I know right
I'm looking at it again
I'm looking at it again
I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

I like Versailles on Netflix.

Re: UCLA Bruins
Is Versailles historical or just made up bullshit?
Sure, I could have stayed in the past. I could have even been king. But in my own way, I am king.

Re: UCLA Bruins
It's historical in the same sense that many grandma's were, at some point in history, pretty hot...

Re: UCLA Bruins
It's historical-ish. They get the main points of Louis XIV, but they def take some license. Like presenting the 'black baby' as fact, and they take license with some of the nobility.aTm wrote:Is Versailles historical or just made up bullshit?

Re: UCLA Bruins
I'm ok with some license, I'm ok, for example I love the Dumas Three Musketeers/Man in the Iron Mask books. Fine with changing of some details as long as its truly based on a lot of real events and historical personages. I'm not interested is something like Reign, in which some random lazy modern romance drama is just veiled in a veneer of a handful of historical names and places.

Re: UCLA Bruins
No, it's not like Reign, but it's not in the same ballpark as Dumas' work, either.
Think a bit less ginned up than HBO's "The Tudors" but def ballparkish to that.

Re: UCLA Bruins
Watched the first 2 episodes of Versailles last night. It's pretty good, although I then spent an hour refreshing my knowledge of Louis XIV, XV and XVI

I watched a bit of it, I'm annoyed that Louis XIV is a mewling, whining pussy.
