One on one I don't even believe Crixus or even Gannicus will be able to defeat Stelios in 300.

Listen to the narrator in 300 where he described what Spartan children were meant to go through. You think the Agoge is a joke?
The strength of Sparta was in the collective unity of the phalanx, not the individual power of their soldiers. Stelios would be at a disadvantage in single combat with either of those gladiators.

Why contradicting yourself?


Will Spartacus not be there to organise the Gladiators army in our imaginary face off?


ShaqFu:
Not in this life or even in the world of fiction would any gladiator from the house of batiatus or even Spartacus series, match the Spartans in 300.

The only reason why the gladiators in Spartacus actually proved to be a formidable force against the Romans, was because of Spartacus himself. He served in the Roman regiment in their fight against the Getai, so he was well knowledgeable about Roman tactics and formation. Let's not also forget Spartacus himself is from Thrace. Thrace was also part of the Greek city states and they have formidable soldiers and good military tactics like the Athenians, Spartans etc.

If not for that, he and his fellow gladiators would have been dead a long time ago.

Of course he will, but so will Leonidas. Between Spartacus and Leonidas who is the better commander? Leonidas over Spartacus, any day, any time.

Stelios himself said it: "I've fought countless battles, never have I met one who could offer me what we Spartan call a beautiful death. I'm just hoping with all the world warriors gathered against us, there might be one down there who's up to the task".

Spartacus made a rag tag bunch of slaves warriors.


Leonidas was given already made warriors with preexisting military tactics, with or without Leonidas, the Spartans have a set and working military system.


Leonidas will most likely not survive leading the gladiators rebellion.



Spartacus is the better leader

Wrong!. They were already warriors made by the hands and tutelage of Doctore.

Leonidas was given already made warriors with preexisting military tactics, with or without Leonidas, the Spartans have a set and working military system.
"He was given". Lol. They were all Spartan. They all went through the same military training. Leonidas probably went through more rigorous training because he's the king.

Leonidas will most likely not survive leading the gladiators rebellion.

Spartacus is the better leader
Leonidas will definitely survive leading the Spartacus rebellion. All he has to do is use the combine training of the Agoge and that of the gladiatorial art taught by Onimaus.

Let's not even forget Spartacus was outsmarted 90% of the time by Marcus Crassus. A rich man oh. I tell you majority of the Roman Spartacus faced were idiots. When he met one who isn't an idiot, what happened then.

All the things Marcus Crassus did to Spartacus, he won't be able to do it to Leonidas. War is about strategy.

That phrase doesn't mean their soldiers were weak individually. Just that more victories were won through the strength of the phalanx. There's even a saying quoted in the movie, "A spartan is only as strong as the man fighting next to him".
Stelios is no slouch in single combat but the gladiators trained doggedly in it. There's more a chance of Stelios being granted his wish of a beautiful death than him beating either of 2 champions of the Arena.

The Man With The Iron Fist 2. Trash/10.

The second movie I’ve deleted without caring to know what happens later.

Fist Fight. Trash/10.

Charlie Day was good to watch, but the plot was akin to watching paint dry. I didn’t care for the proposed payoff at the end. I lost interest halfway in.

Spiral: From The Book Of Saw. 7/10.

I enjoyed this more than I anticipated. I had zero expectations going into this and can’t remember if initial reviews were good, lukewarm or bad. Seeing Saw traps after six years was a breath of fresh air and I enjoyed seeing Chris Rock in the lead role. I didn’t see the point of Samuel L being in the cast apart from trying to draw in Marvel fans. It worked anyway. I long acquired Saw fatigue since the second movie and skipped many films within the series. This was fine as a stand-alone movie, I don’t care for sequels.

Hotel Transylvania 4. 5.5/10.

No new concept to draw on so the company went with endless slapstick comedy to hold viewers engaged. Children will like it, adult fans of the series will tolerate it. They took us back to the same hubris Dracula learned to overcome since the third movie. Meh. I'll advice any adult fan to pass on it. If they have children then it will make for a good way to pass ninety plus minutes.

Just watched Don't Breathe 2. It was an 'okay' sequel. 7/10


It got me thinking, a battle between two good blind fighters.


Baba Voss (see) vs Norman Nordstrom/The blind man (don't breathe 1&2). Who would win?

Cube (1997)

Easily one of the best claustrophobic horrors I've ever seen. I've always like movies about people in tense situations. The picture begins with what appears to be a giangetic cube filled with several little compartments, some of which contain lethal traps. The main characters quickly meet and begin asking themselves questions about how they got there, why they're there, and so on. What I like about it is that they are all unique.

The plot revolves around how the characters evolve as they move from one room to the next. They gradually remove their masks, revealing what people are capable of doing in a tense situation. Without giving too much away, I'll tell you that they only got what they deserve.
if you like claustraphobia horror, then you should see The Descent

Descent 1 and 2 were my first forays into claustrophobic horror. Haven't been able to find my way out of the rabbit hole ever since.
