Anyone seen that? I'm a history buff, and *real* history in there or is
it just comp-anim and action?

I saw it. It was very good. I watched a documentary on it a few days
before I saw it. The movie was pretty historically accurate, but the
numbers of soldiers were all off. It made it seem more dramatic

I was really impressed with the visuals on the trailers.
It looks a better production that Troy and I really liked that
even though it was historically "Hollywooded".

I'll IMAX it tomorrow. Tnx.

The movies based on a graphic novel ( or comic book) by the same guy who
did Sin city. It's not historically accurate. But if you keep that in
mind, It's a great film. If the accuracy is going to bother you, don't
see it.
I'm a history buff too, but sometimes you just have to enjoy the ride.

tnx Glenn.

I pushed the facts aside to watch Troy that way to.

Hollywood is never gonna give you accuracy. That's why we gotta watch
History and Discovery Channels.

Ah wait for the honesty.

David Bowie is presently filming the story of Nicola Tesla.
Bowie would only be part of it if they stick to the facts mostly.
They always have to put in some "fluff" but for the most
part I'm hoping it rings truth.

As Bowie is I to am a Nicola Tesla follower.
