Re: Historically Inaccurate Movies
Come on, Gladiator was a most entertaining movie. Epic battles, great acting by Crowe and Phoenix.
And calling 300 or 10.000 BC historically inaccurate movies isn't very fair since these movies don't try to be historically accurate and make no such claims.

What was that submarine thing? U-571?

Heh. The Germanic tribesmen in the fist scene of Gladiator shouting uSuthu. Class. On that subject, I'd also nominate Zulu. Filled with errors, not least of all the overabundance of Welshmen.
When Adam delved and Eve span, Who was then the gentleman? From the beginning all men by nature were created alike, and our bondage or servitude came in by the unjust oppression of naughty men. For if God would have had any bondsmen from the beginning, he would have appointed who should be bound, and who free. And therefore I exhort you to consider that now the time is come, appointed to us by God, in which ye may (if ye will) cast off the yoke of bondage, and recover liberty. - John Ball
