Erick Avari does such a good job in this movie. I love his character. Such a wasted death! P.S. You need to watch the Chosen. If you thought his acting was good in this, it is on such a different level in that show.
@20:10 they used to give prisoners menial tasks for no reason (walking on a wheel, hacking stone, spinning a grinder) to dehumanise them, keep them active but on monotonous tasks, it was cruel punishment (idk if they did it everywhere, but they defs did it in the uk)
@36:00 for reference, if we take year 1 AD to now (2025), we are 1 third of the way into ‘ancient egypt’ … WILD
@38:50 people have pointed out that Jonathon’s behaviour is very reminiscent of ptsd, he most likely fought in ww1 & his drinking & humour are coping mechanisms
@55:50 funfact: there is no evidence of mass jewish slavery in egypt
@1:15:10 Mansa Musa caused an economical collapse in egypt when he left cos he spent so much gold lmao
@1:16:26 & yet the shwezigon pagoda continues to be reguild the whole building in gold leaf lmao
Has the crew seen Journey to the centre of the earth? Thats such an underrated movie that’d be a good reaction or high & dry (honestly lets just have a brendan frasier week lol)
is there no full length for high and dry ?
@1:15:20 No. No there isn’t
….i know that I shouldn’t but I am frothing at the mouth about how rick call Set or Seth, He is the god of Chaos, storms, and the evil parts of the desert. (even as a kid, I have had a great fascination with mythological gods)
Its wild to me that I put off watching this movie when I was younger because I thought it was a scary/horror movie. Definitely became my favorite after finally watching it……(during the daytime ðŸ¤ðŸ˜…) and realizing it was so much more. 💙💜💛
