Hey Marcus, It's nice to see you again. Sorry for the bad news ruining your DVD viewing plans. But April 2nd is not long away. I know you were one that liked the film (along with a few others on this board), so I think you will enjoy this cut just as much or even better (I am anxious to read your th...

Hi everyone, I hope you all are well. I have not been here for quite awhile (so some of you may not remember me). But, I have been reading some of the posts about the new DVD. Just to clarify the release date schedule, the region 2 DVD is due out on April 2nd. I don't know when any other regions are...

Yes, the site was Epic Film Talk. Unfortunately it is a thing of the past. I was one of the moderators there and I moderated the Alexander forum. We had a great close knit group that did a lot of talking about the film and a lot of other ATG related topics (I just moderated, I let the experts do the...

Hi Marcus, I think you may have misunderstood me. I didn't say that the failure of Alexander affected his other performances. I was trying to say in response to what you wrote, is that from what I read, Alexander was not just one of those films that he put in his time for, collected a paycheck and t...

Colin Farrell

Hi Marcus, Nice to see you again! I enjoyed reading your comments. I remember reading comments that Farrell made after Alexander came out and he really did take it quite hard when the film did not do well. He put a lot into that film and it was a film that meant a lot to him. I remember him saying t...

Wow, I have not been here in awhile. I hope you all are well. I like the new digs! Just a few comments on The New World. Like val, I saw the film in the theatre and I thought it was a beautiful piece of work with a stellar cast and first rate acting. But, like Alexander was this film is not for ever...

Re: What makes an Oscar?

Hi Jan, Always a pleasure! I guess I am the only one who really liked Alexander, but thats okay on my end. It doesn't matter much anymore because I have pretty much become immune to it (also, it's been long enough, anyway). But, it's fine. I still like popping my head in to say "hi" every ...

Re: What makes an Oscar?

Hi Kenny, I have not been around for awhile, but I thought I would put in my 2 cents (if you don't mind). I hope you are well. Unfortunately, the score for Alexander is not eligible for an Oscar this year. It was a 2004 film, therefore it would have been eligible last year. And as we know it was not...

Re: A message for Oliver the Stoned!

Thanks Linda, Nic and Kenny, It's cool. I am not really upset about it. It's not worth it in the long run. Like I said, it's just a movie. There are other things in life to be more concerned about. I have learned to roll with the punches. I vent every once in awhile and then I feel better. I appreci...

Re: A message for Oliver the Stoned!

Okay....I am now sorry I even made a comment. I am only here once in awhile, anyway. I was just trying to make a civil comment. I didn't think it was that bad. But, I guess this film has people who liked it and people who didn't. There wasn't much in between. Thats fine with me. Everyone is entitled...

Re: A message for Oliver the Stoned!

You are welcome, Karen. I agree with you. Thats what I call a thoroughly detailed review. I like how the author backed up all of his points in detail.This one is right up there with Jeanne's review. I still find hers the best so far.I have gotten so sick of the "it sucks" syndrome, with no...

Re: A message for Oliver the Stoned!

I have a enjoyed reading all of your insights on the film. They are always interesting to read. I am one of the lone voices in the wilderness who really liked the film (I have stated that several times already, here). But after following this film for quite a long time, reading reviews, comments and...
