When Crowe played Maximus. He embodied the perfect role and character. The film was perfect. The story was amazing. Sometimes you get a film so brilliant you should not touch it again. You dont need to as to equal or surpassed is impossible. The Original Gladiator is one such film.
Why use the quotes from the first movie? This sequel already feels like unnecessary nostalgia bait with a very similar plotline to the original, why highlight this even more by reusing the same dialogue.
I can’t believe how bad this looks. From the performances to the cgi to the lighting. Such a disgrace to the original which was meaningful, thoughtful, and beautiful.
It dosnt look bad its just dosnt feel like Gladiator needs a sequel. Its perfectly fine story by its own that have start and ending. I wish they make more original movies instead of whatever this is.
I guess the new generation of writers have no original thoughts. They're so used to being told what to say and think that they've forgotten how to think for themselves.
How is that comparable to him playing a Berber? Macrinus was, according to the historical record, a Berber. They were Africans. A low-information viewer might be fooled by the surviving busts of Meperor Macrinus, because low-information viewers are likely unaware that Ancient Roman tradition dictates the appearance of the subject be altered to suit ideals rather than adhere to strict physical accuracy. Which would be like seeing a painting of Jesus from China and assuming that, despite everything the Bible says, Jesus must be a Han. Do you think Jesus is Chinese, Andy?
@@Shampyon he’s really not ready for this kind of discussion, he just wanted to spout some stupidity, hell they’re still lying to themselves about Hannibal.
If you haven’t but wish to envelope yourself in a beautiful story PLAY RYSE SON OF ROME!!! It’s an XBOX exclusive when Xbox still had dignity its from 2013 BUT IT HOLDS UP GORGEOUSLY STILL TO THIS DAY!!!
why so much CGI it takes away the real feel from most of the scenes ... i would rather see multiple horse riders with swords and bows than cgi crocodiles lions and rhinos... seriously cut of the BS and make it more realistic so atleast some of it is believable
The main actor doesn't have charisma like Russel has. The CGI doesn't look very good, the rehashed quotes from the first movies in this one is a little off putting. What else?
I had no clue who Russell Crowe was when I saw Gladiator,if you don't know anything about the main actor Paul Mescal he won a Laurence Olivier Award for his portrayal of Stanley Kowalski in a 2022 revival of the play A Streetcar Named Desire. He also received nominations for the Academy Award for Best Actor and the BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role.
I know I’m suppose to have suspension of belief, but the boat battle in the flooded arena had sharks in the water. How the Hell did Ancient Romans transport sharks and fill the arena with salt water?
Everybody making jokes about Denzel. How about we talk about how many movies Denzel did with Ridley's late brother Tony Scott? Perhaps this isn't the movie... but the collaboration is cathartic.
Personally, I dont hate it, just have strange feelings that it is a sequel or so. To me, Gladiator was about one character, Maximus and that's all and here it looks like Gladiator is something wider, not only Maximus but about any gladiator, and thus we can expect an infinity amount of movies about different gladiators that isn't something bad, in my opinion. Just this switch from the Gladiator to the gladiators gives strange feelings.
They are forcing themselves to hate it. It's ridiculous, they nitpicked on the music of the last trailer and now it's DEI this, parody that, Denzel this. Forgetting this all came to be from the genius of Ridley Scott who is also the director again. This is his baby and he saw it fit to bring it to life so at least watch it before acting like little kids. It's not as if anyone of you were pining for the first one either.
This is beyond idiotic. Denzel doesn't even fake a Roman accent. He sounds like some guy from Philly got teleported to ancient Rome. Seriously, what in the absolute hell is this nonsense ?
It feels like a bad sign when you see these big epic battle scenes in a movie trailer now, it's like saying, we spent a lot of money to not need a good plot or script. We will see in this case, but it feels like the story telling in modern movies is just forgotten entirely. The first gladiator opened with a big battle sequence, but it was short and not the focal point of the movie. These studios could probably save a lot of money on the budgets and produce more movies that people really want to watch if they could just return to the basics of story telling and the human aspect imo. Oh well, hopefully it is still good in the end.
After watching this Trailer, Gladiator is one of those films that never needed a sequel or become a franchise😒. This trailer was better than the 1st one(that trailers song smh)🙄
There’s a hell Of a lot negative comments, has this film been released early and everyone has seen it? ..I thought the trailer looked alright to be fair?..now call me old fashioned..but I’m actually going to wait until the movie comes out, but a cinema ticket go and watch it and make up my own mind !✌️
Now this makes me appreciate Russell Crowe even more!
Amen
When Crowe played Maximus.
He embodied the perfect role and character. The film was perfect. The story was amazing. Sometimes you get a film so brilliant you should not touch it again. You dont need to as to equal or surpassed is impossible. The Original Gladiator is one such film.
Agreed. This trailer was way better than the first trailer though. But the throwback lines are so cringey
This looks like a poor replica even using similar lines from first one.
Well calling the first film “brilliant” is a bit of a stretch.
@@Dweller415 well it is one of those films that will echo an eternity. whether one likes it or not.
Can’t wait for Denzel to yell “HERCULES AIN’T GOT SHIT ON ME!!!!”
LMFAOO!!! 💀 🤣
😂😂😂😂
😂😂
Can't wait to see Denzel say to hercules "My nigga HA HA HA HAAA
Can’t wait for Denzel to throw on some shades and say “Myyyyyyy Gladiator”
😂
Hahaha todays winner of the internet is 👏🏼
Silly comment 😂
"my man*
Wish I could like more than once😂
I'm starting to think Pedro's mustache has it's own booking agent.
Pedro Pascal as Gomez Addams
Why are they using the original quotes from the first film. It looks like a terrible rehash
Give it a chance.
its gladiator time
I agree
It was an epic line. Scott couldn't resist using it. Again. 😂
I'l ll be back and I wil lhave my vengance in this life or the next and also hasta lavista baby
Loved the part where Denzel yells "you shot me in the ass with that arrow. YOU SHOT ME IN THE ASS WITH THAT ARROW!"
Looks like a parody of the first one.
@@Roaming8667 Because the original didn't have black people in it.
@@Roaming8667That world exists only in your head. Sometimes sh*t is just sh*t.
@@MrSoopah it’s literally every where kid lol
@@zak5102 That’s just your opinion
@@MrSoopah you must live in a hole lol.
This movie makes a mockery off gladiator.
This the The Force Awakens of the Gladiator universe.
A reboot in all but name for the next generation.
Can't wait for Denzel to yell :" You get your f-ing hands off meeeee!"
Bold move to do a sequal to an Oscar winning (when they sorta meant something) film as an Airplane style parody/comedy.
I think Ridley Scott might need to go get his shinebox
Can't wait for the "Everything wrong with the Gladiator 2"videos...
it will be longer than the actual film!
Why use the quotes from the first movie? This sequel already feels like unnecessary nostalgia bait with a very similar plotline to the original, why highlight this even more by reusing the same dialogue.
Why cant they just let Gladiator be great. No one wanted this.
It looks great. I wanted it.
I love the original! Seems I heard that Lucius is Maximus' son! What a reveal!
It’s called $$$
I would rather watch Maximus rise as a zombie vampire and sack Rome with an army of mimes.
At least they learned their lesson on music selection for a trailer.
yeah it's too late.
Lol, when did Americans become so whiny about such little things?
@@jbur3667”its not such little things” and it’s not just the Americans, every country where its avaiable complained about it
Agreed on the music selection. Though when you think about it, ancient Romans probably didn’t listen to classically themed orchestral music, either.
No its not @@lawrencefrost9063
Give it a rest, Hollywood - you're dying.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 same with you
@@joaquinpasion5483 Weak, try again, lil bro.
@@jeffl1484 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sorry Ridley but you’re past your best by the looks of it.
Training Day + American Gangster + Gladiator + Game of Thrones = Training American Gladiator Games
😅
My mate used to call a rash of Ashley Judd movies in the 90s
'"Kiss The High Crime Double Jeopardy Girls".
The studio should postpone this movie indefinitely.
All the new sequels and remakes of classic films do nothing but make me resent todays film culture
great, he is Maximus son...can't we have anything left to be surprised any more these days?
I can’t believe how bad this looks. From the performances to the cgi to the lighting. Such a disgrace to the original which was meaningful, thoughtful, and beautiful.
It dosnt look bad its just dosnt feel like Gladiator needs a sequel. Its perfectly fine story by its own that have start and ending. I wish they make more original movies instead of whatever this is.
Crazy. Because Ridley Scott thinks a sequel is a fine idea. And he just got started on 3.
🎶money, money, money, MONEY 🎶 is the only reason this exists
Training Day 2 looks amazing
😂😂
Should have cast Djimon Hounsou as Lanista instead, continuing Maximus’s revenge against Rome.
That would have been nice
Nothing beats the first one imo
Biggest thing already spoiled!! You can’t drop the father thing in a trailer!!!!
Is this foreshadowing America’s future now?
Guaranteed they are going to have a scene where the little figures of Maximus' family are found in the dirt...
So Pedro Pascal is supposed to be Russell Crow's kid later on in the timeline?
something tells me they are going to literally JUMP THE SHARK in this one...
The CGI animals look bad.
They're not cgi!
They are not cgi lil bro
Are you not entertained?
If The Empire Strikes Back was coming out these days, "I am your Father" would be in the fucking trailer.
Denzel: I must have powaaah
An actual cartoon drawn by Ridley Scott in a Sunday supplement could tell the entire thing in 12 frames.
Russel Crowe must be laughing right now.
I guess the new generation of writers have no original thoughts. They're so used to being told what to say and think that they've forgotten how to think for themselves.
Can't wait for Denzel's next movie where he plays Abraham Lincoln.
Bet you had no problem with Gerard Butler and his other cast mates in “Gods of Egypt” 😅

I'm scared to watch this movie, I have a feeling it will tarnish the first one.
Ridley Scott failed with his Napoleon. He's going to fail again.
Russell Crowe expresses his displeasure with the movie Goliador 2
There's only one gladiator...
Will not measure up to the original movie. No reason to make a sequel in my opinion. It's a set up for failure regardless of who you cast.
This looks like a "historical drama" on the History Channel with that level of special effects,
why so much CGI it takes away the real feel from most of the scenes ... i would rather see multiple horse riders with swords and bows than cgi crocodiles lions and rhinos... seriously cut of the BS and make it more realistic so atleast some of it is believable
Somehow, Denzel looks 20 years younger when he sports a goatee'
I got chills when the Wheatfield song from the first movie started!!
Aww did you get your little Wolfie out and start giving it a tug? Did you? Did you? Little wolfie is so easily pleased.
Training Day on ancient Rome...the Denzel swag...😀

Do historical research and you will find the truth. Idiot.
Man, he came a long way since Kick Ass.
Denzel: King Kong ain't got nothing on me.!
They chose the worst thumbnail possible for the trailer
I love the card game scene where Marcus Acacius says to Lucious, "hey homie, have you ever had your shit pushed in??!!!!"
My mother wants to see it so I'm happy to tag along with her.
Wow. This looks terrible when compared to the first one.
When is Titanic 2 coming out?
Already has. 2010 Titanic 2
Titanic 2: Sink Faster
Want this to be good. Can’t tell from the trailer but will definitely watch it.
I can. It won't.
@@lawrencefrost9063 I'm gonna bookmark this so I can come back and clown you if it is good
@@lawrencefrost9063 have you already seen it ? what was it you didn’t like about it?
I liked the first one a lot, I even bought the DVD. I really want to see this one, I just got back from Rome
I just hope the CGI isn't the undoing of the film! There was a gritty realism to Gladiator 1 that made it endearing. Best wishes Sir Scott!
There was no need for a sequel to the epic Gladiator but it looks entertaining enough to watch it
My favorite part is when the Gladiators say “IT’S GLADIATIN’ TIME” and gladiate all over the place
Everybody making jokes about Denzel. How about we talk about how many movies Denzel did with Ridley's late brother Tony Scott? Perhaps this isn't the movie... but the collaboration is cathartic.
finally, a trailer it deserves. It won't be Gladiator.. but it'll be real good!
IT'S GLADIATORIN' TIME!
I don't no why people want to hate this before it even comes out i love the first one but least give the movie a chance
I agree. For some reason, people got to hate a movie . An effin' movie. 🙄
Personally, I dont hate it, just have strange feelings that it is a sequel or so.

I think bcs she said, his father was Maximus? When in classic Gladiator they killed his wife and son....
They are forcing themselves to hate it. It's ridiculous, they nitpicked on the music of the last trailer and now it's DEI this, parody that, Denzel this.

Watching the trailer is giving the benefit of doubt. It looks awful as a solo movie let alone as a sequel to one of the best movies.
You will be my instrument.
No, I will be your Glaaadigga!
They must’ve gotten the message about the music used. This looks MUCH better. 👏🏻
FINALLY VERSION WITHOUT RAP .. and HIP HOP
movie name should have been "Son of Maximus
They should've released the aliens, make it Gladiator vs Aliens 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This made me laugh
I love Denzel and Pedro but this smell like a big flop of a movie. I hope that i am wrong.
Gladiator 2: night country
This is beyond idiotic. Denzel doesn't even fake a Roman accent. He sounds like some guy from Philly got teleported to ancient Rome. Seriously, what in the absolute hell is this nonsense ?
We have been waiting gladiators.
RYSE. Son of Rome. 🦅
Looks good but not the same without Russell Crowe!
Sometimes the new generation needs another version of the same story
much more improved trailer, but i feel that i just saw the hole movie and seems like remake more than continuity
This time it’s personal.
Disappointed - where`s the rap music?
That is funny.
😆
The first one had kid rock playing in the trailer and is still one of the best movies.. music for trailers don’t mean anything

G2 looks to have more fantasy to it compared to the 1st one but I must admit I do like the look of it 🤩
Not gonna lie i was on the fence, the fact they built a collusium to film in blows me away , i have a feeling this is gonna be amazing
Gonna love this one
Bring back Maximus! In this life or the next
After watching this Trailer, Gladiator is one of those films that never needed a sequel or become a franchise😒. This trailer was better than the 1st one(that trailers song smh)🙄
Hope don't dispappoint. Waiting for the meaningful actions!
This looks fn awesome...great cast great storyline. I got my 🍿 my rasinettes and my ICEE
Why?
So it’s finally confirmed that Lucius is Maximus’ son
From the trailer looks Awesome.But i hope worth it that they build a whole Collosseum for this,to hit in box office.
The emperors look like "Elagabalus" and Severus Alexander
I have a HOT TAKE....the first trailer was better
Pedro Pascal has officially jumped the shark. It's all downhill from here.
There’s a hell
Of a lot negative comments, has this film been released early and everyone has seen it? ..I thought the trailer looked alright to be fair?..now call me old fashioned..but I’m actually going to wait until the movie comes out, but a cinema ticket go and watch it and make up my own mind !✌️
