I saw something about a trailer arriving on the 9th? Or was it the 8th... something like that.

Omg, hyped...



Watched about half. Don't think I'm even going to finish it.

Looks like a fun blast and spectacle, but the story doesn't seem all that great, even though it seems like a murder-revenge plot like the first.

Gladiator is still one of my favorite films and I can rewatch it most any time.

Rap... Are you ****ing kidding? The music choice completely killed the trailer.

Beyond that, looked incredibly mediocre. A lesser repeat of the original.

Alright, I confess I finished the trailer.

The rap music was a little weird, but whatever, it's just a trailer. As long as it doesn't go Django Unchained with the rap music in the film I don't care.

I'm still hyped. Looks great. That last decapitation shot, hell yeah.. f#ck.

I’ll give it a chance because the first one is legendary, however I don’t buy Pedro Pascal as a Roman general, in the slightest.

You dumb b!tches have forgotten the joy of going to the movies.

It shows gladiators battling a rhinoceros and falling into water and getting eaten by sharks. I mean, f#ck yes!

Plus it looks like it's going to have some interesting little political intrigue, so goddamn, stop being so negative.

24 years later Ridley has finally delivered on a sequel.

I've heard that one was crap

not all long awaited sequels end up being good.

^^^My point exactly.
I mean, there was nothing about the original that screamed ‘sequel’ to me, much less one 24 years removed.

It was a great one and done lightning in a bottle movie, and there’s nothing wrong w. that.

If, at 86 years old, Ridley Scott feels he needs even more money to live out his golden (platinum?) years in comfort and is good w. going for a cash grab, more power to him though.

I don't think calling it a cash grab is necessarily fair, I mean, we'll see, certainly the studio wants a cash grab. But I think Ridley had been chasing the greatness of Gladiator ever since to greater and lesser success. He's certainly never matched it. I think he probably legitimately wants to make a great follow up. Probably why they didn't rush into it.

To me there is something a little more magical and fascinating about ancient Rome than his other historical epics, so I'm always excited about a new big budget film set then.

As long as he keeps the story concise and not a 3 hour slog like the current trend, it looks like it'll be pretty good.

I'm with you on the ancient Roman setting for epic films. Just ideal.

See, I'm pretty sure no one is asking for the 4-hour version of Napoleon...

Honestly, I wouldn't have minded about 30 mins more of war scenes in Napoleon. I get that being an obsessed cuckold was a huge part of his life, but so was war.
