      The originator of Broadway's KUSO

      The name "Age of Empires" is not as good as another name, "A History of Crazy Mankind".
      This film somehow only shot the first one.
      Judging from the time taken to complete the filming, this epic, song and tearful (with tears of laughter) giant production can be described as a super gorgeous collection of nostalgic retro and era-crossing spoofs.
      Here I have to pay tribute to the Broadway ghost Mel Brooks.
      Sure enough, a genius of Jewish descent. I have to admire ~~~ I...

      I panicked after watching this movie

      Especially at the beginning, the music and the scenes are just a tribute to "2001"~~~
      There are also several periods in the movie, which are very humorous. I
      want to mention that this section of Rome is very engaging, and the two blacks meet. Say hello, "hey guy!" "hey motherfucker" is simply the streets of the United States, and the use of marijuana smoke to confuse soldiers is also very classic.
      The most classic thing is that when the protagonist meets Jesus, of course he...

      Half of the world history

      This comedy director, who is famous for his sexual gimmicks, is somewhat admirable, regardless of his creative courage or his singing and dancing talent.
          The first few minutes of the film (about the life scenes of cavemen) are more funny and creative, especially about the origin of the "Ten Commandments"; in the later part of the Roman Empire, there is a suspicion that there is a lot of time to walk, and there are many elements of coquettishness. However, the "Last Supper" section is...

    Movie quotes

    • Narrator: And of course, with the birth of the artist came the inevitable afterbirth... the critic.

    • Marcus Vindictus: Oh Nympho, I would do anything to gain your favor. How can I catch you? How can ensnare you? What bait must I use to catch your love? I am your servant!

      Empress Nympho: Ah, but the servant waits, while the *master* baits!

    • Comicus: Have you heard of this new sect, the Christians? They are a laugh riot! First of all, they are so poor...

      Swiftus: How poor are they?

      Comicus: Thank you! They are so poor... that they only have *one* God!

      [drumbeat, everyone laughs]

      Comicus: But we Romans are rich. We've got a lot of gods. We've got a god for everything. The only thing we don't have a god for is premature ejaculation... but I hear that's coming quickly.
