GLADIATOR SEQUEL | RIDLEY SCOTT / PARAMOUNT

[LeonardoTheVinchi]

Is there a chance that HaoYuToys/HHModel (whatever their name is) will redo their Maximus figure? Don't think anybody cares about the second movie's protagonist but I think Maximus would still sell. They could do a 2.0 on a seamless body like they did with Achilles. Although they seem to be slowing down recently

Gladiator: Maximus
Gladiator II: Second movie's protagonist

Tells you all you need to know right there doesn't it, lol.

Maxipadimus?

But then Maximus himself has for a decade lived by the creed "what we eat in life lingers for eternity."

 

[Solidus]

In my mind, this movie is a prequel to Training Day.

I eventually saw this for the first and probably only time.

With its deviation from history I think the original worked better as a standalone where you can pretend everything worked out for the better after Maximus's death and Marcus Aurelius' dream that was Rome was indeed realised. Now if you watch Gladiator II it pulls a Star Wars Sequel Trilogy on all your hopes and dreams.
