<p>Stacy, Lexy, Adam, Justin and Nicole discuss the <em>Gladiator</em> sequel and its cynical cash grab. Everyone disliked the movie although most were entertained mainly finding fault with shoddy writing and Paul Mescal and liking the fights and Denzel Washington. We talk about the legacy of sword and sandal movies and the first <em>Gladiator</em>. We find the movie as a pretty cynical cash grab without any meaning or purpose.</p> <p>Justin recommends <em>Black Spartacus</em>, Lexy recommends <em>Y2K</em>, Adam recommends <em>The King</em>, Nicole recommends visitn Antelope Canyon.</p> <p><a href="http://www.moviesthatmatterpodcast.com">Website</a> <a href= "https://www.redbubble.com/people/moviesmatterpod">Store</a> <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxgHHZ1PU5G6FuPM7X0pSvw">YouTube</a></p> <p>Facebook <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/groups/moviesmatterpod">Group</a> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/moviesmatterpod">Page</a></p> <p> </p>
