Poll: Braveheart or Gladiator?

"Fight, and you may die. Run, and you may live...at least for awhile. But lying in your bed, dying in your home, would you be willing to trade, *all* the days, from that 'till this, for one chance; just one chance to tell them that they may take our lives, but they may never take....

 

[dukdukgoos]

Both sucked.

Try these instead:

Lawrence of Arabia
Dr. Zhivago
Ran

 

[BaDNaN0TH0N]

well lets look here, how many of you had tears in your eyes when maximus died. (not too many i would think)
how many had tears in your eyes when wallace screams freedom in the end? (yup that was me!)

question answered
plus the BH soudntrak is way better than the G soundtrak, and wallace can whoop mximus's ass anyday

Hey are you kidding, Maximus had one of the best deaths in movie history. By the way any guy that cries for a movie is f@g!

maybe when you are older, say 16, or 17, you will have differing views on what the world really expects of males

True. To relate, or show any emotion is a sign of weakness, right? We should just be our adolescent, apathetic selves.

...oops! Sorry, I'm neither.

hey, don't be trying to slide in on my sarcasm niche

Both were good movies, but Braveheart was better.

 

[ggavinmoss]

Braveheart was better.

-geoff

 

[Kanalua]

Braveheart, definately

 

[abracadabra1]

something about Maximus that definately captivated me.
don't get me wrong, wallace was amazing too...but maximus really caught my eye,

 

[Hanpan]

Personally i though braveheart was quite a bit better. I wasn't that impressed by Gladiator.

 

[zimu]

they were both really amazing, not too different.
i'd stick with braveheart though...

girl hands him the flower. >>

man i dunno why there's even a poll here, Gladiator was a kitten of a plot written up by 9 year old little girls compared to the complexities of Braveheart...just because Gladiator is so recent with its success and (undeserved) Oscar, it doesn't deserve any more nodd of respect than <insert any Adam Sandler movie title here>

 

[Bleeding Jawa]

Both are rip-offs of Sparticus, but are still good movies.

Gladiator has some really awesome action sequences &amp; Ridley Scott is my second favorite director (behind David Lean), BUT...Braveheart has a stronger story behind it and a much more emotion-driven lead character which makes it so much better for repeat viewings.

I loved Gladiator the first time I saw it and I've been hailing Russell Crowe as the &quot;next-big-thing&quot; ever since I saw LA Confidential the first time, but the problem is that the Gladiator story itself isn't all that interesting the 2nd &amp; 3rd time. I can watch Braveheart over &amp; over again. (Sparticus too).

well, some people apparently concern themselves with script, casting, acting, cinemetography, etc., all of which Gladiator had in just the right amount

just because you didn't like the story doesn't mean it didn't provide the ingredients for a great achievement

 

[777joee]

I love them both. But I like the ledgend of William Wallace
