They just won the Euro 2004 Soccer/Football Championship, will host the Olympics, and have Hollywood movies about one of their legends.

I would say 2004 is a pretty good year to be greek :awinky:

The movie looks very promising - I´m looking forward too it!

No, I think he was dressed up to look like Alexander B)

Alexander is supposed to have been fair skinned, with a ruddy tinge to his face and chest. Plutarch stated that he had a pleasing scent. Like all Macedonians, Alexander liked his liquor; his fondness for wine also caused some of his outbursts of rage. Alexander liked drama, the flute and the lyre, poetry and hunting. What he truly wanted in his life was glory and valor, rather than easy living and riches. He was not fond of athletic contests, according to Plutarch.

I think he's based more on the 2004 female fantasy version of a mythological character than the actual person alexander, known only as a vague sketch and a statue with its nose knocked off :rolleyes:

these movies are aimed at my gender as much as yours Rolo, if not more. how often do men go to the movies by themselves or with a group of men? its no coincidence that all leading men look like 1 of 3 templates!

fair haired, blue eyes, tanned skin
or
tall, dark hair, dark eyes
or
fat, ugly and undesirable characters chosen to make women feel better about their reality

:biglaugh:

Yes, they do look alike, and if that means we - "men" - are allowed to go to the movies more often, because we can take our girlfriends/wives etc. with us, then I hope there will be more Brad Pitt clones :unsure:

As a male - then I look forward spending some time with Angelina Jolie :)
