The emperor, disillusioned with his son Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix), wishes to pass power to Maximus to restore the Roman Republic. Before this plan can be enacted, Commodus murders his father and seizes the throne.Refusing to serve the new emperor, Maximus is sentenced to death. He escapes execution but returns home to find his wife and son brutally murdered by Commodus's men. Captured and sold into slavery, Maximus becomes a gladiator under the training of Proximo (Oliver Reed), a former gladiator himself. Maximus ultimately works his way to Rome, igniting a battle not just for revenge but for the soul of Rome.As the story builds to a final confrontation, Maximus must fight one last time—against a corrupt emperor and the cruelty of the empire—to restore honor and justice and to fulfill a dying emperor's last hope.Guests:Robb ConlonFounder of Westport Studios and Host of B2B Business ClassLinkedIn: Robb / Westport StudiosPreviously On: Alien (1979), Aliens (1986), Die Hard (1988), The Godfather (1972), John Wick (2014), The Dark Knight (2008),

On this week's show, the hosts consider ‘Glicked' (or is it ‘Wadiator'? ‘Gladicked?'), the Wicked and Gladiator II double feature that promised to be this year's ‘Barbenheimer.' But did it deliver? Or even come close? First, the trio inspects Wicked, which won the weekend by a long shot (and broke a few records along the way.) At times, director Jon M. Chu's film adaptation of the famed Broadway musical (which is, itself, an adaptation of a series of novels inspired by Frank Baum's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz) can feel overstuffed and exhausting, but as Dana puts it in her review, “it's so buoyant it lifts both witches-to-be, along with the audience, into the stratosphere.”  Then, the panel moves on to Gladiator II, the very belated follow-up to Ridley Scott's 2000 Best Picture Winner. Which is… a really bad movie. No longer is the question “are you not entertained?", but “are men okay, actually?” The panel attempts to make sense of Scott's “dismal retread” and debate whether Denzel Washington's free reign over his character benefited the movie at large. Finally, Slate's Dan Kois joins to discuss “The 25 Most Important Recipes of the Past 100 Years,” a wonderful and lovely mega package compiled by Kois and J. Bryan Lowder that explores the history of home cooking in America and how it's changed over time. (Dan also cooked all 25 recipes, and then some, an epic saga which he chronicled.) In the exclusive Slate Plus segment, it's the long-awaited Bluesky debate. Following the mass exodus from Twitter/X, the hosts discuss the pros and cons of migrating over to a new, remarkably similar, platform.  We are still taking questions for our annual call-in show!
