Gladiator

[Sakiruba]

I know it's an old movie and all, but Gladiator is simply amazing. The music in it is breathtaking, and the closing scene is awe-inspiring.

[Sakiruba]

omg yes that was excellent too.

in my western civ class the prof. said Alexander III was bisexual and some people were like "gasp!!!!!" and someone else was like "but that was normal back then" and the prof. said "yeah it's called pederasty and the Greeks and Romans did it" or whatever and then some girl in the class was like "oh yeah cuz you know in that movie Gladiator that guy who was the prince wanted to have sex with his sister"

wtf brings up the movie gladiator to make a point to a guy who's spent his whole life studying real historical sources (lol?)

that's not even homosexuality, it's incest, it's different, so it was a stupid way to bring up a moot point

That was the first thing that I thought, "What does a guy wanting to boink his sister have to do with homosexuality?" Second thought was "Gladiator was fiction". Third thought was "What kind of insulation from real history do people have that they did not know that Alexandr (Old-School NES spelling) the Great was Bi?" Fourth thought was "How did that person get into college?"

Then I just cried a little for the future of our doomed species.

I went to the movies Friday and saw "Serenity"
Sci-fi and comedy... That was pretty neat.

[docvicious]

Tell the truth, didn't you want to choke her just a little for being so stupid, but still in college most likely because her parents paid a lot of money to get her in?

i go to a community college

and I don't think she was white

therefore, I doubt she's on the mommy and daddy scholarship

But it is OK to want to hurt someone for violating your mind like that.

Is she blonde?

[Almaa]

More importantly, is she hot?

[joft]

i didn't turn my head to see her
