Good assessment. People forget that most of these gladiators are captured soldiers from defeated battles against Rome. Although it's true that to fight in the Colosseum you had to be some of the best bunch of Gladiators, many still died during the games and didn't fight as a team when Lucius tried Maximusing them together. Lucius even mentioned that he was no General so his experience or somewhat lack thereof comes into play, saved only by his father's genes.
Praetorians are trained in Roman tactics while when the rush happened, Lucius was not leading them and directing them. They were just bumrushing the Praetorian formation where they acted dumbfounded when they were being charged.
It was decent, good is Gladiator. Everything felt a bit rushed to some degree since the runtime is shorter than the first movie. The audio sounded horrible on the sword clashing for some reason in IMAX.
Which ones? I only see Astrid as a black (mixed) but she looks fine in the screenshots. Her skin is a shade pale.
Ah corruption, it's only corruption if the left does it and nothing wrong when WE do it. Their excuse? Why you hate wahmen? It's a wonder how society survives let a lone an empire with so much corruption taking place. Oh well, eventually when this destroys the nation within is just the human aspect and how history flows. No one this type of stuff just repeats no matter the timeline.
Funny thing is he won't run again for senate. That means the findings must be damning and he doesn't want it released.
But the right HATE diversity (especially the equity part) therefore goes against God's creation.
They allude to it. Saying women should be kept far away from battle and the men are supposed to do the dirty work. What is a woman to do then but wait at home, do nothing? They'd be making dem sandwiches and patching the hubby up after giving the ravishing smecks he rightly thinks he deserves after a hard fought battle.
The lot of them seem to be complaining about the same issue. If you watch enough of them it sort of become formulaic on the dream movie they want to see.
True but there are still house seats being contested with very close margins.
