Entertaining? Sometimes. But documentaries they ain't. I wonder if Stone will include how the small greys helped Bush (who is a reptilian) to fly the planes into the towers by remote control.

Yes, it was a massive piece of garbage. But watched in the proper context it is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen(unintentionally of course). That scene where Hephaistion (Jared Leto's character) is in bed dying and Alexander is giving his speech about how he can't live without him is the stuff of legend. We all knew he was about to die but my girlfriend leans over to me and whispers"if the poision doesn't kill him the speech certainly will". Frankly, I can count the number of pictures that have made me laugh that hard since on one hand. Just had to chime in on Alexander. Yes, it was a massive piece of garbage.
