Forrest Gump? The white guys are the problem there too, except for those mentally or physically handicapped.

If you set a movie in 10,000 BC, you should go out of your way to emphasize that it’s set somewhere cool that only existed then, like the salt flats where the Mediteranian is now.

There are three problems with this movie, in my opinion:

1. There were NO advanced civilizations living in elaborate cities and making massive stone monuments in 10,000 BC.

2. The area that is now Egypt was verdant as recently as 3000 years ago. It was most definitely not desert in 10,000 BC.

3. Woolly Mammoths lived in the tundra, i.e., Siberia, not in Africa.

Gosh, I feel weird. Now I know what it’s like to be one of the outcast because I LOVED it. Thought it was great. Enjoyed the fact that is fairly clean, plot was for me riveting and cool. I guess I am color blind because I didn’t pick up on any racial overtones. Just thought it was great and highly recommend it.

Carl, I actually met somebody who made the same claim regarding Lord of the Rings and I was “Uh, the WHITE wizard in the 1st movie, pretty bad guy there, knocking down all them trees.” Selective visual-ness I suppose.

I’ll probably still see 10,000 BC just because.

I think you’re overeacting. All the God’s servants were dark-skinned. And the cavemen looked like they’d pass the paper bag test.

Well, maybe they’re trying to get back at Lord of the Rings lol. I remember some libtards were saying the Lord of the Rings movies were racist because the only dark-skinned humans in there were villains. (When actually it was just following the book,s which described the Easterlings and Southrons as dark-skinned).

Nah, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was on purpose.
