Basenji hieroglyphics in the movie The Ten Commandments

Off Topic
  • KipawaK

    What is it with the biblical Charleton Heston movies? I watch them every time they are on TV, just like watching White Christmas during the festive season.

    So here I am watching The Ten Commandments - wow, they have really worked on the film itself. It looks like it's in high definition. I keep looking for a basenji hieroglyphic - no sightings yet.

    I just looked up Pharaoh dogs, and found out that they have nothing to do with Egypt, but rather Malta. So which dogs were the ones a person would see in the hieroglyphics. Would it be a basenji?

    I have seen photos of 'glyphs with small curly tailed dogs as well as larger loopy-tailed dogs, some in the same scene. One can only assume the smaller curly tailed ones are the basenjis!

    Sorry, but I'd most likeley go for a beagle, that was my very first dog and he was awesome!! Got him off the street…my first 'rescue'...after that, crap, can I say this...a cat.....OUCH!!!...Yeah, I was very lucky with both my B pets, but as I get older, I'm not sure I would be able to handle a young B. However, as I look forward to retiring I'm more than happy to have multiple B's in my home. :) Older ones, like me :)

    Would you marry your basenji?

    MacPack: Yes, I know bestiality isn't illegal here - how stupid, and they did mention that on the radio. Also, the whole gang probably would platonically marry Topper, he is such a dear. My Shaye would REALLY like to marry Topper.

    Ibi_n_sane, have you reported them to web provider for violating copyright? In many cases this is the only way to get people to stop using copyrighted pictures.

    There is a commonly used dog in TV and commercials that is either a Rat Terrier, or a corgi/terrier/basenji/chi mix….I have seen in on law and order, and some other more recent commercials...might be that one. Or it could be a real B...I haven't seen either of the ones mentioned.
