Instantly discarded.

I liked it when I was a tweenager though. And I was crushing on the bride who gets raped by the English lord.

Primae noctis didn't exist in England since you care so much about historical accuracy.

It didn't exist anywhere but now because it happened in a fictional Hollywood movie, everyone thinks it's true.

They also turn badass hero of Scotland Robert the Bruce in to a sniveling cowardly bitch.

Weird anti-english film. Also how many movies is there set in the Middle Ages with a catholic hero who unrepentantly kills a bunch of people and has an adultery subplot? I can think of Kingdom of Heaven

nothing weird about that, actually

The English came across incredibly homosexual in this movie.

It's a great movie, historically inaccurate but still good.

This is Scotland s new history.

During the Wallace uprising it was just a bunch of half naked dudes tho.

Realistic combat looks retarded on tv

Legit complaint

The English are gay cucks lmao

Might be the best movie of the 90s. Certainly in the top 10.
>>
>>219894422

I don't know how he was able to both star in and direct such an epic project. Mel is one of the best functioning alcoholics.
>>
>>219894422
Every time some doomertard tells me the 90s were heckin woke, I think of this and how it had an all-white cast with no trouble

Does he also get his dick and balls cut off and burned in front of him as was the norm during hanging drawing and quartering?

You don't actually see anything thobeit

>>219900203
I think originally you were supposed to but it was considered too brutal so they had Mel edit it out.
>>
>>219897833
>Realistic combat looks retarded on tv
No it doesn't.
It's no accident that the best scene of 300 is the bit where they do proper shield wall combat. Unfortunately it only lasts like 15 seconds.
>>
If William Wallace ever yelled "FREEDOM!!!" it was because he wanted the freedom to oppress the scottish peasantry in traditional Scottish ways rather than those new-fangled English ones which treated serfs as being halfway to people (with rights).

The French princess was only 12? at the time IRL so the film makes him out to be a PDF too.

No bridge at the battle named after one.

No kilts before the English invented them as an early form of clan ID.

Prima Noctis (along with chastity belts) was an invention by those kinky repressed Victorians.
>>
>>219894422
Fucking masterpiece by anti jew Warrior Mel Gibson.

>No kilts before the English invented them as an early form of clan ID.
kilts were definitively invented by the Scots several centuries after the events in this movie but it was definitively the Victorians, including English, which the garment such a meme with made-up clan tartan colors

>the trouble with Scotland is that it is full of the Scots !!!
>>
>>219894422
yea i liked it
>>
>>219900357
Yeah I heard that too.
Wouldn't it be cool if there was some lost footage out there?
I remember as a kid watching this and my dad explained the whole disemboweling thing. He must've done a good job, because for years I had the memory of seeing gore effects in the movie.
When I rewatched recently, I was rightly confused that we didn't see anything, so I did a bunch of research thinking maybe there were different versions of the film. But nope, it only existed in my mind.
>>
>>219894422
I like it too.
Excellent score. Great battle scenes.
>>219894660
>>219894680
Nothing wrong with a good bit of pro-freedom messaging.
But it is strange because William Wallace doesn't mention one word about freedom until the Battle of Stirling, and then he launches into a passionate speech about freedom.
If you just watched this movie cold without any prior knowledge, you'd probably be scratching your head at his sudden change of character.

It's unfortunate that more don't accept it as the true historical masterpiece that it is. Scots should be forever thankful to Mr. Gibson and Hollywood. Prior to Braveheart, the only thing most people outside of Scotland could say about their country was that it rained a lot and they talk funny. Now, they're associated with a blue faced mad lad.

lel
I was trying to think of some joke about him playing Crusader Kings or something but this better

Tangentially related observation that's irrelevant to the post...
Seeing an Asian or African with a Scottish accent is like seeing a European speaking Chinese. It's unnatural.
