Muad'Dib 1,997 Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 Apparently Ridley wants to do Gladiator 2 http://movieweb.com/gladiator-2-ridley-scott-story-idea/ And there's a review floating around that describes what they had in mind originally. Mind you, it's completely bonkers. But it's interesting in its own way... http://birthmoviesdeath.com/2015/01/29/the-unbelievably-insane-gladiator-sequel-that-almost-was
A24 4,924 Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 Soon we'll get Thelma And Louise 2! Jay and Not Mr. Big 2
A24 4,924 Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 Script 'Thelma & Louise 2' by Alan Smithee Exterior - Opening Scene The sound of wind blowing. Fade-in. The camera moves through the shiny white clouds. We hear faint music. Suddenly a Cadillac Sedan Deville jumps out of the clouds. The car has wings! We now recognize the music that is playing. It's Chitty Chitty Bang Bang! Ridley Scott: "Brilliant! I now know what my next movie will be!"
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 11,272 Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 Amazing! Thor will love it!

John 2,033 Posted November 1, 2018 Posted November 1, 2018 Ridley Scott Moving Forward with ‘Gladiator 2'; Peter Craig to Write Script for Paramount. Why?
Disco Stu 15,514 Posted November 1, 2018 Posted November 1, 2018 He needs to wait 10 years for when the nostalgia culture of rebooting/reviving gets to the 2000s. Of course Ridley will just as likely be dead in 10 years, the old fart.

A24 4,924 Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 9 hours ago, John said: Ridley Scott Moving Forward with ‘Gladiator 2'; Peter Craig to Write Script for Paramount. Why? I know why. He's looking for a project that is easily authorized, funded and that has the potential to be successful (the Alien/Prometheus universe no longer is that) because he has a work addiction. His biggest fear is to sit at home looking through the window. Work -> project -> money.
Lady Dimitrescu 10,259 Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 He needs another Martian type project.
A24 4,924 Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 Another sci-fi adaptation? Then he needs to find a popular, successful book first, one that opens the checkbook of financiers.
Lady Dimitrescu 10,259 Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 Maybe one of those teen dystopian flicks?

John 2,033 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 ‘Gladiator 2’ producers confirm the sequel will be set 25 years after the original.
Lady Dimitrescu 10,259 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 It'll be interesting to see how far technologically the Romans come during that time. mstrox 1
Holko 11,673 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 Well, there's a dead horse they haven't kicked yet! Will CG Oliver Reed look even better?

crocodile 9,346 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 I wonder whether it will be tied to the Alien franchise somehow... Karol
A24 4,924 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 30 years later? Reeks of The Revenge of The Son Of Gladiator. Anyway, not sure if Gladiator is still a thing with the latest generation.
Quintus 5,914 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 Is Russell Crowe's Maximus being resurrected for this? If so I'm on board, and why not? Although I wish they'd just stick him on the boat again instead FFS.
Quintus 5,914 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 Stop, you'll force me to watch it again tonight. But it's a long movie and incompatible with my weekdays.
Lady Dimitrescu 10,259 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 First one feels like it was released only yesterday...
Jurassic Shark 15,564 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 And the score is great, although Pub doesn't hear it!
Quintus 5,914 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 The score is absolutely sublime. In the film. Wait - we still talking Master and Commander here, right?
Quintus 5,914 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 I have never really thought to try an actual OST listen.
JoeinAR 1,955 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 Scott is tht most consistent director in his inconsistency. Chen G. 1

Master and Commander had quite a controversial score in soundtrack land, since its wasn't swashbuckling naval adventure. I do like that percussive, textural style.
Jurassic Shark 15,564 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 6 minutes ago, Quintus said: I have never really thought to try an actual OST listen. It's also one of those rare scores where the classial music and original score complement each other perfectly.
Quintus 5,914 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 The duets as accompanied by the seafaring visual are my kind of ASMR.

Quintus 5,914 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 God no. I had no idea about this said controversy tbh.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 11,272 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 People on FSM were up in arms!
Jurassic Shark 15,564 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 I can only think of one swashbuckler score after Korngold's golden era that I really like: Harry Gregson-Williams Sinbad. Sunshine Reger 1
Lady Dimitrescu 10,259 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 I never see them swashing their belt buckles.
