There better not be a gladiator 2... leave this masterpiece alone
Na it’s time for another gladiator film
If they make a gladiator 2 ... get ready for some forced diversity and feminism boys
Hollywood is gonna ruin this
Warriors 2???
If they make it for money itll suck if they make it to try and match the 1st it might do okay, but still I wouldn't fuk with it.
One of the greatest movies in the last 50 years. This is a stand alone movie and should not be diminished by a sequel.
you can't diminish what has already been experienced
You're right. That's why Disney will acquire the rights and F it up. In the next Gladiator, Maximus will be a black trans chick.
I agree wholeheartedly with your factual statement, some movies should be left well enough alone!
@@joxyjoxyjoxy1Maximus is dead.
@@LordMalice6d9 That little detail won't stop Disney.
I feel that a lot of the writing for dialogue is underrated in Gladiator. When Lucilla says Maximus is lying, but he quips back "I never acquired your comfort with it." Or when Commodus tries to provoke Maximus by insulting his dead wife and child, Maximus replies with "The time for honoring yourself will soon come to an end." Or when Maximus is doing a speech for his army "What we do in life, echoes in eternity!" So many masterful lines that if were written today, would probably be written much simpler and not nearly have the same effect it did.
Oliver Reed's oratory to Maximus about the coliseum, the crowd, the storm and thunder god himself is one of my favorite moments in cinematic history.
Hence, all the more amazing that the script was only 1/3 finished when they began filming.
@@debrahouston2884 You would think a movie like that would be a disjointed mess. Die Hard was done the same way. In fact, the ambulance they were to escape in is not in the truck when the bad guys first come out of it. No one noticed.
I think that Phoenix nailed it, and was brilliant in delivering the best, most convincing and frightening depiction of an evil and depraved Roman emperor.
Yes, he should have gotten an Oscar too ! -
Yes! Phoenix is ALWAYS convincing, every role I've personally watched him in. He immerses himself in his characters so completely that I never have a problem suspending my disbelief.
Gladiator is a classic. I went to see it at the cinema when I was 16. Russell Crowe deserved to win the Oscar for his portrayal of Maximus.
One of the few movies I've ever seen in person where people actually stood up and clapped at the end.
I was 16 too when I saw it in theatres with both family and friends. :) Got me heavily into Roman history as my favorite movie of the time.
Shortly after, in basic training, they made me platoon leader. They then revealed our names would be Gladiators. Dream come true! :)
Yeah it was masterpiece
@Daniel Williamson I absolutely agree that Crowe deserved best actor Oscar. Should have been best movie too, but that honor was given I recall to 'Crouching tiger, Hidden Dragon', a movie depicting people floating above bamboo trees, LUDICROUS NONSENSE!!!
@@stevenbarrett4110 Beginning of woke destroying everything worthwhile. After all, Gladiator was about a very masculine, honourable (white) man who was faithful to his dead wife and child. Everything the woke detest!
Gladiator doesn't need a sequel. Master and Commander, on the other hand, could use a few. Most period accurate naval film and just such a good watch. 🙌🙌
It was such a disappointment to learn they didn't go for it even though the animo was there ..
Simply because it didn't land as massively as Gladiator;
Which, in part, was due to the promotion, wanting to lift on the success of Gladiator and selling it as some sort of Gladiator at sea....
So the wrong public is drawn and leave in disappointment
Yet as time has shown there is an audience, and the movie is widely praised
I'd pay good money for a Master and Commander sequel. With the same cast
@@ShogunEorling No they reboot with all female cast 👍
@@glennross85 classic 1800's british navy
@@glennross85 female, coloured, trans, disabled and gay and that would just be the captain lol
I never get tired of watching Gladiator.
Gladiator is one of my favourite films. It's timeless. It's art. Please don't ruin it by making a sequel. It doesn't need it.
You are right,its perfect as it is.
Literally everyone dies in the film it isn't possible
@@duolingo0552 of course it could. Prequel or sequel with another hero.
no, if they try to make another one just ont watch it. this is a stand alone movie
@@kevinwest942 Let me be very clear. NO.
My Son and I went to see Gladiator and both loved the movie. The acting
and directing were superb. Rewatching the movie brought up the same emotions as the first time I saw it. A great movie.
I can not bring myself to believe there will be a second. Without Crowe or Phoenix in there, I just can’t see it being done as well. This movie was an instant classic and still stands in my top ten, maybe top five.
It's being done with another happy Imperial Roman family, the emperor Severus, who was fighting in Northern England, in the company of his two psycho sons. When Severus dropped dead, the two sons raced each other back to Rome, the winner supposedly to take the throne. Their mother, Julia Domina, tried to keep them off each other's throats. But the oldest son got to Rome first, later killing his brother, finally being murdered, eventually.
Gladiator is a great movie with terrific acting and a great storyline. It really is a movie that can be watched ,more than once. Loved the movie.
One of the best films ever, and you are right it never gets old and is one of those films that had the best ending and NEVER needs a sequel ❤
You don't mess about with a masterpiece let it stand for the ages.
Loved Gladiator ,❤️.. have seen it have seen it many times.. the end scene where his body is lifting off the ground and floating and then he goes to see his wife and son has caused tears in my eyes many a times!
Great movie & great acting 👍
I cry everytime!! 😢
"He was a soldier of Rome. Honor him!"
I hate when I see Gladiator show up on the channel guide because I can't keep from watching it again. I must have seen this movie a dozen times! It's epic. It's an icon. The acting, the scenery, the music, the legionnaire costumes, it's all perfect. I'm surprised they are making a sequel. You can't improve on perfection! As there will never be another 68 Mustang, a 71 Cuda, a 68 Charger or 35 Auburn Speedster, there will never be another Gladiator!
Indeed - You can't improve on perfection! - But unfortunately, Money rules - and sequels are made to squeeze the last trop of blood out of a top class movie ! -
@@HartmutJagerArt Sadly, you are absolutely right.
Don't forget the 67 Cougar!
As a lover of all historical based movies, Gladiator was a powerful, emotional achievement. Its aged well too.
I'd say it only aged well if you don't actually know roman history
@@jamesmeppler6375 or if you realize it's not a documentary but a ficticious film
@@midnightprince30 then what's the point? They chose to make it about history...that's the reason it's the way it is. Instead of making master and commander which has nothing to do with anything except colonials sailing. Which is acceptable because it's not TRYING to be something it's not
For me it was Troy, followed by Conan the Barbarian (1982)
@@CountNadir Conan is classic.
Best action movie I’ve ever seen.I watched it in the theater when it first came out Jauquin Phoenix should have gotten oscar.
Gladiator is in my top five all time. I can and do watch it over and over again. Great video
I've watched this movie many, many times. I never tire of it!
Gladiator may be one of the best films of our time. Such a great classic drama.
If Gladiator 2 ever comes out it has one of the biggest pair of boots to fill in history.
Ridley Scott needs to perform nothing short of a miracle to even make a product that is just as good as Gladiator.
Making an even better movie.... Don't think it can be done.
It won’t ever be matched or surpassed.
Oliver Reed is one of my favorite actors of all time. I can not thank Ridley Scott enough for opting to finish the film with cgi, and a rewrite to accommodate his death, instead of having insurance pay for reshoots. RIP Oliver Reed, you made the air move
Yes he was an Alkys Alky. (alky =alcoholic)
@@scanbhoy67 an alcoholics alcoholic? What does that mean? I haven’t heard that reference before.
@@dickhitswater4836 To be understood as A king among alkoholics, a real professional, Olly Reed was certainly that.
Oliver Reed is my cousin. My mom knows some more history about him. Although we've never met him.
To believe he was cgi makes me laugh. The technology wasn't advanced in 2000
I really liked Maximus' charisma and leadership when he shouted "single column, single column" while training his sword to give instructions to his fellow gladiators. Truly depicting a general on the battlefield. A lot can be learned in this scene. Wow, I watched this movie more than 15 times...
This movie is still my all time favourite movie! Such a classic!
One of the striking things about this movie and history, is the fact that it’s the Roman (Italians) who are the cohesive, incredibly disciplined army and the Germans (tribes) who are a chaotic mess as warriors. Italy’s history is one of the most fascinating in the world
Roman history is not equal to Italian history while Italian history certainly has a lot in common with Roman culture. At the time when this movie is taking place a lot of the soldiers in the Roman army already were Germans and other tribesmen from bordering regions.
@@brexistentialism7628 Let’s not pretend Italians are not directly descended from the great civilization that was Rome. It lasted millennia so Germans are in no way responsible for the glory of Rome. I know it’s now fashionable to change history to spare people’s feelings but anyone who knows a bit of history knows what reality is.
It's interesting that all western languages have much of their words rooted in Latin because it was spread so widely, and yet modern Italy didn't spread as much as other European countries in subsequent centuries.
@@dacutler Well, no because Italy never had the great empire that was Rome. Italian itself descended from Latin. However, I’ll bet if we were able to go back in time and listen to a Roman speak, I’ll bet they had an Italian accent.
@@wplains My point was there is evidence of the people who came from the land we now call Italy, could be argued to be one of the most powerful colonialists of all, but that source didn't do anything like that in the next 2000 years. Spain, France, Great Britain, Portugal, The Netherlands Belgium all established colonies throughout the world, but Italy didn't.
As a retired tech teacher, I will give you an "A+" on you film report. Great content on one of my favorite films. Thanks for your hard work, enjoyed it...

This film came out when I was a senior in high school, and my class watched it at a New Years party. I loved it, and have been a fan ever since. The casting was just perfect, from Russell Crowe to Joaquin Phoenix!
Great video about one of the best movies out there.
Fun fact:
I love the scene at 4:51 after he says "Are you not entertained?" and it cuts to the scene with a wide shot of the audience has that individual with white shirt and blue jeans on the left just chilling out and enjoying the show. The editing department let that one slip.
lmao i can see a camera there as well
Great catch. I didn't realize the Romans invented denim and maybe cowboy boots.
So there is 😂😂 i never noticed that one before. Good spot
Wow never saw that! Good one!
I gotta take a screen shot and zoom in. The modern dude is on the left with jean. Haha.
What we do in this life echoes in eternity!
"This" life ?
If you're going to quote it , don't fuck it up
As insane as Commodus is in this, I feel like they actually downplayed his cruelness.
they did. Few emperors came close to Commodus insanity. Not even Nero or Caligula got shit on Commodus.
Malcolm McDowell came the closest to portraying the real Commodus in film, and he wasn't even playing Commodus, but Caligula!
Best of the best would say nor shout out loud: What you do in life; echoes in eternity!
@@DamonNomad82 except they didn’t show sex with his horse
@@3weiter I'm going to have to read up on Commodus then. To be more insane and depraved than Caligula? Oh boy.
Quite simply a masterpiece of our times.
The fire arrows used in the beginning were also an anachronism that Ridley Scott deliberately chose over historical accuracy. I believe his quote from the audio commentary was, "I know they didn't use them but I wanted fire arrows, dammit, so we're going to have fire arrows."
Let us Not Forget - Gladiator is NOT a Documentary but a Movie ! -
Ridley Scott is renowned for warping history! but his films ae so entertaining. Don't rely on them for historical accuracy just sit ack and enjoy.
Thank you for your amazing backstories behind (one of ) The Greatest movies ever made.
I rewatched it recently & was moved beyond words yet again.🎥❤️🔥👏🏽👏🏼🏆
GREAT FILM REVIEW ~ THANK YOU!!!! As a Roman Legion Advisor/Adviser on history projects - the use of Roman Artillery - Ballista/Scorpio, Catapulta, Onager {like a Ballista}, Polybolos - repeating Ballista {multi fire}, all were in fact used in close areas such as forests and even urban areas where they could be moved and fitted. Roman Legions were VERY creative and used a great deal of trial & error and always adjusted and modified to the target and terrain. Often in Germania, Briton, and other areas of woodland warfare the Legions used artillery - it was crucial and often won the battle. Fire is a 'force multiplier' and the Romans used it well. Small systems could be moved with ground infantry and the larger systems held at a distance and used in unison to achieve objectives. The Roman Legions even used the Scorpios as "sniper weapons" and targeted individual targets to kill key persons or create problems in the enemy lines. Also Scropios were often integral with maneuver elements to act as direct support weapons. Good overview of a very well done movie. Be Safe & Well. Peace & Health
Thank you, Myelin, for setting their film review straight on this point! When he talked about this I was shocked by how he explained the use of this battle tool.
@@cindycollins2150 Thank You Cindy. As a former military officer, US Army, and a history trainer and adviser I have worked on many "Roman era" films and projects. This is a big issue often, since many productions do not even know the Roman Legions even had artillery. ALSO - PANTS!!! Romans wore pants!!! The "capri" knee high pants are so named after the island of Capri. Also called: Braccae (trousers). They were worn everywhere, part of the Legion uniform. IT gets crazy trying to explain this and even "so-called" experts forget the pants! Old saying: "Hollywood does not show it, because Hollywood does not know it." Peace & Health Cindy.
Also Scropios albit Scorpio's targeted individual targets to kill key persons
Peace & Health
RAFLMAO I'm laughing at the "to kill" and then he says, Peace & Health, lol (only noticed the misspelling when Grammarly said I spelled it wrong)
Marcus Crassus could have used some "creativity" at Carrhae.
@@carlmagrath6389 Thanks Carl. Be Safe & Peace and Health to Us All!
gladiator is one of my all time favourite movies!
the injustice maximus had to go through and his suffering i can relate to myself...
I love this film saying how it never gets bad it reminds me of saving private Ryan
I agree, same as green Mile and shawshank
Definitely a lot like SPR in the way that despite it being over 20 years old it still looks brand new, was light years ahead of its time and is better than the vast majority of movies that came out well after it
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey true
Dude we just became best friends. My top two!
Outstanding video! Probably my favorite movie and I definitely learned more than a few things from watching this. Agree completely about the script that wasn't advanced for Gladiator 2!
It was a great movie and I purely enjoyed it for a great piece of fiction. The acting was good, the music was great and easy to watch over and over.
Gladiator is a great movie I have enjoyed many, many times. Thank you for your wonderful work.
I remember being about 9 years old (1999) and going to the set in the bourne woods. It was massive with structures, a village and various other bits that you didnt get to see in the film. I stole a few bits as well. An arrow, a hilt that I found on the ground. They completely altered the landscape to film there. It was MEGA!
Crowe.. to his credit... has made some of the most epic, historic movies of all time.. this movie, and "Master and Commander",are two of the best modern epics ever..and endlessly re-watchable.. Master and Commander, has tons of accuracy in it, in the real life of British Sailors, ships, etc..
Master and Commander was fantastic. Gladiator lost me at the opening battle sequence when Zulus were chanting, not Germans. Yeah, that chanting was lifted straight from the movie Zulu, which by the way you should see as it is incredibly accurate.
Yes!! A must watch!
A sequel. My my my. Big expectations on this.
Maximus to Commodus: “You have been afraid all your life!” Great line!
This was the only DVD I had when I got my first apartment. Watched it a thousand times I can repeat the hole movie aloud
The only thing that bothered me about this movie was when Maximus met the boy in Rome and got worried about getting recognized,but he was already the most loved General in the legions,everybody would know who he was.
One of the best movies of all time and your production was amazing! Thank you, well done!
Incredible film and among my top 5 all-time faves! Ridley Scott's work is par excellence!
"am I not merciful" ... Used this line so many times over the years
Phoenix's performance was excellent. Am surprised to hear he struggled with confidence.
This movie is in my top 5. Easily. I can always watch Gladiator.
I grew up next to Bourne Woods in Surrey and as a teenager I watched the filming of the opening battle. I still have an arrow from it. Also some home video somewhere. It was absolutely awesome to watch.
Put your home video on CZcams !
Strong work! Usually when folks tell you "things you didn't know" there's a good chance you DID know them. In this case, you've provided a list of things I mostly didn't know!
Thank you for doing the research so that I may learn about a movie I absolutely love. I can't see any other movie in the future, enflaming my emotions the way Gladiator did. Nothing comes close.
How about "Spartacus" ?
Great video! I agree … one of those movies one can watch over & over with no loss of enjoyment. But Oliver Reed ! What a feat of over indulgence!
I love Gladiator movie (2000). I was too young to watch the moive was released came in May 5, 2000, but I got a chance to watch the movie a few times in the late 2010's and the early 2020s and I love this movie. Also, I love listening and never get tired of listening to "Now We Are Free" with Lisa Gerrard's hauntingly beautiful voice at the movie credits along with Hans Zimmer's songs, " Honor Him" and "Elysium."
this is a very odd bot comment
Awesome details on one of my favorite movies of all time.
I watched this again recently as I saw a clip on CZcams and released I hadn't seen it in years. I loved it. It stands up perfectly as there is so little CGI. Just to fill out crowds and complete parts of buildings. It was also funny as I'd forgotten an actress I worked with played her handmaid, she appeared at 8:04 in this video. It really took me back to her playing Ophelia for my company just when this film came out. She retired but was a great actress.
Amazing video!! Thank you so much!!
Best line: "have i missed it? Have i missed the battle?"
Great comprehensive highlights on the film. Thank you!
The Ballista part isn't exactly wrong. The Roman empire used a sort of ballista called "Scorpio" which was used for siege and as "open battle Artillerie" they would have even been used in the infamous Varus battle.
Scorpio were much smaller with bolts more or less comparable to long bow arrows or stones/leadballs wouldn't have been impressive to see at all on the big screen
yeah the more historical inaccurate parts are the fact that the battle is happening in a forest and especially the cavalry charge through said forest.
It´s just a awesome movie. And movies like that don´t need a second one. It can´t be as good as the first one.
The 1st film I ever bought on DVD…amazing film and performance from Crowe and Phoenix
I was in what one would call a “life crisis” when this movie came out.
When I walked out of the theater my entire life perception had changed.
The “fix” still holds today.
It is the most important movie of my life.
I worked on American Gangster with Russell Crowe.
During a scene change the whole company had to walk across a grassy field
(Same area where Russel screamed at the kids).
Walking beside me was Russel.
He looked up at me (I’m tall) and ether wanted to say something or fool around (I bet money it’s the latter).
I couldn’t look at him.
It kinda bothered him and he starred me down.
I didn’t engage because it was too emotional.
I held back tears the whole walk which lasted 10/12 minutes.
In Gladiator, Russel was me!
A guy who held his ground when things were rough.
(We shot that scene on governors Island).
The whole shoot I avoided the guy.
Gladiator meant way to much to me.
It friggin fixed my problem.
Actors move on and don’t like to talk about their previous work.
But sometimes they should realize the importance of their work.
I would have told him but I couldn’t hold back the tears. Lol
Russel is a real “guy”!
We were barbecuing in back of the trailers one day and Russell boy a bunch of high-end steaks to the back.
He was flipping steaks with us like a regular guy.
It made it worse for me because the guy wasn’t an asshole.
My man Maximus.
“Thank Jesus that script never saw the light of day”……you said perfectly what we were all thinking as you rolled out that potential blunder of a good story.
Still one of my favorite films of all time still my fave Crowe & Phoenix roles
The best movie ever. Never get tired of watching. I fell in love with Maximus (LOL); he's charisma, integrity, faithfulness and loyalty that makes him the greatest of all.
Been binge watching your channel since yesterday and your videos are proper hour eaters! Love it
My wife worked on it and said Oliver Reed was lovely. The one night her and the crew didn't go drinking with him, is the night he collapsed and died. Everyone was devastated when they found out the next morning and his presence hung over the rest of the filming. She still speaks of the experience as one of the most enjoyable movies she has filmed. Oh and Oliver Reed hated Russel Crowe as did nearly everybody as he was basically a complete asshole.
It is my understanding that nobody likes Russel Crowe in real life.
Seeing Crowe today shows me Karma works. He reminds me so much of my ex-husband a total control freak who was jealous of our infant son. Crowe, like Marlon Brando before him, can be a good actor only with a strong director who keeps him in line, but there is narcissistic tendencies that leave him so disliked by many.
High sober achievers and drunks. notoriously don't get along. One of those life secrets people don't talk about.
@@carlmagrath6389 How do you know his wife wasn't there nor worked on the film?
@@carlmagrath6389 well my wife was there and it's nothing to do with my opinion. Infact nobody liked Russel Crowe as he was a total arse and from what i hear (as my wife still works in the industry) nothing has changed. Your comment is ridiculous and factually incorrect, so i shall take it with a large pinch of salt. He is a great actor but a horrible person, shame really.
There is no report that Commodus had an incestuous relationship with his sister, nor did hemurder his father, he was assassinated by the "wrestler ' Narssisus This stories are historically attributed to his predecessors , Caligula and Nero. Still the film is one of my favorites.
Outstanding video with excellent information. Proximo was a real badass and I gotta hear that Pavarotti now. Gladiator 2 was awesome news too. Thanks
One of fav all time I can never get tired of this movie as matter watched it last night probably for the 50th time ! Yes it doesn’t need a sequel
"Gladiator is a personal favorite, as it is beautifully shot and features an excellent cast. Despite any personal issues among individuals, their dedication to the art of acting was impeccable. Hopefully, the sequel can live up to the beauty of the first movie."
7:30 he did thumbs down to signal kill, but Maximus chooses to defy the emperor. That's how see it. So the thumb direction was correct.
Loved this movie, watch it over and over again
had to add, no clue, there was a sequel coming... ! ! ! ! new sub ! ! enjoyed immensely..
Honestly I've always thought that a sequel could've been done but around Proximo. It would essentially be a prequel, showing how Proximo went from a slave to the position he finally held before Gladiator starts.
....thats a prequel, not a sequel. And imo he didnt carry the movie enough to merit a feature film of his own.
Just watch spartacus blood and sands 😆
Something NOT mentioned in this video:
The chant you hear before the opening battle, supposedly by the Germanic tribesmen, was actually taken from the movie "ZULU"
Great video with amazing facts on this epic movie. Thanks Buddy for taking time and effort to collect these facts & make this video. Sadly so many did not commented on your video. Everyone commented on the movie Gladiator. As important the movie is, this facts video deserves to be appreciated too. Cudos. Keep the great work going.
Great movie. Never get tired of watching it. Joachim Phoenix stole the show though. Amazing acting.
There's one fact I do know ..
Joachim is amazing here ..
Offcourse first there is Crowe
Then rewatching you realise Phoenix is (at least) just as good and intense
Absolutely
Oh boy the weird storyline where Maximus transitions into the God of War would've been comical and also extremely terrible. 😂
I completely agree with your sentiments expressed at the end of your video re; the GLADIATOR sequel and your exclamation "jesus" referring to the super-natural plot involving Maximus made me laugh. Nice one cherub.
Nice video of a brilliant movie! More, please!
I have subscribed due to the quality and entertainment in this video!
Nice job!
One of my favourite films; I learnt a lot about the historical inaccuracies many years ago, I was particularly disappointed that Maximus never existed, but it is an excellent film! Thank you for your video!
Yes he did. If you read the first chapter in Marcus Auraleus’ book, it tells of each person and what he learned from him. Maximus most certainly in there.
He may not have existed as a person. But, I think he represents the entire community of gladiators who rebelled.
@@whaleymom76 But, to be pedantic, it still doesn't make it historically accurate. I do agree with you that most of the rebel gladiators who ever existed probably wanted to be free, Spartacus being the most well-known and the film has the feel of the times, to me as a non-expert. The Romans had wars against slaves who rebelled against them, I think about 200 - 300 years before Marcus Aurelius' time en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servile_Wars
I absolutely love this movie but I really wish Crowe’s character hadn’t died in the end. 😤😭
Excellent summary - a lot of new enlightenment for me!
I totally enjoy this❤ surprise to see the behind the scenes clips. Great Job
Crowe added the two horses on his breastplate. He tells Commodus' nephew that their names were 'Argento' and 'Scatto'. Argento means Silver and Scatto means Trigger; the two horses of The Lone Ranger and Roy Rogers.
Now THAT'S some trivia I didn't know! Thank you, I may never use it, but it's in my head now!
Gladiator endorsed olive oil. I would buy it!
1st time watching your presentation, very well done.
My favourite film of all time. I had the vhs and literally watched it so often until the tape broke
jokes on you field artillery are used by rome in classical period in land battles. shooting into the wooded area would certainly reduce its effectiveness somewhat but seeing how heavily fortified their position is one would assume they have a fairly long time to set up for battle or perhaps even fighting straight outside from their fort so yes those artilleries are definitely possible to be there.
I don't think Gladiator 2 should happen. It will undoubtedly be a disappointment. Gladiator - stands alone.
15:25 I always loved it how a Vampire (Marcus) Made it into the film while having the name Marcus in another film
Imagine Maximus turned into a Lycan just before being slaine LOL
One of my all time favorite movies. "Strength and honor" is a line I have used to motivate myself since I first watched it 🙏
What did Joaquín say at 2:04 I could not hear it clearly?
Am I not merciful? AM I NOT MERCIFUL!? You can tell that was improvised by how she flinches, she wasn't expecting that
@@Maesterful so you're saying she's a bad actor
If you like the movie Gladiator you should DEFINITELY watch Spartacus TV series. I must warn you however it's one of the most violent shows I've ever watched
Hard to go wrong with fighting men and naked women everywhere
The first season was the best.
Just sucked the original Spartacus actor died. Still my fav show ever.
But only watch the first 2 seasons.
This is one of my favorite movies! Thank you for this excellent video. The first movie was art. I hope the sequel will be it's equal!
Heres something else: I was standard bearer number 1 :-) full real armour (as opposed to the ABS stuff) couple of ripped up bears including a full black bear over my helmet and, the opening scene was simply awesome and loads of people were injured making it. We had real fuckin arrows with flamed tips fired from a sequencer.... "over our heads"!. Richard Harris was a gent, Crowe was hugely up himself. it was a fantastic experience overall.
Vow, sounds exiting! What do you mean by ‘Crowe was up himself’?
@@contagiousintelligence5007 He wouldn't smile or engage with the extras, Richard Harris did as did the other actors, he also had to do MANY takes. Anyway, it was a brilliant film and the effort on set was incredible
