unlabelledView post →A quick reminder that according to the man who wrote his books, Donald Trump has never read one and that his favourite movie is Braveheart..... www.nbcconnecticut.com/news/nationa...
unlabelledView post →The funniest thing about this, outside of the demand to see a "historically accurate" movie about Greek gods and sea monsters, is that Mel Gibson's Braveheart was notorious for being one of the most historically inaccurate movies ever made -- because it was largely based on a fictionalized poem.
unlabelledView post →What do you think is the best speech in film? Sean's speech in Good Will Hunting? Chaplain's passionate monologue in the Great Dictator? When William Wallace roused his troops in Braveheart? Maybe Glengarry Glen Ross or A Few Good Men or- Me: Wrong. It's James Earl Jones in the rad dragon movie.
unlabelledView post →Didn’t Homer Simpson think the character’s name in the movie Payback was Payback because the title character of Braveheart is Braveheart
unlabelledView post →If you wanna understand the fundamental difference between the average American and the average Scot, then turn to their reactions to film. The Americans watch 'The Patriot' and are like "Fuck, yeah!" The Scottish watch 'Braveheart' and go "that didn't happen, and Mel Gibson's a cunt in real life"

Sweeping, emotional classical piece characterized by its "poignant cello performance" backed by the London Symphony Orchestra❤️Kat HAUSER - For The Love Of A Princess (Braveheart) youtu.be/k7ga3s51jUs?... via @YouTube
unlabelledView post →I went to the movies this weekend and saw a trailer for Mel Gibson’s new film “Flight Risk.” Nowhere in the trailer is Gibson mentioned by name (not even a top credits list!), and instead there was a note, “From the visionary director of Braveheart, Apocalypto, and Hacksaw Ridge” lmao
unlabelledView post →"Peace" =/= Peace.The baltics had "peace" after WW2 yet it was not the same peace the western Europe enjoyed. We were herded and forced to be inferior in our own country. Our houses were taken, our best tortures and killed. Fuck that. In the words of W. Wallace from the movie Braveheart - "Freedom!"
unlabelledView post →Im going to liveblog a viewing of Braveheart, a film I as a Scot have a very weird relationship with. It came out in 1995 and for the first time people really voted for the Scottish National Party lol
unlabelledView post →this friend also loved the movie Braveheart but he didn't like that it had a sex scene so he recorded over it with a nun talking about grace. we found out when we all watched it on New Year's Eve once.
unlabelledView post →Also Mel Gibson is a living nightmare but Braveheart was such a goddamn movie. That was 2 and a half hours of brutality and romance it's a movie folks it's a movie and a half
unlabelledView post →While the 1995 film Braveheart is not a cult classic, you must certainly conceed that it is a "kilt classic." [all five members of Shark Tank nod their heads solemnly]
unlabelledView post →Braveheart...great movie except for the fact that the protagonist is now a right wing nut job...
unlabelledView post →"Babe" was better than both of them. "Braveheart" wasn't even the best film about a legendary Scottish outlaw in 1995-- "Rob Roy" was better.
unlabelledView post →I think we would get along really really well on movie night because I have never seen Braveheart due to the lack of Sterling bridge.
unlabelledView post →The Scottish tour guide we had last week while we were driving through the Highlands told us that Shrek was a more historically accurate film than Mel Gibson's Braveheart was. 🤣
unlabelledView post →Just think of the priceless pieces of film memorabilia that we've lost: -authentic Australian outback piss jar from Mad Max -an empty hair spray can from each of the first three Lethal Weapon movies -antisemitic decoder ring from Conspiracy Theory -spare merkins (used) from Braveheart
unlabelledView post →Read generously perhaps this is just how you have to market a film pitch for the Yanks, but I for one don't want "Welsh Braveheart" about how Wales is "passionate", "high spirited and quick to battle", "artistic" and melancholy".
unlabelledView post →Braveheart was basically a fantasy film. None of those things happened that way in actual history. Apollo 13 was much better
unlabelledView post →Some movies that are 30 years old in 2025: - Toy Story - Apollo 13 - Seven - Bad Boys - Braveheart - Goldeneye - Dangerous Minds - To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything! Julie Newmar - Mortal Kombat - A Goofy Movie - Tank Girl - Billy Madison - Tales From the Crypt Presents Demon Knight - Friday
unlabelledView post →...and in other news, this Sunday is Burns Night 2026, with our local Cineworld celebrating all things Scottish by screening Braveheart or The Angel's Share for £5.99 each, plus a free can of Irn Bru for all viewers, just as Rabbie Burns himself would have wanted. film-authority.com/2026/01/23/t...
unlabelledView post →Writer: George Lucas Director: Ron Howard Score: James Horner (Titanic, Avatar, Braveheart, Pearl Harbor, etc.) Willow is a ✨fantastic✨ film, for these and many more specific reasons. If you appreciate the Fantasy genre, you will NOT regret screening it for yourself.
unlabelledView post →OTD 1305 Scottish freedom fighter William Wallace was brutally executed in Smithfield, London. His story was epically mangled in 1995 movie Braveheart. I’ll be telling some eye watering stories about making of Mel Gibson’s epic in the blog pages of my forthcoming website. youtu.be/m9ekRf5-lC8?...
unlabelledView post →‘You all know, more than any other audience that I’ve played to, that Braveheart is the shittest movie ever made *laughter* It is. It was made by the reactionary Catholic bigot Mel Gibson-‘ This fella goes on quite the journey from this point on…
unlabelledView post →At this time I just need to reiterate that Braveheart sucks. Every minute of that film is phony.
unlabelledView post →Today's a good day to remind you that Braveheart is a shitty movie beloved by the worst people in our society and any reasonable person who likes it was tricked into doing so by John Toll and James Horner.
unlabelledView post →This entire thread could (and should!) just be about Braveheart I've never ranted at a film before or since like I did when I saw that And its not even a period I know much about, which somehow made the glaring errors even worse
unlabelledView post →Saw a movie trailer the other day that had the gall to say, "from the director of Braveheart," without saying the name Mel Gibson.
unlabelledView post →This is reminding me of the Robert the Bruce movie from 2019, which was marketed as Braveheart 2: A New Beginning in Korea. It technically is a sequel to Braveheart insofar as it has the same actor as Robert, but the idea of one major figure in Scottish history being a sequel to another is so funny.
unlabelledView post →Re-watched Braveheart last night after maybe not seeing it for 20 years. Yeah Mel Gibson is an asshole but this film really is still a great film with an awesome soundtrack. I dunno, I still enjoyed the heck out of it. #filmsky
unlabelledView post →I know pointing out the lack of historical accuracy in Braveheart is as fresh as saying "die hard is a Christmas movie" but there's messing up a detail for aesthetics and thoroughly misunderstanding how... like... all warfare works.
unlabelledView post →5 topics I could give an hour long talk on: 1. The evolution of arms and armour through early-high medieval. 2. Why Rome kinda sucked. 3. The movie Braveheart (negatively) 4. How the industrial revolution and neo liberalism destroyed British culture. 5. Why orks are the best warhammer faction.
unlabelledView post →Good time to re-up this piece about how Braveheart isn’t that good of a movie, definitely not worth all the orgasms MAGA guys have watching it and fantasizing about being him evanhurst.substack.com/p/maga-creep...
unlabelledView post →#SussexSquad A movie line that applies to Harry & Meghan. "FREEDOM" - Braveheart
unlabelledView post →Somebody today tried to tell me that the movie Braveheart came out over 30 years ago. Haha. What a joker. If that were true, I'd be old.
unlabelledView post →No, it’s horrible. On every conceivable level. Not only is it a bad movie but it’s more historically inaccurate than Braveheart… which can’t even get the years it takes place in right.
unlabelledView post →Ah Braveheart. The film were loads of English people suddenly get serious about historical accuracy and self declared experts on Scottish History whilst lauding films about Shakespearian fairy stories.
unlabelledView post →some people do "what movie would Bruce Wayne and his parents have been attending instead of Zorro if they got got 20 years ago?," I do "what 10-year-old Dudes Rock movie would Ray from Achewood watch when he's getting drunk with his boys now instead of Braveheart?"
unlabelledView post →The other option is that the producers think that Americans are too stupid to watch a historical movie about rebelling against authority if it doesn't have Robin Hood in it. Braveheart: The Death of Robin Hood Outlaw King: Robin Hood's Rise A Knight's Tale: Robin Hood Learns to Joust
unlabelledView post →Braveheart beat Apollo 13 for best picture. And I am going to piss off some people here, but Apollo 13 is a better movie.
unlabelledView post →Last post before bed: the Oscars are pretty consistent about giving best picture to a movie that… isn’t. I think the year Braveheart won 🤮 was the year I realized not winning was kind of the mark of actually being good.
unlabelledView post →Angus Macfadyen and Catherine Zeta Jones attend the premiere of Braveheart in Stirling in 1995. Macfadyen played Robert the Bruce in the film.

unlabelledView post →THESE ISLES: Medieval Scottish warrior Sir William Wallace has been celebrated by 19th century historians as a national hero, debunked by others as a self-serving outlaw and immortalised by Mel Gibson in the film Braveheart. 1/6
unlabelledView post →Braveheart at 30: Mel Gibson’s gory, hokey Oscar winner plays like a biblical epic.
unlabelledView post →Today I learnt: the director initially slated to direct "Braveheart" (eventually of course made by & starring Mel Gibson) was ... Terry Gilliam. Now *that* would have been a film.
unlabelledView post →“One adult for the movie from the director of Braveheart, Apocalypto and Hacksaw Ridge please”
unlabelledView post →When talking about Scotland with folks whose only knowledge is Braveheart, I always start with...It's a great movie, but shite history.

unlabelledView post →Yeah there is a weird thing here in America about the "Warrior Poet". Mostly people with an Irish background. They get hammered on St Patrick's day eating Corned Beef and watch Braveheart. Not realizing the meal is Jewish and the movie is about a Scot.
unlabelledView post →kind of a relief to me that they finally filmed a movie about Edinburgh actually IN Edinburgh, unlike Trainspotting, Braveheart, countless others that have annoyed me in the past
unlabelledView post →The film won the Academy Award for Best Sound and Best Film Editing. It was nominated for nine Oscars, including Best Picture (losing to BRAVEHEART) #TCMParty #Apollo13 ^JW
unlabelledView post →So many times I want to post a relevant GIF about freedom from the film "Braveheart" but then I remember it's Mel Gibson and he's a crazy fucking racist so I can't.
unlabelledView post →Army Media 🇺🇦 Nobody Knew Scotland Until Braveheart. Now the World Has 🇺🇦Killhouse. Ukraine made the war film that explains everything you didn’t understand about modern warfare. It’s called Killhouse. It opens April 23. And you need to see it.

unlabelledView post →Braveheart is my favourite film. It's such a good representation of the medieval world.
unlabelledView post →Jackson wanted the battle scenes (and whole film) to have a grounded look, and asked concept artists to take inspiration from Braveheart. Finding the work too fantastical though, he ultimately hired acclaimed Tolkien illustrators Alan Lee and John Howe to nail the designs. 20/46
