what is Ridley Scott going to ruin next?
>>216492920Wasn't the emporer a nigger in the second one? Idk I never planned on watching it.
paul mecal is just ugly. doesn't look heroic also.with russell crowe, you're automatically drawn to his presence.
>>216492920Ridley Scott can easily be ignored. His good movies still exist. At least he hasn't done the George Lucas thing and revised his existing works with CGI and burning the originals in a heap.
>>216492920The first one was shit even if you aren't a history autist.
>>216493494It's stupid but it's carried by many excellent classic British actors
>>216493494>>216493520my brother went to West Point and i used to hang out with his friends, they all worshipped this movie
>>216492920>Were you there, Russell?
>>216492920He should make Black Hawk Down 2
>>216492920So after playing a nazi Russel Crowe became an incel? Never fly to close to the sun folks...
>>216492961Nah he's just some rich guy who somehow used the emperors as puppets. Its as retarded as it sounds.
>>216492920Ridley Scott hasnt made a good movie since Kingdom of Heaven. His endless seething about God and Napoleon has also worn thin. He just needs to stop
What we do in life echoes in eternity. It's a great fuckin film. Strength and honor.
If they had expanded on the final battle both the preparations of it and the action, with probably only like a minute and a half of footage, at least that part wouldve been good. But they even underdelivered on what shouldve been the easier part of the movie to get right.
>>216493494I'm a big Romaboo, but I still like it thematically.
>>216493494Thank you, i like Rusell Crowe but the plot of gladiator is completely fucking retarded.I can't understand how history autists even like that movie when it misrepresents everything about that period.
>>216493934most of us saw it long before we actually started reading Roman history. it's also well made and acted regardless of who it's about.
>the first one so specialtake away its soundtrack and it's a 5/10 film. boring revenge story with literal unwatchable fight scenes because there's a cut every millisecond
>>216493934To me, the set piece forest battle early in the film promised an expansive ancient warfare spectacle. Instead, we get a movie constrained to a single stadium and a soap-opera tier plot. Sure there are great fight scenes but it was a waste of opportunity. Ridley could have made an epic Roman sword and sandals movie to rival LotR.
>>216493494Explain yourself. Now.
>>216492920He’s not wrong.
>>216493781kingdom of heaven is bad. Hollywood can't make historical movies because everything should be politically incorrect
>>216492920Authors are always under fire... After a few movies they are always criticized over either having becoming derivative because they always do the same thing or making stuff that´s too different from one another, thus having no clear style, identity or personality. There is simply no way to win. As i understand it Ridley is one of those people that can´t stop and will literally die if he doesn´t keep making movies but he is past his prime and it is pretty sad to see the degradation of old age claim him.
>>216494066>, the set piece forest battle early in the film promised an expansive ancient warfare spectacle. Instead, we get a movie constrained to a single stadiumthe film is called Gladiator, you fucking idiot
>>216493934Its fun. Yes people who like history also like fun and spectacle......much like the people of ancient Rome.
As soon as the CGI monkeys showed up that was the final straw. Never finished watching the film
>>216493494It was fine but I hated how the action scenes were edited, you couldn't see shit, it was almost as bad as that webm from Taken 2 or 3.
>>216493494David Chase probably thought so too by making a guy like picrel who others found insufferable to be a superfan of it
