Gladiator: Everything You Didn't Know
Description
Do you like movies about gladiators? The TMI guys hope so, because they’re going long on Ridley Scott’s classic that revitalized sword and sandal epics for the 21st century. (Until 'Gladiator II' ruined it…) You’ll hear all about the acts of violence Russell Crowe brought to the set, the untimely (errr, maybe somewhat timely) death of legendary British hellraiser Oliver Reed mid-production, all the ways Joaquin Phoenix was traumatized during the shoot, and the ways everyone nearly died due to the live tiger-wrangling. You’ll also discover why Ridley Scott got screwed at the Oscars, ex-‘Incredible Hulk’ Lou Ferrigno got screwed out of a role, and the audience got screwed out of seeing Nick Cave’s truly batsh-t script for a 'Gladiator' sequel brought to the big screen. Those who are about to listen — we salute you!
