[@Eoin1]

In reality, many gladiators survived defeat if they were judged to have fought well and earned the favour of the crowd. This happened much more often than the gladiator being killed. They would simply raise their forefinger to ask for mercy. Crying or begging probably wouldn't have helped his cause. Edit : I'm getting a lot of responses saying that gladiators were rarely killed because they were valuable. That's true. It doesn't invalidate my point however as their value was linked to their success\popularity. My initial response was strictly in relation to how gladiators faced defeat and the possibility of death

Commodus was THE character that made me take notice of the whole "acting" thing when I was a kid and didn't know much about anything. I had seen villains in movies by that time of course, but none quite like this one. Joaquin's Commodus is probably my favourite performance I've ever seen.

I recommend to anyone interested in this to learn more about gladiatorial combat. I see lots of people saying this, but just as many denying for some reason. Most fights were not to the death and if they were it was usually pre-planned and ticket prices were increased. Makes sense when you think how some gladiators had multiple losses on their record. Most trained and lived together as well, so killing each other wasn't on the top of the list. If they were to get injured though, which was likely, they would get the best medical care Rome had to offer. Slaves, and criminals actually had the right to buy their freedom back as well, with most who did returning back to the arena.

Gladiatorial fights were waaay closer to the WWE than you might think, there were storylines and surprises. Most fights were just done until someone was on the ground and gladiators were trained to aim for non lethal blows, training a gladiator was expensive after all, even the slave ones. The crowd would almost always chant micio (Mercy!). In the golden days of the empire gladiatorial fights were a wwe show sandwitched between some convoluted hunting shows inside the arena of exotic animals, and military excersices. The actual fights to the death: the executions of criminals, christians, etc, were done relatively quietly during break time, which was just throwing them unarmed against beasts or well equipped executioners. Watching an underfed prisoner get mauled by a tiger gets old fast so they weren't as popular.

No, that is a bullshit lie a historian made up. It was typical for them to die when the crowd said they died. Not when the Sponsor could not afford to pay for the games in the first place. A historian looked up prices, and noticed that you paid moree if the gladiator died versus if they lived through the match. This makes sense because the gladiator who is dead needs replaced. But the idea that they could not afford gladiators is wrong. In fact, the Twelve Caesars specifically mentions how Julius Caesar recycled gladiators once the crowd lost favor with them and they would be executed by their opponents. This is because the crowd, not the sponsor who hosted the game like the Emperor, usually were deciding who lived and died. Countless gladiators died, and other historians have even proven this with records, not Revisionist theories that get spouted to discredit Hollywood, and any History with Glory or Bloodshed involved, a rationalist Historians worst enemy.

I love how Maximus recognized the helmet's worthlessness as a defensive tool, and immediately started striking the "Mask" part of it with his shield at every opportunity. It was designed to be pulled over the face and lacks any protection for the jaw, and everything directly behind the mask. It was like ringing a bell. The other gladiator's face is completely deleted by the time the fight is over from having that stupid mask on. It's details like this, that only a seasoned soldier would look for that makes Maximus so dangerous and makes the movie so great. A lesser fight would have had Maximus use some stupid bullshit like making him run into a wall to defeat him.

Regarding the comments on Tigris spitting blood after taking the foot stab..Maximus landed several blows to his helmet (the first being with shield) that almost peeled back the face of Tigris helmet. The helmet was more ornamental, basically having a metal box around the head. Maximus ,being the strategist that he is, knew this and continued to focus on that particular area. Tigris eventually gave in to serious concussion and head trauma. EDIT: Blood probably came from having teeth knocked out.

[@hawk66100]

He did bash him in the face with the shield possibly going a bit under the mask. It is shown that Titus has a linear cut on his face implying that a sharpish edge hit there.

[@workingthejab]

Fair enough but Maximus was lying on the flat of his back with a full grown dead tiger laying on him. A one armed, vertical swing with no wind up shouldn't have done anything to him, ornamental helmet or not. So, unless Ant man went back into time and gave Maximus Captain America's shield, the blow shouldn't have exploded his head like a watermelon. It wasn't a morning star he got him with and he wasn't fighting glass Joe either. Earlier strikes mentioned didn't appear to make him concussed and off balance during the rest of the fight. Also, the blood probably would of shown below his helmet sooner if so. I love this flick as much as rest but let's be real, the plot armor turned invincible for certain parts of that fight. How about the tiger not getting it's teeth into Maximus' exposed neck immediately or even knocking him down? That is how they hunt. Just the force from that blindsided attack would flatten practically everyone. Not to mention the shield shrug to get the tiger off of him like he was swatting away a fly, even though it was twice his size, speed, and 5x strength (on his back). Anywho. I am done.

@@pokemonitishere202 Quote: "Almost 90% of the time tiger used to win in those Colosseum fights." Typical tiger fanboy lie. Tigers are afraid of lions. Every time a lion and a tiger fight, the tiger usually runs away like the coward that it is. The Romans were not cowards, they stood for bravery, strength and confidence.

*This is what I would picture when me and my brother fought in the living room with my mom's cats running around.*

Lol you're funny!

[@waffelo4681]

Terrific cats u got there

[@veteranpg3d156]

So you killed both of them

[@enderwiggin9155]

I love replaying the tiger death in slow motion to see behind the curtains of movie magic. It's hilarious watching how much that big fat kitty wants da treats, lmao. every time it zooms out from the "definitely stabbing" the tiger's face is shoved in his hand nomming whatever's there. xD and then it's just playing in the dirt, so cute. That being said, re watching it in context of the whole movie I'm always still involved in the fight. Great editing and great acting.

[@remu5376]

Oh you right, the tiger lick maximus hand for treats lol

[@caigitaisao275]

man I love this detail u spotted on, it looks hilarious af

[@thedoubleboiler6971]

I noticed that it was playing too, but didn't see the treat feeding. Good eye. 👌

[@KilluhCrocz]

Actually, i think it was a dummy tiger that they rigged up for the scene. They carried it around on a little trolley I believe. Could be wrong, but google could tell you.

[@enderwiggin9155]

@@KilluhCrocz half is dummy for stabbing, but when it zooms out its definitely a real tiger. Slow down when it "pounces" on him and takes him to the ground, its definitely going for a treat in his hand and following the hand all the way to the ground. It may even be a stunt double animal trainer.

This would be PPV for $49.99 if it was on today.

[@EtHaN198718]

and since i was a boy, once marvelled by the sight of this scene, i've been waiting for something that even matches the epicity of it

Looking Glass knight really was in rush that morning, to a point where he forgot his mirror shield and half his armor.

4:17 If only Maximus knew about the middle finger.

[@monkeybandit222]

You mean the wind up toy? :)

[@azhagurajaallinall126]

Actually Romans do knew about the middle finger as a worst curse

[@iancruz6617]

Technically thumbdow not suppose to be what it isn

[@aronforis]

Haha I thought the same thing

[@jakekarr9733]

I thought the middle finger was a throw back to the “ archer’s finger “ that would be severed if you got captured. This is one a fifth grader ought to know.

This was the golden age of cinema. They just don't make them like they used to man.
