It almost seems like a fluke when they make a great movie. They don't want great movies like this because they teach history and make people smarter. They can't have this. Everyone must be poor and stupid. With no identity. No sense of real history. And politically brainwashed. Every other movie is sprinkled with brainwashing. The characters are boring and feel unsynchronized. The soul is sucked out replaced with special effects and far left talking points. Most of JJ Abrams movies are good examples. I am forced to watch the older movies.
@@D.Medi93 when someone grows too comfortable or complacent in good times, they may start to believe that prosperity is permanent or that life should be free from hardship. This "deception" by prosperity can make it harder for them to cope when difficult times inevitably arrive, as they are unprepared to face life's natural ups and downs.
So true. I'm going through a breakup, and I grew complacent thinking we would always be together because of all we've been through. We were together for almost 4 years. I am taking it so very hard. It's a pain I have never felt before.
@@tex3781 Hang in there my friend. It does get a little better... Or we get more used to it. I'm also going through a breakup (divorce after 14 years) and it was an indescribable pain. I cried until I puked. The scene in this movie when he loses his family is the closest depiction of how I felt at the time. But life goes on; hang in there. I didn't believe it a year ago but it is true that time heal all wounds.
Not sure I deserved your name calling especially since I was simply commenting on how I felt about this video, but hey, if you're that fucking miserable of a person then good on you I guess.@@andrewyaden5209
@Tomara632 Really?... Can you name a single of those men? Because, forgive my cynicism, I don't know a single leader who hasn't become a leader without crushing or tricking his adversaries! This movie is nothing but fantasy.
@afonsodeportugal one could argue that Marcus Aurelius didn't seek to become an emperor. He was adopted by an emperor and groom to be one the best emperor Rome had! Though the movie didn't quite go to detail about his life. You could read his mediation.

When I watch that scene, I think of my brother. He's a total POS, but I really feel like it's to a large degree because of how my father treated him while he was young. There is nothing I can ever do to change either of them, but that is what I think of when I see that scene. I hate it....
Remember that day, we watched this movie at home with my father for the first time. We had an electricity problem and he took battery from the car to connect to tv for watching this movie with me and tried his best to make me happy :(, god what a memory, now he is gone and I still watch this movie and see this clip and remember him, the person who taught me to be human ,real human ...rest in peace father! you deserve every good thing!
Same. We had just payed the light bill. We even made a cardboard sword. I told him he was gladiator. And I the child. Now he is gone. The last thing I made him was a cardboard sword.
My Brother, let us retain the sentiment, whilst being strong like our Fathers. Let us make their sacrifices worth it. They died for us, we need to make sure it wasn’t in vain. Let’s do this.
This movie motivated my father to fight through pain when diagnosed with cancer. Accepting fate, remaining stoic and embracing the reality of debilitation with grace and strength until the end.
"Ahhh Home...tell me about your Home." I have that privilege to have a place like this. Having a home somewhere, is having a place to return, to sleep, it's an identity, doesn't have to be material, it's a place were you are safe.
I remember being 10 years old, we'd just seen Gladiator in cinema (I'd told my parents it was the best film I'd seen up til that point), and my step-sister and I were on a car ride back from our weekly McDonalds kinda comatose/asleep from junk food. My parents were talking about Russell Crowe saying on TV how cheesy that line was and only he could have pulled it off, and how arrogant he was for saying that, but then also saying "well... it's true tbf- only he could pull that off that well". Randomly vivid memory for me. It's true, at that time Russell Crowe was like a new breed of charismatic actor.
just a suggestion, watch Braveheart, you won't have the nostalgia of an 11 year old but it is probably a more powerful film in the same category. PS i also love Gladiator

This is a shakespear level story where good and evil are clearly visible with music that is on one level with Wagner or Beethoven and pictures as powerful as any painting. The best movie that I have ever seen.
Demand and supply, can't blame Hollywood for that, their objective is to make money and if the dumb mindless CGI superhero movies is what the dumb audiences will flock to the theaters for, then that's what they will keep making. It costs a lot to make a movie and if there is no guarantee for returns no one will make it.
The end of 90's and the beginning of XXI-century was the best time for cinematography, don't try to change my mind. The CGI wasn't perfect, but the atmosphere allowed you to feel every setting - Ancient Rome (Gladiator), Persia and Macedonia (Alexander), the Caribbean (Pirates of the Caribbean), World War II (Saving Private Ryan), or fantasy movies like Jurassic Park, Terminator, Waterworld and more, literally everything. They don't make good movies like this anymore. We get empty shells shot on a green screen made in a year, and in addition boring, devoid of depth, sense and emotions.

If you want to show any film to your son. To show him what honour and principle means in a real man. This is his guide. A film that has everything to explain what it means to be a man.
When I was going thru the hardest moment of my life, my father said to me: "Fight, son, fight, fight! Don't give up!" And I didn't gave up. So guys, if you get through some hard times, DON'T GIVE UP. They'll eventually pass. Don't. Give. Up!
Win lose or draw never stop fighting, fighting is what saves our life, if not it saves our soul. I can die but will never give up my soul. Fight to the end, no matter the outcome, you win, even if you die. Better to die fighting than to live running. What you do n life lives in eternity, better words never spoken. We all die, how you die is your choice.
My father Luigi is from Roma and growing up he would play this movie all the time. I would watch with him, he’s watched it over 20 times . Ti amo papà ❤️ the best movie ever made
1. "A MAN'S LIFE IS A WAR BETWEEN WHO HE IS, AND WHO HE WANTS TO BE” 2. "WHEN A MAN LACKS PURPOSE IN HIS LIFE, HE DISTRACTS HIMSELF WITH PLEASURE” 3. “WE MUST ALL SUFFER FROM ONE OF TWO PAINS: THE PAIN OF DISCIPLINE OR THE PAIN OF REGRET", CHOOSE WISELY 4. "CIRCUMSTANCES DON'T MAKE THE MAN, THEY ONLY REVEAL HIM TO HIMSELF AND OTHERS" 5. "WE CANNOT CHOOSE OUR EXTERNAL CIRCUMSTANCES, BUT WE CAN ALWAYS CHOOSE HOW WE RESPOND TO THEM" 6. "THE WORTH OF A MAN IS MEASURED BY THE WORTH OF WHAT HE VALUES"
when he grabs the dirt while the dog looks at him is my favorite clip. It really portrays his trust with mother nature and the dogs recognition. I believe that is the commonality between humans and animals, the connection and trust with the earth.
Maximus commanded respect through his principles and actions. Commodus commanded obedience through fear to fuel his ego even though he got what he wanted briefly he was still a wanker. MASTERPIECE. Great edit BTW.
Well said. Many leaders and in fact whole societies command through fear these days. And it is usually not fear of physical violence, but a palpable fearsome energy that tells people to stay in line, don't upset the apple cart, and being an outcast is worse than death. As someone that has been (and probably still is) an outcast, no it is not. As a Stoic, I see every hardship I have endured as an opportunity to learn. And what I have learned is that people may be kept in line by fear, but they yearn for people & ideas that are unmovable and unbreakable in the face of whatever storm comes. Make sure your deeds align with your principles, and if they do: nothing made by man can stop you.
I think this is the best short summary of the film I have ever seen and the music fits perfectly. It's one of my favorite movies ever made and this does it complete justice 15/10*
What do you all think about the Gladiator movie? Personally, It's one of my favorite films of all time. If you did enjoy the video, consider giving it a like. It would mean a lot to support the channel!
we enjoy those old movies, because they were made with heart and moral value and respect. Current movies are made for money and no respect to the man's strength as a leader, they put women above men.
@@ecod7r I’m quite irritated and upset they are in discussion about making a sequel there is absolutely no reason for a sequel in my opinion especially in this day and age leave this masterpiece to it’s original.
Gladiator is definitely one of my favorite movies. Russell Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix were amazing throughout the whole movie. I actually think that this movie got me interested of going into the film industry. That and the constant terrible movies that have been produced lately, 😢. But one day, I hope to be a part of the change, that I know will come.
This movie means so much for me. It helped so much in my life and gave me a different perspective of life. I used to be angry and react almost at the ones who wronged me and time after time watching this movie knowing all the lines by heart, I learned so much. How to become a more relaxed person and endure the outcome of whatever happens to calculate my thoughts and always react while relaxed, but not only that. This movie taught so many things. Besides the great acting, the great shots and the dialogue, and OMG, the soundtrack.
Oh my God ! Such strengthen of character , such glorious destiny , such valour and purpose, such great sense of duty. Such a divine mandate. ❤ Get's me all the time. For some reason, Gladiator gives me or makes me realise all the time of our greater purpose in life even upto death. That's the best way I can put it in words - otherwise I have no words. Eternally epic - Love from Zambia ❤🇿🇲
These are killer edits, if any of you haven't seen the hostiles one brought me here out-fuckin-standing. You captured the essence of the movies in both man good job!
I know it's not how this scene goes in the movie, but I am especially touched by the short scene here where Maximus touches the soil and looks at the old war dog. The way the dog looks at him, this dog that has seen the same horrors as him. This dog that bears the same scars as him. This dog that knows this soil as well as him. A short glimpse of mutual understanding, of respect, and piety.
Oscar committee has a simple principle : Select the best movie that has been submitted/recommended by groups/lobbies. If you expected Oscars to go in search of good movies/actors/directors, thats poor thinking. Ridley Scott probably did not lobby hard.
the Oscars are Shite.....full of rubbish.....only need to look at Val Kilmer in Tombstone not winning an Oscar to be beaten by some nonsense......Ban it....
I believe the director of Traffic won that year. He was nominated for 2 films. Along with Ridley Scott for Gladiator and Ang Lee for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Gladiator, Traffic, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon were all great films. My favorite of the 3 was Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Anyone going through a heartbreak or anything that's tearing you apart. Don't worry. Take it day by day. Keep on moving. You got this! The world is your oyster, and you're the pearl."
This movie is so touching, authentic, allows the viewers/ listeners is love for his love one, his loyalty where it lies and his strength....this movie moved me to the point of tears. Great actor, great lessons of love ...very played out in a prophetic light.
For the short bit Richard Harris was in the movie. I personally believe was some of the greatest acting done by any character ever. Whether minor or major role. His voice alone sends shivers let alone the sublime lines they gave him. Absolute magic.
One of the most beautiful movies I have ever seen. I have seen it over 30 times. A simple MASTERPIECE. This is what our age needs!! ALL GLORY TO GLADIATOR!! Take me back to that time, let me die in glory!!!! HAIL!!!!!
ive seen the movie countless times, and i just realized at 1:04, Maximus calls Caesar by his given name. that goes to show the comfortable and almost familial relationship they had.
One of my most rapid subs. This film hits very personally to me as well, I too am a stoic and a great admirer of Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, and Epictetus. Glory to you, brother. I look forward to seeing your other work and future achievements with great enthusiasm. ”A blazing fire makes flame and brightness out of everything that is thrown into it.” -Marcus Aurelius
Thank you very much, my fellow Stoic traveler. I'm glad you enjoyed this! More to come, and if you're interested, check out the description or my channels tab on my UA-cam page, there you'll find my second channel which is just called "Escathon", where I'll be posting quite a bit more Stoicism content, one releasing on the coming days.
@@marcuskeil420 Indeed. I am both a Stoic & a Follower of Christ. And since I am both, I believe it isn't enough to say you believe in the Son of Man, you must attempt to walk his path. In whatever way that presents itself in your individual journey. Much like the Early Christians did.
I watched this as a kid, younger than 10, under a wooden framed couch side table late at night while the adults watched this new movie at the time. Had to crawl quietly to get under the table so they wouldn't notice. Intrigue and trauma are what I got from that night. Ever since, it has been one of my favorite movies. Everything about it was phenomenal. Sheet mightve been a big influence on my life when I think about it now.
How much I love this movie! When it first came out I watched it with my sister! It was epic and that song at the end we just got stuck in there forever!! My sister was murdered two years later and I think I've never managed to set myself free of rage like the song chanted at the end of the movie nor could I ever find my way through fields of peace that are able to reunite us again!
Brilliant edit man! I forgot how sad but epic this movie is. It’s one of my favourites. It has a great story and you were able to capture it in 6 minutes. 👏
A few movies make me feel proud to be a masculine man. This is one of them as well as 300 & a few others. Keep going fellas, be the difference in this world.
When I'm sad and have too much free time in modern life, I listen to this video on UA-cam as a ritual, which lifts me from the dead and gives me the strength to move forward. The best movie, along with *Braveheart*. The Hollywood icon is this film. Maximus' words are engraved in my soul.
I thought there will be no movies like this ever made after watching gladiator but just saw promised land with nicklsons mind-blowing acting .there is still hope , good movies are still being made which evoke a good emotion
Watching this and getting goosebumps man, makes a grown man emotional how much passion and pride this shows.. What a real man looks like, love this movie
Best movie ever, Maximus is the man every real man will want to be. Lucilla: Is Rome worth one good man's life? We believed it once. Make us believe it again. He was a soldier of Rome. Honor him. Gracchus: Who will help me carry him? nice video.
Saw a quote the other day and I feel like it fits this movie perfectly “A king stood upon his throne with no heir so called forth his servants His finest general His younger brother His sisters son And all his advisors kneeled before him He stood silent and judged each one accordingly finally he stopped and went “Step forward plate-bearer” His servant who stood at the door looked up and stood shocked “Come! come!” Said the king Carefully and cautiously he eased forward till he was at the kings feet he kneeled and king raised him took off his crown and placed it within his hands “It’s I should be kneeling to you now!” The king remarked The young servant scoffed “But my lord I don’t want the crown I don’t know what to do with such power” The king smiled and whispered into his ear “That is why you are the only one deserving of it”
Great fiction. But in real life this servant is as good as dead. Power is not a joke or poetry, but real as fuck. The crown will destroy the bearer if he is not wise, brave… and lucky
90s holliwood movie fiction. Being lowest in the hiererchy does not mean you will be just when you are on the top, it just means that you're at the bottom. If you're placed to the top you will have to navigate a responsibility you have no experience in. This is romantic but not true. However, if you find someone exceptional in the bottom of the hiererchy they should be given the chance of proving themselves to the top - as all others. Would require a lot of learning and reflections even if you have potential though.
I'll be honest, this edit made me cry real tears more than this movie itself ever did. Sure, Richter's "Nature of Daylight" can make anything more emotionally impactful, but the story within this movie hits a part of me that weeps for what is truly most meaningful within the brief time we all have as humans on this Earth. Our families, loved ones, and sense of duty to provide and protect them against those who wouldn't blink at the idea of extinguishing them to further their own gains. Excellent work.
Ce film est le meilleur jamais produit après 2000... The actors, the scenario, the score...Perfection in entertainement! Je pleure encore a chaque fois et même mon fils pleure.❤
One of the most greatest movies ever made in my opinion. The story, the actors all flow beautifully together and Russel as well as Joquin out done them selves with their superb acting. ❤

Amazing movie and absolutely the greatest movie to me.I watched 15 times.Russel was brilliant
Every now and then Hollywood gets a film out to send a message that's pure, to remind people that history can teach us more than we think

But life goes on; hang in there. I didn't believe it a year ago but it is true that time heal all wounds.
That "Let me go home" always breaks me
We all want to go home. They've taken this. Corporate Commodus world will end like this film
so far to go back..
He was more a slave in the army rather than as a gladiator. He found freedom and peace dying. That's the true meaning of this movie in my opinion.
No home now

As a son, I've grown to extremely understand Commodus more.
Life is lived forward, understood backwards 💯
I can watch this movie over and over again and not get bored!
Likewise!
Same here. I even watch the movies Troy and Alexander in awe every time I watch them.
@@samouchannel Same here
The depth of character between Marcus and The general takes my breath away.
When I was going thru the hardest moment of my life, my father said to me: "Fight, son, fight, fight! Don't give up!" And I didn't gave up. So guys, if you get through some hard times, DON'T GIVE UP. They'll eventually pass. Don't. Give. Up!
Win lose or draw never stop fighting, fighting is what saves our life, if not it saves our soul. I can die but will never give up my soul. Fight to the end, no matter the outcome, you win, even if you die. Better to die fighting than to live running. What you do n life lives in eternity, better words never spoken. We all die, how you die is your choice.
I have to admit, this movie made me weep. The most honourable stands of all time. Men understand.
“What we do in life, echoes in eternity.”
“Death smiles at us all, all a man can do, is smile back.”
“STRENGTH & HONOUR.”
"Now We Are Free..."
All... words to live by
"Strength and Honor" 👍

Yes my brother we are free and we shall meet again but not yet not yet
My father Luigi is from Roma and growing up he would play this movie all the time. I would watch with him, he’s watched it over 20 times . Ti amo papà ❤️ the best movie ever made
I respect this. Probably watched it over 20 times as well at this point. Such a wonderful film.
Does he know mario and yoshi ?
Sounds like a good man.
This gets me every time.
What we do in life echoes in eternity
A man’s ideals live forever ❤️
1. "A MAN'S LIFE IS A WAR BETWEEN WHO HE IS, AND WHO HE WANTS TO BE”
2. "WHEN A MAN LACKS PURPOSE IN HIS LIFE, HE DISTRACTS HIMSELF WITH PLEASURE”
3. “WE MUST ALL SUFFER FROM ONE OF TWO PAINS: THE PAIN OF DISCIPLINE OR THE PAIN OF REGRET", CHOOSE WISELY
4. "CIRCUMSTANCES DON'T MAKE THE MAN, THEY ONLY REVEAL HIM TO HIMSELF AND OTHERS"
5. "WE CANNOT CHOOSE OUR EXTERNAL CIRCUMSTANCES, BUT WE CAN ALWAYS CHOOSE HOW WE RESPOND TO THEM"
6. "THE WORTH OF A MAN IS MEASURED BY THE WORTH OF WHAT HE VALUES"
Wow 💯💯💯

7. “WHAT WE DO IN LIFE ECHOES IN ETERNITY”
when he grabs the dirt while the dog looks at him is my favorite clip. It really portrays his trust with mother nature and the dogs recognition. I believe that is the commonality between humans and animals, the connection and trust with the earth.
I like that

One of best movies ever, stoicism at its best.
Well said!
@@Igor-my6ml 💪❤️✊continue bro you will see changes and better life !
Not just Stoicism but a superb showcase of original ethnic-European faith, which is embodied in Maximus.
Maximus commanded respect through his principles and actions. Commodus commanded obedience through fear to fuel his ego even though he got what he wanted briefly he was still a wanker. MASTERPIECE. Great edit BTW.
Well said. Many leaders and in fact whole societies command through fear these days. And it is usually not fear of physical violence, but a palpable fearsome energy that tells people to stay in line, don't upset the apple cart, and being an outcast is worse than death.
As someone that has been (and probably still is) an outcast, no it is not. As a Stoic, I see every hardship I have endured as an opportunity to learn. And what I have learned is that people may be kept in line by fear, but they yearn for people & ideas that are unmovable and unbreakable in the face of whatever storm comes. Make sure your deeds align with your principles, and if they do: nothing made by man can stop you.
Thank you very much, Lewis!
Commodus was not a leader
Yup
After editing, this movie are more likely to a story which describes a man how to go home. So epic!
I think this is the best short summary of the film I have ever seen and the music fits perfectly. It's one of my favorite movies ever made and this does it complete justice 15/10*
What do you all think about the Gladiator movie? Personally, It's one of my favorite films of all time.
If you did enjoy the video, consider giving it a like. It would mean a lot to support the channel!
we enjoy those old movies, because they were made with heart and moral value and respect. Current movies are made for money and no respect to the man's strength as a leader, they put women above men.
@@ecod7r I’m quite irritated and upset they are in discussion about making a sequel there is absolutely no reason for a sequel in my opinion especially in this day and age leave this masterpiece to it’s original.
Great movie. The Gladiator and Man on fire are 2 of my favorite movies.
Great editing & song thank you for the reminder one the most greatest movie I've ever watched
Gladiator is definitely one of my favorite movies. Russell Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix were amazing throughout the whole movie. I actually think that this movie got me interested of going into the film industry. That and the constant terrible movies that have been produced lately, 😢. But one day, I hope to be a part of the change, that I know will come.
This movie means so much for me. It helped so much in my life and gave me a different perspective of life. I used to be angry and react almost at the ones who wronged me and time after time watching this movie knowing all the lines by heart, I learned so much. How to become a more relaxed person and endure the outcome of whatever happens to calculate my thoughts and always react while relaxed, but not only that. This movie taught so many things. Besides the great acting, the great shots and the dialogue, and OMG, the soundtrack.
Brother, we are here for you
Gladiator is legendary. Your choice in scenes and the calm, slowness in the music is beautifully done 🙌🏼 Very nice video!
Truly a legendary movie, and thank you for the compliment! Very much appreciate your support!
@@EscathonEditsit really is fantastic the edit you made, great work
Oh my God ! Such strengthen of character , such glorious destiny , such valour and purpose, such great sense of duty. Such a divine mandate. ❤
Get's me all the time. For some reason, Gladiator gives me or makes me realise all the time of our greater purpose in life even upto death.
That's the best way I can put it in words - otherwise I have no words.
Eternally epic - Love from Zambia ❤🇿🇲
These are killer edits, if any of you haven't seen the hostiles one brought me here out-fuckin-standing. You captured the essence of the movies in both man good job!
I know it's not how this scene goes in the movie, but I am especially touched by the short scene here where Maximus touches the soil and looks at the old war dog. The way the dog looks at him, this dog that has seen the same horrors as him. This dog that bears the same scars as him. This dog that knows this soil as well as him. A short glimpse of mutual understanding, of respect, and piety.
And great comradery two warriors who honor and respect eachother even more then most men
Death smiles at us all. But all a man can do is smile back” my No1 minute of all time. It’s a men’s man’s movie.
Still puzzles me why Ridley Scott didn't win an oscar for best director for this masterpiece.
Only the logos knows!
Too violent. Violent America is hypocritical...
Oscar committee has a simple principle : Select the best movie that has been submitted/recommended by groups/lobbies. If you expected Oscars to go in search of good movies/actors/directors, thats poor thinking. Ridley Scott probably did not lobby hard.
the Oscars are Shite.....full of rubbish.....only need to look at Val Kilmer in Tombstone not winning an Oscar to be beaten by some nonsense......Ban it....
I believe the director of Traffic won that year. He was nominated for 2 films. Along with Ridley Scott for Gladiator and Ang Lee for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Gladiator, Traffic, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon were all great films. My favorite of the 3 was Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Anyone going through a heartbreak or anything that's tearing you apart. Don't worry. Take it day by day. Keep on moving. You got this! The world is your oyster, and you're the pearl."
This movie is so touching, authentic, allows the viewers/ listeners is love for his love one, his loyalty where it lies and his strength....this movie moved me to the point of tears. Great actor, great lessons of love ...very played out in a prophetic light.
“Your fault as a son, is my failure as a father.” Wow.
This must be the best Gladiator tribute I have seen, so many emotions coming from your genius work ❤️
Gladiator is one of my all time favorite movies! Thank you very much!
TRUTH!! Agreed!
For the short bit Richard Harris was in the movie. I personally believe was some of the greatest acting done by any character ever. Whether minor or major role. His voice alone sends shivers let alone the sublime lines they gave him. Absolute magic.
Да, Ричард Харрис очень талантлив был. Светлая память.😢🙏🌹🌹🌹🌹
I loved Richard Harris. He was always brilliant.
I can't believe how far from this cinema has fallen....
I truly think the only good thing about Gladiator 2 is to make us understand how good and impossible to replicate was Gladiator
This is one of the greatest film edits I have ever seen. The timing and placement of the scenes are flawless. Thank you, this was simply remarkable.
One of the most beautiful movies I have ever seen. I have seen it over 30 times. A simple MASTERPIECE. This is what our age needs!! ALL GLORY TO GLADIATOR!! Take me back to that time, let me die in glory!!!! HAIL!!!!!
This film captures so much of the mindset and sociological makeup of how it was during Emperor Marcus' time. I miss the old days in so many ways...
ive seen the movie countless times, and i just realized at 1:04, Maximus calls Caesar by his given name. that goes to show the comfortable and almost familial relationship they had.
He was the only who knew the glory of the 19th legion was in that small hill near Rome. Why did my family die.
You are aware this isnt Julius Caesar right? This is Marcus Aurelius, Caesar was the Latin word for emperor.
@@PoffHistory yes I was using his title to.make that point
@@gilraine1225 Ah k
One of my most rapid subs. This film hits very personally to me as well, I too am a stoic and a great admirer of Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, and Epictetus. Glory to you, brother. I look forward to seeing your other work and future achievements with great enthusiasm.
”A blazing fire makes flame and brightness out of everything that is thrown into it.” -Marcus Aurelius
Thank you very much, my fellow Stoic traveler. I'm glad you enjoyed this! More to come, and if you're interested, check out the description or my channels tab on my UA-cam page, there you'll find my second channel which is just called "Escathon", where I'll be posting quite a bit more Stoicism content, one releasing on the coming days.
Now imagine what the early martyrs of Christendom had to endure and die for, for believing in a man who was called the son of God…
@@marcuskeil420 Indeed. I am both a Stoic & a Follower of Christ. And since I am both, I believe it isn't enough to say you believe in the Son of Man, you must attempt to walk his path. In whatever way that presents itself in your individual journey. Much like the Early Christians did.
Understand Colton’s
I watched this as a kid, younger than 10, under a wooden framed couch side table late at night while the adults watched this new movie at the time. Had to crawl quietly to get under the table so they wouldn't notice. Intrigue and trauma are what I got from that night. Ever since, it has been one of my favorite movies. Everything about it was phenomenal. Sheet mightve been a big influence on my life when I think about it now.
Not everyone didn't notice but shhhh here some popcorn
There are movies that mark an era, this is one of them!
This here is a masterpiece one of a kind, enternal. Strengh and honor
How much I love this movie! When it first came out I watched it with my sister! It was epic and that song at the end we just got stuck in there forever!! My sister was murdered two years later and I think I've never managed to set myself free of rage like the song chanted at the end of the movie nor could I ever find my way through fields of peace that are able to reunite us again!
May she rest in peace 🙏 ❤
@Flowsy_gg Thank you 🌹
Brilliant edit man! I forgot how sad but epic this movie is. It’s one of my favourites. It has a great story and you were able to capture it in 6 minutes. 👏
Thank you man! Its surely a great movie... no... actually, not great, it's fantastic! Love the movie! And I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
Strength and honour, we are all born with it, how many of us live it….!
incredible edits. I felt this entire movie in 6 and a half minutes.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed.
A few movies make me feel proud to be a masculine man. This is one of them as well as 300 & a few others. Keep going fellas, be the difference in this world.
When I'm sad and have too much free time in modern life, I listen to this video on UA-cam as a ritual, which lifts me from the dead and gives me the strength to move forward. The best movie, along with *Braveheart*. The Hollywood icon is this film. Maximus' words are engraved in my soul.
made me cry 3 times today more emotions felt in this 6 minutes than my entire life
Damn!
This has to be the best edit of my favourite movie. Reminds me of everything that is so great about it. Made me very emotional, thank you.
You're very much welcome, I'm glad it was worth your time. It's also my favorite movie!
I thought there will be no movies like this ever made after watching gladiator but just saw promised land with nicklsons mind-blowing acting .there is still hope , good movies are still being made which evoke a good emotion
Watching this and getting goosebumps man, makes a grown man emotional how much passion and pride this shows.. What a real man looks like, love this movie
“What we do alive echos to the eternity”
Best quote I ever seen before !!!!
In life not alive, 🙏
Best movie ever, Maximus is the man every real man will want to be.
Lucilla:
Is Rome worth one good man's life? We believed it once. Make us believe it again. He was a soldier of Rome. Honor him.
Gracchus:
Who will help me carry him?
nice video.
“Life is cruel, why should the afterlife be any different”
The second movie is now the best successor of a film in the last two decades
this is beautifully done. Putting Max Richter on Gladiator is a killer edit.
Thank you a lot! I thought it was very fitting.
Saw a quote the other day and I feel like it fits this movie perfectly
“A king stood upon his throne with no heir so called forth his servants
His finest general
His younger brother
His sisters son
And all his advisors kneeled before him
He stood silent and judged each one accordingly finally he stopped and went
“Step forward plate-bearer”
His servant who stood at the door looked up and stood shocked
“Come! come!”
Said the king
Carefully and cautiously he eased forward till he was at the kings feet he kneeled and king raised him took off his crown and placed it within his hands
“It’s I should be kneeling to you now!”
The king remarked
The young servant scoffed
“But my lord I don’t want the crown I don’t know what to do with such power”
The king smiled and whispered into his ear
“That is why you are the only one deserving of it”
Yes but when Alexander the Great was asked to whom his kingdom should be given he replied “Give it to the Strong “
Great fiction. But in real life this servant is as good as dead. Power is not a joke or poetry, but real as fuck. The crown will destroy the bearer if he is not wise, brave… and lucky
90s holliwood movie fiction. Being lowest in the hiererchy does not mean you will be just when you are on the top, it just means that you're at the bottom. If you're placed to the top you will have to navigate a responsibility you have no experience in. This is romantic but not true. However, if you find someone exceptional in the bottom of the hiererchy they should be given the chance of proving themselves to the top - as all others. Would require a lot of learning and reflections even if you have potential though.
@@Ikaros23 Fiction?
Just 1 example:
Adolf Hitler.
Or much much bigger:
Jesus Christ.
That is beautiful
When I think of my dad all I picture is the gladiator he reminds me so much of him .
You will see your Dad again...but not yet.
Wonderful response.
Strong father ❤
I'll be honest, this edit made me cry real tears more than this movie itself ever did. Sure, Richter's "Nature of Daylight" can make anything more emotionally impactful, but the story within this movie hits a part of me that weeps for what is truly most meaningful within the brief time we all have as humans on this Earth. Our families, loved ones, and sense of duty to provide and protect them against those who wouldn't blink at the idea of extinguishing them to further their own gains. Excellent work.
Ce film est le meilleur jamais produit après 2000...
The actors, the scenario, the score...Perfection in entertainement!
Je pleure encore a chaque fois et même mon fils pleure.❤
The transformation of something so gruesome into something of gentle beauty is a true masterpiece
Truly the best movie ever made. No matter how many times I watch it, I always get chills.
Maximus is the man within us that we all truly are.
Or can be
Only if we seek to be him, otherwise we will be corrupted
the one and only gladiator movie. No sequels
You captured the emotion and beauty of this entire movie in under 7 minutes. Well done.
The best and once in a lifetime masterpiece from all the actors in it and director Ridley Scott,music composer and writer.
Beautiful that Olly Reed chose the Best Film ever to make his legendary exit. What he did in life echoes in eternity.
An all-time masterpiece of cinema
One of the most greatest movies ever made in my opinion. The story, the actors all flow beautifully together and Russel as well as Joquin out done them selves with their superb acting. ❤
This fits so well it's perfect and the scenes you chose are perfect it's just perfect all around honestly. It's a masterpiece
Thank you Steven, and respect to you my fellow Clone Trooper!
