This second reaction was worth the wait and like always the editing for the levity is fantastic. This ending always brings a tear if not for Maximus but also for Juba, Djimon Hounsou's character. It's always a good movie to re-watch once in a while.
Oliver Reed the man who played the Gladiator trainer died during the making of this. Got into a drinking competition with some sailors in Malta where it was filmed and died. They used CGI during the final parts I believe.
This is one of my all time favourite movies ever so I waited for the 2nd video to watch the reaction in full. This was the first time I saw Joaquin Phoenix act and he's a big actor now but boy did he and Russell Crowe act this well.
"I will see you again, but not yet, Not yet" always makes me happy because he gets to go see & live his life with his family which are still alive. such a beautiful story this movie tells. idk if you guys ever checked out -The Last Kingdom- would recommend it's another story i loved watching.
Actually, in Rome, when the Emperor gestured thumb down it meant ''Ground your sword!'' to the victor. The vanquished fighter was spared. If, however, he gestured toward his neck, it meant ''Death!'' to the vanquished.
31:21 Originally, Proximo was supposed to survive til the end of the movie, but the actor, Oliver Reed, died during filming so they had to change the ending.
I think this was the first movie I ever cried to when I was a kid. It was so good and Phoenix was so annoying but he did a great job as a villain. I hated him as a kid
With the gladiators sometimes they did do it voluntarily! It just depended. Sometimes they were slaves who could receive freedom -- other times they were like professional athletes who just wanted to do it for the fame. And boooy the gladiators were famous. Super taken care of. We're talking daily baths, any food you could want, everyone wants to be you. Pretty sweet gig. Also, it was common for the gladiators to show mercy. They did sometimes fight to the death, but mercy was far more common amongst two known and popular gladiators. The fans, like today, sometimes just want a good fight. And like today in the UFC where you get two dudes the fans both love fighting, the crowd doesn't want either guy bodied really if that makes sense. The Colloseum was madness though, and you were definitely seeing stuff die. Mostly animals. Animals were BY FAR the biggest victims. And humans were most frequently killed by animals in the colloseum. It was their version of "Man vs Beast" but it was literal. They would put people in there with a bear just to see what would happen. Shit like that was suuuper common. Or just having staged hunts of big animals like elephants or tigers. Also, they used to do live re-enactments of historical battles with actual deaths (that's the first type of fight Maximus had in Rome). This movie shows that side of the gladiator world -- more of the inmate; prisoner; slave; getting fed to lion colloseum than the UFC with weapons version that's sometimes described from accounts. But as best as we can tell, it was both. The colloseum was just an arena, and they had all different kinds of stuff you could see. Plus they gave out free bread!!!!! Win win!!!!
Gladiator although commercially & critically successful was not considered to be an absolute great film by critics at the time because of its historical inaccuracy and dramatization. I remember at the time watching it and thinking it's an okay good film but now that I know more about filmmaking & acting, it's a true classic cultural iconic film & in retrospect is seen in a lot better light by critics.
Its so wild this movie came out in 2000 and people still watch sports thats sole purpose is to distract us and divide us....ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!?!
The significance of the dirt rubbing was to remind himself that he came from the dust and to the dust he shall return. It was an acceptance of the possible death to come.
Great video guys, im a grow man and every time i see this masterpiece i cry af😭😂. Oh they are actually doing The Gladiator 2 it will come out in November 2024 , can't wait. strenght and honor💪🏼
No didn't win me over to many stops for the stupid and pointless N Word it's old news, repression, Victimisation and persecution is for history to learn and never repeat again I'm getting the violin out as I speak.
In these times, noble women would pay to be pleasured by Gladiators.. when maximus says "The lady is finished with me" it was to confuse the guard into believing it was one of these such encounters..
Just a personal opinion if you guys are really trying to get your channel going. You guys need to show more of your personality. You need to find the balance of watching the movie n interacting with the camera/audience and showing your personalities without faking it. You want to be yourselves. People want to feel like they're having fun with you both. Just my opinion
Nah, the guy who threw his sword on the ground for maximus, didn't do it out of disrespect.. He's the emperor's guard.. he cannot hand someone the weapon they might use to kill the emperor with..
@@Dai.Natreacts JMO but I thought GoT was GRRRREAT but HoD was too terrible to watch. I was so disappointed. After 5 episodes I stopped torturing myself. Awful. Maybe y'all will like it tho lol I hope so. I wasn't trying to be a dick.
Dude, you allegedly saw this movie FIVE times before and you don't remember the most important details, the most epic moments?! It must not have made much of an impression on you.
I went to see Gladiator when it was released, and it's been in my all time top five ever since! It has an all time soundtrack too.

they really did !!
Both Crowe and J.Phoenix were amazing, probably their best roles.

I loved this reaction, guys!! I was laughing when I shouldn't have been!😄

Great movie.
I don’t think I have ever hated a villain more than Commodus I felt sick every time he was on screen.
Thanks guy’s 😊 that was a good one
*Commodus. Marcus was his dad
@@k3n12ock 😂😂😂 oops 😊 thank you
omggg we HATED him!!!
The woman playing Maximus wife,...is the wife of the director, Ridley Scott
‘I will see you again, but not yet, not yet’
The last moment Hollywood did the job. Then came Marvel and Netflix
I remember seeing this film in a theater on a massive screen. Remember when you last saw a movie this great in a theater?
@@Nostromo-hz1ud midnight screening, champs Élysées paris
I think this was the first movie I ever cried to when I was a kid. It was so good and Phoenix was so annoying but he did a great job as a villain. I hated him as a kid
he did do a great job as a villain because i truly hated him watching this
If you like this Ridley Scott movie, try kingdom of heaven. All star cast.
Yes!!!! "Kingdom of Heaven" (directors cut)
Another Ridley Scott classic
The three friends were awesome together Maximus and Juba
First time I watched it , I was too young and busy reading the subtitles to get the emotions. 2nd time, I may have shed some manly tears .. D:

Well it's estimated that 400,000 people have died there. Eeek
22:09 is the most outrageous edit you've made so far LMAO
😂😂😂😂
What many people don't seem to catch is that Maximus was poisoned when the emperor stabbed him. There was poison on that dagger.
Gladiator although commercially & critically successful was not considered to be an absolute great film by critics at the time because of its historical inaccuracy and dramatization.

Lebron got that powder toss from Michael Jordan
Great reaction with the inserted clips!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed !!
My son got two buck 50s lol. This is top 10 greatest movies of all times fr.

MF DOOM yeeeeee
It might be a good idea not to yawn during your reactions.
The new movie Talk To Me is a masterpiece!!! It just came out😊
30.20 the black guy next to the big man looks like the reactor in this video. :)

I don't know how to request a movie, but y'all should watch tears of the sun. Even if you don't react to it. Its a good one. You'd like it.
You won me over!
New subscriber.
Asia and BJ are my favorite reactors, but I'm excited to go through all these great movies with you guys. 💕

@@davidnorton6400 I hope the violin is for you, really sounds like you need it
the princess drugged him, which is why he always falls asleep

Johnwick 2014 next please. ❤❤
Good reaction 👈

Watch braveheart👌
I think Tigres, is the same guard who's blade got stuck in the cold and got his face slashed. That was his punishment for lying.
Trigris was a retired champion. No way he could have had a full career in the time between Maximus escaping and his last fight.
Watch Ben Hur if you liked this
Gladiator part-2 Going in 2025 with Denzel Washington. 😅
Nah, the guy who threw his sword on the ground for maximus, didn't do it out of disrespect..
He's the emperor's guard.. he cannot hand someone the weapon they might use to kill the emperor with..
Oh ok. Dai was heated when he saw that
Am i not mercyful
What would be awesome is you reacting to a masterpiece series Game of Thrones😊 You would love it:)
We watched it already years ago. It was one of our favorite shows!! We are now watching house of dragons on our patreon page !
@@Dai.Natreacts JMO but I thought GoT was GRRRREAT but HoD was too terrible to watch. I was so disappointed. After 5 episodes I stopped torturing myself. Awful. Maybe y'all will like it tho lol I hope so. I wasn't trying to be a dick.
If you guys have not watched it I recommend 'Braveheart'. If una appreciated this movie.
Dude, you allegedly saw this movie FIVE times before and you don't remember the most important details, the most epic moments?! It must not have made much of an impression on you.
Saw it once in 2003 when I was 12 and I had it playing in the background while cleaning up about 5-6 years ago
Come on bruh give him a break 😂 some things just don’t stick
'Promo SM' 👍
horrible reaction
bro. you signed up for wrong the wife. this woman does not have a soul
Lol What are you saying ?
Imagine watching a movie like this and have these two idiots talking the whole time
Sounds like a great time !! Lol
