When will HOLLYWOOD learn??

Gods of Egypt was really not about historical Egypt but a fantasy Egypt...unless the real history of Egypt included giant Gods and a flat Earth that had a God playing tug-of-war with the sun? Did you see the movie?

The rest of my response is from wikipedia: Because some of the characters, including a main character played by Matt Damon, are white in a movie set in medieval China, the film has been accused of whitewashing and using the white savior narrative.

Director Zhang Yimou clarified that Matt Damon is not playing a role that was originally conceived for a Chinese actor, he further criticized detractors for not being "armed with the facts" and stated that:

In many ways ‘The Great Wall’ is the opposite of what is being suggested. For the first time, a film deeply rooted in Chinese culture, with one of the largest Chinese casts ever assembled, is being made at tentpole scale for a world audience. I believe that is a trend that should be embraced by our industry.

this was a chinese film made by chinese directors and producers with little to no hollywood influence numb nuts. Here is what the chinese director has to say about 2 cent sjw comments like urs.
