  1. I bet originally David Thewlis' character was supposed to be Friedrich Alfred "Fritz" Krupp, sole proprietor of the Krupp Steelworks, the heart of the German military-industrial complex. Look at Fritz' picture from Wikipedia, and tell me that wasn't who Thewlis is supposed to look like. But, you couldn't have a homosexual as a villain in a modern Hollywood movie, that would go against The Message(TM).

  2. Actually, I bet that originally Ares was written as Friedrich Alfred ("Fritz") Krupp, sole proprietor of the Krupp steelworks, the most infamous member of the "military-industrial complex". Look at the character design for Sir Patrick Morgan (David Thewlis) and a picture of Fritz on Wikipedia, and tell me you can't see the resemblance. (Only, including a homosexual as the villain would go against The Message, so he got Anglicized in a really weird way...)

  3. Nope, he was originally supposed to be Friedrich Alfred "Fritz" Krupp, sole proprietor of Krupp Steelworks, "The Reich's Armorer", and grand-daddy of the whole Military-Industrial Complex. (Seriously, look him up on Wikipedia. The picture fits Thewlis to a "T"). But, he was also homosexual, so according to The Message(TM) can't be the villain of a modern Hollywood movie.

  4. I'll bet that originally David Thewlis' character was supposed to be Friedrich Alfried "Fritz" Krupp, sole proprietor of the Krupp Steelworks, known as "the Reich's Armorer". But, in today's Hollywood you can't have a homosexual as a villain, so he got Anglicized.
