Y2K'Oscars: Gladiator (2000)

IMDbitch Fest is back with a brand new season! We're watching our way through every Best Picture winner of the "aughts," a term we both staunchly reject. First up: 2000's Gladiator, the first prestige blockbuster of the new millennium, starring baby-faced football dad Russell Crowe. Join us as we get down and dirty with the movie that is somehow sword, tiger, chains, blood, dust, football, AND Nascar, all rolled into one, and ponder such questions as "What is Rome?" and "Did Julius Caesar actually happen?"
