First, apologies for my audio at times in the podcast. I'm not sure what happened. Second, apologies for the two movies we're about to review. While the Centurion squandered a chance to be good, The Last Legion is just awful. As we discuss these movies, we reference the brilliant Black Zeus X and then try to figure out what it is that Hollywood gets wrong when it makes movies "based on" Antiquity. We also discuss how great actors are constantly wasted in these movies and resurrect the term "McNulty Subplot".

Our next movie review episode will combine Troy and Helen of Troy.

The theme music is from Brent Arehart. Please call the pod (540-632-0160), leave a message and you’ll get in an episode. Let me know what you think about what we think in the comments.

And never forget that The Classical Antiquity Sidequest is a podcast without end.
