I was hoping Orlando wasn't going look like a goof as a hero.
(Even though he was awesome as Legolas).

I think I'll make it to this one...:toocool:


Orlando Bloom doesn't deliver a memorable performance, but the movie was a whole was pretty good as far as production goes.

It was said that at the height of filming, they incorporated more than 25,000 extras.

Might watch this if nothing better to do. Alexander was a hole but Troy was awesome. Hoping I won't be disappointed

I didn't think Troy was that great...it was ok to watch but nothing special...Brad Pitt's too pretty for that role I just didn't buy it :o

Troy was terrible.....And to think, they probably spent a lot of money on that and didn't even come close to making it back.

....And what's up with supposed Greek people having British accents?!

That's what I was wondering while watching Alexander...seemed that half of his commanders were Scottish/Irish/British :stongue: but I still liked it

You're kidding right ? I certainly hope so...cause either you have a very refined sense of which movies are good, or you've just never seen a truly crappy movie before. Allow me to present exhibit A. Some of the worst movies ever commited to celluloid :


  • You got served
  • Glitter
  • Gigli
  • Son of the Mask
  • Alone in the Dark
  • Cool as Ice
  • Turbo: A power Ranger Movie
  • Kazaam


If Alexander is worse then any of the movies listed above, i'm never going to watch another film again. While it wasn't the opus people expected, it wasn't total rubbish either. Kingdom of Heaven on the other hand looks very promising. I'll probably check it out sometime this weekend.

Way to refute! Hahahah... ;)

I didnt think it was complete garbage either, despite the hate-bandwagon everyone seemed to be on about the movie before!

the best actors are British. Unless of course you want Tom Cruise and Josh Hartnett filling ancient historical roles.

I thought Alexander missed the point on the legendary general, but not because of the homosexuality issues. It's a proven fact Alexander, and many Greeks of his time, had sex with both women and men. Deal with it.

The movie, in my eyes, failed because it tried to paint Alexander as some kind of world unifying prophet, rather than the skilled and rather brutal military leader with the thirst of conquest that he actually was.

Love movies like this. Most likely watching it tonight.........anything with Orlando on the screen is good for me...:eyes:

Film was wack.

Orlando can't carry the lead, his character's story made no sense, there was barely any emotional involvement in the movie, the love story was stupid, the token bad guy was the lisping metro from XXX, and they killed off jedi master qui-gon jin, which is just inexcusable.

Oh and the love interest looked like a guy I work with, which was creepy enough.
