I say that because of the numerous historical inaccuracies in the film, and the fact that Alexander is potrayed as bisexual.

Is that movie so bad? I considere watching it, but I'm very sceptical as I suspect it to be another movie which has almost nothing to do with the historical truth. Is that the case with Alexander?
As for the bisexual part, that is no "sex sells measure" but a historical fact.

Geez, Nick you have the highest daily post rate of any of us.  :o

I think I might have to seriously consider that 10,000 post level with the way you're going.  :lol:

Yes, while I haven't seen it myself, my older brother saw it. He said  that the film has no connection to the historic Alexander the Great. So you are right in saying, the film has no basis in historical truth.

I'm not sure why it premieres later over here but I don't plan on seeing it...I'm not a big fan of going to theaters to watch a film...I just wait for it to come out. ;)

There is an atmosphere to the theatre that you just cant recreate at home. At least that my opinion

I second that notion! I love the cinema experience! Nothing like it! Yeah it's cool to watch everything in the comfort of your own home but I just love watching big movies on the big screen!  ;)

Ah, but even Littlefoot isn't permanent once you hit him. ;)  There is one more (unannounced) level - at 5,000 posts (should anyone reach it) you are an "Ultimate LBT Fan" and you have the group pic at the end of the film. ;)  If anyone shows signs of hitting 10,000 I'll give them one that simply says "Get a life!"  :lol

Well would you look at that. Many years later and Petrie himself has exceeded that number. :p

Then again, my daily post count is pretty high as well.
