 Charlton Heston played Holmes once, and did a pretty good job too if I remember right.
 Yeah, all he's remembered for are the bible epics and Planet of the Apes, but the guy really was a solid actor.  I also had to respect that although he was the conventional leading man in most ways he also wasn't above character acting.  This is more common now, but that really wasn't the case when he was in his prime.  Yeah, he made some crap, but I think he was just one of those guys who liked working (Michael Caine also springs to mind). Much love to Chuck. |

 OMG, this is crazy!  What's next, is someone going to tell me that Dr. Quest and Race Bannon were gay too???
 Nonsense!  Sure, there was that time when they were staying in a castle, and had a WHOLE FUCKING EMPTY CASTLE, but shared a room, but that was okay because they had seperate beds.

 Heard a good program on the radio extolling Holmes as a perfect character sketch for high-functioning autism, and praising the Holmes-Watson warm friendship for showing that even though seeming cold and distant, autistics are people.
 Wish I could remember where I heard it, but can't. And am too terribly lazy to google it.

 Every single male character in 300 was flamingly gay.
 Jsut thought I'd throw that out.

 Why do people keep trolling 300?  Back in those days, giving a sensuous oil massage to the rippling muscalature of another man was like a handshake is today.   |

 I thought I'd just way in re: Miller's Spartan's making fun of the Athenians for being homos. That bit's actually relatively accurate, as far as the Spartan's were concerned the Athenians were girly gay guys because they enjoyed plays and had love affairs. Sleeping with young boys (which I'm guessing means pre-teens since the Spartans certainly fucked the hell out of their teenage boys) was also generally more acceptable in Athens which the Spartans frowned upon.  |

 Because it was fascist war porn? Anyway, that wasn't the really gay 300 . |
