“Hector!!! Hector!!!!” Troy is such a guilty pleasure of a film. One of the best fight scenes ever between him and Pitt.

Totally agree, Eric as Hector was the perfect casting and him with Brad Pitt dueling was one the best chorography fight scene in movie history =) Eric has played in bunch of good movies like Troy and time travellers wife on top of hulk and other movies that he is 90's early 2000's star. Damn that white hair wishes I would age that gracefully, best of luck "Hector" =)

Bana was excellent in that film. Troy missed the mark on many fronts, from miscast actors to horribly written dialogue. Diane Kruger was a bad choice to play Helen, though Rose Byrne as the Priestess was perfect. Orlando Bloom was just insipidly annoying and a terrible choice to play Paris. If I were Hector, I would have handed Paris to the Greeks as a sacrifice. So many other great actors and great scenes in a not-so-great film. It's a mixed bag, that one.

Why is it a guilty pleasure, its simply a great movie
Eric Bana is an incredible actor and right about Australia. Great place and fantastic people. Time well spent.
The role he played in Star Trek was one his best performances ever (of so many great performances). It was so good that when I saw it in the theater I went home to Google the actor, which is the only reason I know it was Bana. so good.
He was wonderful as Chopper. Played Mark to a tee. "You've upset your mum." Aussie movies are great!

Eric is such a sincere professional actor. And yet no 'ego' . How is that possible. Paul Hogan and Mel Gibson are in that same Australian 🇦🇺 Legends meeting the world, head on, brilliant 💎 talents.

Great in Troy great in Star Trek great in anything down to earth too
Great actor. "Black Hawk Down", "Munich", "The Time Traveler's Wife". "Troy", "The Dry" (so good, deserves a wider audience)
Eric Bana is a great actor and always a joy to watch in his films.
It was so nice to see an actor who is not full of himself, sort of guy you could meet at a bar and have a beer
Aussie legend. Chopper
The Dry was excellent. Highly recommended. He was a producer I’m the film.

My favorite Eric Bana movie is "The Time Traveler's Wife." I watch it every Christmas season and always cry to think how great it could be to go back for a moment and meet your family. But I watch anything with Eric Bana in it.

That was so good, but so sad, too. He was great in it.
I bumped into him by chance in front of a 5 star Hotel in Munich a few years ago, where he made himself available for selfies with his (mainly female) fans. He couldn't have been more accomodating and patient! A really down to earth guy!
I always laugh with my brother about how long he chews the rice for at the end of Black Hawk Down. Such a great movie. But go and watch the scene when he's talking to Josh Hartnett at the end and eating rice.
Great actor, terrific guy. I enjoyed both The Dry movies, can't wait for the next installment.
Closed Circuit and The Time Travelers Wife are very underrated films. He's very good in both. A very good actor.
If Bana is in it, I'm watching it. "Hanna" (2011) is amazing too.
Eric Bana! Is so cool! Had no idea he's from Croatia. Loved he and Ricky Gervais in Funny People! Hilarious!

I love how he talks up Australia!! A lot of Aussies seem to go O.S and forget where they came from and I can’t stand it 🇦🇺👍
The Dry was so good. Can't wait. Bana has done so many great films. First heard about him from an Australian film Chopper. ✌️❤️🙏
Pity that “Chopper” doesn’t get the accolades it deserves - truly astounding performance of the real life Chopper Read
Eric Banna impossible not to love an Australian treasure and the Saints is the best AFL team.
The best Bruce Banner among the three.
lol that was such a fun interview towards the end. diving into being a long suffering fan of a team that never wins.
His command of accents is impressive
As someone who supports the Sydney Swans, I can honestly say we have been part of the GF when we have lost by a nail, and one where we got blown out of the water. Neither is good. 😢 But thankfully we have also won close ones too. 😍 They changed the rule since that St Kilda draw and you go into extra time if there is a draw in the GF now.
Loved his movie about his own race car ...

His dad must go for Hawks?? Champion
Maaaark “Chopper” Read in the building!!!!!!!😂😂😂😂❤
no troy questions??!!! wow
Movies had sucked for quite awhile. Then Black Hawk Down came out. I literally sat on the edge of my seat once the action started until the end.
"What's your name?" "Poida."
I've always read war books, read "Black Hawk Down" when it came out, thought it was great. I was convinced there was no way a movie could do it justice. Boy was I wrong; I think the movie is better than the book, thanks in large part to Bana's performance.
Today days old when I found out Eric Bana was Australian 🤯
😂 “It was my understanding that there would be no math.”

Please do make the effort to visit Australia. Well worth it
Munich is underrated AF.
I watched Force of Nature, The Dry 2 last night via ... an online source. It was excellent. Highly recommend it. And it has Anna Torv in it as well. 4 Stars.

The makers of the movie profited from you watching, of course.
can it get any more Aussie than Eric banner, AFL, Aussie muscle cars, in the most Australian movie that exists.."The castle"..and the only guy who could play the most Aussie character of all...chopper.
There is no way the saints were winning that drawn game. the energy swung again in the last 30 seconds.
This is my safety, sir.
wow he is a handsome man. my fav role of his is Nero is Star Trek. So good.
Should have talked about Troy and Chopper, two other great films
Munich is fantastic even though it takes a lot of liberty with the actual events
Quite an actor, and bit of a storyteller
Well this is my safety
Eric actually started his career as a TV comedian in Australia. 1972
Fight until the death. There is no falling on your sword.

To Chris, I ask. Why are we fans? I am a Cal Bears fan (actually, I am a Baby Bear, which means it is in my blood, literally, as that is where my parents went to university; I am actually a Golden Gator SFSU); I have a tattoo of Cal on my arm. I was a 12-year-old kid running onto the field after the Play in '82. There are three things I want to see or know before I die. I want to know if there are UFOs, what is on the other side (after death), and if Cal will win (go) the Rose Bowl in my lifetime. Now, with all of that said. What makes someone want to have their ashes tossed on Tightwade Hill after they die so they can watch Cal football for the rest of time? Their history. All of the wins and the losses. I love Cal because they "haven't." Now, if asked, I would say a game of almost is always going to be better than a game of not even close; it just sounds horrible. I ask if you were happy watching the Patriots get blown out anytime they got to the Super Bowl. Do you want the feeling that you were not ready versus not good enough? Because a not-ready team loses every time, and not good enough loses by a little every time.
St Kilda made three grand finals in two years and won none of them. If that doesn’t put you on top of the pain ranking I don’t know what will.

There's a difference between Trekkies & Trekkers. Trekkers enjoy watching Star Trek. Trekkies enjoy being Star Trek.
If Eric wants an English football team - follow Middlesbrough - we were the first team to go to three consecutive Wembley finals and lose all three and get relegated the same season!
Wait. Eric Bana is Australian? When did this happen?
Sorry, Eric. The Saints aren't even close this season.
Read Black Hawk Down. The movie was not accurate at all. If you read the book you’ll get an unreal interpretation of how screwed up that mission really was.
