    Alexander (2004)

    Outline
    Alexander (Farrel), the King of Macedonia, overthrows the Persian Empire, the Egyptians, and India over an eight-year period—with his lover and vizier, Hephæston, at his side.

    Summary
    The Macedonian conqueror, Alexander the Great (356-323 B.C.), conquered almost the entire known world of his era. Though Alexander made use of the well-oiled army created by his father, he pushed the limits of Macedonian and Greek power to levels King Philip could not have dreamed of.

    Cast
    The cast includes Colin Farrel (Daredevil, Phone Booth) as Alexander, Jared Leto (Fight Club, Panic Room) as Hephaeston, Anthony Hopkins (Hannibal, Red Dragon) as Ptolemy, Rosario Dawson (Josie & The Pussycats, Men In Black II) as Roxanne, Angelina Jolie (Tomb Raider, Tomb Raider: The Cradle Of Life) as Olympias and Jonathon Rhys-Meyers (Bend It Like Beckham, The Emporer's Wife) as Cassander. Other notables include Val Kilmer (Top Gun, Batman Forever) and Brian Blessed (Macbeth, Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace).

    ---

    I cannot wait to see this movie. I love historical movies like Macbeth, Hamlet, First Knight (about King Arthur). I'm really looking forward to this movie. Plus, it's got Jared Leto (30 Seconds To Mars vocalist) in it and I've never seen a movie of his.






    Plus there's going to be 2 guys kissing (Jared and Colin)...a plus for some of the ladies. :lol:

    You won't believe how many people are fighting in Greece about the scenario.
    This scene is totally humiliating for us. But then, weren't there homosexual people in ancient Greece? :wth:

    Yes. I don't see how it should be a problem. Chances are they kissed a lot--they were lovers.

    It just shows how close-minded and homophobic people are for no reason.

    Jared and Colin kissing? Niiice. ;)

    *cough*

    For some reason I thought Brad Pitt was going to be in that movie. I heard that somewhere but I guess it was false info? What a line up of actors/actresses for this movie. I will definitely have to check this one out when it releases.

    Umm.. yeah, Brad Pitt actually is in the movie. I've seen scenes on TV with him, so he must be in it.

    COLLIN AND JARED KISSING?!?!?!????? Are you kidding me?!? These two are the sexiest actors for me... ^_^

    And if you haven't seen any of Jared's movies, I recommend you Requiem For A Dream or Fight Club - best movies ever.
