Do some dexter
Pls
Would love to see you do some retro shows like Babylon 5. 👍🏼
Beautiful! Epic, melancholic and true. I watched both the original and the director's cut. And I loved both of them!
I would love to see your take on The Handmaid's Tale or American Gods. These shows are quite character-centered and I believe you would enjoy them.
Until then, carry on and keep doing what you love.

“He’s the biggest man I’ve ever seen, I wouldn’t want to fight him.”

*"This is Hector. The fool who thought he killed Achilles."* damn, that's savage.
That is a line Lu Bu would say in a battlefield.
@@kiggerst yep. But he's a great warrior too except that he's a fool.
Hands down my favourite moment..
Such a savage when angry. Yet in the end, he honoured the kill and allowed him his honourable burial. Achilles was the ultimate badass 🙏🏻
@@chrisburke624 he got killed by paris how badass can he rly be? xd
"Men are haunted by the vastness of eternity. And so we ask ourselves: will our actions echo across the centuries? Will strangers hear our names long after we are gone and wonder who we were, how bravely we fought, how fiercely we loved?"
This is such a damn cool quote, gives me the shivers everytime I hear it
I too love this opening monologue, and it has stuck with me since the day I watched this movie in theaters. I think my favorite thing about it is that it not only sums up the nature of man, but also perfectly describes the driving force behind who Achilles is, at least as he is portrayed in this film. This has been my favorite movie for almost two decades now and I will defend it until my last breath.
Didn't Gladiator say something like tis too?
It's true with every generation. If you're not rich, that is life.
I echo with you ... I also love the movie finish lines ..."If they ever tell my story, let them say I walked with giants. Men rise and fall like the winter wheat, but these names will never die.
Let them say I lived in the time of Hector tamer of horses. Let them say, I lived in the time of Achilles."
@mr.k1611
Even some Rich folks aren't remembered much outside their family. And unless they're the one who made the family rich, they'd be remembered even less so.
This movie was a 10. Brad Pitt's performance was truly awesome. He trained for two years to play this role. From the best shape of his life to learning how to fight with ancient weapons, Brad Pitt didn't just play the role, he LIVED the role.
even hurt his Achilles heel I'm told.

“The gods envy us. They envy us because we’re mortal, because any moment may be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we’re doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again.” Achilles
I am pretty sure humans envy gods not the other way around, but nice quote anyway.

@@allbies enlight me please
#Djordje
They are doomed with eternity, and therefore can't appreciate beauty and lust and many other things, as they are not burdened neither with death nor time. Everything is more precious once you know you wont have it all the time.
@@boki1504 I understood quote perfectly in first place but matter is highly subjective one , thats my point.
Tell me would person like for example parent that lost their young children and every reason for living rather wish for Gods power to protect their loved ones or think they are "blessed " with this humans gift ???
"Get up prince of Troy, i won't let a stone take my glory"

Hector must be remembered too . A mortal fought a demigod with honor.
Hector was the man, not Achilles. He was the hero. He had no special powers like Achilles. Even Achilles confessed how good he was. Hector was the hero for me.
@@ikiemoyeiniamagha3280 for me too.
@@ikiemoyeiniamagha3280he was mean to be the hero and the good one.
Hector was a exemple , moral , brave and kind.
They were both men its just Achilles had achieved alot hence they thought him a demigod
@@charlesamunga2919 achilles was dipped in a river by his mother when he was born which made his entire body impenetrable except his feet part where his mother holded him. So typically he is a god and a fight with him means defeat ensured.

No kidding this is some incredible editing right here.
"The gods envy us. They envy us because we’re mortal, because any moment may be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we’re doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again"
That quote has stuck with me for a good 15 years. Gave me goosebumps!
Teaches you to live your life the fullest and to not be held by boundaries because what ever happens to us after death we wont have all of the luxury as we do now
15 years for me too. Best movie 👍🏻
It’s from the Iliad
true.. its too deep and emotional
It is true, i've bathed my mind in the mind of a god. People say that the god's will always has a purpose or is unknown, but the truth is that god's will is only to watch us as entertainment. To see us grow and past our limitations. To see us make our decisions that will decide our fates. To say it's good or bad is entirely up to you because living is chaos but at the same time happiness.
"What we do in life, echoes in eternity."
-Maximus
The fact that this movie was made shows that Achilles was not forgotten
"How many cousins have you killed? How many sons, and fathers, and brothers, and husbands, how many, *brave* Achilles?"
He turns the word into a curse. Excellent delivery.
The most underrated delivery of all time♥
I see all their faces at night , the men I killed . they say welcome brother .
@@lamarelam1944 "We men are wretched things. Don't waste your life following some fools orders."
In the myth he even angers the god of the underworlds river that sents some things to kill Achilles because in his rage as patroklus died he killed so many it kept blocking up the river. I think in movie also he talked about how he sees all he killed in other side of the river calling him
He judged Aquiles, but he was himself a fool King! Let his Kingdom be ruined for pride! He and his spoiled son!
"you gave me peace
in a lifetime of war."
was, is, and will always be my favorite quote among all of the movies i've watched 😩🖤
It should've been patroclus and not breseis in the movie
I find their love story not very good at all. Very out of character for Achilles. In the myth, his lover was Patroclus and it make sense because they've been together their entire lives.
Legends of the fall
Men rise and fall like the winter wheat, but these names will never die.
That’s the line that resonates with me.
@@igustibagusananda7706 stop talking shit if you don't know about Greek mythology then don't speak... Patroclus he was his best friend not the lover...
I can't hold my admiration for the editor of this video who is as skillful as Achilles himself. I thank you for your superlative effort in crystallizing yourself and Achilles. ❤️

Beautiful comment
"We will never be here again" This is the only thing that makes me get out the bed and achieve what I want to. Love it
Who ever composed that fight between Hector and Achilles, did an amazing job🔥🔥🔥
Methinks the lads invested a wee bit of practice.
Brad and Eric choreographed the fight themselves
@@JC-sb4gg Really?. How do you know.
I ask because it's an impressive bit of choreography: Not a lot of camera cuts. Rather, close fighting, with many offensive thrusts. Very difficult to do.
I just wish Pitt didnt fake his English accent. He's good to look at, like Robert Redford. But I don't consider him a good actor-also like Robert Redford.
Soundtrack be banging
@@souloftheage He's a great actor. His work in Seven and Fight Club stand for that. But yes, his attempted English accent is pretty bad.
“ he must be the biggest man I’ve ever seen I wouldn’t want to fight him
- that’s why no one will remember your name “
What a thing to say to a kid 😂 for better or worse, Achilles never minced his words
@@amandeepbaghiana4510 - Achilles was a purist as a warrior and as a man. He refused to play politics. He refused to be deceptive. He refused to fight when wronged by Agamemnon. His harsh bit of truth might inspire the kid to be better than he otherwise would be.
My favorite quote of all time
@@lacedemonians someone should make a movie where that kid winds up becoming something special.
@@runningthor1999 - How 'bout this movie scenario: the kid is inspired to be a special warrior, just like Achilles! So he works out & trains really hard. But on his first day in the field, he gets hit in the head with a rock, but survives. Flash forward, he is sitting on a rock talking to a tree! Thus, he is considered "special" - his name is Socrates!
"If they ever tell my story,
Let them say, I walked with giants."
Possibly the most underrated movie of all time.
Let them say, I lived in a movie where Sean bean character survived
He survived in Percy Jackson
A rare and glorious thing!
This is so true :-)
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
i think you are mistaken on those movies that he survived he wasnt the main character
Never ever seen a more choreographed fight than that between Hector and Achilles. Achilles combat movement is divine.

@@aggelosavgoustidis4447 this show was an insult to history. who tf gives role of achilies to a black guy
@dovecar6605 it couldn't be any other white actor either. Brad Pitt was as good of a casting for the role as it gets.
"I chose nothing, I was born & this is what I am."
"We'll meet again soon, my brother." Recognizing his enemy as equal.
From my point of view, he never underestimated or considered his enemies as inferiors compared to him, if it was the case he probably wouldn't care if people would remember his name, i think he knew that in his anger he disrespected the man he fought, he knew Hector was a great warrior too, being enemies doesn't mean to not be brothers, the only difference is the side you landed in, Achilles knew he was fighting brothers (trojans) but his purpose was above any brotherhood and any love story ( he lost Briseis because of his anger in the film ) or whatever. I love this film.
I guess he regrets dragging him down.. that is why he cried.. because after all hector did deserve to die.. but he could be just shoved with arrows at the gate.. Hector fought him 1 to 1 as he wanted too.. but he could have done what hector wanted.. and not let his pride took over.. dunno if that is why that he died. . he deserve to die because of that.. after all .. he didnt needed to drag him with the horses and saying a no to him when he asked for a proper funeral.. that was just not honorable and really sad.. consumed with hatred and vengeance
@@lnvaynDue to Hector killed his cousin and best friend brother Patroclus...he didn't know but its a logic situation and anger took control of Achiles!
that scene was incredibly heartbreaking. Achilles realized the gravity of what he had done, disrespecting the dead. Disrespecting a worthy and honorable opponent.
Troy has some of the best fight scenes in movie history.
Last samurai better
I actually never saw a movie to portray the ‘wahh’ effect of an ancient battlefield like Troy did.
Game of Thrones beat that with the season 7 episode 4 scene where daenerys and the dothraki pulled a surprise attack (and later on totally ruined it with the dejected battle with the undead), but GoT loose eventually with a small scale scene compared to Troy’s h-u-g-e battlefield size and longevity.
Lord of the Rings was also close with its epic battle scenes, especially with the last ride of the king in the 3rd (“deeaathhh” roar), and it even had kind of equal scale to Troy’s battlefield size and longevity, but of course looses in realism and therefor in battle drama and tactical development.
😍😍
The fight choteography is really excellent. Every move is a potential death blow.
@Jack Tangles
Asia makes a bunch of choreograph-porn disguised as a story. It's all over long, over fetishized, and overwrought. Might as well listen to two hours of improvised jazz music masturbation. Get to the point.
"That's why no one will remember your name." So good. Only the brave who act are remembered by history.
“Is there no one else!?” That quote reminds of the famous line from gladiator, another spectacular masterpiece, “are you not entertained!?” Just makes me think that such perfection can never be replicated in modern day movies.
Achilles was Brad Pitt's most memorable and iconic role of them all..
Nah

Historical point = Homer in the Iliad and the Odyssey speaks only of Danaans, Achaeans, Argians and not of Greeks.
The Hellenes (tribe of Southern Thessaly also called Argos Pelasgians), at his time, did not constitute yet a people or a Nation (Thucydides I,3).
He affirms in the Iliad that "Zeus is Pelasgians and dodonean" (XVI,234).
Precisely these Pelasgians (🇦🇱) were considered by all the ancient Greek authors as "the first inhabitants of Greece" before "The arrival of the Hellenes (🇬🇷)"!
Another word that was misunderstood or glossed over. Indeed the Greeks arrived from somewhere because they were not indigenous.
As they did not come from the North ( one wanted to make us believe the opposite), they could only be foreigners coming from elsewhere.
It is this elsewhere which is difficult to define very precisely. But the legends, which are only embellished, idealized or metaphorized historical facts, give us some precious indications on the first foreign ethnic groups having occupied the country of the Pelasgians: the Danaans (Egyptians from whom the Dorians descend), the Cadmeans (Phoenicians) and the Pelopides (Assyrians).
Among the peoples of archaic Greece the Ionians, Aeolians and Arcadians were descendants of the Pelasgians, indigenous populations conquered by the Hellenic invaders: they could claim to be indigenous populations.
Now Herodotus explains very well that the Ionians were Pelasgians who, after having rubbed shoulders with the Greeks and learned their language, became full-fledged Hellenes...
The Ionians were thus a fraction of the Pelasgians people (🇦🇱) having adopted the civilization of the Hellenic invaders (🇬🇷), assimilated their culture and integrated their ethnicity ( Herodotus I,56,57,58/VIII,44 ).
Etc ...

That “I’ve known men like him my whole life” “no you haven’t” edit is so clean. And although it’s not that way in the film, it’s true, there are no men like Achilles. He is the greatest warrior in history

"Imagine a king who fights his own battles. Wouldn't that be a sight?"
Legendary acting for a legendary character.

Roughly the same time scale between us and the first crusade, which is absolutely mind blowing..
This same line was used in GoT by Tyrion Lannister to Joffrey
Good example is Leonidas to

"There are no pacts between lions and men." He killed him with this sentence before the fight began.
That's actually straight from the Iliad, one of my favourite lines
Would hit him with.........so ......it is true. 2 Great lions will fight, just as the God's promised. Smiles
Are we all going to ignore the fact the Achilles was literally invincible? Achilles even knew this, and our interpretation of the fight when we read it in class was that it was incredibly dishonorable. Not to mention Achilles disgracing the body of Hector afterwards.
Gabriel Martin if he was invincible than he wouldn’t bother with the shield
@@tylerpardue5431 you know how the story of Achilles goes, right? He gets dipped in the pool of invincibility as an infant and all that?
This is a different Achilles than the mythological one, but I do love his story. Not just a classic hero looking for a final blaze of glory before his fate inevitably catches up to him, but also, in the end, a hero in the more modern sense of the word. While he does get to live on as a legend like he wanted, right in that final moment he realizes his priorities have shifted. All he cared about in the end was to save his one hope for a normal life, Briseis, even if he knew he wouldn’t get to enjoy that life with her. The final battle of who once was an egotistical glory seeker was not fought for himself, but for someone else.
And I mean, is this a message that has way more of Tolkien than it has of Homer? Hell yes. But since the movie’s called “Troy” and not “The Iliad”, and the actual Iliad is still there to read, I really don’t see any problem. I love both for different reasons.
As a Greek I want to thank Brad Pitt for this adaptation. Best Achilles ever!

Warriors will always get more fame and recognition than simple builders ,where I'm from the only reason u would work a civilian job is cuz u weren't good enough for the army
@@Mcbignuts Builders from engineers to brick layers turn imagination into reality via construction and development.
Soldiers destroy imagination back to its base components, they kill others they don't know and have no personal quarrel with, on command of pettier greedier men far above them many of whom had never seen a hard days work in their lives despite ordering men to slaughter others for their own gains alone.
From a modern humane perspective there is only Glory in war, for those who don't understand the folly of it. And where I am from a majority now join the military because capitalism failed to provide them with any other opportunity in life. For example the primary reason people join the US military today is healthcare and education, for many they don't give a shit about patriotism and glory. They are not joining to serve, they are joining to get what they can get, then get the hell out.
@@Nine-Signs what a sad miserable place u must live in if that's the state of the military ,sounds like a sorry jobs program for rejects and failures
Out of personal experience I can assure u that not everyone joins the military to suck up benefits like a leech ,there still are patriots and warriors out there
@@Mcbignuts”Any slave can build”? Seriously? Building, creating, in any field or department, is the best thing we humans are capable of. Fighters and soldiers totally are to be honored, but because they are willing to give their lives to defend and protect. Not to attack and destroy. That’s why Hector is such a great hero and a warrior worthy of bearing that title with honor. Because he has a “hope for the best, prepare for the worst” mentality. The one you’re suggesting is pretty much “prepare for the worst and then go looking for it”.
I watched this countless times... editor, the fine detail of scenes to the words spoken is truely beautiful.
“Life is more beautiful because we are doomed.” 😭♥️💕
Yes. death is beautiful.
I felt that 🥶
😔
Whitewashed people....
When Brad Pitt was playing Achilles in Troy he ripped ironicly his Achilles tendon.He looked amazing and did a great job here easily one of his best performances.
Atleast 4000 years old and we still remember his name
“There are no pacts between lions and men...”
💯
What
From the poem!
2021 the saying is "They say Lions are king of the jungle, yet you will never see a Wolf in a circus"
@@clghost3294 what does that saying actually mean tho ?
@@athenachild001 means a lion can be tamed to do tricks and a wolf cant, irony is king of the jungle yet can be made to follow and a wolf wont and is a tougher animal in the end
No other human being could pull off Achilles. Incredible.
I agree!
Yes
He should have at least gotten an Oscar nomination.
That is a fact! He is the man!
why ty u
“I chose nothing. I was born, and this is what I am.”
Am I the only one who watch this masterpiece at least once a week?

Napoleon
Then Alexander came along
King Leonidas of Sparta
Snehal Chow Spartan kings fighting on the frontline was normal though; they had two kings at a time and one would always go with the army
It’s worth noting though that the Iliad and specifically Achilles were so popular among ancient Greeks (many Greek kings would carry a copy of it with them on campaigns) that it inspired men for hundreds of years to go and seek glory in battle. It was an era where all Greek kings still able would fight alongside their men in an attempt to emulate Achilles.
Everybody dies. And quickly is forgotten.
But thousands of years later, we all remember Achilles' name.
I got to hand it to them, the Greeks know how to die.
Ahahahahahahahahahah yes back then we used to know how to go out with a bang.
Look at the great Leonidas
I mean in any warring culture. There is always a motivation to die.
Brad Pitt was born for this movie - his name will be remembered for a 1000 (thousand) years. Eric Bana , Orlando Bloom . . . Epic ! Simply Epic !
What a performance ! 🔥 words don't do justice to describe this performance.
I don't know how many times I have watched this movie. Never gets old. Such character!
" . . . There are no pact between men and Lions . . ." Achilles
Love from Zambia - 🔥🇿🇲
Let them say, i lived in a Time of Achilles...Now thats how you end your Story
When I've watched the movie, the death that got to me the most was Hector's, as he was probably the most righteous out of all the characters. You just knew, that when he went 1 on 1 with Achilles, he had no chance.
in the Iliad Achilles chased Hector around the walls of Troy 3 times before he would come out and fight. Even then it was only because he was tricked by Athena.
Bob the Builder If we count that Athena exists, which she doesn’t so Hector was stupid
@@anoldtimer don't force your beliefs onto others 🙏🏾 it's one thing for you to personally believe Athena doesn't exist. It's another to make it a fact like everyone should believe it too
He was probably the only fighter who had any chance against him.
@@stevem2323 Not even close. The Ethiopian king Memnon was the one who had a chance against Achilles. He was the son of a goddess and a mortal man, same as Achilles and a very skilled fighter. He even managed to wound Achilles but in the end he was killed.
“There are no pacts between lions and men”
That my be true, but Hector allowed the lion cub a proper burial. We live in a society, we need less lions and more honorable men. Achilies is a tale of something to be weary of, rather than a model, at least to me.
Vlad Tudor Miron true, hector was the better man and we need more of those. But Achilles was still the better swordsmen and he was hot 😍
Vlad Tudor Miron Very true. The Iliad seems to be more of an anti-war story. Achilles’ anger is a focal point of the poem and acts as a cautionary tale more than anything.
Homer.
@@denisevlasveld1507 That's not good denise
Amazing edition. Truly, you have honored Achilles.
I swear to god i watch this almost every day
Hector and Achilles are honestly two of my favorite characters in all of fiction. Whether I'm reading the Iliad or watching Troy, these characters are absolutely unforgettable.
They are not fiction. They are as real as King Arthur, William Wallace, Julius Caesar, Alexander the Great David and Goliath and Jesus Christ. Obviously over time the stories become more exaggerated and become mythology.
@@bieituns Ηοmer wrote iliad and odyssey...its fiction
@@sta9hsblnos43 Yes and people think the bible is fiction and the Koran. But many of these stories aew based on real people. How do you know homer wrote it? It is only presumed he wrote it. It was thousands of years ago. Did the Trojan war not happen either? I think you will find many of these tales are based on fact.
Imagine the team up together they be unstoppable
they were not characters...they were men who walked this earth, bled, and died...
The gods envy us
They envy us because we are mortal
Cause any moment might be our last
Everything is more beautiful because we are doomed
TRULY A MASTERPIECE
Edit:oh god thx so much for the likes thats awesome❤
I always thought mortals were like peasents. But this makes me think how honourable and brave some mortals were in history like Alexander and Achilles if he truly was real.
@@hi-qj9vz i always adored mortals in other words us because we are blessed with happy lives emotion and feeling and finally death and whatever follows after that
@@josueavila5210 Imagine being immortal. Are you truly courageous since you know you can't die? Are you truly in love knowing you can never lose the person you love the most?
Death gives a sense of purpose and urgency.
Each second matters.
We will never be here, this exact moment, ever again.
@@hi-qj9vz I don't care. I don't want to die. But I know I will.
@@hi-qj9vz k
A classic! The best. All the actors were just made for this movie. I like the legendary aspect. Wow
The extended version of Troy is such an underrated epic.
What does Achilles and Zurik both have in common? Long after our time, they'll still be remember. Our dust from bones will be gone, but this video will remain. Let them say we lived in the time of Zurik, maker of masterpieces, tamer of fandom.
Thank you so much, man! :)
@@Zurik23M Big fan of everything you produce! Quality like no other, the emotions are strong with this one.
Ryan Kelly, I couldn't have said it better myself. Spot on my man. Zurik is a gift amongst gifts!
@@Zurik23M You're like Homer, not a legend yourself, but through writing/creating masterpieces you will obtain immortality.
Nice one👍🏾
"You will never be lovelier than you are now, we will never be here again" that has to be one of the strongest lines I've ever heard and a very sad fact
It really moved me when the Trojan king said to Achilles "I loved my boy from the moment he opened his eyes until the moment you closed them." "How many men have fallen before your sword brave Achilles? How many brothers and fathers and uncles?"
I come back to this edit every couple months and every single time I’m just simply amazed. By the movie, by the acting and this wonderful edit. Hands down best edit of a movie Ive ever watched!
Achilles was the greatest.
Hector was the bravest.
@Philip Manousakis you would have to be pretty bloody brave to fight Achillies even when you know hes going to kill you haha
@Philip Manousakis yeah thats a fair call. There is speculation that they may have actually been real people as they have found ruins of a burned down city where Troy would of been (around the same time they reckon too) makes you wonder how many fictional storys/myths may have been based off actual people. Fascinating shit really haha
I would say, Achilles was the bravest and hector was the most courageous.
Sounds like ancient Ali vs. Frazier
achilles is a perfect killing machine but hector is a perfect character... achilles fights for his glory but hector fights for his country and family. which is one is the most weights?
“You gave me peace in a lifetime of war”
❤️
Yeah many many good quotes in this moving , but this was definitely one.
Who's U?
@@nelcorazs Achilles is telling this to Briseis.
@@GreySeren No, this isn't about Achilles. Who tf is U?
“That’s why no one will remember your name”
The best line in the movie, whenever somebody tells you not to do something because its hard or scary,
you answer them “THAT’S WHY NO ONE WILL REMEMBER YOUR NAME”
Brad Pitt as Achilles and Luke Evans as Dracula are 2 of my all time favorite roles.
Yooo literally my two favorite movies of all time no cap the fact you brought up both movies together is crazy
Favorite movie of all time... Achilles was a straight up savage, but Hector was a savage as well... That scene when the King asks for his body back gets me every time.
Historical point = Homer in the Iliad and the Odyssey speaks only of Danaans, Achaeans, Argians and not of Greeks.
The Hellenes (tribe of Southern Thessaly also called Argos Pelasgians), at his time, did not constitute yet a people or a Nation (Thucydides I,3).
He affirms in the Iliad that "Zeus is Pelasgians and dodonean" (XVI,234).
Precisely these Pelasgians (🇦🇱) were considered by all the ancient Greek authors as "the first inhabitants of Greece" before "The arrival of the Hellenes (🇬🇷)"!
Another word that was misunderstood or glossed over. Indeed the Greeks arrived from somewhere because they were not indigenous.
As they did not come from the North ( one wanted to make us believe the opposite), they could only be foreigners coming from elsewhere.
It is this elsewhere which is difficult to define very precisely. But the legends, which are only embellished, idealized or metaphorized historical facts, give us some precious indications on the first foreign ethnic groups having occupied the country of the Pelasgians: the Danaans (Egyptians from whom the Dorians descend), the Cadmeans (Phoenicians) and the Pelopides (Assyrians).
Among the peoples of archaic Greece the Ionians, Aeolians and Arcadians were descendants of the Pelasgians, indigenous populations conquered by the Hellenic invaders: they could claim to be indigenous populations.
Now Herodotus explains very well that the Ionians were Pelasgians who, after having rubbed shoulders with the Greeks and learned their language, became full-fledged Hellenes...
The Ionians were thus a fraction of the Pelasgians people (🇦🇱) having adopted the civilization of the Hellenic invaders (🇬🇷), assimilated their culture and integrated their ethnicity ( Herodotus I,56,57,58/VIII,44 ).
Etc ...
Yeps. This and the Dark Knight
An incredible warrior and the best Homer's character.
Charles Martel Le Francs Same I think Hector is the greatest hero
@@uf2794 Hector is a hero, Achille is a legend.
@@vince7520 You need to read the book because Diomedes is right up there with Achilles and Hector, he so scary (Diomedes) even the gods are frightened by him
I suggest you read The Iliad book, it actually has so many characters in it that are amazing. Diomedes is just as legendary as Achilles and Hector.
@@uf2794 I think Eric Bana made him a truly great hero
Dope video. Gives me chills everytime i listen to it. Achilles is a way of life. (Being the best version of yourself) Fearless, Courageous, fighting to the end and living with respect and honor.
If Marvel had made their movies 20 years ago, Brad Pitt would have been Thor...
no, thor was large and muscular and I think Hemsworth nailed the part

Lotr, Troy, Gladiator, most epic movies ever. Wish they could make em like this. Instead of fast and furious repeats
Couldn’t agree more
2000s movies were best
You forgot Braveheart 1995
A lot of that just doesn't happen on the silver screen anymore; it happens in TV series,
Precisely!
probably my favourite movie of all time, ive watched it countless times
The shield work itself is absolutely beautiful. Ballet on the battlefield.
The scene where Priam begs Achilles for Hector’s body continues to be my favorite. So moving and well acted. Achilles fighting style in this movie is a thing of beauty, and his romance with Briseis, poetic perfection.
This tribute was amazing! Love this film!
Me too! Out of many epic scenes in this movie, that scene is my number one. It embodies what Maximus and his people say in the movie Gladiator, "Strength and HONOR(US)/HONOUR(UK)".
well said
@Jack Tangles Thank you sir. I will edit it out. Is my usage of the word "embodies" in the sentence correct? Sincerely asking.
