In the original novel, wasn't the Phantom from Persia?

Nope, he's a pale Frenchmen that got all jaundiced. There is a character from Persia, though, and he lurks around the opera house investigating all the weird poo poo that happens there.

A movie is coming direct to video that features Ice T as a vampire bootlegger in the 1920s, that alone sounds awesome and then they went and released this ridiculous poster!




Ice T looks upset about something. Maybe his bootlegging isn't going so well?

Re: Timeline (the book, anyway. Haven't seen the movie in ages)--

It wasn't a "fax", they used fax as a way to explain some nasty errors that cropped up later. The time machine tapped into a wormhole that led only to that specific time and place in the past, so I don't know where this whole time travel theme park thing is coming from because they can only send people to medieval France and nowhere else (and not a parallell France, either. It's our France). So the Marek that left a message was their Marek.

I agree that a lot of it was pretty bad, though, but they weren't faxing people bad. :v:
