I checked the Internet Movie Database at http://www.imdb.com/ and i found some interesting titles. In 2005 there will be a movie about Hannibal, who will cross the alps: starring Vin Diesel. There will also be a miniseries about Rome called Rome, but no details are really given about this. In 2004 they will be making a remake of Spartacus but in a miniseries with the same name. Goran Visnjic will be playing Spartacus.
Also on the alexander movies. Oliver stone is directing one Alexander the geat movie called Alexander starring Collin Farel as Alexander, Angelina Jolie as Olympias and Val Kilmer as Philip.
The second Alexander the great movie with the same title has more or less an unknown cast, at least to me.
The third Alexander the great movie is expected around 2005 starring Leonardo dicaprio as Alexander and Nicole Kidman as his mother Olympias. So now you know what to expect from Hollywood
thats all

I'm pretty sure that some sequences will be cut like they did with the movie Event Horizon where they cut more than 15 minutes of scenes because it was too violent.
If they start to speak the actual languages of those days in movies, we might be seeing a change in Hollywood where they will not make movies anymore about antiquity where everyone speaks English? Nay, aint goin to happen.
On another note, did anyone saw the miniseries Helene of troy? I heard that there were biblical references in it, but i didn't really notice it.
Violence? I suppose those in the audience who were weeping were also the type who would not have gone to see Event Horizon, which I thought was more violent than The Pasion of THE Christ. First beating him with sticks, to ensure he'd welt up before scourging, and then having the spines rip into his flesh (brief shot) was good, not too graphic I thought, and all the blood was no where near what would actually appear.
