Just to clarify, Maximus's dog had NO name in the film. Some trivia: the dog's name in real life is Kyte, who played Wellard in the BBC TV series the EastEnders. It is a Belgian Tervuren NOT a German Shepherd. The utterance "unleash hell" is merely to unleash all the arrows,flaming pots,etc at the Germanians.
By using flaming arrows and flaming catapults, its intention was to create fear among the enemy ranks by seeing their friends on fire...lovely romans :D
@quiche781 however it took longer time to fire and was harder to aim - but the damage was greater too -.especially against units with clothes as amour and at the weak spots of a knights amrour - so using it against the germans weak armour was a great idea.
How to avoid brutal facts of reality , save appearances with certain elegance and make a blockbuster - intuition by feeling the pulse of movie-public can Director R.Scott with his Team, as main actor R.Crow and three music Masters ! And now it is possible to make fun about dog, asking about sorts of afterlife views - because the Story is epic, tragic - but told in inspiring way, not frightened horrified details .This video just shows it, too.Thanks!
The best line is the most historically inaccurate, Romans would have no concept of Christianity, the Roman Empire was converted by Emperor Constantinople 200 years after the film was set.
If the First United Methodist Church of Dublin and Tom Hall of Dublin Construction do not move the barriers they put blocking my driveway then this is what I will give them.
The original version was "at my signal unleash dogs" due to the fact that the roman legions before the battle used to unleash hungry dogs against the enemy. But very few people knew that around the world and nobody would understand so when the movie was dubbed in italian they decided to change it in "al mio segnale scatenate l'inferno - at my signal unleash hell". They contacted the american production in L.A. which liked it very much so decided to change the original english version too.
Everytime I see this scene I can't help thinking at an italian video that made me laugh a lot.
You see 6 or 7 guys around a table with their own fork ready in one hand and in the middle of the table there is a huge, smoking plate of spaghetti. At one moment the one who seems to be the oldest of all rises his fork and trying to imitate Russell Crowe says :
the dog isnt called hell. it just happens to be that the dog is there a the time. plus if u have ever seen the film u will know that the dog chases his horse before the signal for hell to be unleased is given
@SmiliSkater8P : They also didn't speak English... I think the term I'm looking for is 'suspension of disbelief' or at very least thinking about the whys and hows.
Conquers of old, tales of legend, Myths and My name will be there to lead you Antonio the Geat I will have my will done Rome will rise again and I will lead her to a rightfull glory!
I thought Hell was the name of his dog...you know" Unleash Hell, " ...and they did. :)

They actually did believe in an afterlife. And the Latin word for it was Hell. The original bible was written in Latin, thus the term Hell is born.
