Odysseus, Sean Bean's character, was the main hero of The Odyssey, sequel to this story. Odysseus's ten year struggle of misadventures trying to return home from the Trojan War. Sea Monsters, Cyclops, Sirens, witches, the God of the seas, and a voyage to the land of the dead, they all had a hand in trying to stop Odysseus, but he made it home alive. Come to think of it, if Sean Bean had done Odyssey, it might have broke reality.
Yeah. That was well played by the big guy. So realistic. That is how big, massive dudes react, when they realize that their size and agressive behavior doesn't effect on you at all and you are even ready to fight back. That is when you see the fear takes back on them.

Nathan Jones Jones was born in Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. Before his career as a wrestler, Jones was sentenced to 16 years in 1987 at the age of 18 to Boggo Road Gaol for eight armed robberies between 1985 and 1987, two of which occurred in Tasmania. During the robberies, he became one of Australia's most wanted and ended up serving seven years in a maximum-security prison. In 1994, Jones was given one-year work release before being discharged at the age of 25.[4] While in prison, he was introduced to the sport of powerlifting. He is also alleged to have begun taking steroids during this time.[5] Within a short space of time, he became the National Powerlifting Champion of Australia.
He went up to an entire army and asked who else wanted the smoke. An entire army backed down. That's some crazy shit to go down, and im sure it has in the past.

That line Achilles: "that's why no one will remember your name." That line made me realize something. Humanity seeks the answer of what our purpose in life is. I think I finally figured it out. Look around and you see great people be it very good deeds or very bad ones. It seems humanity wants to be remembered no matter what. Wars, leaders, warriors, headstones, inventors, philosophers, writers, authors, actors, artist, and crafters. All have markings or leave evidence of their existence or has information of it. Even serial killers, war lords, and dictators. Even having children seemingly drives us to live on in others or make sure after our passing we are remember after death. Also nearly every culture has a ritual of some kind to remember those that have passed on. Even our money can carry on the likeness or names of those that wanted to be remembered. This line made me realize the reason we are all alike in some way. It seems humans can fear that so much they might even do something drastic to be remembered if they can't make life meaningful enough to be remembered some how in the way they want the most.

Alexander the Great visited the site of Ancient Troy in 334 B.C., as he embarked on his campaign against the Persian Empire, leading a unified Greek Army (Hellenic League). The visit to Troy held both personal and strategic significance for Alexander. On one hand, it fulfilled his long-held desire to pay tribute to his hero Achilles and connect with the glorious past of Greek mythology. On the other hand, the visit served as a powerful symbolic gesture that showcased his intention to unite the Greek world under his rule and carry on the legacy of the legendary heroes. Upon reaching the Tomb of Achilles, Alexander took a moment to pay his respects and acknowledge the greatness of the legendary warrior. Then, Alexander poured oil over the tomb, a customary practice in ancient Greek funerary rituals, symbolizing purification and sanctification. He also placed garlands of flowers and foliage on the tomb, signifying honor and respect for the deceased. Next, Alexander and Hephaestion sacrificed animals, likely horses, to honor the spirits of Achilles and Patroclus. This ritual was meant to appease the souls of the dead and seek their favor. Finally, Alexander is believed to have organized athletic games at the site, following the ancient Greek tradition of hosting such competitions in memory of deceased heroes. By paying homage to Achilles, Alexander was reinforcing his connection to the heroic past and legitimizing his claim to lead the Greek world. After Troy and his first victory at the battle of the Granicus, while leading a unified Greek Army (Hellenic League) to avenge the Persian invasions in Greece 150 years prior, Alexander the Great sent 300 suits of full Persian armour (to honor the legendary last stand of the 300 Spartans in Thermopylae) to Athens, as a votive offering to Goddess Athena, to be hung on the Acropolis. He ordered an inscription to be fixed over them; “Alexander, son of Philip and all the Greeks, present this offering from the spoils taken from the barbarians inhabiting Asia". A statue group, known as the Granicus Monument, was erected by Alexander in the sanctuary of Zeus at Dion. This consisted of bronze statues by Lysippus, of Alexander with twenty-five of his companions who had died in the initial cavalry charge, all on horseback. Alexander the Great is a sacred, immortal, legendary figure for us Greeks. Mostly for uniting all Greek City States and Kingdoms and spreading the unique Hellenic culture to the edges of the world. The rightful descendant of legendary Achilles. Eternal Hellas 🔥🇬🇷
Well, Sparta per se doesn't have a port. One might say that the seaport of Sparta was and still is Gytheion, located about 25 miles to the south, which does definitely not look like what we see on the video. Actually, in a little island called Cranae, a couple of hundred yards off the coast of Gytheion (I imagine the distance was bigger 3 thousand years ago) Paris and Helen spent their first night together before departing for Troy.
Yo creo q es por q es un cobarde realmente su apstiencia fisica es despreciable y su personalidad aborrecible recuerda q dice quisiera ver a un Rey pelear sus propias batallas etc
It's implied a bit that it's because he considers Agamemnon a coward, hence why he mentions "imagine a king who fights his own battles, wouldn't THAT be a sight".
This scene could also be an adaptation for the big screen. I don’t remember very well but I don’t think there ever was a battle like this including Achilles before the Greeks set sail for Troy. I could be wrong From my memory: Achilles was a young man, probably younger than 19 when Odysseus was tasked with the mission of finding the fabled warrior. In the movie Odysseus and Achilles appear to be old friends but in the Iliad the pair had never met prior to the Trojan war. I might be mixing stories here but I’m pretty sure Achilles was hiding (under orders of his mother) amongst a court of young daughters to a Greek king. Odysseus had to come up with a clever trick to get Achilles to reveal his true identity! As the war progressed the whole Agamemnon claiming Achilles’ prized Breseis and the young warrior becoming irate is pretty accurate from what I remember. I can’t think of any other reason why Achilles was fired up at the king so this scene might just be for Hollywood (not making claims)
Honestly, of all the iconic lines in this scene, "He is not my King," is my favorite. Because in that moment Achilles knew it would have been easy for him to simply take the scepter and rule Thessalonica right then and there. But he simply walked away. Refusing the authority for himself while also refusing the honor the man who called upon him.
Nothing in this movie was like in the Iliad. And it would be impossible to do that anyway. If lord of the rings needed 3 movies the Iliad needs at least 5. So, they just make up stuff.
@@jmpalacios There was no Achilles in real life. Lately "we" descovered a guy who most likely is the man who inspired Homer to create Achilles. His name is Piyamaradu. The only guy who wasnt a king but he had his own army but for some reason he was acting for the King of Mycenae, the Greeks. Whose name was Eteoklis and not Agamemnon. Anyway, Homer used to create and characters just to kill them. So the story has a flow. One of them was Hector. The real king of Troy was Paris, whose second name is Alexander. He was not Greek but for some reason he had a greek name.
@@serebbi thanks for the very interesting info. But I wasn’t saying that Achilles existed in real life, I was saying that Achilles entering Troy runs roughshod of Homer’s poems, as not managing to was his great tragedy.
Old king: "BOAGRIUS!!!" Army of the old king: "Les't make noise for our champion, boys" Agamemnon: "ACHILLES!!!" Army of Agamemnon: "shall we tell him that Achille is in hangover?" Seriously, how is possible that every soldier knew that Achilles wasn't with the Army but the king of said army didn't know?
Achilles punctured right through the trap behind the clavicle and into the torso straight to pop the heart, he knew his anatomy. Looks like a really plausible kill.
Achilles takes down their biggest strongest guy in one hit.. walked away without looking back.. walks up to the rest of them and askes if they have anyone substantial in that crowd lol
"Good day for the crows".... Crows are probably one of the smartest animal in the planet. They figured out that when a high mass of humans gather and the walk together in a same direction, as another mass of humans walks towards tham, there will be plenty of food by the end of the day. In other words they learned to anticipate battles in their own way. People "new it was because demons control night creaturs and used them to do witchcraft and all source of black magic and Ahadabakadrabas". "You see that huge flock of crows, just past that mountain son. Means that by the end of the day, death, for meny good men."
First they search the entire camp. Then they send a boy to scour the general landscape for random clues about the whereabouts of a single individual who then has to get dressed for battle and ride all the way to camp. Meanwhile the army and the kings stand in the sun for what would take at least a full day, and the sun never moves in the sky. Such a stupid scene.

Sparta was in it's late early stage of development at the time, still a very local kingdom. Even in 300 they still weren't at their peak. They were hegemons of almost all Greece only after defeating Athens in the aftermath of the Peloponnesian wars.
It happens only in a movie OR The big guy is blind, he fights only with hearing. Has a long sword, a shield also.Still could not ward off a weak man with a short weapon. Pure DRAMA 😂😂😂
You got to hand it to Agamemnon. Even tho he despises Achilles, when the King of Thessaly insulted him, he told him to watch out who he insults, as if he knows that if Achilles knew, he'd probably spear his head.
“That’s why no one will remember your name” I swear to god as a kid it was this exact scene that lit a fire in me it started my obsession with Achilles and Alexander the Great think about it lol Achilles died in his early 30s and Alexander the Great died at 32 but because of what they accomplished we have spoken their names for over 2000 years even more recent times 2pac died at 25 Biggie died at 24 Kurt Cobain Died at 27 imagine how long we will continue to speak their names.

In the movie Odysseus and Achilles appear to be old friends but in the Iliad the pair had never met prior to the Trojan war.
I might be mixing stories here but I’m pretty sure Achilles was hiding (under orders of his mother) amongst a court of young daughters to a Greek king. Odysseus had to come up with a clever trick to get Achilles to reveal his true identity!
As the war progressed the whole Agamemnon claiming Achilles’ prized Breseis and the young warrior becoming irate is pretty accurate from what I remember. I can’t think of any other reason why Achilles was fired up at the king so this scene might just be for Hollywood (not making claims)
Achilles: Is there Noah Else? Is there Noah Else?
Noah Else: You called me? Who are you?
Achilles: Achilles.
Noah Else: You kill ass?
😂😂😂😂😂😂 how come no one has seen this comment😂😂😂😂😂 here's my like on a platter of gold my good sir
Lol
Gold
@@venttelevision “Noah Else” is a long circulated meme …
The most UNDERRATED film ever!
Allow me to introduce you to the (original) Planet Of The Apes.
IS THERE NO ONE ELSE POWERFUL LIND
One of the quickest kills in any one on one battles in any movies lol
A legendary movie❤❤❤❤
What was that little boy's name i can't remember
Honestly, of all the iconic lines in this scene, "He is not my King," is my favorite. Because in that moment Achilles knew it would have been easy for him to simply take the scepter and rule Thessalonica right then and there. But he simply walked away. Refusing the authority for himself while also refusing the honor the man who called upon him.
Agamenon and Menelao are nothing like they were described in Homer's Iliad.
That's the part that really bothers me of this movie.
What about Achilles being killed *INSIDE* Troy, when his great tragedy was that he actually never managed to conquer the city?! :P
Nothing in this movie was like in the Iliad. And it would be impossible to do that anyway. If lord of the rings needed 3 movies the Iliad needs at least 5. So, they just make up stuff.
@@jmpalacios There was no Achilles in real life. Lately "we" descovered a guy who most likely is the man who inspired Homer to create Achilles. His name is Piyamaradu. The only guy who wasnt a king but he had his own army but for some reason he was acting for the King of Mycenae, the Greeks. Whose name was Eteoklis and not Agamemnon.
Anyway, Homer used to create and characters just to kill them. So the story has a flow. One of them was Hector.
The real king of Troy was Paris, whose second name is Alexander. He was not Greek but for some reason he had a greek name.
@@serebbi thanks for the very interesting info. But I wasn’t saying that Achilles existed in real life, I was saying that Achilles entering Troy runs roughshod of Homer’s poems, as not managing to was his great tragedy.
Old king: "BOAGRIUS!!!"
Army of the old king: "Les't make noise for our champion, boys"
Agamemnon: "ACHILLES!!!"
Army of Agamemnon: "shall we tell him that Achille is in hangover?"
Seriously, how is possible that every soldier knew that Achilles wasn't with the Army but the king of said army didn't know?
Because hate him
Achilles punctured right through the trap behind the clavicle and into the torso straight to pop the heart, he knew his anatomy. Looks like a really plausible kill.
Doesn't look deep enough.
You know you’re in trouble when your opponent expends all their energy on a 200 yard dash straight at you to start the fight.
Just realized Achilles stabs the heart with that move 😮
Yup, right through the trap and to the heart
with that beginning quote its kind of sad that we only remember the leaders and not the millions of soldiers lost in all the battles throughout time
This movie was incredible. A very underrated gem.
This is still one of my favorite movies.
"He's not your king? Well f***. Deals off!"
Achilles takes down their biggest strongest guy in one hit.. walked away without looking back.. walks up to the rest of them and askes if they have anyone substantial in that crowd lol
SALAH SATU FILM FAVORIT KU❤
Notice how he stabbed him below his trap muscles for better penetration. Good attention to detail.
Imagine a Boagrius who fights his own Ajax. Wouldn't that be a sight.
Had watched lots of Time..this scene.... But still watching watching🎉🎉❤❤❤
Menelaus: I've seen too many of my men cut down
Hector: Hopefully never again
Paris: I'll change that
"Good day for the crows".... Crows are probably one of the smartest animal in the planet. They figured out that when a high mass of humans gather and the walk together in a same direction, as another mass of humans walks towards tham, there will be plenty of food by the end of the day. In other words they learned to anticipate battles in their own way. People "new it was because demons control night creaturs and used them to do witchcraft and all source of black magic and Ahadabakadrabas". "You see that huge flock of crows, just past that mountain son. Means that by the end of the day, death, for meny good men."
Damn...they don't show the inside the tent scene. Achilles was epic...presumably.
This movie is one of my favorites
I love the story, it's a great masterpiece 😍
damn, Boagrius got slow ass reflexes
No, Achilles got superhuman movements.
Whenever the back of my foot hurts and I walk with a limp, I'll remember your name.
The lip gloss "is there no-one else?" 😂
I didn’t know Billy Beane was a warrior before he managed the Oakland A’s.
"I sent a boy to look for him"
I wish I'd never learned why the Greeks kept boys around smh.
Not just the Greeks.
First they search the entire camp. Then they send a boy to scour the general landscape for random clues about the whereabouts of a single individual who then has to get dressed for battle and ride all the way to camp. Meanwhile the army and the kings stand in the sun for what would take at least a full day, and the sun never moves in the sky. Such a stupid scene.
The two kings act like there friends instead of enemies YOUR BEST FIGHTER VS MINE theres no hate no emotion in this sence for them to be enemies
Wars between states are not about individual emotion. Its not a schoolyard squabble, its about conquest.
@@whynottalklikeapirat yea and if Your gonna conquer a country you shouldn’t be treating it like a game but throughout history war has been a chess board.
two kings
The big guy, "Boagrius," is Nathan Jones. He's been in MANY movies. He's 6' 11" and I'm with the kid ... I wouldn't want to fight him either.
Since your name is "Cicero," I guess we can safely say that the part about nobody remembering your name because of that was incorrect, too. ;)
Old king: "BOAGRIUS!!!"
Agamemnon: "WARDADDY!!!"
Old king: "What?"
Brad Pitt, on a M4A3E8: "kaboom, motherf*ker"
When l was in high school, my mom bought me this movie and Gladiator for Christmas for my interest in the Roman and Greek mythology, although both are Greek history
Gladiators were a Roman thing bro.
Ti nisi moj kralj ...🖐👊
Then I won't force you to be.
Moj kralj je moj Bog ...
A svi ostali ako ih ne budemo slušali če nas ns kraju satrati kao pijune u šahu ...
Achilles: Is there noone else? … IS THERE NOONE ELSE?!!!
Crowd: * Parts *
Indiana Jones: * Looks tired, draws revolver and pulls trigger … *
She's a beast..! Who are you soldier..? Achilles..!
It's crazy how different war is today .this stuff is crazy hand to hand close combat it's nutts
9 min scene for a 9 second fight 😂
Someone aught to edit the part where achilles is running toward Boagrius like that scene from MP and the holy grail 😂
Loved this scene. This is from the extended edition tho, the music is different. I prefered the original one here because the music was more suiting.
The best part about this is Achilles showed up late and hungover!
"Is there no one else?"
"...my mother in law thinks you're very stupid, Achilles!"
"SHE WHAT?"
4:22 And that's why everyone remembers David's name.
Achiles memenangkan setiap pertarungan karna dia mengendalikan nafsu nya sehingga tenang saat bertarung padahal achiles sangat emosi luar biasa aktor nya keren bgt
"You're big! Fought bigger."
The big guy didn't even try to defend himself while Achilles is running towards him. I called this one a fixed match up.. lol
My favorite movie 🎥 all time 🤩💯💪🏽🔥
sparta in 300 🗿 sparta in Troy 🤡
Sparta was in it's late early stage of development at the time, still a very local kingdom. Even in 300 they still weren't at their peak. They were hegemons of almost all Greece only after defeating Athens in the aftermath of the Peloponnesian wars.
D&D, dexterity vs. strength, hit was critical.
Bro i just realized he saved the lives of the other army by fighting and winning. 😂❤
It happens only in a movie OR
The big guy is blind, he fights only with hearing.
Has a long sword, a shield also.Still could not ward off a weak man with a short weapon. Pure DRAMA 😂😂😂
Achilles was really fast as a warrior
You got to hand it to Agamemnon. Even tho he despises Achilles, when the King of Thessaly insulted him, he told him to watch out who he insults, as if he knows that if Achilles knew, he'd probably spear his head.
“That’s why no one will remember your name”
I swear to god as a kid it was this exact scene that lit a fire in me it started my obsession with Achilles and Alexander the Great think about it lol Achilles died in his early 30s and Alexander the Great died at 32 but because of what they accomplished we have spoken their names for over 2000 years even more recent times 2pac died at 25 Biggie died at 24 Kurt Cobain Died at 27 imagine how long we will continue to speak their names. It just makes you wanna leave your mark on the world. The closest you can get to immortality is having your name spoken thousands of years after your bones turn to ash.
