2024-01-17 00:56:43 +0000 UTCI’ve never seen that one. Been meaning to. But yeah, I do like Gladiator a lot. Not worthy of Best Picture, but it still holds up in large part due to Russell Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix. I think it’s better than, say, Spartacus. And I do love Kingdom of Heaven as well. Not everyone does, but I just find it absorbing, the world that Scott creates. And it has one of Edward Norton’s better performances, which he’s not even billed for.

2023-11-22 03:04:44 +0000 UTCFor my money his best period piece is still his film debut, The Dualist, despite the success of Gladiator and my own love affair with Kingdom of Heaven.

2023-11-22 02:31:38 +0000 UTCTrue. Ridley Scott has one of the most hit-or-miss careers of any director I know. But he tends to fare well with historical epics. Not this time though. Napoleon’s been getting some dismal reviews.

2023-11-21 22:38:10 +0000 UTCUnfortunately, Ridley Scott isn't a guarantee for success either. He's had his fair share of bombs after Gladiator.

2023-11-21 22:12:05 +0000 UTCNapoleon is directed by, Ridley Scott
Gary Smith
2023-11-20 07:39:07 +0000 UTCI haven't seen any of his post Black Hawk Down works but yeah the films I've seen his name on in ads recently are just...why? How did this dude make something like Alien?

2023-11-17 02:45:43 +0000 UTCI mean...it's Ridley Scott. He's hard to take seriously ever. Especially when he tries.

2023-11-16 22:22:33 +0000 UTCI thought Napoleon was Ridley Scott.

Alexandros Alexandropoulos
2023-11-16 06:47:59 +0000 UTCNapoleon has to be a satire. There's no way with those tv ads that this could possibly be taken seriously. Napoleon from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure might not be as silly as I thought now.

2023-11-16 05:27:21 +0000 UTClol...no. Apologies
Deepfocuslens
2023-11-16 04:39:34 +0000 UTClol...for some reason, I confuse the two all the time. Has nothing to do with their films or what the men look like. For some reason, their names are just completely interchangeable in my mind.

2023-11-16 03:30:31 +0000 UTCI see Jacob Elordi is having his moment.

2023-11-16 03:17:59 +0000 UTCNo, Oliver Stone did not direct Napoleon, but seeing how Alexander turned out, that’s probably for the best.
Bennett Oliver
2023-11-16 03:03:31 +0000 UTCIs there also an Oliver stone Napoleon film?

2023-11-16 03:02:45 +0000 UTCSaltburn looks way more interesting. Napoleon looks like another generic biopic
