Movie Trivia/Goofs

Movie Goof (continuity error): When Alexander tries to ride the wild black horse, the ropes are crossed. In the next shot, they are in place.
In December 2003, a group of homeless people in Stockholm, Sweden, started queuing for tickets to "Alexander", scheduled to premiere in November 2004. They intended to live in tents outside a movie theater in the city center for a year. This silent protest, intended to draw attention to the homeless in the Swedish capitol, was inspired by a local politician who said it is both legal and fully acceptable for fans to camp out for weeks in central Stockholm to get tickets to a movie premiere. At the time, the movie in question was The Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King.
Movie Goof (factual errors): It is implied during the Indian battle that Antigonus has a command over the Shield Bearers, an elite division in the Macedonian army. This was not so.
Director Oliver Stone's first choice for the role of Alexander the Great was Russell Crowe, who turned it down.
