Hi, ladies:

I love this character very much too, if it is not too late, I would like join you. On Friday I finally got (3 weeks after ordering it) my DVD, that’s why I didn’t “apply” earlier, so I am enjoying it more and more. I saw the film before, it even was on our TV three weeks ago, of course, dubbed (they tried hard, but it just wasn’t HIS voice!), but now I can watch it over and over again – and when I want to!

For me, he IS a real hero of the story, maybe he has even more screentime than the others (now I can count it), without him – both as an actor and as a character with this beautiful love story – the film would lack a lot (and we would, too). I think they should have listed GJB as the leading actor (he wasn’t so well-known then, but he was the most important one). And it is good that at least some reviews acknowledge how good he was.

For me, it also (as it was already said earlier) looked strange why everybody addressed our hero as “Marek”, if this was supposed to be a surname (in our country, a first name “Marc” would be spelled as Marek). I wouldn’t be surprised if lady Claire was confused about that (in medieval times, the distinction between parts of name wasn’t so well established; but she usually called him by the whole name “Andre Marek”); what was somehow strange was why the other archaeologists called him just “Marek”. At least as I feel it, if (especially the younger ones) considered him to be their professor, reputable capacity in the area, they should have called him “Dr. Marek,” “Professor Marek”, or at least “Mr. Marek”; if they were already in friendly terms with him, they should have called him just “Andre” (unless they minded that it does sound very French).

Unfortunately, I have not read the book, so I cannot compare (but I am not sure if I want to read it, I would compare it too much, as I do in case of PSILY) – just tell me - should I read the book now, when I fell in love with the film character? By the way, how did the others call Andre Marek in the book? And was he supposed to be Scottish at all?

I am sorry, but I won’t join your “mandoll” group. For me, it would probably be more difficult to get it, and I do not like those plastic dolls too much anyway. I am afraid my boyfriend would not approve it either. Besides that, no doll can be as handsome as her model, I prefer watching pictures (both motion and still) of the real man. But I can imagine it could be nice to have the dolls and play with them, so have fun!

You already added plenty of pictures from the film, it is really difficult to find others; it is also difficult to define a favourite scene if all of them are so nice (for me, probably the scene in the river) I also loved the extra features. He is really cute in a short part with his stunt man in The Nights of La Roque, one of extra features, when they are watching the scene of the explosion. I have some screencaps, but i don’t know how to add them here - but all of you who have this extra feature on your DVDs might watch it yourselves.

Hi! Donnie! And welcome to the group! :wave:

I've never read the "Timeline" book so I can't compare the book to the film either.

“Dr. Marek,” “Professor Marek”, or at least “Mr. Marek”...I feel some Marek manips coming on! lol

It is a beautiful love story and I thought Gerry should of got top billing as well!

No worries about the mandoll's Donnie..we have a forum especially for the gals to post their stories and adventures.

Here's some info on adding your screen caps.

First you will need an image host like Photobucket.

If you need any help just send me a pm. :)

Hey, donnie. We are just joking about applying to join. Just an attempt at witty humor. :lol:

As for why they call him Marek, most of the time. In the modern section its just a cultural thing. They also called Josh Stern (the physicist who stayed behind) Stern. Sometimes people just call others by their last name. Mostly guys.

In the 1357 though, they rarely used Christian names, that was too familiar, so to call him Marek instead of Andre makes sense. Like Lord Oliver and Lord Arnaut. Those weren't first names, they were the surnames.

And I completely agree that Marek was the hero. No question. His role was very beefed up from the book, too. the entire romance was added into the movie. And I am so glad because that is the only thing that really makes it watchable. Our hero being the perfect knight. *le sigh*
