Also, Caeser didn’t want Maximus to become emperor and rule after him, something most people seem to get confused. He wanted to pass the powers onto Maximus, so that Maximus could return Rome to a republic like it was before the rule of the Caesar ie the Roman Empire. Marcus wanted to break that tradition of dictatorship with himself and see tome returned to the people

[@IaloneAmTHEChoppedONE]

Commodus was right to kill that old senile IMO. And all he has to do was to kill Maximus, not fight him or kill his family. Just kill Maximus and all his close "friends" and everything is ok. He wasn't evil enough.

[@toastysock]

How do people not see that? they literally state that.

[@Aforgamon]

Meanwhile, in real life - While Marcus Aurelius was a real emperor, and did have a son named Commodus that succeeded him, there was no such effort to restore Rome to being a republic. It's the most egregious ahistorical thing about this film. Rome did not become more democratic - it got LESS democratic and more autocratic as time went on.

Welcome to the movie that shot Russell Crowe into iconic A list status with its famous lines that have become part of movie history. This made Hollywood tons at the box office and well, considering all the movies this year so far that have been failures - this era of movies when there were great movies like this being made seems like an eternity away now. Gladiator and Russell Crowe as its lead was something that will always be in the all time greats list.

[@tomaskennedy]

24:13 That stuff they used in Saving Private Ryan was to stop the bleeding. The stuff the guy puts in Maximus' wound is to get rid of infected flesh and help the wound heal.

Also you guys nailed it on that first sword scene of commodus, which most miss. Those are his boys, meant to make him look good. Like the mitt holder for a boxer who’s doing more work than the boxer and just making him look good

[@IaloneAmTHEChoppedONE]

No it's more like they are training the son of the emperor and they aren't trying to kill him or to show him that they are better fighters than him. You can't really compare mitt holder or even sparring to sword fighting lol it can literally kill you if you aren't paying attention enough or if your skills are trash. Commodus was actually very good but no experience in the battlefield and Maximus was a monster.

[@chaost4544]

It was just the equivalent of a sparing partner and being trained to go through the taught forms of sword fighting at the time.

[@coreyrees840]

@@IaloneAmTHEChoppedONE well since it’s training obviously they aren’t going to try and kill him, what I’m saying is they were going light, not just because it’s training but because we gotta make this little shit look good. Just the like the mitt holder who does more than the boxer which you see time to time. Obviously trialing with a sword is more dangerous inherently lol

[@IaloneAmTHEChoppedONE]

@@coreyrees840 Maybe you should watch that scene again, they were definitely NOT "going light". The mitt holder example is kinda retarded and it's not to make the boxer look good even if it does. They want to replicate the mechanics of a punch and also work combinations that's what give you the impression that they "do more than the boxer".

As far as I know, the only ending that was rewritten was that of Proximo the gladiator trainer. Oliver Reed - the actor that played Proximo - died before filming wrapped. The director didn’t want to reshoot everything with a new actor, so they redid Proximo’s plot ending with a body double and some CGI. Rome - the show didn’t last long on HBO, but there are a handful of people in that show that ended up on Game of Thrones.

[@christianedwards6364]

The movie isn't historically accurate but a classic. A big inspiration for maximus is Cincinatus. He was given the powers of dictator (the meaning was different back then but he basically had sole rule of the republic) and then once the threat was over he gave his powers back he went back to being a simple farmer. That's why we have Cincinnati as a city today. Also the actor who plays Geoffrey in game of thrones used commodus as a big inspiration for his character

[@spoonzor1]

ye i look forward to the new Napoleon movie.. But at the same time im kinda scared.

FWIW ..... The Spanish term "Mano y Mano" was used incorrectly by the gentleman in the middle. "Mano y Mano" means "Hand and Hand." The correct term to use, to describe what was going down at the moment, is "Mano a Mano," which means "Hand to Hand" in English. So, when people are fighting each other individually at close range, you would say that they are fighting "Mano a Mano."

Hi! I would highly say REWATCH AEGON TARGARYEN’s crowning scene in episode 9 of House of the Dragon. See if you see the similarities with Gladiator and Joaquin’s performance. Tom, who plays Aegon has really brought a lot of Commodus in Aegon. Brilliant film, one best epics out of Hollywood. One of my favs of all time.

[@Dnichols619]

This isn't based on a true story. But the bad guy, Commodus was a real emperor (he's why toilets are sometimes called Commodes.) He was one of those fucked up dictators who named everything after himself. However, he WAS actually a pretty bad ass fighter and did regularly compete in gladiator games that he put on himself when he was emperor. He got couped, I think by an alliance of senators and the Praetorian guard (the purple cloaked soldier guys in the movie who tried to execute Maximus, the "best" Roman legion who guarded the capital; although, at this point they were sort of a bunch of decadent show offs, more politicians than soldiers.) I could be wrong about that last part though.

[@MrYellingdingo]

Combat back then was much much worse than it is today. Back then everything was close and personal. Still happens today but not to the same degree as thousands of men colliding with each other in bloody explosion. Having to look into someone's eyes and take their life is much much harder than taking it from 100 meters. Consider the knife fight scene in SPR. Imagine that on a scale of thousands of men fighting in close proximity.
