master and commander really is in a class of its own

[@christophed8429]

He was great in LA confidential too. Those were his peak years. Gladiator is an ALL TIME classic and sits there with the other greatest films ever.

[@johnconway9882]

Quite a peak when you consider how ridiculous this current role makes him look.

[@alp852]

Gladiator is the best movie ever- Love the variety that Rich Eisen brings to his show.

[@noaamouyal1395]

I love how he has so many good movies that he mentions like six of them, but then you bring up another one and he's like, "Oh yeah, that too!" He has about 10 solid movies that resonate with people. Outstanding.

[@williamcochell9889]

Absolutely loved Cinderella Man! And of course, beautiful mind incredible movie

[@jargin2]

Russell is a great lad

[@ronmayer-opificius9299]

Master & Commander, his best movie for sure.

[@theshow1269]

Gladiator is my favorite movie of all time…. Russell has made so many great movies.

[@meatusshaft300]

Happy 59th Birthday Russ! Gladiator will forever be one of the all-time great warrior movies! 🔥

A lot of great films mentioned here. Wish he had won the Oscar for The Insider. I am excited to see Pope’s Exorcist.

[@SullySeven]

Awesome job Rich. Love when you take these unsuspecting guests down memory lane.

[@beckyleonardis6331]

I just got done rewatching The Nice Guys! I laughed so hard when Russell broke Ryan's arm and he screamed! There's a few of his movies that I want to rewatch such as Cinderella Man, A Beautiful Mind and Master and Commander!

[@MPB059]

Sid 6.7 is one of my favorite characters that Russell Crowe played including bud white in LA Confidential!

[@quentinhood5827]

That's awesome RUSSELL CROW AT A SNOOP DOGG CONCERT!!

Gladiator Top 5 movie of all time!

Love his story telling! However, as a huge Irish fan, damn you Russell lol

[@OCRay1]

Which year was that game? They may have said it butI didn’t catch it

[@mdnole5695]

@@OCRay1 think it was 2007, Russell said he met Carr in 06 and Carrs last year at UM was 07, they played ND at home won 38-0😳

Master and Commander for me.

[@erickjohnston7235]

The insider is another great film.

[@brianlaughlin8974]

Great Michigan football story.

[@lat1502]

For me, "3:10 to Yuma" could have been one of the best western movies ever made. What I didn't like about it, was the ending. It was very realistic all the way through the movie, until the shootout scene at the end. At that point, It seemed to turn into an 'action' movie. Way too much over the top for me.

[@quentinhood5827]

The Gladiator!!

[@JK-br1mu]

Tracked down the season Russell Crowe is talking about--------2007. Michigan lost to App State, then lost to Oregon, then beat Notre Dame 38-0. Finished 9-4.

[@iancocks9408]

A legend and owner of the Rabbitohs. Love rugby league and he is very popular in aust and a good actor too.

[@brontosa5351]

How many interviews did he give over the course of these few days? I'm seeing a lot, same background, same him in all interviews.

The craziest part about exorcism's is that they're real. Became a more convicted Catholic after reading about it and it listening to exorcists of the Church. Great to see Crowe intrigued about the role and Father Amorth!

I always liked his acting but thought he was probably an AH off screen. Jeez, he is really down to earth and Rich brought some good comments from him excellent interview and guest.

[@pattiefredo3591]

Russell u have never been naive 😂

[@Billyoutz]

Dear Mr. Eisen and Mr. Crowe, surely you understand there are many things we are not told and if if told the majoity would not believe OR understand so lets leave it at that .....

[@paulmcfadden9498]

If you are up to it, because it is pretty gross, his film, "Romper Stomper, about a gang of racist skinheads is excellent.

[@johnconway9882]

He'll probably be nominated for a Razzie for this role. What a shame that he's been reduced to this.

[@magdamarko4394]

Beruhmte Schauschpieler - alles kannst du machen mit Geld Spektakular,vieke sprache und Werbung in Medien...- das geht zusammen???

[@petepage2076]

That's super kool that he did that in the locker room... except there's one problem... Michigan has no honor. Never has, never will. They are not honorable.
