    This battle between Hercules and Ares is the first of many epic battles that the 2 half-brothers would have with each other. In this first battle, it shows that even with his great strength, Hercules could still have trouble fighting against the Olympians, but Hercules usually finds a way to prevail.

      @@StareachValcin Absolutely right, and there were definitely strong jealous feelings that Ares had towards Hercules. I remember in the Xena episode of God Fearing Child when Ares basically asked Zeus if he could kill Hercules because of the "prophecy". The conversation went something of this nature:
      Zeus- "You're asking me permission to kill my own son?!"
      Ares- "WHAT IS IT ABOUT HIM THAT YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN IN ME?!!"
      To which Zeus replied in a more calm manner that it wasn't just about Ares, but all the Gods. He pointed out how Hercules had managed to win the Mortal's trust and support without having them worship him like the Gods require. That was one of my favorite Xena episodes, because it just showed how angry Ares was towards Hercules, and also the many other crazy events that took part in that episode. Sorry for the long explanation. 😊

      @@b.y.o.p.9035 it's a fine explanation. That Xena episode is one of my personal favorites, as well as the final Hercules and Xena crossover episode. Ironic that Xena got her appearance in the Hercules series and Hercules got his final appearance in the Xena series. Another strange point is that when Zeus died, Ares never gets rid of Hercules. It just shows that even without protection from Zeus, Hercules can still handle Ares on his own.

I loved the interaction between he and Gabrielle about noticing each others "haircut". Just made me smile seeing that because that was the one and only time he had shorter hair.
      Zeus dying was something, and Ares not getting rid of Hercules afterwards was interesting. Like you said, he can handle Ares.

Just made me want to root for Hercules when they started playing it. Thanks for the video. 🙂

    as much as I enjoy the actor who played Aries in the series later on, I do enjoy Aries here. ALmost as a force of nature/chaos. It was creepy AF as a child when I saw this movie. the boiling blood, in a skull fountain, the skull in the moon and that weird Golem thing, the deep voice.....purely evil and unsettling (atleast when I was a kid)
    the actor was almost too charming and funny to be taken as a liable threat (kind of how Loki is in the MCU)
