> The movie uses a modern Mayan language for dialogue, uses Maya actors and depicts a religion still practiced today. This was great, part of what made it fun for me was a bit of diversity in this kind of... I guess you could call it an action movie. What point are you trying to make? > Moreover, practitioners of that religion were being actively killed for their practice only a decade prior. Okay, still not sure how that relates to the movie. > The analogy with nazis and europeans seems pretty different to me. I think it's very apt. > In the interest of having a more interesting discussion though, what would you require beyond the existing content of the film to consider it "problematic" (to use your word)? I would require reasonable evidence as opposed to shrill baseless and unfalsifiable handwringing that alleged experts believe lends them gravitas and demand we swallow unquestioningly. I remember the exact same type of hysterics and misinformation peddling around the "video games cause mass shootings". "Nazis and racists and oppression and terrorists and think of the children," and we're expected to shut off our capacity for rational thought. It's a tiresome and common last refuge of charlatans and grifters. Doesn't cut it for me.
