Perhaps next time they will recruit the Monty Python folks to help. They can find a cameo for Bigus Dickus.

Says Colin: "If Oliver ever wanted to work with me again, I would do it in a heartbeat."

Now, one wonder just what THAT means .....

"I was quite taken aback by the controversy and fierceness of the reviews about a character we don't really know too much about."

And yet you thought you knew enough to proclaim him as being queer.

Telling.

So they all but admit the movie sucked, but people avoided it over the gay thing? There's nothing like denial...

notice how they don't mention how much this homosexual movie did or did not take in at the EU market.

Has anyone asked colin if he supports this "Alexander the 'gay' " be he himself is a homosexual?

Will this movie carry an "H" warrning to advise mothers and fathers when DVD sales happen?

Stone, director of Platoon and Born On The Fourth Of July, said: "There's a raging fundamentalism in morality in the US.

Mountaineer, poster at FR, said, "There's a raging obliviousness on the part of Olive Stone and most of Hollywood to the sensibilities of Americans."

Stone hinted he'd make changes to the DVD of the movie.

Putting lipstick on a pig still results in a pig.

"The £80m movie, which shocked America by portraying the Macedonian warrior king as 'Alex the gay', has only taken £18m across the pond.

Didn't know he took a bath to the tune of 62 million pounds.

Ahhhahahahaha!

The £80m movie...

Oh it was much more than that. It cost about 200$ millions dollars and that is about 500 million pounds.

He [Farrell] said the "bond" in the homosexual scene could be "suggested in different ways".

Then Colin -- you'd better put some ice on it......er...or IN it.

No, audiences, the small ones that did see it, were shocked at how lousy a movie Stone made!

They didn't even read the reviews in the South because the media was using the words 'Alex the gay'.

Come on down South Ollie

Colin Farrell and director Oliver Stone have spoken out to defend new movie Alexander, which has been given a thorough kicking in the US.

Isn't this like a comic explaining a bad joke to his audience? You know you choked, so why even bother?

Perhaps Stone can depict a gay bar scene---like in Star Wars ---only all the actors are in drag, clad in pink satin, and carrying feather dusters. Real subtle, not flaming faggotry.

"Raging Fundamentalism", huh? Seems to me the adjective "Raging" is normally reserved for the other side of this sexuality argument.
