I missed these but probably bought the Harry Turtledove books next to it where a Roman Legion gets witchy-pood into an alternate-Earth Byzantine Empire so Turtledove could reuse all his grad school reading assignments.

1980s mall bookstores were a world undreamed of.

B. Dalton and Waldenbooks were amazing to me in the 80s, and the book covers back then....

Lol.  Fair enough. But as small as Arnold makes Stallone look, Stallone would make Crow look that small. 
 

And this is not the body of a dude on roids or hgh. Definitely doesn’t have that stomach. Just your normal 35-40 year old who lift some and lost weight

300 was a different story probably plus a lot of cgi

You're acting like she was Batman's mom or something - hell, she was a wed Dane, not a dead Wayne.

And if she showed up on my doorstep and needed a place to say, I'm not turning her down one bit, although I'd be slightly confused since nobody expects a Danish imposition.

I should move to Denmark.

If you were to type Brenda Strong into Reddit you'd see her competition is quite fierce.(something I discovered last week by happenstance)  Sue Ellen Mischkie has still got it.

Now carry on.

Yeah. You read that somewhere.

Gladiator II releases trailer.

 

[Guest]

Tom Berenger looks pretty damned good for 74.

[Parliament 14,260]

Is that the real trailer?  Because it looks like CGI shlock.

[CooterBrown 18,012]

That doesn’t look remotely real.

I'm guessing that Gladiator II won't actually include Viper vs The Mountain II

I never said it would be good.  It's more than a stretch to even think it will be passable.  All the good characters were killed off.  If they were gonna take another shot at the apple they should have scripted up something for Lucky Jack.

Wut? That's not a real trailer, man. It's painfully obvious.

It's a fan/concept trailer. It says so right in the first line of the description.

I wish they’d make the batshit original treatment for the sequel. Maximus is resurrected and becomes an immortal who has Forrest Gump style adventures throughout history and ends up working at the Pentagon. Really.

Only if 1) they’d disconnect it somehow from Gladiator. Make it clear it’s a cheesy What If or Spoof. I will riot if they cheapen the movie and 2) they get the Santa version of Crowe to reprise the roll.
