Damnit Ridley, why you gotta give in and ruin a great stand alone timeless movie? I’m not watching this garbage.

My first thought was did they really fill the coliseum with water to simulate water battles? Even before the battle Rhino lol.

It doesn't really matter, but I'd be curious to know how the ancient Romans created a watertight seal in a structure the size of the Coliseum. |

I actually worked on a rhino test for the first Gladiator. I thought we just hadn't gotten the job, then saw the movie and no one had done those shots. I heard later It got cut for budget reasons.

Kingdom of Heaven was crap that turned the good guys (Crusaders) into the bad guys.
He has been missing for years.

The ancients were far smarter and better craftsmen than we credit them for. You cant fit a blade of grass between the blocks of the pyramids. The Sphinx is somewhere between 4500 and 9500 years old.. You think something approx 2500 years newer on the low side couldn't or wouldn't be able to made water tight?

I don’t know for sure but I wouldn’t doubt Roman ingenuity. Those ****ers had aqueducts built all over Europe, transferring huge amounts of waters over miiiiiles.

Ok, glad to see that I have not commented on this yet. From the trailer, I have a feeling that they can actually pull this off. I of course, am going to see this movie. Gladiator was such a good movie. I am hoping for an awesome sequel. We shall see.

The floor is dirt? Maybe blocks under it I don't know. Why wouldn't walls be able to be sealed. I mean there's literally written history of them flooding it. They had roughly 300 miles of aqua ducts( in Rome), bath houses all over and roads that are still in tact today. Why wouldn't they be able to divert water there and seal it off is my question? They clearly demonstrate the ability to do it on a public pool/ sex house level. Why not a 272 ft by 157 ft area?
