Tenochtitlan city shots - Hernan 2019 - (not ordered) [SEE DESCRIPTION]

(no sound, sorry)

[shinichimochizuki]

It's not all of the clips, but most of them.

[lopcaarald]

Con el potencial que tiene una historia así, y siempre este plagada de actores mediocres y manejo de cámara simplista.
Pocas cosas hay más épicas que la conquista de Mesoamérica.

I don't understand why in films involving medieval settings or Christian chivalry, directors ALWAYS put filters to eclipse sunlight. It seems like there were no sunny days! All films are the same! It's a subliminal, partial and dishonest distortion.

This show had so much promise but i was terribly dissapointed... They make the spaniards look as epic and genious warriors and the aztecs dumb, only reason they conquered them was because they became allied with other regional warlords that did their dirty work for them, and smallpox wiped out most of the aztec armies as well.

EDIT . Thanks for your valuable opinions folks, i want to make it clear that I never denied the cunning of Cortéz, i was emphasizing how the greatness of the Mexica´s engineering, technology from a well run huge city is not shown, Tenochtitlan looks like a big town rather than a great canal city with entire districts and symmetric streets and canal layouts, with a walled citadel and defensive bridges, as a commenter well said, this show takes inspiration from the Conquistadores and forgets about the Mexica.

Lastima que nunca salió la 2da temporada, la Pandemia la frenó y luego nunca salió

this tv show is amazing. fair and accurate. takes no sides. an objective tale of the conquest.

[sixbeesix]

You should do the same thing but with the movie Exodus. Those shots of ancient Egypt are amazing.

[raulpetrascu]

Does anyone know if there will be a season 2? The show ends half way in the story

I know the planned other amazon show about Cortes with Javier Bardem was cancelled and that was being filmed alongside it

0:01 Is not Tenochtitlan, but Zempoala (in the modern Mexican state of Veracruz, home of the Totonaca nation).

El Imperio Azteca era parecido en algunas cosas al comienzo del Imperio Egipcio por el 3.000 al 4.000 antes de Cristo solo que los egipcios ya comenzaron a trabajar el bronce por esos tiempos y no eran caníbales. Mesoamérica estaría unos 6.000 a 7.000 años atrasado en relación a Europa y Asia cuando llegaron los Conquistadores

Hi, what is the name of this movie/ series?

[JohnnyRico]

I don't know how to pronounce the name so I just call this city "Tenno Titty Land."

[LoquenGames]

Esa pelicula no le hace honor a la Gran Tenochtitlan, se ve sola, vieja y descuidada, cuando se relata que parecia irreal ls ciudad, y los atuendos de los aztecas, tampoco era asi, llevaban penachos, usaban mucho el verde, y se pintaban o usaban trajes de jaguar etc

[andresmora]

"En tanto que permanezca el mundo no acabará la fama y la gloria de México 🇲🇽 Tenochtitlan".

[matthew]

Moctezuma was not an old and fat man at all 👎

[gerardomartinez]

Se olvidaron de tzilacatzin el guerrero azteca que hizo temblar a los españoles 😂😂

[tzilacatzignelguerreroazte]

Se acabaron los sacrificios y ellos los quemaban en la hoguera qué curioso para su conveniencia

[JackFrost]

can you imagine if the aztecs where still around

[alkssalazar]

muy buena ilustración, la historia de la infamia de los traidores

[williamkuhns]

When Hernan Cortes and some of his soldiers climbed the "Templo Mayor" and entered inside the two shrines one to Huitilipotchle (wee-tzee-lay-poach)(G-d of war) painted red and the other for Tlaloc (tah-lah-loak) (G-d of rain) is the blue painted shrine he described the walls were literally plastered with dried human blood and the smell was overwhelming! At a time when Europeans didn't bathe and the stink of everyday life that's saying alot!!! Huitzilipochle was depicted as a humming bird and the brother of the dismembered female G-d depicted as the flat stone disc at bottom of "Templo Mayor" stairs. Can't remember how to spell her name?
