Newsflash: there is no evidence, aside from the books written about it by people born hundreds of years after it supposedly happened, that this war ever took place. In fact, some have speculated that if this war occurred, that it was not one that took place between the Achaeans and the Trojans, but rather between the Celts and the French. In any case, the movie was based on the book the Illiad, if you'd ever read the book, you'd know what Triggar, martyr and I were upset about.

In the future, before you attempt to flame me, know your shit.

When i was walking out of the theaters with my friends and everything I heard this kid say, "It was such a cheesy ending, I mean come on he got shot in the achilles tendent. What are the chances of that".

Another thing, Achilles and the story is one gay motherfucker. In the movie his cousin is the one that gets killed when everyone thinks he's achilles. How ever in reality its his gay lover. Alexander the Great was a gay motherfucker too.

Before tossing the flame accusations around, take a look at your first reply. I could care less if you liked the movie or not. We're all entitled to our own opinions.

They completely desecrated the book. If you've got an vivid mind, that book has about 752.7 times more blood, titties, and epic battles than the movie. Plus it doesn't have the horrifically stupid "Leprechaun leap stab".

I hated that.

I have a bootleg Troy that my bro got for me in NY, pretty good, except it has the same picture quality of Ben Hur.

Actually I belive we have found some evidence of where we think Troy was.I remember my teacher telling us about it,its relativly new I think but we do have evidence.As for the movie,it rocks.I really didnt want to see mythalogical stuff in it that much.Its fine as it is

Baaaaa go the sheep

[firecrackerNC]

lol right im a sheep cause I liked the movie.Nice one

edit: on another note,Anyone else think Orlanda Bloom didnt really fit the part?He seemed to......pretty boyish.Brad Pitt was average,they could have done better yet they could have done alot worse also.But Orlando always comes across as a pretty lil rich kid,not a warrior

Yeah I remember in 8th grade world history our teacher was talking about Alex. She was hinting around the fact, and i yelled out you mean he was gay? Class was hysterical.

It isn't homosexuality, it's "Greek Love."

In other words, they did each other ndabut.

I'm not going to see it because of mixed reviews, lack of interest in ancient/fantasy battles, and lack of interest, period.

Hamma and I both like the movie well worth going to see 2 times
