Quo Vadis film - Hibernicus - 11-07-2001
www.quo-vadis.pl<br>
<br>
Some of LEG IX HSPA saw the Hollywood premiere Tuesday night, Nov 6<br>
<br>
I think this film is going to make Galdiator look like a Hallowe'en costume party!<br>

That is a neat web site. Is the film in English or Polish? When will it hit the theaters in USA.<br>

It does look very realistic. Will they release it in the US or am I gonna have to order it off of Amazon after it comes out in DVD. <p></p><i></i>
release date? - Hibernicus - 11-08-2001
Don't know. Might be on HBO after a brief run in theaters.<br>
<br>
It was the most expensive film ever made in Poland.<br>

Hey, how come I didn't get invited to the banquet scenes? I don't remember any of our parties getting like this.<br>
<br>
In the outtakes of Gladiator on the CD, they have some lion/Christian takes that are obviously dummies; I wonder how these lions seems to be really grabbing onto the stuntmen/women? <p>Aulus, Legio XX.

Yeah that would be the Praetorians - since they come across as Nero's SS - the tacky armour (all dark and nasty looking) plays to the Hollyweird stereotype.<br>
<br>
The segmentata worn by the male lead (shown in the first ten minutes!) was by FAR, the best Roman armor I've ever seen depicted in a non-documentary flick.<br>
<br>
... and it was nice that the actors at the premiere could tell the difference(s) between the Newstead and Corbridge types - THAT impressed me...<br>
