Gladiator II: Ridley Scott's Kingdom of Heaven

If you haven't seen the previews for Ridley Scott's newest epic Kingdom of Heaven during the NCAA Tournament, you're missing out. Any fan of Gladiator will be pleased to see what looks like the second coming of Maximus. Granted, the story is set a thousand years later in time and on a separate continent, but the general themes seem to be the same: heroism, duty, honor, valor. And magnificently depicted battle scenes that have made Ridley Scott famous.

Check out the trailer here at the movie website.

Am I the only one who thought Gladiator sucked? I mean, the violence was sweet. But the characters and were idiotic...a watered down version of Braveheart.

For a real gladiator movie, check out Stanley Kubrick's Sparticus. Now that's good stuff.
