By the way, the dialouge continues like this:
C- "Now tell me, did your friend smiled in his own death?"
M- "You must now. He was your father."
C- "You loved my father, I know. But so did I! That makes us brothers doesn't it? Now smile for me now brother!" (now he plunshes a knife in M's back)
C- (now he is talking to Quintus) "Stretch on his armour. Consoul the wound!"

M=Maximus
C=Commodus

Yeah, loved it too. Remember when that Gladiator was swinging his flail and you could actually hear it whuffing round? I loved that part.

Mmh, nice movie but not that good.
It gets a bit boring after a while and the story is pretty predictable.

Actually it was Maximus Decimus Brutius, not Meridius. It was a good movie, but there were some inaccuracies which really irriate me being an ancient history student. Like his name, it should be Decimus Brutius Maximus, because Maximus is his cognomen (nickname), which comes after his first and family names. Plus the fact that there were woman and men all in the stands at the Colosseum together, when they should have been segregated. But that's just me nitpicking

Btw Lord Exxon, I noticed when quoting you that your sig isn't acutally a sig, but something you type into all your posts. You can go to your profile and make your sig properly so you don't have to type it in every time

Yeah, I know I can type it in in the profile, but then I cant get the anim there!
Besides, his name IS Maximus Decimus MERIDIUS!
And they putted up women and men together in the arena on real! No one can beat me on this field, I am studying history.

Yes you can, just right click on the picture and click on properties. Then copy the URL and put it into your sig like this: [IMG] http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...o_ani_fire.gif [/IMG} but delete the spaces after the [IMG] and before the [/IMG]

Okay, his name might be Meridius, I've only seen it once. But they do separate men and women, women have to sit up the very top of the stands while men sit further down, I'm sure I can beat you, I'm studying ancient history too

Ok, you might be right about the men and women thing.
Thanks for the profile thing, but Saz finished my sig so I am using that.

I'll just be the grit in your oyster then. Apart from the action/CGI stuff, I thought Gladiator was overrated.

Oh, and just why does Russel Crowe's standard expression remind me of someone just starting to suffer from the effects of chronic constipation? (as opposed to Steven Segal who needs Ex-lax or a large amount of dietary fibre NOW!!!)
