Gladiator was a great movie.

We will likely see this one, too.

We’ll see. The sound track certainly doesn’t come anywhere close to the majesty of the original.

Some great tracks on that one.

I listen to the longer ones occasionally.

I have so little interest in anything Hollywood puts out.

I agree. Those spoiled Tinseltown lefties need to learn that their actions have consequences.

Yeah and I’m sure there were lots of Chileans in ancient Rome.

It's almost as ridiculous as having black Denzel Washington playing Hannibal. I like Denzel but it's a myth that Hannibal was black.

Looks interesting, but doubt it can match the first one, except in optics.

Yeah I’m sure they didn’t have rap music in ancient Rome.
