Ng Yi Ting - 1107345 _Gladiator

[Commodus enters the Colesseum arena to greet the Spaniard]
Commodus: Rise. Rise.
[Maximus stands up, clenching an arrow head in his right hand and in that same moment Lucius runs to join Commodus standing in front of him]
Commodus: Your fame is well deserved, Spaniard. I don't think there's ever been a gladiator to match you. As for this young man, he insists you are Hector reborn. Or was it Hercules? Why doesn't the hero reveal himself and tell us all your real name? You do have a name?
Maximus: My name is Gladiator.
[turns away from Commodus]
Commodus: How dare you show your back to me! Slave, you will remove your helmet and tell me your name.
Gladiator Quotes[Maximus removes his helmet and turns around to face Commodus]
Maximus: My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius. Commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.
[Commodus is clearly in shock and without words]


The scene i like is when maximus stares down Commodus in the middle of the arena.
He lost his beloved son and wife and came to revenge for them. That's why when commodus heard what Maximus said he was shock. 
I was very happy to see this scene when i can see the shocking and retarded face of the King (Commodus). The king did so many bad things and he dint even know he came to the end whereby Maximus came to revenge. The king though of killing maximus by having a battle, he did a trick. Before having a battle with Maximus, he came by and stab Maximus. Maximus given a not so good sword but still won the battle against the king.
