There is so much I didn't have time to talk about but I covered the big things that stood out to me. What did you think? A worthy sequel or should Ridley have left this one alone?
It's implied in the original. Maximus and Lucilla were in a relationship and he says something about Lucius being like a son to him etc. You could make an argument it's a complete rewrite of "history" too though
@ did they? I never caught that at all for me they change the story to say that Lucious was maximum son all along to fit the story for part 2.This imply that Maximus was unfaithful to his wife? That seems out of character for him or if they were in a relationship it was when they was young but and she hide the kid from him? I thought he was never his child. I assume he care for the kid since he killed his.
@JRosa-pk4ze It would be a tight timeline for it not to have been Maximus being unfaithful to his wife. Hiding the child from him does make sense to me though if it was true. I have to go back and watch the first one again to see if this logic holds up when put under the microscope

Son? That’s news to me. They never mention that in the original one.
