I don't know if it's true or not, but I just read the news story, Kit-Kat submitted. Wow. Greek lawyers are sueing becasue of that? For suggesting Alexander the Great was bisexual?

I guess Greek people are homo-phobics or something.

Why would you want to sure for that?Unless they only want money.

Well, jsut read for yourselfs, so you'll understand. Read

I just read the article. The Greeks have every right to be upset. Stone is making reference that are not truly founded or documented in Greek history. All they ask that references are fictional not based on facts.
I myself really don't care what was Alexander sexuality and he did with his sex life. He is dead. His sexuality died with him. It should stay that way.

i dont think they have the right to be upset. IT IS A MOVIE! all non-fictional movies have a lie here and there. i dont get why do they have the right to sue the creators? how does the story affect greece? it doesnt, they are just money hungry.

LOL! Just because some Greek Lawyers are threatening to sue Warner Bros, doesn't make the Greek people homo-phobics. I myself am Greek and I'm not homo-phobic, but whatever.

The point to it all is they're changing history. A friend of mine, dad's cousin was the head of "classical studies" at the University of Athens and also a global leader in that field as his seminars show. He's also the author of countless books related to Ancient Greece.

My friend had asked him about the 'Gay' issue regarding Alexander the Great and his response was "PURE FABRICATION".

Anyways, I myself don't care that much. Stone changed some sh!t in Troy, but I didn't complain, so I'm not really going to complain on this movie either.

its actually rumored that Alexander and Hephestian were lovers, but to this day no one knows. Oliver Stone obviously believes Alexander and Hephestian were lovers so he is adding this element into his film.

Actually, it's pretty well accepted that Alexander and Hephestian were male lovers. The thought seems to be so taboo these days, but back in the times of the Greek and Roman empires it was quite common.

He turned one of the greatest stories of all time into a hollywood glitz show. Don't even get me started on what was wrong with that movie...

You are correct. Homosexuality, Incest and even Bestiality were quite common.
