i agree. totally. but i refuse to 'accept' bagoas/alexander sex in the movie as some sort of 'substitute' for alex/hephaistion - this attitude about..'well at least we see him make love with bagoas' doesn't fly with me. but then i must be weird...i still would have preferred a 'young' alex/hephaestion sex scene (maybe in Mieza while students to aristotle) than this so called one liner "can you stay tonite" or whatever it is that happens...:shrug: but lets give this movie a chance. the trailer looks awesome. but then alexander was awesome... btw this dude..this dancer they picked for bagoas..i wonder how TALL he is...could it be that both his male lovers were taller than him??? that would seem odd to look at..- personally i would have chosen Haley Joel Osmant (sp?)(u know the kid from 6th sense) as Bagoas...i always pictured this cute youth with chestnut hair and eyes - sissy-ish as Bagoas..but maybe this dude as bagoas is hot? anything is possible :-) cheers Nicolas.
