URGENT MOVIE HELP
 

I was watching some type of Ancient Rome, gladiator, middle ages movie. I tried looking up who the main character was but I could not remember what his name was or what the main character looks like. When I think of the main character I think of Russel Crowe, Hugh Jackman, Michael Fassbender. In the near beginning or the actual beginning of the movie there is several gladiators or knights (no Armour on) just leather like this:

but it was kind of darker and they weren't wearing as much.

they were waiting to fight one on one or fight someone. When this scene is going on it's during the day it is very bright out, someone gets called out to the arena or to fight and one person leaves the room then next a little boy comes up to the main character and he asks him if he is who is he and the main character says yes it is. The little boy then goes on saying basically I wish you the best and the main character says thank you but what are you doing out here shouldn't you be with your father? The little boy replies with something like my father is dead and now I am with my uncle.

When the main character and the boy were talking it looked like this: (I made this in paint quickly)

The main character was behind black bars standing up learning against the wall with other people in the room and the boy was outside the black bars with lots of other people walking around on the outside.

The movie isn't gladiator if that's what someone is going to say, I have literally searched everything for the past 4 hours. PLEASE HELP ME.

300? i havent seen it,but i guess gerard butler and russel could like alike.

Wasn't 300, I wish it was though. I've literally looked everywhere for this movie and I can't seem to find it. I was about 15 minutes in.

Re: URGENT MOVIE HELP
 

The picture is so detailed I feel like I should know....

No need for a smartass comment, they are literally just talking through black bars.

Was this the main character? If so it was a terrible movie called Pompeii that came out in 2014.

Re: URGENT MOVIE HELP
 

Basically there was no need for the picture. Saying someone was behind bars gives us the mental picture.

As for the film, need more info. Otherwise I can just post a link to swords and sandal movies.

For comparison with your drawing:

Could just be coincidence though.

Thank you for the help but this is crazy how close my description is to this scene but this isn't the movie. When the main character is in this black bar kind of jail cell is looks similiar but the bars are literally just stright like in the picture and when he is talking to the buy he is standing up leaning against a wall.

Well the pictures there so theres no need to cry about it.

As for the film I only remember the one scene when he is talking to the boy while he is leaning up against the wall right infront of the black straight bars and the boy says that his father died and he now lives with his uncle. I only got about 15 minutes into the movie and I checked my history but it's not there.

Well, since you posted a lot of random filler stuff to get to 25 posts so you could use the picture, it's a pretty relevant point. One would hope in that scenario the picture would at least help matters.

25 Posts is to stop spammers and botters, I'm neither of those I'm posting in the right section of the forums and following the guidelines. For me just coming to this site I can tell it's not friendly or very welcoming.

Could it be the Spartacus tv series? They used "300" type graphics and to a casual viewer it would come off as a movie.

lol! If this place was any sweeter Id need insulin. Quit being so sensitive, bad first impression ;)

And how would it/we know that until afterwards? It's a general rule that prevents a lot of spam and occasionally slightly inconveniences people, just like any anti-spam measure.

This is literally the opposite of what nearly all our new members say, dude.

Yeah, but to get to the 25 posts necessary to post links you ended up pulling the same post-as-many-short-posts-as-possible move as the typical spammer would. Even though you're not intending to post actual spam, you can see how people could get the wrong first impression.

Spartacus is my favourite tv show. If it ends up being this I will have to kick myself. But I don't remember any young child talking to either of the characters while they're behind bars.

I haven't seen The Eagle (2011), but from what I'm gathering looking at it online, there's a fairly young looking character and at least one 1v1 arena fight with people in little clothing.

:facepalm: you guys... :D :D :D


It's Ridley Scott's Gladiator.

Except he already said it wasn't Gladiator.

Uh...

The vid isn't available on YouTube, but it's on Daily Motion: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xkz...mus_shortfilms

Yeah I was thinking about that scene too when I first read the post, but they specifically said it wasn't Gladiator. Now that I've watched that clip though, it's hard to imagine another movie that fits the bill so perfectly.

I've seen The Eagle, it doesn't fit his description.

I've literally searched for HOURS IM GOING CRAZY :P

Yeah it's not the eagle I looked at that for a while. I just remember in the beginning some type of well known gladiator was asked by a kid if he was who he was and the gladiator was around 30-40 tall and was leaning against a wall talking through the black bars.

OMFG YES YES YES YES I LOVE YOU!! THATS THE MOVIE!!!! IS THAT REALLY THE GLADIATOR AHAHA I literally skipped through the whole movie and didnt see this scene

Re: URGENT MOVIE HELP
 

OMG :facepalm:

HAHAHA don't judge :p

Re: URGENT MOVIE HELP
 

Dude.

Re: URGENT MOVIE HELP
 

You skipped through all of Gladiator? So then, have you not actually seen the whole movie? You fool!

I guess the moral of the story is not to dismiss a movie if you haven't seen the entire thing?

You should thank the Rodent though, not me. They tracked down the clip and refused to trust that it wasn't Gladiator haha.

Re: URGENT MOVIE HELP
 

Stick around Struuck you are entertaining i'll give you that.

I read this in a Commodus voice.

:rolleyes:

What threw me off is when he said it wasnt Gladiator.

Unintentionally the funniest thing Gilber Godfried ever did....

What

a

thread

I may have typed "You fool!" but I assure you fool is not what I said aloud.

It vexes me. I'm terribly vexed.

More to come don't worry.

Re: URGENT MOVIE HELP
 

Thumbs up please for comedic relief, I was testing everyone's skills on the forum. I actually know the movie was Gladiator all along.

Re: URGENT MOVIE HELP
 

...that's a joke, right?

Have a little bit of a sense of humor. No one one even poked any fun at all about your ALL CAPS urgent movie help request. Or did I just do that?

Re: URGENT MOVIE HELP
 

is this sc? :lol:

Re: URGENT MOVIE HELP
 

I was going to say Gladiator as a joke in my first post too.....wow.

Does that mean you're really going to pay me for a meal plan? ;)

Re: URGENT MOVIE HELP
 

Since you said the main character might have been played Michael Fassbender, I wonder if it is this film called Centurion (2010).

Re: URGENT MOVIE HELP
 

I've been giving this considerable thought over the past few days .... could it possibly be The Mighty Ducks?

Comedy potential has run its course I think.
