That's exciting. Hopefully it has as good a soundtrack as the first. I still listen to it sometimes while I work.

Will do that today, thanks for the suggestion.

It's below the first one now, according to the page's update. Not that rottentomatoes is super accurate on movie quality anyways.

I suspected it would drop after I posted this. The trailer didn't entice me and felt off with its music choice

I can not imagine a sequel to Gladiator being as good as the original...but, damn, imagine if it was. That first movie is a classic.

This is encouraging!

I hope it's not the plotline that they tried to get on the road years ago, where Maximus is sent back from the dead by the gods to return Rome to a republic. That would suck.

Unless they’re doing a fantastic job of hiding the true plot in the trailers, that’s not the case

Def doesn't sound like they went that route at all.

Good, but surprising. I'm glad Scott pulled it off. When I first heard they were making a sequel, I groaned and thought it was a stupid idea.

Glad I was wrong.
