Ok, I've always been a fan of ancient Greek history. I know there's a few other history buffs out there... who else is afraid that this movie is going to turn out like Troy?

I'd rather not see Alexander become another over-dramatized girlyman.

I was just refering to the girlyman comment.

Sheesh. If you consider butt-sex to be effeminate, that might make him a girlyman. Unless he only pitched. I guess that would make him butch.

I just want to see Angelina Jolie. I'd pitch it in her pooper.

I reread Alexander of Macedon by Peter Green a couple of weeks ago and there is no way in hell hollywood can make Alexanders life fit a two hour movie. It would also be to complicated for the average mush brained movie goer to follow although I understand they are going spand a quarter of the movie focusing on his relationship with Bagoas, as if somehow his relationship with a eunuch took up a quarter of Alexanders life. Typical hollywood.

If you want a girly-man depiction of Alexander, watch that anime "Reign." They used to show it on Cartoon Network. Buncha guys runnin' around with no pants.

They never really make a biography anyway -- it's just a famous or historical person in a regular plot driven movie.

Okay, I caught a couple episodes of this.

Either way, it pretty much left me saying "wtf" to myself repeatedly.

Be great if they showed Alexander conquer Egypt or something and then find a big burly captive to *** pound him.

Imagine the action figures!

You liked kung fu grip? Wait untill you see the Sphincter of doom!
