Re: oliver stone and the pink dollar

'they were simply themselves, they were pagan and not subject to christian beliefs'Those must have been the good ol' days. Today life is based on intolerance and ignorance. I'm just glad Stone is not afraid and is going for accuracy.GA

Re: well...

It's horrible looking. Not very flattering to one who was supposed to be handsome. I purchased a replica years ago. It was from World Treasures, in CA. I don't even know if they are around any longer. It was based on the one in Glyptothek, Munich. (At least that's what it says on the paperwork!) And...

Tomb Raider-The Cradle of Life & ATG??

I received a call from my sister-in-law who was at a theme park last week in Ohio. In front of the Paramount movie theatre there was--- an enormous statue of ATG. ?? Sure enough on the web-site for Tomb Raider II it states they feature a temple (Luna Temple) built by ATG... Zoiks!! Am I out of the l...

Re: speculations about Oliver Stone's movie

These blockbuster films are strictly for entertainment, not biography. (You can watch the history channel for that). I think it's fantastic there is so much interest in him. Is it possible to just sit back, let them do their thing, and enjoy the work for what they are?? No one will ever get it perfe...

Re: New Alexander Book Released

The addition of Roxane as murderer was to add some intrigue to the story. But- there has been some whispers, hasn't there? I just used it because it seemed more dramatic than him dying of an illness. It is fiction, after all! ;) It's available on amazon.com now, but still sold out on the amazon.uk.....

Thanks to all of you for your encouragement and support. I'm living proof that you can do it too. Just don't give up. Also, because of the response, my book has *sold out* on amazon.co.uk (but not .com yet) and will be available soon, they assured me. I'll let you know when the book once again becom...

Re: Getting a little tired of the homophobia....

I couldn't agree more!! Get over it, people! It just shouldn't be an issue! But, how typical for that to be the #1 gossip of those pathetic movies.

Re: In defense..

Yes, Burton was a far better 'actour' but, the movie stunk! I was so disappointed I turned it off. Can anyone really do a film to please everyone? I think they want big names to cater to the general public, who are clueless about history and want some Hollywood blockbuster adventure. There's no way ...
