[coffeebeetle]

This looks like alot of fun, I concur.....

[SHAFTR]

This is now one of the films I am looking forward to seeing.

to the casting of Peter O'Toole. I like seeing mainstream films released that are educational for people. Especially epics like this that aren't made anymore.

Everything looks great about it, but I still can't help being apprehensive about it. Nearly every time a story from Greek Mythology is told, the writers butcher it to fulfill their message or need. I had high hopes for the Troy miniseries on USA earier this year and they just butchered the Illiad because I guess (?) they were trying to make a better movie.

Hopefully they'll be true to Homer with this one.

Hopefully they'll be true to Homer with this one.

From what I've read on the website it sounds like they will.

[MacGuffin]

Premise: In 1193 B.C., Prince Paris (Bloom) of Troy stole the beautiful Greek woman, Helen (Kruger), away from her husband, Menelaus, the king of Sparta, setting the two nations at war with each other, as the Greeks began a bloody siege of Troy using their entire armada, led by Achilles (Pitt), that lasted over a decade... (Bana plays Hector, the leader of the Trojan forces; Byrne plays Briseis, a Trojan slave and cousin of Hector and Paris who is given to Achilles as a gift.)

I've red the Iliade. From what I've seen and heard this movie has removed everything about the gods.

i saw the trailer before revolutions and i thought it looked pretty huge. i fear that this could turn out just as gay as gladiator though.

You could be right but remember that Russel Crowe ain't Brad Pitt. + The Iliade is a classic and the rest of the cast looks smashing.

Am I the only one who loved Gladiator...?

Ah well...Troy's got potential.

well gladiator had ridley scott as director and good actors like richard harris and joaquin phoenix, i sincerily doubt it was crowes fault that this movie was bad.

if troy will be good i will give all credit to peter o'toole, one of the last of his kind of dual phallic hollywood actors.
