Came here to say that. His input as an English man would have been great with Drinker there. I would've moved heaven and earth to ensure Sargon was there.
Because Rags' is the only colonist, and the rest will not stand for anti-British propaganda. (I realize Braveheart is anti-English propaganda, but I'm gonna pretend it's different because they weren't the British Empire back then.)
I believe Edward "Longshanks" conquered Wales prior to the events of this movie. So the Long Men of Wales were in there with the English. And we don't see them switch sides like the Irish.
@@williamshelton4318well in our defence (welsh) ireland is across water, if the english wanted to hang our kids for defecting they didnt have as far to go 🤷♀️.
Did you guys really exclude Dankula because he shaved his beard? He could've given great context for the historical events that we're watching unfold 🥺
I want a braveheart remake that includes the following lines: "Somehow Longshanks returned" "I am all of the English"..."And I am all the Scottish" English man being catapulted on the battlefield- "They fly now"?.."They fly now"
I do think a form of pipes did exist in Ireland and Scotland at this time, just not in the modern version we know today. Prima Nocta was most certainly NOT done or allowed! In any Christian country, absolute nonsense. The peasants would have lost their minds, the Church would have had an epileptic fit, and most of the nobles would not have touched it with a ten foot pole even if they liked the idea in theory. .....poor Metal 😵💫
Prima Nocta , also know as 'Droit du seigneur' is one of those things that is 99,99% written down by people who really, really hated christians or catholics. Probably didnt excist. Even the wikipage is just 'and then we have this myth, and that story that maybe it happened 500 years ago'
2032 is going great Trump the 3rd has some surprising really good policy tbh The Squirrel girl movie is eh but its a marvel movie so thats good for them
There's a lot to appreciate about this film. But I think people from random periods in history from anywhere in the world talking like post-engightenment American revolutionaries is my least favourite movie trope.
I can't hate a great movie that happens to be historical nonsense. Like this or Gladiator. Napoleon, on the other hand, lacks not just historical accuracy but a sense of reality. And most importantly is not entertaining.

Rags' has talked about enjoying this movie and the book before. It might be his favorite book. I can't remember. (Maybe it was that one about the sword from his Joe Biden moment.)
@@lordofthepizzapie9319 I’m just twittin Shads tipples. Just seems to be the common consensus on this war arc; Shad gets mad at the inaccuracies while the rest of the panel are having a grand ol time.
I know that this may sound odd, but I wanted to ask if the scientists have already figured out whether Scotland is/was a real country? There was a lot of speculation about that over the years but I stopped paying attention after they presented the supposed, barely understandable Scottish language and said that people there would wear funny dresses, including men, for no reason.
I've been waiting for this for so long... not for the coverage (though good) but to listen to the Scottish accents of the hosts... they're all pretty good except for that drinker guy. Doesn't seem to try very hard
For all historical inaccuracies in this movie, Braveheart is still the best "historical" film portraying English as evil bastards - much better than Joan of Arc from 1999 or even Patriot. In all of those films, English were just shown as cartoonishly evil and even though this same happen to the extend in Braveheart as well, it at least had Edward Longshanks as legitimately cunning, inteligent and to certain extend enjoyable opponent and it shows Scotts as morally compromised and corruptible people as well - so at least it's not entirely black and white conflict. Heck, even this so called Goblin-man had emotional reaction to execution of girl he tried to r... - he may want to r... her but he didn't wished her dead... BTW, I think that epic "historical" films like Braveheart are dead genre... Were was the last time we seen movie like that ?
Lomgshank's policy of breeding his problems away via rape is ethnic cleansing. But aside from that, he is depicted as not cartoonishly evil. Just a king who likes to conquer stuff and doesn't mind making people suffer. I get it.
When I first watched this, my dad covered the screen when they had sex (I had no idea how far it went, but I guess it was just cause of the boobies). The rest of the film is pretty violent and the girl literally has her throat slit in the next scene, but god forbid I see a little booba.
Id love to see 13th warrior in the war arc, i dont think it was in the list of movies they were doing but lotta great memable lines, cheesiness, and epic moments
I barely remember anything about this movie, even though it used to be on TV about at least once a month just a couple years ago. I hope that it's just because of my constantly degrading memory and not because it's a bad movie. My only clear memory is that of the Scottish warriors showing their hams to the enemy army... I'm not complaining but it's odd that my brain chose this specifically. I also remember there being a lot of screaming and all armour being made of butter. I know that this movie is iconic so hopefully it'll hold up and we'll all have a good time.
6:43 You better not make fun of his sons sac clothing. I'll have you know his ancestors became quite a powerful people, eventually moving to Germany and, inspired by their renowned child clothing, they created Saksonia.
The vietnam flashback sequence of Rings of Power did that thing where something is funny, then drags on too long, but the longer it gets it then becomes funny again and then slowly becomes unhinged hilarious
Jesus the snark in this is almost overwhelming. Rags had to comment on every freakin line. Quality, enjoyable films don't need constant sarcasm. You guys are entertaining without that.
I'm constantly wondering why characters don't notice the smell when ground has been prepared with flammable liquid. It happened in an enclosed room on the Walking Dead once. You'd think they'd pass out from lack of oxygen before being burned.
I like that shot of the english soldier that get hit with the warhammer in the sterling bridge battle and it just goes THUNK!!! and his head pops like a cherry. Friggin brutal.
Currently doing a research project regarding depictions/use of the Scots in modern Hollywood films - with a particular focus on Braveheart - and I can confirm that this film is incredibly inaccurate.
@35:30 He's yelling his own family name because he thinks they carried the day, but everyone else thinks he's yelling "Wallace" and joins in with that. Its a bit of situational humour.
I'm fairly certain they're saying "MacAulish!" meaning "Son of Wallace." (William Wallace naturally being the son of a Wallace.) Which turns into "Wallace!"
@@williamshelton4318 Interesting, if that's true then the scene just got worse for me, because I always thought it was funny that the super proud old guy was trying to take the credit.
I feel like the panel is too biased towards recognition of “the crown” to properly appreciate this movie. I guess some of us come from good stock that learned to best those tea sippers when the time came and well, it’s all chill now but, it shows.
I once ate 7g of mushrooms and started freak out while watching cartoons. I told my girlfriend at the time to put on Braveheart to help me calm down. "Braveheart is going to calm you down?" "Just trust me. There's trees and bagpipes... it'll work"
Not-So-Fun Fact: Allegedly, during the filming of the torture scene, Mel Gibson insisted that they actually hang him rather than than using a stunt man or some sort of practical effects/trickery to fake it.
Around 35:32 the older Scotsman (Hamish's father) starts chanting his family's name, McCulloch, to take responsibility for the victory. However, the village rightly gives Wallace the credit by chanting his family name. There seems to have been some confusion about what he was chanting.
@47:19 the battles were fought in Ireland and used Irish army reservists, I knew a few that were there. Apparently meeting up with old friends, they all got drunk the night before, so after the battle while playing dead they fell asleep and started snoring.
I've never seen this movie, but it feels like the plot is a guy who likes to throw rocks a lot has his child bride murdered so goes on a rampage through Scotland. Also, there is a major sub-plot regarding a table.
It’s funny to think that this film is actually accepted as the accurate history of Scotland by a very very large number of ppl. Every Latino/asian I’ve ever met is running with tips as the baseline understanding of Scotland and I’m happy to leave them with that.
