Great review - 'clawing his decayed eyes out' - LOL!
I wonder who made this the headline, maybe the director? What a moron...
Maybe he should take about 10 years off this time. His movies continue to suck badly.
That's hilarious! I'd like to know who wrote that so I could read some more of his reviews.
Stone was pretty honest and accurate in his analysis about the failure of this dog of a movie. That's amazing from someone like him that usually prefers to make up history.
It is said that her accent was like that of Bela Lugosi...
I will see the movie when I can see it for free. Otherwise, I will take the overwhelmingly negative reaction from almost all of the critics and people that saw the movie; that this was a real disaster...
150 million wasted on a bad movie. Compare to the money being sent to tsunami relief.
I heard on the news last night that "The Fantastic 4" just had it's budget raised 20 million to "make Mr. Fantastic's powers look as good as Ms. Incredible."
Such gross displays of wealth by those who in turn say I don't give enough.
BTW - If they cut Colin Ferrell's shirt any shorter you'd see his package. Who told these guys how to design armor?
LOL. Us silent-majority-types don't scream and yell like the lefties . . . we just have long, long memories and Stone is now receiving his just-due karma for all the crap he's tried to force-feed us over the years. Life is good.
...which demonstrates yet again the extraordinary sophistication of the South.
He probably figured that The Passion of the Christ did well because of the publicity, rather than the fact that there are a slew of Christians who take their salvation seriously. Must be really tpough to find out that creating a publicity controversy over trash doesn't sell the trash...
Gotta love Dixie!
Looks like it's "Zach Jones."

Another hard lesson in market economics. If you don't give the people what they want, they'll stay home in droves.
ROTFLMAO... Oh what fun it must be, to be a critic LOL
"the chance to explain the complicated rivalry among Alexander's mother, wife Roxane, and soul mate Hephiastion."
Stone just doesn't get it. He apparently missed a little part of Alexander's life-like the conquest of the known world with a relatively small army. Liberals think people are defined by their sex life or skin color. Period. And achievements are incidental, rather than vice versa. It's a tabloid mentality shared by individuals with no sense of history or appreciation for ordinary people who perform acts which change the course of human civilization. To them, it's who's doing what to whom that really matters. It's the sign of a narrow, unimaginative mind.
That's funny because a girl I know who went to high school with her said she looked like Dracula when she knew her.
That, and Colin ("Colon"?) Farrell can't act his way out of a wet paper bag.
another Stone quote showing how far he is from understanding "fly over country"
"Kids weren't comfortable with men who hugged, a king who cries and expresses tenderness."
Ever hear of Jesus? Just another put down not to cleverly disguised as an observation.
