It was probably more work to make a script that works as a sequel to Gladiator than it would have been to make an original movie based in Rome. But then they don't get the name recognition and all the free money that comes with it.
So posted right at the same time as this was another trailer for a new movie.
This has comments, the other doesn't.
Guess what gets people's attention? Shit they can recognize and have some idea what it is and will be.
I see this time and again.
I'm not even disagreeing with you, just please help comment on the others and help them get noticed.
Non sequels are being made.
Let's franchise this thing!
- Gladiator: Kyoto
- Gladiator
- Glad 5
- Gladiator 6
- Iator 7
- The Gate of the Gladiator
- Commodus and Cassius
- G9
- Glad X
Sadiatior: The prequel
Don't forget Gladiator vs. Godzilla.
Actually that one would slap.
Wow. Yeah. Joking aside, I would absolutely watch "Gladiator vs Godzilla".
Special Cameo by Vin Diesel who reminds Pedroβs character that itβs all about family.
This will be terrible. The story was told; go make your own content instead of shitting on other peopleβs completed stories.
... it's the same people making this one. They're shitting on their own story.
David Franzoni vs David Scarpa β¦. So not the same people at all.
And Ridley Scott and Douglas Wick, so yes some of the same people.
No, they don't have the same screenwriter, but that's not the only person responsible for the story.
Pedro Pascal?
I recommend the indy sci fi flic Prospect with Pedro as the lead.
Pedro is the only reason i will watch this movie when it comes out in digital format π
It will be hot garbage
Damn, Pascal and Washington together would be great... in a different movie.
STAHP
Can we stop with the three-minute trailers? Alright, I'm in, but I stopped after a minute and a half.
Denzel Washington? Nah Iβm good
