» LER - Historical "Irregularities"

A perfect example of Hollywood and History! LOL Complete with quotes from the Emperor in question: Ridley Scottus!

"I have gathered you, my subject historians and military advisors, here to ask if you see any problems in my screenplay?"

"Well, sire, there are a few....."

"DOG! Don't you know that history is frequently rewritten??? I, your leader, have gone back in time, in my imagination, and come to certain conclusions. Does anyone dispute them????"

"No, sire!"

"Excellent! I am glad you are so supportive of me. Otherwise I would have to cast your checks into the pit of burning oil. Chariot driver, bring up my chariot!"

Hey, just having fun here. Ridley Scott is absolutely correct, the story is everything. I have enjoyed all his movies and hope he wins big this year.
