I don't own or take this movie seriously


Robert The Bruce NEVER turned on Wallace. So *beep* Mel Gibson and the pathetic excuse of movie makers who sided with him. I don't hate the English. I love a lot of English actresses and they love me. The ones I've come into contact with on social media. This movie pedals a mentality towards people who think the media tells it like it is. Braveheart is a pile of inaccurate *beep* I kind of wish it wasn't. But it is. So it can rot!.

Braveheart is definitely not historically accurate, at least no more than The 300 is.

Or Pee Wee's Big Adventure for that matter.

300 was pretty accurate in terms of the basic events, certainly more than Braveheart.

I thought we were past this! It's inaccurate, you don't like it, you want it to rot! Fine DON'T *beep* WATCH IT THEN. See how that works?

Honestly...I don't give a flying f--k about historical accuracy. A good film is a good film.

Other than that how'd ya like it?

reply

As has been stated, I agree that it's a terrible history lesson, but still feel it's a great film.

Well, it's not a documentary is it? I'm sure half the stuff in The Great Escape Never happened either but it's a damn good film.

reply

Actually, if you just subtract the Steve McQueen character and everything he does, which was a complete invention, all the rest of it is actually pretty close to Paul Brickhill's book about the Stalag Luft III escape.

Good. I don't take your post seriously either, bub.
