He leaves them with news from Egypt: Caesar has lifted the siege, and massacred the armies of Ptolemy. "He is safe and sound and master of all Egypt."

Again, no battle is shown.

All you got is just a bunch of guys throwing rocks at the Romans, then they cut away and it's a year later and we hear Ceasar has won.

Without any battles what did they spend the $100 million on??

You're right, of course. You know how liberals spend other people's money. Except for a few fairly authentic sets, the expenses should be no more than for the cast of a theatre production.
This is a little off topic, but , speaking of liberals losing money, did anyone else notice that one of the biggest creditors to REFCO in its bankruptcy was (former Soros partner and occasional tv business guest) Jim Rogers' commodities company to the tune of more than $360 Million. I haven't seen this reported in the press yet, as usual only the blogs have the latest.
