Hector was considered a quarter god, blessed by Poseidon. Hence his moniker of "Tamer of Storms", Hector supposedly always had good sailing weather. If a ship killer storm was approaching it would miraculously dissipate before it reached his ship. On land he also always seemed to have good weather for his combat on land, it would never rain and ruin the terrain on the eve of combat. By comparison, Achilles was a half god. Born to be the penultimate warrior. He was never blessed with good weather, or even great arms/armor (look up the start of his career, he had absolute CRAP). However, he was gifted with several lives worth of combat experience upon the completion of his first kill. Total control over his body and the ability to push beyond human limits of exertion. It also didn't matter what weapon you handed him, he would fight like a complete master with it immediately. Hector never stood a chance in a duel. Or even squad on squad, after all, being trained by someone with all that experience increases the effectiveness of the trainees. Hector, however, had a better grasp of true army on army combat by virtue that he could get that many men to follow him! Achilles didn't trust people, only his squad mates. Due to that, while other soldiers/Greeks idolized him, they were also afraid of him and would not immediately follow his orders. It also doesn't help that the Greeks themselves weren't truly unified, while Hector's military force was completely unified.

Midas T. Golden I'd say this is thenone Achilles fight they tried to actually even out. Hector broke his spear shortly after his was broken, and there were moments where Hector scratched his armor and almost stabbed him. Achilles woulda fell any other man the way he did Boagrius in clip 1. That's why Achilles tells Priam Hector was the best he ever fought after all
Kâ Lys I think you got the idiot wrong. 1. Achilles was the son of the goddess Thetis, with his father Peleus being a human man. Hence Demi-god "half God" 2. Thetis dunked Achilles in the River Styx to make him immortal but was holding him by the heel so that part became the only vulnerable part of his body 2. As seen in the movie, Achilles clearly could only be killed by the wound to the ankle since at the end when he got arrows all in his core, he could pull them out with ease but the one in his heel remained when he did. Briseis was in shock by this as Achilles did not even seem fased by being shot in the core arrow after arrow. 4. Even the boy who picks up Achilles to bring him to this war says, "They say your mother is an immortal Goddess. They say you can't be killed!" Achilles doesn't tell him obviously but we see the truth in the end. Yes, Wolfgang and the others working on the film did make this movie much more about the humans and removed the involvment of the Gods that you read about in the Iliad, and I personally really like how they made it mainly based on the people and they made it relatable with the Sons of Troy questioning the so called "omens" from the Gods, same with how we may question the religion our parents gave us. But these hints of Achilles being half God as he 100% is are there in the movie too and there's no way you can ignore them
The Patriot is STILL one of my top favorites... the scene hit so hard, you're following the rush, and feel that righteous vengeance full-throttle until the very end when you start to feel the loss and anguish. Brilliant.
ive watch the achilles vs hector scene hundreds of times, whoever was in charge of the the choreography really did a good fcking job and needs to do more like this.
4:53 is so good. He knows his armor and uses it to his advantage. Never seen that in a movie before. Blocking with his shin armor is a pretty amazing attention to detail. It doesn't just cut his leg off.
@@jakedizzle weird i cant find it either anymore, what a shame. Anyway it's the final scene from a movie made back in 2017, not the game, if you search "Chinese movie God of War" it comes up. It's worth a watch, it has Sammo Hung in it.
Killer and combat instinct is godlike, physical prowess is his gift whereas hector is a commander and charisma and morally balance, which fit for a King
Your kidding right? There where dozens of points where he should have lost that fight. Forget that he’s “invulnerable” for a moment and if you view the fight as two skilled warriors, Hector should have won. There where multiple points where when Hector had the spear head and sword, if he had just thrusted the spear while he had Achilles blocked with his sword it would have been over.
@@SimonWoodburyForget Exactly right, i´ve been trained in HEMA (historical european martial arts) for over ten years. This is not how you fight and if anyone did try and do what was being done in this movie you´ed be struck in seconds. Its theatrical sword play and not one bit realistic. Most realistic sword fight in the movies i can think of is the 70´s movie titled The Duellist, their are some fights in this movie that look very nice even though in some of the duels they are using one of my least favourite swords the small sword.
3:42 hardly tried to avoid a spear coming at him without losing eye contact with Hector and casually strolls into the temple Hector - Nah bruh Paris give the girl back
I like how Achilles chucks the spear and hit the guy off his horse... then hector has to close the distance to throw his spear... it was epic and from that point hector knew he was way out of his league
Héctor was also on a horse so you can’t throw full strength as compared to someone standing.. throw a football standing then ride a bike and throw it bet that football only goes about 20 yards 😂
ScotsLyon l have been searching for this comment for years!!!! Finally someone acknowledges Hector and his greatness. He sacrificed his life for his beloved Trojans when it was his brother's responsibility who caused them trouble. One selfless man and true patriot, 'immortal' even after thousand years. He could be a fallen hero, but he is still a HERO!!!
@@jonalaurenson7242 apart from being in charge of the Trojans defences where an estimated 31000 Greeks died, dueling Ajax that lasted all day Hector gave Ajax his sword which he later killed himself on He then gives his life in an attempt to save his country people and family so no I can't think of any other reason why the son of Priam husband of Andromache father of Astyanax has been honoured for a 1000 years and will be for the next 1000 years but maybe you could tell us all?
so basically half of the scenes are from Troy and the rest of it are two scenes from Gladiator and one from the Patriot. What a great diverse selection of movies.
Sam Fisher IF i were to pick the most trully epic fight scenes in Martial Arts movies id pick mostly scenes from the Raid, Raid 2 and some stuff with jet li in it. If we were to go by what the best was without saying we cant choose from the same movie so since that wasnt the criteria this person chose what he felt was the best even though id disagree that the patriot should be on here.
Brad Pitt ain't just a fine looking man but obviously he will be remembered as one of the greatest legendary actors and characters in entire Hollywood and cinema history, his versatile ability to perform virtually any roles is just paramount and exceeding imaginations. His role in Achilles, not just the fighting scenes, which probably helped by stunt performance, but his charisma to impersonate the acting of the legend Achilles is sensational.
indeed, Homer portrays Hector as noble, family man, brave and patriot. When we were reading Iliad at school, all the girls in the class were supporting the Trojans.
I always marvel at supposedly trained warriors suddenly becoming frozen when they have their thrust parried by the hero and just stand their waiting to have a sword plunged into their faces.
“You won’t have eyes tomorrow, you won’t have ears or a tongue. You’ll wander the underworld blind, deaf and dumb, and all the dead will know. This is Hector the fool who thought he’d killed Achilles.”
La pelea entre Hector y Aquiles la he visto como 30 veces, es increíble! Los que armaron esa escena, la coreografía y todo, y el trabajo de los actores, geniales todos! Casi 20 años ya y sigue siendo la mejor pelea mano a mano de la historia del cine épico!
Luke Texter Everyone to me truly is no longer the actor in Troy, I only see their characters. Shows how well they all got into role (and maybe the ling hair and ancient attire helps 😋)
You can't rush perfection .I am sure by the turn of the next century we will get part 2 . It's nearly as slow as the Avatar franchise . Maybe it's the same people involved in this as in Avatar 😂😂🤣
In The Last Year of April, The Director of this Masterpiece; Wolfgang Peterson died... thank you for bringing the historical legend alive, may your name live immortal under the banner of TROY, and the many other wondrous projects you made for Cinema.
I think that is just the story the attackers told themselves for posing as heroes instead of as just thieves and murderers. Nobody starts a 10 years siege for just a women who ran with her lover. It was a robbery campaign in a time when a campaign of slaughter was seen as a time for heroic deeds
He died really because hector killed Achilles lover. His cousin in the film who was killed by hector was Achilles male lover, but it's written he was older than Achilles not younger.
the scene of mel gibson againts the soldier... incredible. The final scene in the river... wau... a father without his son.. the suffer, the pain.. OMG
"You won't have eyes tonight; you won't have ears or a tongue. You will wander the underworld blind, deaf, and dumb, and all the dead will know: This is Hector. The fool who thought he killed Achilles." 💀
I like how the warriors in this scene fight each other face to face with honor instead of using cowardly deceitful strategies. But then again I'm old school you know? But hey if you cant win head up I guess machiavellian methods are better than being subjected, but what do I know? I'm just a mere musician.
Anton Rich if u watch the movie again u’ll see that Hector doesnt want to continue the war. It’s king Priam who forced him to attack the Greek Alliances on the day that Achilles supposed to leave and that led to the event his cousin or lover die.
@@AdamSchelenbergCom And in actual history... Achilles was a pretty trash person. Praim was also not cool. Hector was actually a decent person who was just trying to protect his land. Achilles and his people literally threw Hector's only son off of the walls of troy if i'm not mistaken.
@@alichandrani593 In actual history this war probably never even happened, now in the Iliad you'd be mostly correct. All the heroes are assholes Odysseus, Ajax, Priam all dicks
Troy is a great movie. They depicted Achilles as a human, period. There were no heroes and villains, just people fighting for their sides. Everybody talking how Hector was a good boi but he led thousands to their deaths the moment he didnt turn that ship around to return helen to sparta. He violated the pact his brother made with helens husband (cant remember his name). If you look closely everybody was both good and evil atst
@llleonidas102 I mean, brotherly love is a beautiful thing, but you cant ignore the fact that hector could have avoided a huge war if he simply turned around and returned helen to sparta. He didnt have to die, along with thousands of other men. But he prefered to. Dont fall to any illusions, there are no angels and demons, just men. Hector made a decision and died by it. It's a great movie and I couldn't tell you how many times I've watched it, but just imagining if it was made in Greece and by Greeks, it gives me goosebumps.
Menelaus, Agamemnon's brother, was Helen's husband. I would have enjoyed Troy if somebody hadn't said "hey screenwriter, I don't like Homer's ending; do it different"
You're wrong. If Hector would've turned around during the ship they woudlve slaughtered all of them and then left Troy without a governor to lead them to war. Which is why Agamemnon's brother said he wanted her back to kill her with his bare hands. And Agamemnon was planning to conquer Troy from the gecko. And Hector told Helen to go back to Paris when she was trying to turn herself in because they didn't cross.the sea for her but for war. So no matter what they were going to have a war against Troy from the second Paris stole Helen on the ship. Hector the only real nigga in the whole thing, but even the innocent die too. Like in real life. Can't have you bashing my homie without a true cause
@@nathanrodriguez1637 dude troy had a governor, hector's dad. Troy defended itself despite hector. He antagonized his dad about keeping on fighting. If he returned helen the moment he knew about it, even if he got slaughtered together with all his men at the time, it would have been less of a slaughter than it was the way it happened. Hector was no more hero or villain than anyone else in this story, period.
The Illiad is an incredible epic and Troy really stands out to show the story in a very real way. The poem will incorporate the Gods as well, and worth another view on the psyche of a soldier. Great historical story all around, Homer's depiction (to common knowledge) is a fable, but true regardless. (The city is known, the wars are mentioned in texts, but a full 10 year siege is not likely... the heroes are of course there for story reasons.)
If I remember correctly she had to select a small part of him to remain vulnerable so she chose something that would normally be nearly impossible to hit
Achilles fights for his own glory. if someone to be called selfish, he deserves to be. fuck him and his brutality that is praised as heroic. Hector is the true warior indeed.
The Hektor vs Achilles fight was very well done. Each part of it was showing you something specific about the two men but particularly Hektor.and how he contrasts with Paris. You see from the start just by the way they both move that they are similar to each other and different to everyone else. This is reinforced when you see Hektor successfully defend against Achilles' leaping thrust to the neck that Boagrius and others were killed by. Then you have them both showing great technical skills with shield and spear ending with both fighters breaking the others spear to set up the remainder of the fight with swords. But while they are in a league of their own and fairly evenly matched, Achilles has the edge. Hektor seems a little more tired, his technique is a little more ragged and he doesn't have the anger driving him on that Achilles does. This continues for the sword section of the fight - both fighting brilliantly but Hektor gradually becoming more tired. Nevertheless he is able to cut Achilles breast plate, to Achilles surprise, thus getting closer than anyone else to killing him. But this was Hekor's last big chance. After this he's seriously tired but though he trips on a rock and is wounded by Achilles (in the same way as Paris was against Menelaus) unlike Paris he carried on fighting through the pain. He eventually succumbs to Achilles but never loses his honor throughout the fight and at the point of death. Were the ancient Greeks and Trojans able to see this fight I think they would take the meaning (or at least one of them) to be that as a man, you can be noble, brave and skilled .... above all others even - but if the gods are against you and fate is against you then you are doomed. Hektor was as good as it was possible for a mortal man to be in terms of his character and his skills. Achilles was less noble in character but he was part god through his mother. it gave him the edge over Hektor and fate had already determined that Achilles was going to achieve great glory at Troy. So Hektor's end was inevitable. In short - mortal man cannot overcome the will of the gods.
Aegon Targaryen The kind of shields that we see in the video were designed to be used in formed lines to provide a kind of wall that the fighters could stay behind under arrow fire and spear attack. You can see that the bottom edge of the shields line up with the top of the leg armor You would need them in single combat with spears because it's very difficult to parry a spear thrust with another spear. But if it came down to swords the weight of the shield would tend to throw you off balance, as well as tire you out and restrict your mobility. But the main technical problem was that when you block a strike aimed at upper chest, neck or head height by raising your shield you basically lose your view of your opponent. Better to ditch them and rely on speed and defensive sword technique.
To tell you the truth,hector's conditioning sucked compared to that of achilles'es,and even though hector was finest among the trojans or eunans,no body took fighting as seriously as achilles did,hector was a king(the would be king) and he never had to care about taking on entire troop at once,he sure could but he also would have taken a shitload of damage,achilles on the other hand was no king or stuff,the only thing he knew about himself is that he was a fighter and he wanted to be the BEST fighter in the world,hector was no where near as serious as this,he was a human and a kind person who hates killing,he would never feel justified in achilles'es ambitions,the art of hitting WITHOUT EVER GETTING HIT was achilles'es speciality and thats where he is superior compared to hector,but they both had heart.Things would have been different if it was an unarmed fight,the thing with weapons is,its too easy for the more skilled person and it is impossible for a human to recover from fatal wounds,to be truthful I would be greatly interested in seeing a hand to hand altercation in between them.
Hector was the best and most noble man, Achilles was the best and most relentless warrior, I loved them both in Troy. Also, it still makes me sad and bitter to see Heath Ledger, damn.... 12 years and it still hurts, he was taken away from us way to soon.
Troy is underrated. The critics were trying to compare it to Braveheart and Gladiator, and they were uncomfortable with a guy being shirtless for some reason, even when it made sense for the scene. Anyway, it was a very solid movie. It wasn't Gladiator, but it was certainly 9/10.
I believe Hector vs Achilles is perfect to portray Achilles's abilities in combat. He clearly sees that his opponent makes plenty of mistakes but he still does not deliver the final blow until Hector is completely exhausted and really has no chance to win anymore (he did not stand a chance to begin with but he still gave it his best). Loved it !
It wasn't a fair fight. Hector already lost the fight in his mind because of the guilt at killing a young boy in battle. If he was mentally and emotionally stable, he would have fought better. Though, Achilles will still defeat him😅
@@dennisrodriguez3689 one shotting somehow does not give you as much as pride than winning after a good figth. The 1st figth against the big guy was to demoralized the opponents, the figth against hector was for pride.

We went to see Troy with my history class when it came out... that first scene vs Boagrius is what silenced all of us made us watch the hole movie in absolute silence... Fcking EPIC!!!
One of my favorite movies! So unfair for Hector..as great a warrior as he was and a good man..he was no match for Achilles who could only be beat one way! I hated to see this fight
Greeks believed this happened so much that Alexander the Great visited the tomb of Achilles at Troy. We can't locate Troy now but apparently somewhere in the 320s or 330s BC Alexander knew where it was. I want a time machine that can look back and watch history like a movie that you could scroll to any event that ever happened just like watching UA-cam videos. What would be the first thing I'd watch? Maybe Hector vs Achilles? I'm not sure if this happened and neither is anyone else but it's a great story. Alexander believed it so I'll go with a yes.
Which general of Achilles are you speaking of ? Agamemnon ?? He is a king here. Which general of Leonidas ?? He is the king of sparta, no general before him . I dont understand your comment.
Achilles was a king...Leonidas was a king...i am talking about their general which means his rank was lower...check the first mate of Achilles and Leonidas and you will understand...
GwJ78 You know the diffrence General and King? General just do wars with or withouth King,when king command the Country and the armie,and he mean the right hand of Achilles that he's a general in Achilles army/company and this same person played General in 300 where he was King Leonig General that raised this 300 soldier for him
that scene in the patriot is so badass. the look on the kids faces is epic af cause they thought their father was a coward until that moment when he massacred them.
Have to respect Hector. He went out and fought Achilles knowing he would surely die. He also lasted longer than any man that has fought him AND he connected one of his attacks.
Eclipse 01 yes but in italian it s sounds better.. i am italian and we are from the ancient romans ... so plis.. english - gladiator is not a good relation
@@issi529 Aesthetically, sure. He was in great shape. He looked absolutely ridiculous the way he pouted and posed for the camera to show off those aesthetics. Seriously - just rewatch it and think about that while you watch the guy. It's cringe-worthy.
Yoooo thats what I was thinking!!!!!! Like "let me find out Brad was suppose to play a Thor !!!" Cause Hector played a Hulk at one point in time so...... YES that would of been dope for Brad to play Thor but Angelina would of been looking for dat CHECK for them kids! Lmmfaooo
@@lovokill__er72 that's literally what spears are for. For throwing from far away. Didnt you see the scene right after where he throws the spear at the guy riding a horse?
A Space Butterfly Aye, this is why the sound lads use it. Well, if your sword makes this sound while drawing it, this means it is chaffing along with its fuller or blade, meaning, you put stress on them and the sword is damaged or dulled.
Toyota Camry, Kingdom of Heaven. It also has Orlando Bloom and Brendon Gleason, has sweeping epic fights and battles, takes a lot of fiction liberties, and is otherwise quite entertaining (do the directors cut).
Troy was way beyond it's time. The fighting, the blood, the acting. All of that's better than most modern movies.
Except it wasn't. Gladiator was. This was made and released afterwards because of Gladiator.
I could also mention Brotherhood of the Wolf (Le Pacte de Coup). Alexander with Colin Farrell. What Troy is, is a movie, possibly a masterpiece for those who don't watch movies. I'd argue Troy was one of THE LAST of these movies like it.

4:53 is so good. He knows his armor and uses it to his advantage. Never seen that in a movie before. Blocking with his shin armor is a pretty amazing attention to detail. It doesn't just cut his leg off.

considering this armour is made from a literal god its pretty tough
“Imagine a king that fights his own battles, wouldn’t that be a sight.” In your face king.
Why does this quote remind me of King in One Punch Man?
All the fighting scenes in Troy were absolutely spectacular. Achilles balance, reflex, technique and strength Gaddamit - what a warrior
Killer and combat instinct is godlike, physical prowess is his gift whereas hector is a commander and charisma and morally balance, which fit for a King
Your kidding right? There where dozens of points where he should have lost that fight. Forget that he’s “invulnerable” for a moment and if you view the fight as two skilled warriors, Hector should have won. There where multiple points where when Hector had the spear head and sword, if he had just thrusted the spear while he had Achilles blocked with his sword it would have been over.
@@blaznskais2048 I suppose it could have gone that way too
The fight scenes in that movie were so unrealistic that i could´t wait for it to end.
@@SimonWoodburyForget Exactly right, i´ve been trained in HEMA (historical european martial arts) for over ten years. This is not how you fight and if anyone did try and do what was being done in this movie you´ed be struck in seconds. Its theatrical sword play and not one bit realistic. Most realistic sword fight in the movies i can think of is the 70´s movie titled The Duellist, their are some fights in this movie that look very nice even though in some of the duels they are using one of my least favourite swords the small sword.
3:42 hardly tried to avoid a spear coming at him without losing eye contact with Hector and casually strolls into the temple

Bruh thats funny as shit ahhaah
Ha ha. That's what he should have done.
@uncletigger True story.
The king wanted his war anyway. Helen just gave him an excuse.
I love how Achilles's shield casually catches an arrow the moment he places it at his back
Beautiful
I like how Achilles chucks the spear and hit the guy off his horse... then hector has to close the distance to throw his spear... it was epic and from that point hector knew he was way out of his league
Achilles was sizing him up 😅
It also defies all physics!
Héctor was also on a horse so you can’t throw full strength as compared to someone standing.. throw a football standing then ride a bike and throw it bet that football only goes about 20 yards 😂
Hector knew he couldn't but still went
Thats why he is remembered
Being remembered is overrated. I rather stay alive so that I can spend more years in the sofa, eating Cheetos and wanking
@@oommcc ahhhhh cheetos nigga cheetos
ScotsLyon l have been searching for this comment for years!!!! Finally someone acknowledges Hector and his greatness. He sacrificed his life for his beloved Trojans when it was his brother's responsibility who caused them trouble. One selfless man and true patriot, 'immortal' even after thousand years. He could be a fallen hero, but he is still a HERO!!!
ScotsLyon really? That’s the only reason he is remembered?
@@jonalaurenson7242 apart from being in charge of the Trojans defences where an estimated 31000 Greeks died, dueling Ajax that lasted all day
Hector gave Ajax his sword which he later killed himself on
He then gives his life in an attempt to save his country people and family so no I can't think of any other reason why the son of Priam husband of Andromache father of Astyanax has been honoured for a 1000 years and will be for the next 1000 years but maybe you could tell us all?
so basically half of the scenes are from Troy and the rest of it are two scenes from Gladiator and one from the Patriot. What a great diverse selection of movies.
Sam Fisher IF i were to pick the most trully epic fight scenes in Martial Arts movies id pick mostly scenes from the Raid, Raid 2 and some stuff with jet li in it. If we were to go by what the best was without saying we cant choose from the same movie so since that wasnt the criteria this person chose what he felt was the best even though id disagree that the patriot should be on here.
Sam Fisher It does say part 1, more parts, more selections
Paul Maurer I don't see a part two
Sam Fisher خ
Sam Fisher and all of them are completely untrue or in the case of Troy, completely ignore the source material.
Brad Pitt ain't just a fine looking man but obviously he will be remembered as one of the greatest legendary actors and characters in entire Hollywood and cinema history, his versatile ability to perform virtually any roles is just paramount and exceeding imaginations. His role in Achilles, not just the fighting scenes, which probably helped by stunt performance, but his charisma to impersonate the acting of the legend Achilles is sensational.

I always marvel at supposedly trained warriors suddenly becoming frozen when they have their thrust parried by the hero and just stand their waiting to have a sword plunged into their faces.
I agree. I've never liked how the "foot soldiers" just stand there after missing waiting to get killed.
Better than star wars.
If it was realistic it wouldn’t be a very good scene, they would just be getting stomped out by 30 people 😂
Don't care how good a swordsman someone is, it's unlikely they could defeat 2 or more trained soldiers attacking them at once.
2:00 The second arrow hit when he put the shield in his back, such a lucky move... I'm glad to notice this and that the director put this detail.
not really, he knew there were enemies behind him and he knew his back was exposed. That was a predictive precautionary measure which proved good.

Poor hector... He had to die for his little brother selfishness
I think that is just the story the attackers told themselves for posing as heroes instead of as just thieves and murderers. Nobody starts a 10 years siege for just a women who ran with her lover. It was a robbery campaign in a time when a campaign of slaughter was seen as a time for heroic deeds
Stupidity more like it...
He died really because hector killed Achilles lover. His cousin in the film who was killed by hector was Achilles male lover, but it's written he was older than Achilles not younger.
Not selfishness

@@AdamSchelenbergCom And in actual history... Achilles was a pretty trash person. Praim was also not cool. Hector was actually a decent person who was just trying to protect his land. Achilles and his people literally threw Hector's only son off of the walls of troy if i'm not mistaken.
@@alichandrani593 In actual history this war probably never even happened, now in the Iliad you'd be mostly correct. All the heroes are assholes Odysseus, Ajax, Priam all dicks
Hector was far more likeable. He was honorable and also a better man than his brother Paris. He was a mortal, he was a leader.
Troy is a great movie. They depicted Achilles as a human, period. There were no heroes and villains, just people fighting for their sides. Everybody talking how Hector was a good boi but he led thousands to their deaths the moment he didnt turn that ship around to return helen to sparta. He violated the pact his brother made with helens husband (cant remember his name). If you look closely everybody was both good and evil atst
@llleonidas102 I mean, brotherly love is a beautiful thing, but you cant ignore the fact that hector could have avoided a huge war if he simply turned around and returned helen to sparta. He didnt have to die, along with thousands of other men. But he prefered to. Dont fall to any illusions, there are no angels and demons, just men. Hector made a decision and died by it. It's a great movie and I couldn't tell you how many times I've watched it, but just imagining if it was made in Greece and by Greeks, it gives me goosebumps.
Menelaus, Agamemnon's brother, was Helen's husband. I would have enjoyed Troy if somebody hadn't said "hey screenwriter, I don't like Homer's ending; do it different"
You're wrong. If Hector would've turned around during the ship they woudlve slaughtered all of them and then left Troy without a governor to lead them to war. Which is why Agamemnon's brother said he wanted her back to kill her with his bare hands. And Agamemnon was planning to conquer Troy from the gecko. And Hector told Helen to go back to Paris when she was trying to turn herself in because they didn't cross.the sea for her but for war. So no matter what they were going to have a war against Troy from the second Paris stole Helen on the ship. Hector the only real nigga in the whole thing, but even the innocent die too. Like in real life. Can't have you bashing my homie without a true cause
@@nathanrodriguez1637 dude troy had a governor, hector's dad. Troy defended itself despite hector. He antagonized his dad about keeping on fighting. If he returned helen the moment he knew about it, even if he got slaughtered together with all his men at the time, it would have been less of a slaughter than it was the way it happened. Hector was no more hero or villain than anyone else in this story, period.
I think it makes him seem a lot more skilful because he doesn’t have any added strength from being half god, which he definitely does in the myths
The Illiad is an incredible epic and Troy really stands out to show the story in a very real way. The poem will incorporate the Gods as well, and worth another view on the psyche of a soldier.
Great historical story all around, Homer's depiction (to common knowledge) is a fable, but true regardless.
(The city is known, the wars are mentioned in texts, but a full 10 year siege is not likely... the heroes are of course there for story reasons.)

The Hektor vs Achilles fight was very well done. Each part of it was showing you something specific about the two men but particularly Hektor.and how he contrasts with Paris.
You see from the start just by the way they both move that they are similar to each other and different to everyone else. This is reinforced when you see Hektor successfully defend against Achilles' leaping thrust to the neck that Boagrius and others were killed by.
Then you have them both showing great technical skills with shield and spear ending with both fighters breaking the others spear to set up the remainder of the fight with swords.
But while they are in a league of their own and fairly evenly matched, Achilles has the edge. Hektor seems a little more tired, his technique is a little more ragged and he doesn't have the anger driving him on that Achilles does.
This continues for the sword section of the fight - both fighting brilliantly but Hektor gradually becoming more tired. Nevertheless he is able to cut Achilles breast plate, to Achilles surprise, thus getting closer than anyone else to killing him. But this was Hekor's last big chance. After this he's seriously tired but though he trips on a rock and is wounded by Achilles (in the same way as Paris was against Menelaus) unlike Paris he carried on fighting through the pain.
He eventually succumbs to Achilles but never loses his honor throughout the fight and at the point of death.
Were the ancient Greeks and Trojans able to see this fight I think they would take the meaning (or at least one of them) to be that as a man, you can be noble, brave and skilled .... above all others even - but if the gods are against you and fate is against you then you are doomed.
Hektor was as good as it was possible for a mortal man to be in terms of his character and his skills. Achilles was less noble in character but he was part god through his mother. it gave him the edge over Hektor and fate had already determined that Achilles was going to achieve great glory at Troy. So Hektor's end was inevitable. In short - mortal man cannot overcome the will of the gods.
thats a real battle between two hoplites, start and figth whit spears until was broken... But, why leave the shields
Aegon Targaryen
The kind of shields that we see in the video were designed to be used in formed lines to provide a kind of wall that the fighters could stay behind under arrow fire and spear attack. You can see that the bottom edge of the shields line up with the top of the leg armor
You would need them in single combat with spears because it's very difficult to parry a spear thrust with another spear.
But if it came down to swords the weight of the shield would tend to throw you off balance, as well as tire you out and restrict your mobility.
But the main technical problem was that when you block a strike aimed at upper chest, neck or head height by raising your shield you basically lose your view of your opponent.
Better to ditch them and rely on speed and defensive sword technique.
To tell you the truth,hector's conditioning sucked compared to that of achilles'es,and even though hector was finest among the trojans or eunans,no body took fighting as seriously as achilles did,hector was a king(the would be king) and he never had to care about taking on entire troop at once,he sure could but he also would have taken a shitload of damage,achilles on the other hand was no king or stuff,the only thing he knew about himself is that he was a fighter and he wanted to be the BEST fighter in the world,hector was no where near as serious as this,he was a human and a kind person who hates killing,he would never feel justified in achilles'es ambitions,the art of hitting WITHOUT EVER GETTING HIT was achilles'es speciality and thats where he is superior compared to hector,but they both had heart.Things would have been different if it was an unarmed fight,the thing with weapons is,its too easy for the more skilled person and it is impossible for a human to recover from fatal wounds,to be truthful I would be greatly interested in seeing a hand to hand altercation in between them.
What makes you think that anger makes you a better fighter?
Healthy Grain
Perhaps 'drive' would have been a better word.
Hector was the best and most noble man, Achilles was the best and most relentless warrior, I loved them both in Troy. Also, it still makes me sad and bitter to see Heath Ledger, damn.... 12 years and it still hurts, he was taken away from us way to soon.
@@davy3976 the last part of the video, he's in the movie "The Patriot" alongside Mel Gibson.
Troy is underrated. The critics were trying to compare it to Braveheart and Gladiator, and they were uncomfortable with a guy being shirtless for some reason, even when it made sense for the scene. Anyway, it was a very solid movie. It wasn't Gladiator, but it was certainly 9/10.
I believe Hector vs Achilles is perfect to portray Achilles's abilities in combat. He clearly sees that his opponent makes plenty of mistakes but he still does not deliver the final blow until Hector is completely exhausted and really has no chance to win anymore (he did not stand a chance to begin with but he still gave it his best). Loved it !
I noticed the same. He didn't just want to kill him, he wanted the honor of a glorious combat.
It wasn't a fair fight.
Hector already lost the fight in his mind because of the guilt at killing a young boy in battle.
If he was mentally and emotionally stable, he would have fought better.
Though, Achilles will still defeat him😅
Hector died before the fight

@@lovokill__er72 Chickens can't throw spears.
Not the non-GM ones anyway
Actually, this *shhhiiiingggg* sound when drawing your sword is a very reliable indicator for the bad quality of your sheath.

Aye, this is why the sound lads use it. Well, if your sword makes this sound while drawing it, this means it is chaffing along with its fuller or blade, meaning, you put stress on them and the sword is damaged or dulled.
Or maybe its because of the forceful and angled way upon they draw
the shing sound is made by an aid grinding two bits of metal together off screen ... well they gotta be historically accurate

So, historically, swords made this sound when drawn? May I ask you about your sources for your assertion?
Thaulopi
Haha, I use felt in the scabbard of my sabre and it barely makes any sound when drawn or hidden. I can feel your pain, mate.

To walk up and ask is there no one else with NO back up was baller AF 🤣
Troy is such a great film. Love it 10/10
it's an absolute abomination. How can you genuinely love that movie??? It sucks balls from beginning to end...
@@MacSvensson It's almost like people enjoy different things
@@F1zzzy90 do you know any other movies like Troy?
Toyota Camry, Kingdom of Heaven. It also has Orlando Bloom and Brendon Gleason, has sweeping epic fights and battles, takes a lot of fiction liberties, and is otherwise quite entertaining (do the directors cut).
Dont get why it gets so much shit. Was an excellent swords and sandals flick
"Praetorian!" Russel Crowe has a tremendous voice.
Troy /Tombstone /Django/Training Day / pulp Fiction hands down my favorite movies of all time !
This was spot on well done ❤❤
Troy is basically like the ancient Greek’s D-day
