@@Rehvidepaigaldus Thank you so much 😊 yeah these are a way to have more casual videos here and there, but still so people could learn something. Especially after the human sacrifice video I also needed a more chill topic.
Cool reaction vid! 🔥 I'm excited about the movie too. I'm sure that rhino was Cgi or such, since they are so endangered and there are finally much better restrictions on how animals are used in Hollywood 'movies. (Especially learning how emotionally sensitive horses are, I'd rather suspend disbelief w the Cgi than see live horses in a battle scene.' The Romans did have a lust for novelty and who knows how many animals were hunted to extinction for trophies, fur extinction, and the colloseum entertainments. Supposedly they may have even hunted & captured the remnant populations of pleistoce Saber tooth leapards 😲 wouldn't that have been a thing to see. A bit of a digression, I think sometimes modern people don't realize how much more biodiversity there was, even 100 years ago. So it's hard to know from attested names of plants & animals what all they did have access to, so many mysteries. Hope you do more reaction vids, very enjoyable! 🤩
I know they've found traces of the Romans eating even giraffes 🦒 😰. So they definetly did a lot of that exotic animal consumption in different types of ways. And I agree with you about the CGI, rather do that than harm animals for a movie.
I completely agree that this movie should have been its own story and not lean on the original Gladiator. Now i’ll be comparing it to one my favorite movies.
Well it'll be a shame this'll end up being compared to the original. I agree, looks like it could stand alone but Hollywood be Hollywood and they like their franchises 🙄 Good to see Oskar getting a back row seat to the premiere 😏
I thought denzel was to play a lanista, a gladiator trainer and Lucius is part of his ludus?! There were many stand in emperors after commodus death while some died from sickness some were murdered and at the hight of romes decline was the 2 emperors we see in the movie, They must be Geta and caracalla.
@@Zorthar100 He is written to play Macrinus. Because of all of these emperors in ancient Rome I looked up the cast beforehand, because this would've been too confusing otherwise. Macrinus lived during the same time as these 2 brother emperors and played a role in their downfall. 😊 This movie will be good! Can't wait to see it.
@@mooselady The thing is, like you said, Macrinus was a berber born in Northern Africa, and Denzel Washington looks more like a Saharian or Subsaharian guy, a "Gaetuli" for example, but anyway, this is not a 'historical movie".
We are 100% gonna go see this
I'm really enjoying the reaction videos here and there! Love to see your personality and I feel these videos somehow show them better :-)

Yes 100%. It might be a great movie on its own, but it is trapping itself by labeling it as part of the Gladiator franchise. 🤷♀️

@@almorad981 we can agree to disagree about that. He is also an American playing someone in ancient Rome 😅
@@mooselady "He is also an American playing someone in ancient Rome." We can at least be sure to agree on that 😄!
