Watched Ridley Scott's "Robin Hood" yesterday and was a little frustrated by how long and exasperating it was, that I just had to ease my troubles by going back to watch Gladiator.

Let's us discuss this incredible movie that single-handedly revived the entire "Sword and Sandal" genre. "Troy", "Kingdom of Heaven", "Alexander" and many more owe a bit of thanks to this movie. :D

I love this movie! I also have a big crush on Russell Crowe! :kaoclove:

I think I used to have the soundtrack, even. It's really good.

Joaquin can't flow like the River. Oho, aren't I clever. I guess what I'm trying to say is that Gladiator is okay, but Stand by Me is much better. =D

And... on what basis are you comparing those two movies, again?

I haven't seen it in years, but I remember thinking it was a good movie back when I saw it. But as said, that's years ago.. I have no idea what I'd think of it if I saw it today.

300 isn't listed on as part of the Sword and Sandal genre?

also, I hated Gladiator.

Definitely one of my favourite movies of all time.
Good story, good acting, well cast, exciting action, good soundtrack.

Entertainment value, and general awesomeness.

300 is okay - I watched it because I'm a fan of Miller and wished to support. That said, it is fun to re-watch, like Gladiator

For a Russell Crowe misadventure it is very good! And now I hear RH is not good? You make me sadface.

RH was long, long, long, and long. Also, he was clearly feeling a bit too old for the role. :D

That being said, how could anyone like "300" and not "Gladiator"? Craziness.
