I think if there's a pattern of people not returning the disc, your wait gets longer.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
I have no idea. He was way drunk, and I quoted what he kept saying. Probably Mena, because of the blonde. He was really insistent about it, though. Odd little man.
He was just trying to get you to open your shirt, and hoping there would be roses.

I clung to Cutthroat Island and to Swashbuckler because, hey, it was a LONG time between pirate movies. (Also? Robert Shaw: yummyburger.)
Betsy ... did you miss the Roman Polanksi movie Pirates, starring Walter Matthau?

From IMDB 22 November 2004:
Greek Lawyers May Sue Over Gay Scenes in 'Alexander'
A group of Greek lawyers, maintaining that no historical document mentions that Alexander the Great ever engaged in homosexual acts, has threatened to sue director Oliver Stone and Warner Bros. unless the title credits for Alexander mention that the film is fiction. "We are not saying that we are against gays," Yannis Varnakos, one of the lawyers, told Britain's Guardian newspaper. "But we are saying that the production company should make it clear that the film is pure fiction and not a true depiction of the life of Alexander." In the film, Alexander, portrayed by Colin Farrell, is depicted as having lovers of both sexes.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Methinks they doth protest too much.
Plus they're just calling attention to the whole thing.

I reckon it's a marketing ploy to get more bums on seats. Stone is probably behind the whole thing. :)

I mean, don't they know that "greek" is slang for anal sex? Maybe they should start suing prostitutes.

If I only had a brain...
Betsy ... did you miss the Roman Polanksi movie Pirates, starring Walter Matthau?
Yes, I did. Should I rectify the omission?
And how can I forget Muppet Treasure Island, with Tim Curry in serious contention for Best. Long John Silver. Ever.?
