I don't know about you all. But as much as I wanted to see this one, I've decided to not support these unAmerican idiots. I knew that Brad Pitt was a radical classless lib. When I found out that the director made such stupid vapid comparisons between our president and Agamemnon, among other things, I decided not to go. If enough of us stand up and these idiots flop because of it, maybe we can make a difference. But difference or not I'm not going.

Ditto! I was thinking what a great movie it looked like and wanted too see. Not now. I doubt I'll even rent it later.
Must remind wife not too rent or see either.
Cheers!

"I thought, it's as if nothing has changed in 3 000 years. People are still using deceit to engage in wars of vengeance." I'm reminded of an anecdote I once read about Hitler in his early days as a Nazi propagandist. He had just finished giving a speech and was walking away, down the street, when a young man came up from behind and accosted him. "Tell me," said the young man, "did they shit into your brain and forget to flush it?"

Yawn...another must (not) see movie.

I can't even look at Brad Pitt, so no loss here for me. The director is showing how vapid he is, however. He has a surface understanding of events, but he's willing to spout off like he knows what he's talking about.
He added, "I wouldn't make a movie like Air Force One now,"
Well, good. That movie sucked.

Though "inspired" by The Illiad by Homer, the film makes no mention of Greek gods, distorting the entire Greek myth, the paper said. Amazing. The liberals are so anti-God that their revisionism has now extended to the pagan false gods...

don't bother to see it: Not because it was done by a PC crowd, but because the rumors on the fansites such as "ain't it cool" news say that it is a bomb, and not half as good as the previews...

He forgot the part about how the Trojan terrorists rowed two captured triremes into the Acropolis, sending it up in flames and killing everyone in it.

Yeah this is a manly film. Watching a pretty boy Brad Pitt running around in a dress! Trust me the only film this summer that's worth a damn is
"Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow" That movie looks too awesome!

I never wanted
to see it, so now I can
"boycott" the movie . . .

what was the final outcome

Sorry boys. I'm going to have to buck the trend. I'm NOT missing "Troy," for one reason, and one reason only: ERIC BANA, yet another wonderful gift from our friends, the Aussies. I do not care what Wolfgang Petersen says or what Brad Pitt does, so long as I get to bask in the masculine wonderfulness of Eric Bana as the heroic Hector fighting for his family and his country. I read at least one review that states that Bana steals the movie from Pitt. I certainly hope so. Bana appears to be a very normal family man who chooses to remain in his home in Oz, rather than get caught up in Hollywood. Eric Bana himself would have to say or do something truly egregious for me to consider missing this film.

Thanks for the info, I was going to see it. My $$ will never go to pay for this kind of %(*&^.

He said:

"Just as King Agamemnon waged what was essentially a war of conquest on the ruse of trying to rescue the beautiful Helen from the hands of the Trojans, President George W Bush concealed his true motives for the invasion of Iraq." We are not fighting for Monica Lewinski here. sorry. Where do they get these parallels? Dont these people get it? Cant they read the evidence against the terrorists? Apparently not, they are mentaly ill and cannot compute.
