For a moderator - No posts exist for this topic error

I've been getting an error when I try to view the second page of a thread I started a few days ago - on Hypaspists and Asthethairoi. The error states: Information No posts exist for this topic The main forum page states that there are 19 posts, but I can only view the first 10. Rather frustrating. I...

@ Paralus - Thanks for the concern, but all my DVD players are multi-region so it should play OK. :)

@ Dara - Thanks for the info on release schedules. I may wait for the Region 2 release since it is only a month away now. I wonder if it's going to come with a free ticket for 300.

May? How do they justify these release schedules? :evil:

Well, looks like I'll be getting a Region 1 DVD then. If anyone in the US can use a free ticket for 300 then let me know, I assume that it will not be valid in the UK.

A frivolous reply.

Maybe they're held on with superglue. Imagine the fallout if they fell off and went down a drain though.

Now seriously - they weren't real Alexander coins were they? Surely we're talking about replicas here.

I also noticed that it was not on Amazon, it made me wonder if they are planning to release it in the UK. The film always had its problems, including IMHO some of the casting, but there was enough that was good and enjoyable about the cinema release that would encourage me to get this edition and gi...

Hypaspists and Asthetairoi

Greetings to all Pothosians. I'm a newbie here, and I've enjoyed reading the threads here. The depth of knowledge seems most remarkable, and there seems to be a concentration on evidence and citations that is quite rare on websites. Would I be right in guessing that several of the people that post h...
