	Filmtracks: Gladiator (Hans Zimmer/Lisa Gerrard)
		Gladiator: (Hans Zimmer, Lisa Gerrard, and Klaus Badelt) The sounds of the projects of Hans Zimmer have been becoming increasingly difficult to predict in the past few years.
		The last three tracks on the Gladiator album are a gem of a suite, and interestingly, the only hint of Hans Zimmer in that suite is the bar of thematic material kindly lifted from his own Backdraft score.
		Gladiator: (Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerrard) Hans Zimmer's collaboration with Lisa Gerrard is notable for the expansion of the texture of the music which, in Zimmer's case, is normally considerably more simplified.

	Gladiator - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gladiators (Latin gladiatōrēs, 'swordsmen', from gladius 'sword') were professional fighters in ancient Rome who fought against each other, wild animals, and condemned criminals, sometimes to the death, for the entertainment of spectators.
		Further, since the victorious gladiator would often finish off the loser with a quick, lethal sword blow to the neck, it may be that the thumbs of the crowd would be turned to jab at their own necks, imitating this blow.
		Gladiators who managed to win their freedom - often by request of the audience or sponsor - were given a rudis, a symbolic wooden sword, as a memento.

	Gladiator (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Actor Oliver Reed died in Malta during the filming of Gladiator; as a result, a body double and digitally altered outtake footage of the actor were used in his absence, at an estimated cost of $3 million.
		While Commodus was the only Roman Emperor to fight as a gladiator (discounting reports of Caligula having done the same, as there is no record outside of Suetonius that he ever did so), he was killed by a gladiator, but not in the arena, as the film suggests.
		Gladiator was nominated in 36 individual ceremonies, including the 73rd Academy Awards, the BAFTA Awards and the Golden Globe Awards.

		In Gladiator we can also the beautiful and popular Maltese TV Star and actress Ruth Frendo, who although has a small part, she is totally brilliant and outstanding.
		The modern camera technique contrasts sharply to the brutality of the gladiators actions and blood shed during the movie; and I love the light contrasts thanks to the lenses which most definitely have been used to create a surreal feel to the entire movie.
		"Gladiator" deserves all the awards and great reviews it has received, and for those of you who still haven't gone and watched it – I can assure you that it will be well worth your time and money.

		Russell Crowe's performance in Gladiator is in the shadow of the one by Joaquin Phoenix (Commodus) which shows the sexual ambiguity of his character as well as his moral weaknesses - although, he too, has to pay tribute to some weak lines.
		Gladiator is impressive for its battle scenes shown in all their cruelty - and therefore largely attracts (at least at the cinema where I was) an audience keen on primal sensations.

	Gladiator
		Gladiators (from Latin gladiatores) were both professional and amateur fighters in ancient Rome who fought for the entertainment of its "civilized" spectators.
		Gladiators were trained in special schools called ludi which could be found as commonly as ampitheatres throughout the empire.
		Gladiators were expensive to maintain, train and replace in the event of death, and keeping the most popular of crowd pleasers alive was far more practical than the alternative.

		The story of 'Gladiator' extends from just prior to the death of the great emperor Marcus Aurelius to the death of his son and successor, the dissolute tyrant Commodus.
		'Gladiator' was the biggest big-scale movie surprise of the year 2000: the first ancient epic in more than 30 years, a surprisingly thoughtful action movie that featured excellent performances.

		Gladiator tells the story of Maximus (Russell Crowe), a Roman general whose leadership and dedication have helped expand the Roman Empire to Germany, where we meet him as he prepares to battle the barbarians.
		Gladiator is full of attention to detail in many ways, but rarely takes the opportunity to provide the sorts of small moments that bring characters (even iconic ones) and ideals to full-blooded life.
		I hate to think that the failures of Gladiator might boil down to the fact that it is simply too dignified for its own good, but a case could be made for that point.

	Review: Gladiator (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Gladiator is the kind of movie upon which Hollywood once built its reputation but rarely produces anymore: the spectacle.
		Gladiator weds the heroic scope of movies like Ben-Hur, Spartacus, Braveheart, and Rob Roy with the serpentine political treachery of I, Claudius.
		For New Zealand-born, Australian-bred actor Russell Crowe, Gladiator represents an opportunity to expand his reputation, which was heightened earlier this year by a Best Actor nomination for his portrayal of whistleblower Jeffrey Wigand in Michael Mann's The Insider.

	Gladiator Movie - Film, Weapons, Swords, Armor.
		While not as fluid as the computer work done for, say, Titanic, it's an impressive achievement that will leave you marveling at the glory that was Rome, when you're not marveling at the glory that is Russell Crowe.
		Starring as the heroic general Maximus, Crowe firmly cements his star status both in terms of screen presence and acting chops, carrying the film on his decidedly non-computer-generated shoulders as he goes from brave general to wounded fugitive to stoic slave to gladiator hero.
		Gladiator's plot is a whirlwind of faux-Shakespearean machinations of death, betrayal, power plays, and secret identities (with lots of faux-Shakespearean dialogue ladled on to keep the proceedings appropriately "classical"), but it's all briskly shot, edited, and paced with a contemporary sensibility.

		I then realized that the degeneracy shown on screenâ”Emperor Commodus happily clapping his hands as a gladiator is decapitated, the crowd roaring its bloodlustâ”is too close to some forms of entertainment today, particularly professional wrestling.
		The gladiators of Rome took on certain contrived personalities, and gladiatorial combat was intended to tell some sort of story, just like todayâs equivalent of gladiatorial entertainment.
		Gladiator serves as an object lesson as to what can happen to a society that proceeds down such a violent path.

		The parallels are obvious: Both Hugo Danner and Clark Kent grow up in rural small-town America, possessing powers far beyond the common mortal; both are imbued, from an early age, with a profound sense of fairness and justice; and they hide their respective secrets from the world at large.
		Gladiator is a brave novel that unflinchingly portrays people at their ugliest and pettiest, all the while reflecting on the better worlds that could be were it not for humanity's relentless failings.
		Gladiator itself, though, is a powerful, visionary work—and it spawned an entire subgenre of fantastic fiction.

		The Gladiator looks like the shape of Wranglers to come, and rumor has it that's exactly what it is: a first try at getting the dimensions and shape of the next-generation Wrangler, due around 2006 (partly to meet new safety standards).
		We've been told that the Gladiator retains the classic Jeep live axles, with a similar 4x4 system and length, but with more width for better stability and comfort (the Gladiator is ten inches wider, but we suspect the actual increase will be half that).
		The Gladiator, like the Wrangler, was designed to be produced with either right or left hand drive; the spare is on the side rather than the gate or underneath to help keep a high departure angle for off-roading.

		At one point, again, just like in Gladiator, the action slows down, the noise fades, and the music swells as the viewer is thrown back from observing the fighting in detail to feeling the sadness of the desperate scene.
		Throughout Gladiator, Maximus is seen to bend down, pick up some of the soil and meditively fold it in his hands before fighting.
		What separates Gladiator from being simply a movie about violence and revenge (in the same way that American Beauty is not just a movie about sex and midlife crisis) is that Maximus is being led by a commitment to something that is of greater substance than a desire to avenge the deaths of his family.

		But instead of sand, it was a tidy asphalt surface in Uniontown yesterday, where a military-green robot resembling a large all-terrain vehicle climbed and tumbled over makeshift stacks of wood planks and piles of stone-filled dirt, preening before a crowd uttering "ohs" and "ahs".
		The goal is to build big remote-controlled reconnaissance robots capable of carrying out search-and-discovery missions in potentially hostile areas, to warn soldiers of the dangers ahead, and to protect them from mine fields, craters, trenches, hidden enemies or even greater threats such as chemical, biological or nuclear traps.
		A joint team of CMU researchers, consultants with military-experience and BAE engineers are now tweaking the Gladiator to a "bible-like" set of military requirements and expect to deliver the six prototypes to the Marine Corps by May 2007.
