Russell Crowe was so unhappy with the original script for Gladiator (2000) that he frequently ad-libbed. He famously told writer William Nicholson: "Your lines are garbage, but I’m the greatest actor in the world, so I can make even garbage sound good."

Russell Crowe didn’t even like parts of the first Gladiator script — he rewrote lines on set and famously told the writer, “Your lines are garbage. But I can make even garbage sound good.” Then came Gladiator 2, with Nick Cave’s wild sequel about Maximus being resurrected by the gods to kill a Christ-like figure. Crowe read it and said, “Don’t like it, mate.”And just like that...we might have missed a masterpiece sequel.

Russell Crowe said that when he was first approached to play Maximus, the script was very poor. It was so bad the producers wouldn’t send it to him in case it put him off. Instead, they just asked him to meet Ridley Scott. Crowe did get his hands on the script though, and didn’t like it. He was going to say no but he was working on The Insider (1999) at the time and its director, Michael Mann, told Crowe he should meet with Scott anyway. Crowe did and said: “Ridley’s pitch was basically – ‘we’ve got a $100m budget. It’s ancient Rome. You’re playing a General. And you’re being directed by me.’” Crowe was suitably impressed, and took the part. Gladiator (2000)

Mel Gibson was the top choice to play Maximus in Gladiator (2000). He turned it down because, at 43, he believed he was too old to convincingly fight in armor. His rejection paved the way for Russell Crowe to take the role. And the rest is cinematic history—Russell Crowe went on to define the character and turn Gladiator into an unforgettable epic.

The emotional ending of Gladiator (2000) was not the original plan. In the first script, Maximus was supposed to survive after defeating Commodus. However, during filming, Ridley Scott approached Russell Crowe on set and told him: “With the way the story is unfolding, you cannot survive.” Both realized that Maximus only existed for one purpose: to avenge his family and reunite with them in the afterlife. If he lived, the character would lose all meaning. (Crowe even joked: “So what would Maximus do next? Open a pizza shop outside the Colosseum?”) The death scene and the final reunion in Elysium were late changes — and they became the greatest ones, turning the film into a true emotional masterpiece.

Biden just called half the country garbage, and now people like Kevin O’Leary are “pissed.” “The President of the United States just called me garbage. I’m a little pissed off about that. I think I’m going to go stand in line, and I’m going to vote.” This is so bad that O’Leary referred to this as the new “deplorables moment.” “I think that was a mistake, and I’m sure it’s going to get a ton of social media tomorrow. I mean, I know he wishes he could take that back,” O’Leary said. “He is the president of all that garbage,” O’Leary pointed out. “Remember, he represents everybody. Everybody, including the garbage. That [statement] is crazy.”

Russell Crowe says he watched Gladiator in the Colosseum and felt embarrassed by how much attention he got "The last time I saw Gladiator I actually watched it in the Colosseum in Rome...I got a little bit embarrassed that I'd received so much attention for that film "it's an incredible ensemble and beautiful performances end to end...I wish every young actor could have something like a Gladiator in their career" "We made that film in 1999 and I'll bet you money that somewhere in the world tonight it's playing on prim time television...It has the longest legs"

Gladiator was Ridley Scott’s best chance at an Oscar in 2001. He lost the award to Steven Soderbergh for Traffic, a decision I can’t necessarily argue with? Traffic is exceptional. But so is Gladiator. Crowe won Best Actor & this film won Best Picture. Ridley just came up short.

Russell Crowe was once asked if he used any acting method. “I use the Russell Crowe method. I’ve never been to acting school, man. “I don’t even know what the Stanislavski method is… no f*cking idea” “If you want to be actor, work it out for yourself.”

Leslie Nielsen’s greatest comedy weapon was that he never looked like he was telling a joke. AIRPLANE! (1980) and THE NAKED GUN (1988) work so well because he delivers the most ridiculous lines with the complete sincerity of a serious dramatic actor.

Scaramucci: I think the garbage man thing—he thinks it’s helping him, and they think they’re driving around in the garbage truck, owning the libs. But let me give you a few quick reasons why that didn’t help him. Number one, he looked like an 80-year-old man stumbling into the garbage truck—very, very bad optics for him. Number two, he said to the American public that America is a garbage can, and now he’s riding around in a garbage truck. By and large, normal, rational Americans don’t want an 80-year-old buffoon calling their country garbage.

Lately I feel like we're like a married couple. I'm still immature, so he points out that I don't put the laundry away or leave the garbage on the floor. But I point them out too, so it's a good balance. I think that kind of life is good. #DaiShun

Byron Donalds Shuts Down Joe Biden’s Attempt to Backtrack on “Garbage” Remark Joe Biden just called Trump supporters “garbage,” and now he’s saying that he was talking about Tony Hinchcliffe, not you. But Byron Donalds isn’t buying it, and he brought the receipts to prove Biden is full of BS. “He thinks that they [Trump supporters] are garbage. That’s a fact. And what I go back to is four years ago, around this same time, it was Joe Biden that went on the Breakfast Club and famously said that if you couldn’t vote for him, then you weren’t Black. It’s the same Joe Biden making the same type of statement four years ago. So this is consistent with who he is.” Donalds nailed it.
