Hmm, so I've noticed that Oliver Stone is making "Alexander" with Colin Farrel and Anthony Hopkins. Meanwhile, Baz Luhrman is making "Alexander the Great" with Leo DiCaprio and Nicole Kidman which is set to be released a year later.
I think it's crazy that the studios didn't think about this. Reminds me of when Deep Impact came out right after Armageddon, or when Jakob the Liar came out after Life is Beautiful. Both of those films failed, not only because they sucked, but because people had already seen them.
I can't imagine people will be thrilled to see Alexander the Great, a year after Alexander hits the screens. Does anyone think this was a big mistake or is it really just not going to matter?
