Sure, I'd be one of the ones who could stand a historically accurate 10 hour movie, but that's RARE.

Yes I probably could too but it wouldn't make any money lol.

I don't mind them changing some things to make a better movie as long as they stay true roughly to the spirit of the original history. I get mildly irritated at things like U571 where they change it not to make a better movie but I can only assume because they think Americans would rather see the US troops doing something than the British. I get highly irritated when they take the names and locations and sod all else lol (Braveheart) but if they'd just put a disclaimer saying that it's not meant to be accurate I could accept that too(as a fantasy type film Braveheart's pretty damn good). If I want historical fact, I watch a documentary.

I love historical fiction, so when I go see most of the "based on a true story" movies, I just take them as that. :D That's all they typically are, anyway! A whole lot of fiction with a little bit of fact thrown in to make it semi believable.

Documentaries are definitely the way to go for facts, not hollywood!

I have sympathy with the writers anyway, on the massacre issue. I'm writing a historical novel and it has a section dealing with Stonehenge. If I was writing an essay I could lay out the various theories and discuss their pros and cons, since my character was actually there at the time though I have to pick one and present it as 'fact', because he was there he knows what happened lol.It's the same with the massacre - they could discuss the evidence but since they're portraying the events they have to either decide if their characters were involved or not. You can't sit on the fence.
