and pseud-history is reminiscent of the Hyborian age but long before Conan was born. Robert E. Howard said that the Hyborian age is set around 14,000 - 10,000 BC.

As a mammoth lover, I am insulted of how they portray the mammoths. The mammoths are way too large and they gallop. I still love mammoths but the ones in this movie aren’t good enough for me. Manny from Ice Age and the mammoths from Walking with Beasts are far better. They are more accurately portrayed. This movie, after all, was made by Roland Emmerich, the guy who made the awful Godzilla 1998 movie. As a Godzilla fan, I don’t count it as a Godzilla film as Godzilla is portrayed terribly, being weak, and not having atomic breath. Anyway, I said enough.

Heck the owners of the Godzilla IP didn't like Roland Emmerich's take either. I mean they put their own version of it in Godzilla: Final Wars under the name of simply "Zilla" and had it die quickly.

It's really a shame this movie was so terrible. I want to see a movie with mammoths, saber tooth tigers, or just one that focuses on animals in general. Not the Disney clothes-wearing kind, although Fantastic Mr Fox doesn't suck, I mean a Warriors movie (the cats). I haven't watched Watership Down yet, only because I'm still looking for a great live-action movie about animals.

@@scottylewis8124 Actually, Steven Strait (the guy that played said kid and protagonist of this) was recently in a show named The Expanse that lasted for 7 years on Syfy and Amazon Prime. The series just ended this month, and it ran since 2015, so not too shabby for him.
