Make sure you vote to choose what we watch next!
The curse of la llorona
The Shawshank Redemption please 😀
The usual suspects is a classic. Four weddings and a funeral is a hilarious rom com feat. Rowan Atkinson & hugh Grant. Hunt for the Wilderpeople by taika Waititi feat Sam Neill. The Shawshank redemption is number 1 tho like That sTuff said. Watch the woman in black for horror!
"A Quiet place" would be next to watch
It's gives you a brand new experience and it's popular though.
How come you missed it!
The green book is an excellent film, which looks at previous and current racism faced in America
“My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius. Commander of the Armies Of The North, general of the Felix Legions, and loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance in this life or the next.”
Still, to this day, one of the most badass lines I’ve ever heard. *TOTAL CLASSIC.*
Yes!!!
My favorite line is “are you not entertained”… give me chills!
read up on the actual historical maximus: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnus_Maximus
Greatest monologue of all time...and its greatness comes from the delivery more than the actual writing
My favorite line ever.
My favorite part is at the end, when Lucilla (the Emperor's daughter) says "He was a hero of rome, who will carry him." And little Lucius is the first to step forward, even though he's too small to do so.
Oh, the boy who played Lucius was 12, not "nearly 8"
This movie makes me cry SO MUCH at the end, it's literally a masterpiece.
Yes! And I wish they would have kept in that last scene: "Now, we are free. I will see you again, but not yet . . .not yet"
Hans Zimmer won an Oscar for The Lion King score. His breakthrough was years before this film. But in my humble opinion this is his best work.
Oops
@@whitenoisereacts It’s totally understandable. Gladiator capitalized on that success and catapulted Hans Zimmer. He became a mainstream household name after Gladiator. I remember hearing his songs with Enya everywhere. Even my parents bought the Gladiator soundtrack lol.
Ne er forget that you can see Mr zimmer in The first videomusic....... Video killed the radiistar anyone😏😏
@@emirned231 That song was the first one played on MTV, not the first actual music video, I think that was credited to Queen with Bohemian Rhapsody.
I find it interesting that Klaus Badelt was the composer of Pirates of the Carribean and Hans Zimmer produced it and parts of the Gladiator soundtrack sounds exactly like POTC.
Interesting fact: Gladiator is unofficially a remake of a mid-60's epic (The Fall of the Roman Empire) that covered the same material, the death of Marcus Aurelius, the reign of Commodus, and an imagined, honorable Roman general who has to sacrifice everything to save Rome.
They did use dogs in battle but they were mastiffs. Also an interesting fact is when a dog unit was utilized the Romans rubbed mint leaves on themselves because the dogs were trained not to attack anyone with that scent.
In the middle ages the mastiffs were used to pull knights off their horses.
Dogs have been fighting and hunting by our sides for thousands of years.
When man when to war it would only make sense that his best friend would go as well.
The emperor sells himself when he tells Quintas that a General is always in control and the men followed the general. Made him realize he had the power, not the emperor.
Oliver Reed who played Proximo, the slave owner actually died during the filming of Gladiator and according to IMDb - "it cost the company $3 million to recreate his face so he could "appear" in the scenes he still had left to shoot."
This guy at 32:11 was also in Braveheart. He was the guy who got married and his wife had to sleep with the British lord on her wedding night. I always notice him due to those distinctive facial scars which are real. He was also in season 3 of Westworld.
Yeah, he’s also in SONS OF ANARCHY
If you didn't already know, Tommy Flannigan's scars were result of his being robbed and attacked after leaving a DJ gig at a pub in Glasgow. While recovering in hospital, a friend suggested to make the most of his situation by going into acting. The rest is cinema history.
Fun fact: Gladiators swords are called Gladius so that's where gladiators took name of. It was their most valuable possesion
Yeah, That's sword in Latin
Except they didn't use the Gladius with the cavalry.
It was the Roman spatha sword an long sword from the celts
I agree, I think the sister did set up the soldiers to die. Just like she betrayed Maximus(although she didn't want to). Remember, at the beginning when she stated to Maximus, "Do you think me heartless?" And he stated, "I think you have a talent for survival."
Minor clarification. Those were Pratoreon Guard, not regular soldiers. She was working to turn his bodyguards against him.
I think it was probably LA Confidential that really launched Russell Crowe's career. Without that I doubt he'd have been given the lead role in such a big movie.
Oh, that’s true, either way he kills it in this movie!!
This and Master and Commander are Crowe's greatest roles.
Watching Russel Crowe win the Oscar for this movie is one of my favorite moments like...ever. He was shocked, which was adorable because he's so amazing in it. And I believe he made up "strength and honor" on set? So good. One of my top 10 favorite films for sure, and a wonderful reaction as always! If y'all haven't seen The Last Samurai, you should consider that one too..... ;)
The Last Samurai is a must see film. Infinitely beautifully shot with such a compelling story. Seriously this movie and Rain Man are the only movies where I like Tom Cruise.
Strength and Honour is the English translation of his high school’s motto.
Am I not merciful?!!!? That line always gets me every time...
Richard Harris, actor of the emperor, was the original Dumbledore is Stone and Chamber!! Only at the beginning of the video so if u figure that out later on, oh well lol
I knew his face was familiar to me!
@@Gnossiene369 fun fact, why not?
@@Gnossiene369 his comment had more of a point than yours.
Hey you guys another totally amazing and bad ass thing the Romans did… the colosseum was built with the perfect mathematical equations to have the announcer be heard around the whole colosseum!!! If you listen carefully the asshole with the fake red wig when he is talking before the battles you can hear him echo… and they also had a way to flood the colosseum floor to do ship battles and then drain the water out!!!!! Crazy cool!!
Joaquin Phoenix killed this performance 🔥❤️
Totally agree!!
@@whitenoisereacts I hope you react to more of his movies
Nobody does slippery and slimy but intelligent and treacherous like Joaquin.
Did you know that he's only seen two of his own films? He hates seeing himself on the silver screen. He said that “I don’t ever really want to see myself as the camera sees me … I don’t want to watch myself. Of course, there’s a part of you that’s curious for a second, and I have to constantly tell myself, ‘No.’ Because I know it’s not going to be of any value to me, and in fact it stands a greater chance of having a negative effect on future work.”
Joaquin is from my town - along with his siblings River, Liberty, Summer, & Rain. ❤
This was the first sword & sandles film since th 60's epics. The CGI element made it possible to create the spectacle again without building full sets.
Two other films that Ridley Scott filmed in Morocco that you definitely need to check out: Black Hawk Down and then Kingdom of Heaven (the director's cut o this one, not the butchered theatrical release)
Black Hawk Down is about the Battle of Mogadishu in 1993 and features a cast of guys that were either already big stars or would become big stars: Eric Bana, Sam Sheperd, Tom Hardy, Ewan McGregor, Orlando Bloom, Tom Sizemore, Ty Burrell, William FIcthner, Nikolaj Coslter-Waldau. (and like Gladiator it was scored by Hans Zimmer)
Kingdom of Heaven is about the Crusades and features Orlando Bloom, Eva Green, Jeremy Irons, David Thewlis, Brendan Gleeson, Liam Neeson, and, Edward Norton
Kingdom of Heaven it's just amazing, one of my favorites of all time
I've never watched the director's cut of Kingdom of Heaven. I keep hearing great things about it though. I'll have to check it out.
@@KellyBeam There are entire plotlines that were cut out, and it makes so much more sense than the theatrical version. If a Ridley Scott film has a director's cut, always watch that version. He knows what he's doing.
It is a masterpiece!!!
Secondly when Russell Crowe won the award for the best actor Joaquin phoenix hugged him and the comments were telling him to be careful 🤣 don't want to get back stabbed twice🤣
I love this movie😊 ❤
Thanks guys😊👍
Fun fact: did you know that Peter Jackson considered Russel Crowe as the part of Aragorn? (LOTR ) Russel was doing Gladiator 😊
That actually woulda been pretty cool IMO
@@whitenoisereacts Yes he is very likeable 😊
If Viggo Mortensen have turned down the part, I could totally see Russel as Aragorn 😊
But Viggo is perfect as Aragorn 😊
You must be watching an extended version, I've never seen some of those scenes and now I'll need to go watch that
The soundtack is amazing - and that's a fact. The track "Earth" is propobly one of my favourites.
Hans Zimmer's score for 'The Last Samurai' is totally epic....and that is a damn good film too
ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!?! ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED NOW!? Winner of 5 Oscars including Best Picture.
This was my first time seeing the whole theater gave the movie a standing ovation.
I tear up at the end every time
I literally just watched another Gladiator reaction before this and teared up. 45 minutes later.....😢
Excuse me?!! U watch other reactions???
Jk jk yeah, it gets me too
@@whitenoisereacts 😜
Joaquin Phoenix played the villain so well I had trouble watching him in other movies for a while after this
Likely this has been mentioned already, but if you fellows want another big-budget take on the exact same time in Roman history, look no further than The Fall of the Roman Empire from 1964. Emperor Marcus Aurelius is played by Alec "Obi-wan Kenobi" Guinness, Commodus by Christopher Plummer, and Lucilla by Sophia Loren. (If you've never before beheld Mme. Loren in action, after this you won't want to stop. Ever.) 😎
Master and Commander: Far Side of the World is another great Russell Crowe movie!
My favorite film of all time. Story, acting, cast, soundtrack, battles, costumes...This is just perfection ! It's just a shame (and kinda unfair in my opinion) that Zimmer and Phoenix didn't won an Oscar for this film
Richard Harris and Oliver Reed were probably the biggest names in this film.
@UThink UCan they may not have been in many films around that time but they were still famous. Being famous has nothing to do with recency.
I agree huge stars.. Man I loved Oliver Reed ( Hannibal)& Richard Harris ( man called horse) just 2 movies I grew up with RIP ..oh and of course love Russell and Joaquin.👍✌️
Ayeee! I requested this a while back, thanks for watching it :D love the channel
It does always grate on me slightly when I hear younger people saying a film looks great "for 2000" or whenever it came out, as if great-looking films were a new phenomenon. 2000 wasn't that long ago in the history of film. Watch Ridley Scott's Blade Runner from 1982...it's still one of the most beautiful films ever shot. Talent knows no era. By the way, there's plenty of green screen in this film...you think they built that entire Coliseum? Composite photography of one sort or another has been around practically since film began.
Lol I agree...after all a great looking film doesn't make the movie good...look at how awful The Last Jedi is even though it looked pretty.
Heck, look at some Charlie Chaplin flicks. He did a _lot_ of stunts, but locations were often added in.
The ending of this movie is so bittersweet. I cry every time!
So is Pirates of the Caribbean on the list now? The series may have turned into a joke, but the first movie is still amazing and worth a watch!
And the sequel...
i would definetly say the first three are worth watching.
@@datzfatz2368 Yeah, they're definitely still enjoyable and watchable. For me, 4 and 5 are where the series really goes down hill.
@@missjillmars yeah, I think the word that describes 4 and 5 best is: unnecessary. 1-3 is a very solid trilogy with a nice ending.
James: "I hope this is more historically accurate. I didn't know how inaccurate Braveheart was until we posted it."
Me: "Well, sorry I guess?"
Lol it’s fine
@@whitenoisereacts Still an absolutely AMAZING film.
“Our knowledge of any past event is always incomplete, probably inaccurate, beclouded by ambivalent evidence and biased historians. Most history is guessing, and the rest is prejudice.”
@@matthunter983 true but good thing the Romans wrote basically everything on paper. So we know ridicoulusly much about Ancient Rome and it‘s Glory.
If you want another recommendation from around the same time, you should watch The Mummy (the 1999 version with Brendan Fraser). It's a really fun action movie, if you want a change of pace from the serious epic films.
The first two are a really fun ride after that not so much.
The toilet is also called the commode. The root word for "accommodation". Came from his name, Commodus.
Regarding how Maximus was behind the kilkers of his family; the obvious point is that the servants of Commodus had ridden days ahead of Maximus. The second point is that Commodus' men had the advantage of a professional relay system on the way to Hispania (not Italia), giving the horses a break. Maximus had to ride the same two horses all the way there.
I always cry while watching this movie - it's just so well made!
The soundtrack with the woman singing always gets me in my feels haha
Aww cousin got his hair cut…it looks good!❤️
I finally watched this film 3 days ago bc it is my boyfriend’s favorite film. I bawled.
He’s got good taste
one of the best historical movie.
I love everything related to the Roman Empire. It was the greatest empire in the history of mankind. I would like to somehow go to Italy and walk through all the historical places, go around all the museums
I remember this playing on loop on TBS a few years ago, must have watched it three times in a row- awesome movie, one of my all time favorites.
The first time I've ever noticed this but at the start when the headless Roman guy comes back to the Roman lines and Maximus is going past the troops "blood and honour" etc, the background chant by the Barbarians is actually the Zulu chant from the 1964 movie "Zulu"
DIDNT KNOW THIS WAS COMING BUT IM EXCITED
If you want to watch Ridley Scott's spiritual successor to this film, it's Kingdom of Heaven, about the period between the 2nd and 3rd Crusade. Just make sure you watch the director's cut. It's a beautiful film.
So Maximus had lands in Southwest Spain (hence the ‘Spaniard’ nickname).
The most epic film I've probably ever watched. The score, the script and ever single actor including the side characters were excellent. I have admired Joaquin's acting in many movies but this was honestly his best performance for me. He was far more complex and menacing in this than as the Joker.
If you guys really want a good Gladiator series. May I recommend Spartacus Blood and Sand. It’s a beautiful series, and I’d love to see you watch it - plus it’s somewhat more accurate to how gladiators actually worked - tho Hollywood and TV series like to play it up compared to the actual history
Great reaction as always!
I always felt Comedus represented the corruption of Rome that let to it's eventual fall. Maximus represented the old ideals that built Rome to its glory at that time. This story was a sort of clashing of the two.
The woman plays an absolutely fascinating part, I could analyse her all day
For me, that's Hans Zimmer's best Score for a motion picture. It brings the mistery, the pain and the strengh of the story. Absolutly amazing piece "Now we're free" with Lisa Gerard.
30.34 that man is sooo good Tommy Flanagan was a brilliant actor who played alongside Mel Gibson in Braveheart I just love him soo much❤❤❤❤❤
This is my family's all time favourite movie. We literally watch it everytime it's on TV😁
13:27
His home was in Spain and they said in the middle of the night "ride until dawn" on a winters day in Germany, that would probably mean something until 7:30 am. If they rode north with him and sent out that squad to his spanish home at the same time, they could've had a head start of up to 15 hours.
Maximus state was in Hispania. He is then taken to north Africa by the caravan. So he actually run all the way from Germania to Southern Spain (most likely since it was the most romanized area of the Empire and where soldiers who had fought well were given land to retire).
He could have lived anywhere close to the Mediterranean sea. Where I live (Lleida, in the north-east of Spain) there’re vineyards.
@@judiit09 Yeah but usually for the area it seems more like Emerita Augusta area (Modern Extremadura) or Baetica.
@@Alejojojo6 I don’t see this that clear. It looks like the vineyards next to my house, but again, they’re typical from the Mediterranean area (Andalucía, Valencia, Murcia, Cataluña)
@@judiit09 Baetica (andalucía) and Extremadura region where the most populated areas (and the wealthier) in Hispania at the time and judging by Maximus status, wealth and the landscape of its state I think its rather one of those two. Those style of Mansions where seen commonly in those regions at that time. Baetica and the nearby regions of Emerita Augusta have among the largest and most luxurious homes in Hispania.
@@Alejojojo6 Tarraco was one of the most important Roman cities in Hispania and there were pleny of villae across Hispania (even in the north, in current Galicia or Navarra). I’m not saying you’re wrong, but there’s not enough evidence in the movie to know in which part of Spain Maximus lived.
@28:30, back in the day there was “bread and circuses” to distract the people from the things that really matter to their lives.
Now we have TV, Music and Social Media.
i love these films soo much like troy... historical films !! top greetz from austria thx for ur reaction guys
The movie that really launched Hans Zimmer was The Lion King (94). But this is also one of his best, for sure. The Thin Red Line also has a few themes that rank in my favorite movie themes period, in case anyone knows the details, "Jisas Yu Holem Hand Blong Mi" the orchestral version in particular. Soothes my soul, everytime ^-^
Personally, I think it's a bit of a shame how Zimmer has changed his style over the years. The mid 90s to early 2000s were really his prime I feel.
historic notes
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus 26 April 121 - 17 March 180 was Roman emperor from 161 to 180 AD and a Stoic philosopher. He was a member of the Nerva-Antonine dynasty, the last of the rulers known, but later, as the Five Good Emperors and the last emperor of the Pax Romana, an age of relative peace, calm, and stability for the Roman Empire lasting from 27 BC to 180 AD. He served as Roman consul in 140, 145, and 161.
Marcus Aurelius was born during the reign of Hadrian to the emperor's nephew, the praetor Marcus Annius Verus, and the heiress Domitia Calvilla. His father died when he was three, and he was raised by his mother and his paternal grandfather. After Hadrian's adoptive son, Aelius Caesar, died in 138, the emperor adopted Marcus's uncle Antoninus Pius as his new heir. In turn, Antoninus adopted Marcus and Lucius, the son of Aelius. Hadrian died that year, and Antoninus became emperor. Now heir to the throne, Marcus studied Greek and Latin under tutors such as Herodes Atticus and Marcus Cornelius Fronto. He married Antoninus' daughter Faustina in 145. After Antoninus died in 161, Marcus Aurelius acceded to the throne alongside his adoptive brother, who reigned under the name Lucius Verus. Under his rule the Roman Empire witnessed heavy military conflict. In the East, the Romans fought successfully with a revitalized Parthian Empire and the rebel Kingdom of Armenia. Marcus defeated the Marcomanni, Quadi, and Sarmatian Iazyges in the Marcomannic Wars; however, these and other Germanic peoples began to represent a troubling reality for the Empire. He modified the silver purity of the Roman currency, the denarius. The persecution of Christians in the Roman Empire appears to have increased during his reign, but his involvement in this is unlikely since there is no record of early Christians in the 2nd century calling him a persecutor, and Tertullian even called Marcus a "protector of Christians".The Antonine Plague broke out in 165 or 166 and devastated the population of the Roman Empire, causing the deaths of five to ten million people. Lucius Verus may have died from the plague in 169.Unlike some of his predecessors, Marcus chose not to adopt an heir. His children included Lucilla, who married Lucius, and Commodus, whose succession after Marcus has been a subject of debate among both contemporary and modern historians. The Column and Equestrian Statue of Marcus Aurelius still stand in Rome, where they were erected in celebration of his military victories. Meditations, the writings of "the philosopher" - as contemporary biographers called Marcus - are a significant source of the modern understanding of ancient Stoic philosophy. These writings have been praised by fellow writers, philosophers, monarchs, and politicians centuries after his death.
Commodus 31 August 161 - 31 December 192 was a Roman emperor who ruled from 177 to 192. He served jointly with his father Marcus Aurelius from 177 until the latter's death in 180, and thereafter he reigned alone until his assassination. His reign is commonly thought as marking the end of a golden age of peace and prosperity in the history of the Roman Empire the Pax Romana. Commodus accompanied his father during the Marcomannic Wars in 172 and on a tour of the Eastern provinces in 176. The following year he became the youngest emperor and consul up to that point, at the age of 16. During his solo reign, the Roman Empire enjoyed reduced military conflict compared with the reign of Marcus Aurelius. Intrigues and conspiracies abounded, leading Commodus to revert to an increasingly dictatorial style of leadership, culminating in his creating a deific personality cult, including his performing as a gladiator in the Colosseum. Throughout his reign, Commodus entrusted the management of affairs to his palace chamberlain and praetorian prefects, namely Saoterus, Perennis and Cleander.
Commodus' assassination in 192, by a wrestler in the bath who held him underwater, marked the end of the Nerva-Antonine dynasty. He was succeeded by Pertinax, the first emperor in the tumultuous Year of the Five Emperors.
Such a good movie
James: "C'mon someone push this guy in..." Me: "Miau-miau-miau! Yes-yes-yes!"
Love the Roman names in this movie: Maximus - Comidus - Proximo - Lucious.
Commodus was a real Roman emperor.
LA Confidential if you guys want to see another movie Russell Crowe is amazing in!
I agree, I'm hoping that is on their list :)
My dads favorite movie of all time we used to watch it together every time it was on tv.
And to think Mel Gibson turned down the Maximus role, this is probably the best acting from Russell Crowe that I’ve seen. And yes, the soundtrack was amazing! (RIP Richard Harris & Oliver Reed❤)
Good movie..the Romans actually were defeated in the Germanic forests ..one of thier worst defeats in thier history..and eventually were sacked by Germanic tribes who settled there..the Romans were the most powerful when they controlled less places around them but the whole system collapsed because of over expansion and corruption of power.
I like the contrast between the leadership styles of Maximus and Comados. Maximus has an internal set of principles that everyone recognized but Maximus never verbalized and people were intrinsically understood. He was the kind of person that we would hope to be. That's
Actually Maximus home was in Trujillo, Spain. So it would have been even longer for him there from Germania than to Italy, so thats probably why the Pretorian Guard got there faster.
4:47 Yes they had dogs on the battlefield. Hundreads of them. Ancient romans bred the ancestor of rotweilers.
The pitch drop makes Russel Crowe sound like Chris Hemsworth.
The colliseum was CG BTW. They duplicated parts of crowd and maybe some CG crowd.
Good reaction guys 😎
Have you guys already seen the four installments of Spartacus? It's a very good show based in that time period and I think you guys would really enjoy it, not even necessarily for reactions.
The Republic was never re-established, unlike what this movie depicts.
But actually the people of Rome still thought themselves as a republic, even though they have an emperor on the throne.
@@susah135 Doesn’t alter reality.
"What is it in me you hate so much?" The phrase that proved his mental situation if anyone wasn't sure before that.... i'm not sure if his father was right but he loved him and i think that he was protecting Rome and him too by not choosing him for the role of the next emperor. He wouldn't succed for many reasons he wasn't able to lead, he wasn't a good fighter and most important he wasn't a stable personality. It may be worst if he became the emperor with his father blesses.
Crowe was in a lot of films before this movie but he was not an A list star, LA Confidential was the movie that got him attention a few years before as that film won Oscars, but Gladiator put him on the map as an A Lister! Defiantly check out LA Confidential!
Not sure which big actors you meant besides Richard Harris and Phoenix, but l would add Oliver Reed ( Proximo)to that list. He and Richard were apparently quite the drinking hellraisers in their day.
When Anthony Lane, movie critic for The New Yorker, remarked that Reed had died during filming - he added, "the blood having finally passed from his alcohol-stream." 🙄
Not a very considerate thing to say in summation of a man's life...but (sigh), still cute. 🤭
I still cant believe that was the entertainment of the day Gladiators really were the celebrities of the day. Ridley Scott did an amazing job he deserved the directing oscar that he didnt get. Hans Zimmer is an amazing composer too really got the feel of the movie.
Isn't that much different to today. We still have boxing, mixed martial arts and other bloodsports between humans as well as bullfighting and trophy hunting.
It's slightly more toned down nowadays and more regulated but there's still many similarities between the ancient roman and greek empires and modern western civilisations.
@@charlielynch3916 at least they have a choice now to fight or not thank goodness and not get killed
@@katehamilton6934 oh yeah it's a lot better now in terms of having a choice. My point was just to highlight that the attitudes and public support towards that type of violence for entertainment hasn't really gone away, just the sports themselves have adapted for modern times.
@@charlielynch3916 I can see where you're coming from it's a different kind of entertainment but essentially the same
This gonna be an odd request I think but: Sunset Boulevard
I feel like it's just an amazing tragedy about a guy who wanted a pool, got a pool and died in the pool
You must react to The equalizer , which casts the legend DENZEL WASHINGTON
This director Redley Scott has good films guys. Good reaction👍
My favorite Russell Crowe film is Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World.
This film does not get near enough love.
Great movie! If you want another great team up of Crowe and Scott, please react to "American Gangster" (which also has Denzel) 🎥 💓 🍿
Master and Commander, Russel Crowe is so good in it. Great movie about friendship.
The other big actor in Gladiator, you're probably thinking of Richard Harris.
Harris' son, Jared Harris, is amazingly good as well. He really shone in Chernobyl with Stellan Skarsgaard.
Great choice!!!!!
For your next film I’d love to see you guys react to Gangs of New York. Probably one of my favourite films of all time including one of my favourite performances from Daniel Day Lewis and I think it’s 7.5IMdB score is criminal…
Also I think the actors you were forgetting were Oliver Reed and Richard Harris who both brought incredible talent to this movie.
@24:10, when the music soars and Maximus lefts his sword while on horse back I always think “Leader of men”. Even as an enslaved gladiator his true self still comes out.
Oliver Reed died during the making of this film. He played the slave owner. Probably his greatest part in my opinion
Oh…dang that stinks
@@whitenoisereacts just read up on it. He died on a break from filming, still had a couple of scenes to film so they used a stand in and used some camera trickery. The scene where he is talking to Maximus through the bars. They did a great job of it tbh couldnt have been an easy process as 20 years ago they didnt have the equipment they have now.
That’s crazy. Totally didn’t know it wasn’t him
His greatest role will always be as Bill Sikes in Oliver!
@@ahullabaloo Oliver was an extremely heavy drinker, but he promised the director that wouldn't drink while on set, that he'd stay sober during filming. He managed, but he finally gave in when some British tourists (or sailors?) met Oliver and asked if he wanted to have a drinking contest at a local bar, to which Oliver agreed and he drank and drank an insane amount of alcohol and managed to win the contest, but sadly all of that alcohol gave him a heart attack.
I had to study this movie in school.
That aside, guys you confuse the heck out of me! Nobu and James wearing summer shirts, Nick wearing a winter shirt. James with a summer shirt is also wearing a beanie. I swear you're all actually in different hemispheres somehow, when you watch movies, that would explain the mixed seasonal clothing. If not, help me out here 😂🤔
Good performance by Russell, C. . The authenticity of the city is digitally done which takes away the realism. ROMANS WERE BRUTAL. THATS HOW THEY WERE SUCCESSFUL CONCERNING . HISTORY HASN'T CHANGED THAT MUCH UNFORTUNATELY, AND, SADLY.
48:19 That's really not how that works, it isn't always hereditary and when it is it's not the whole family that will have that.
Fun fact...the Emperor actually did fight in the arena as a gladiator but he was killed in his bathtub , strangled....
something I heard about the gentleman with facial scars was that they are real. he was attacked coming out of a bar (I think) and had a knife put inside his mouth.
The 3 main characters are all in DC movies...Joker...Amazon Queen...and jorEl supermans dad
Dogs have been used in war since humans first tamed them. We use them still
