ON MAGELLAN'S FAMOUS VOYAGE
 |
| Magellan's was famous explorer from the 1500s |
As Deadline reports today,
Amazon has hired
Simon West to direct new historical mini series
BOUNDLESS about two 16th century explorers who set out to disprove the theory that the world is flat. Told in four episodes, it will be a story about Juan Sebastián Elcano and Ferdinand Magellan’s epic voyage around the world after they set sail from Spain 500 years ago. With Spain's national television as co-producer, the series, shooting this summer, will air next year on Amazon Prime. Last year, Spain had a rather beautiful animated feature Elcano and Magellan: The First Voyage Around the World which was strongly criticised in certain parts of the world for glamorizing the tyrannical colonizers.

Maybe this series will finally give those flat earth lunatics a little sense? They tend to believe everything that's on the screen these days anyway (thank you YouTube for producing a generation of morons) so let's hope this enlightens a few of them.
ReplyDeleteThe funny thing is that back in the 16th century most people actually believed the Earth was not flat.
DeleteSeems like the more we advance, the dumber we become.
DeleteThat has become so painfully obvious in recent decades.
DeleteMagellan’s voyage? Promising and fascinating!
ReplyDeleteHope they do an interesting casting.
DeleteI discovered Flat Earthers a few months ago and my mind was blown. They should tune into this one. Lol!! Regarding The Laureate, count me in!! Anything with a love triangle sadly gets me hooked.
ReplyDeleteTriangles are so yesterday, we need movies on pentangles and hexangles.
DeleteHahaha YES!
DeleteTotes!
