  • 5:02 it's SPOCK!

  • @whorebag000 at 4:20 there's three of them!!!

    

  • Cleopatra was the prize Octavion won because Antony killed himself!!!!!!!! Get it right people!!!!!!

  • Oh History, why can't you actually be this campy?

  • Darn it I really want to see the Director's cut!!

  • Great scott! It's Q from James Bond at 8:26!!!

  • Cleo is sooooo argumentative (always). Seems that poor Burton found his downfall when he married Taylor. The movies seems a portent of the future for him.

  • and i think "FridayNightMovieZ" is the best!!!!!

  • Cleopatra: "The way to prevent war is to be ready for it"

    Sosogenes: "Have 300 warships ever been built for war without war?"

  • Cleopatra: "The way to prevent war is to be ready for it"

    Sisogenes: "Have 300 warships ever been built for war without war?"

  • Cleopatra: "The way to prevent war is to be ready for it"

    Sisogines: "Have 300 warships ever been built for war without war?"

  • 4:15 the first guy with the bowl cut looks like Spock and Octavian looks like Will Sheuster from Glee. Hey, I am just saying.

  • Cleopatra should've also strengthened Egypt's military prowess during her reign and make some advancements to them, then she and Antony probably would've won in the end!

  • I wish the Donations of Alexandria were shown in this movie, where Antony gave territories to his 3 kids by Cleo.

  • i feel like cleopatra is not acting with her right mind, she is becoming too unreasonable.

  • @Mandinko23 She kept trying to turn Antony into someone he wasn't, which was a great general like Caesar. Big mistake for her ot try that. Antony wasn't as ambitious as she was. 

  • Who the HELL disliked this video

  • Elizabeth Taylor is so beautifull it's actually unreal :O

  • In Part 17, she said...

    "Perhaps consult with your superior in Rome...Octavian...Caesar Octavian

    "You will kneel, on your knees.

    I asked it of Julius Caesar, I demand it of you." You have NOT been dismissed.

    We women know what to say to get under a man's skin...both to irritate and intoxicate him. Great delivery.

  • @myvisionownsme They don't make movies like this anymore. Pity really.

  • WOW THIS MOVIE IS LONG WAS THAT LEONARD NEMOY (STAR TREK ) AT 5:00

  • @TRUEBLUE2053 They do look like Vulcans, don't they?

  • Octavian is a perfect example of what fits the infamous polictician sterotype... master of manipulation!

  • In reality Cleopatra was neither young nor attractive. Antonius was mad. Some of the comments suggest Ceasar was a great man - have these fools no respect for democracy? The BEST system. Ceasar destroyed Romes democracy and brought about the terror of the principate - Caligula, Tiberius having sex with prepubescent boys. Read Syme's "roman revolution", Ceasar, Octavianus and Antonius destroyed Rome. Ceasar conquered free people just because he could - is that greatness? I don't believe it is.

  • Rome was not a democracy, it was a Republic, in which the rich and powerful ruled the Senate. There was a reason why Caesar's forces were called the "Populares". They were supported by the people, and it wasn't just propaganda.

  • cleo was too political, she only used to further her own greatness. lol

  • I love this line "You give yourself to love, you give yourself to forgetfulness; of what you are, and who you are and what you want." ...Wow...

  • Another bad wig.

  • lol i love all the curtain whipping in this movie... makes it so dramatic!

  • That round, poofy, pinkish colored wig is pretty groovy.

  • i love her,

  • Cleopatra should have hooked up with Octavian. They thought alike and had the same ambitions and mindset, however much Cleopatra denied it to herself.

  • That would have been cool. You're right. They do have a lot in common. I don't know how the real Octavian or Cleo would have felt about it, though.

  • @canadarox14 The real Octavian and Cleo probably would've seen each other as possible allies yet their differences and hatred for each other would've got in the way of them.

  • @TheNuharoo

    Augustus always sought the appearance of legitimacy. To rule with the approval of the people required a Roman wife. The seduction of Julius Caesar and Anthony was seen as being disloyal to the Roman state. Octavian understood this.

  • @TheNuharoo Ikr! I've often pictured them being great partners however they were a lot alike, as the saying goes "opposites attract and identicals repell."

  • @HistoryLover1550 I think Cleopatra, this time around, wanted to choose and then mold a partner into what she wanted, but with disastrous results. Octavian admitted to himself what he was and what he wanted and Cleopatra didn't. That is why she lost and Octavian won.

  • @TheNuharoo Your right.

  • @TheNuharoo

    lol i doubt cleopetra denied it to herself.

    I think she got rejected by Octavian when he gave her "Whatever" and middle finger sign to conquer Rome and Egypt. LOL

  • @TheNuharoo They did not have the same mindset. Octavian saw a world, ruled by Rome & Rome alone. He saw a world with Rome at it's center. He thought only of the West. Only of the proper world, the new world. Caesar & Cleopatra saw a new world. Where the West and East could be united. A new empire based on the vision of Alexander the Great whom they both shared great admiration and affection. Where the old and new could be mixed. Antony understood that vision and shared it with Cleopatra.

  • @TheNuharoo Allegedly Cleo tried to seduce Octavian when they actually met, but by that time she was cracking on a bit, and he was too shrewd.

  • @TheNuharoo They would have been the worlds greatest known power couple!

  • cleopatra is the kind of woman who makes the world go round.

  • theirs not one actor in this movie who haven't got supreme chemistry with the other actors

  • I Love it when Cleopatra got mad...She was very wise in her words

  • Technically he never took the title of Emperor. He took the title of "First Citizen" but had absolute power. He deserved it and proved to be a wise and great leader. He didn't die a bloody and horrible death fortunately.

  • Octavian, later Augustus Caesar, was a brilliant politician who let the Roman people call for the war he was ready, single handedly, to fight. Later, he professed to love the republic, while

    jockeying for the position of Emperor.
