from what i have gathered, mel gibson is depicting the mayans as IMPLODING, and "coming to an end".. this is utterly false.. the mayan civilization was conquered by the spanish, who robbed them of their land & wealth, and slaughtered their people.. if he wants to make a film about the mayans, why not do a DANCES WITH WOLVES/THE NEW WORLD type of film which portrays the tragedy of colonialism...
