A takeaway from this scene that this clip doesn't show because it cuts off too soon is, Hector tries to retaliate by throwing a spear at Achilles but, it's thrown at such a slower velocity that Achilles just turns himself sideways to dodge it. So in other words: Hector has to get the momentum of being on horseback and, get even closer to achieve even a fraction of the same throw Achilles just performed.

In alot of ways he mirrored Achilles; and I think that was the point of his character in both the book and the movie. It almost seemed that Hector was the man that Achilles could have been if he hadn't spent his whole life chasing glory. Conversely, if Hector had dedicated himself more to the art of war instead of becoming a leader for the army and for his people as well as pursuing a love interest, he may have been every bit as horrifying and deadly as Achilles on the battlefield. In the book of course there was alot more divine intervention, but Hector was mostly just a normal ass guy that held his own against the best of Sparta.

They made Achilles OP but Hector realllllly wasnt that far below him. Even in their duel there is a moment in which they zoom in on Achilles and he is breathing heavy and has a face that realizes this is a REAL fight and he's being put to work. Even managed to scratch his armor and Achilles is like "the fuck?" So idk, i feel like he had somewhat of a chance, if only a small one

The film has many small flaws like that, all of which really add up. Idk how I would have directed this scene personally, but not like they did it.

You don't need to know the distance he threw it. This scene demonstrated that Achilles was capable of such a throw that no other mortal man could accomplish. He killed someone with his spear and the approaching Trojans could not immediately retaliate because even their best soldier, Hector, did not have the strength to return such a throw. Even when Hector finally comes within his range for a spear throw, it is so slow compared to the throw by Achilles that all he had to do was move his head slightly to the side to dodge it. The distance is irrelevant.

Back then,if Hector had turned tail,what would his life have been like? No,he HAD to go on no matter what,the brave part is he did it without whining or crying.

Awesome shot 🥃😁

At that velocity and the design of the spearhead, it would've pierced his armor anyways.

i always thought Brad performed this roll beautifully and gracefully. (I also think most of that muscle is NOT editing and stuff.) He really does work out and keep healthy/fit, aside from acting, of course.

I thought he was too small for the roll...Please don't come back with the "But he was a half God"....he had magnanimity. He commanded respect. Pitt could be any action star but for this roll he is still only like 165 LBS....Just not what I pictures having read and studied the Iliad.

Of course he worked out for this role!!! Brad Pitt was always ripped as fuck in this era.. just look at Fight Club!!! His muscles are NOT CGI!!!

wouldn't it be fun to go back in time and show the good guys how to make muskets.

I liked Hector way more as a character. He was a good son, warrior and husband.

Director: you got the role this gonna be huge for you! Actor: Yes I have been waiting for this for my whole life! So what’s my part then? Director; Achilles throws a spear it hits you in particular and that’s it. Actor: what you mean that’s it? Director: I’m afraid that’s it.

Well I don't think he would, since there was a prophecy that said Achilles would die soon after he'd killed Hector. Probably the reason he allows Hector to live in this scene as well.

I doubt if Achilles could tell between Hector and Tecton at that distance, especially with all mean wearing armor! I don't even think Hector and Achilles have met before to recognize each other, they've just heard each others' names!

That was a hell of a spear throw 😳 if i can say so myself

Achilles defies the laws of physics! Impressive.

This scene was great. it would have been perfect if they have Hector's point of view looking at how far where the spear came from.

Y'all seem to be more concerned about the aim. Have y'all even considered the power/force behind that spear? I mean it picked a man from his horse and sent him flying backwards. I think that was what got Hector so awestruck.

Realistically a javelin from any distance hitting him in the chest at full gallop would have done that. With him at full gallop that javelin hit him even harder then achilles threw it.

And it's physically impossible. Most of the energy could of course have come from the fast movement. So the rider impaled himself on the spear. That's the genius of the Huns. They knew that the power of the bow adds up with the powerr of the fast horse they ride.

I love how Ulysses stuck around to see the shot. It was like, "they don't have movie theaters yet so I can't afford to miss this shit".

you, you, ......sack of wine..!!! always makes me laugh

Achilles could have aimed at Hector but he knew killing the boss' mob first grants more XP. Truly a pro gamer move!

Espectacular

Thanks to this solo kill Hector told his army to finally start using shields properly- in the front towards enemy not as umbrella against the sun , and later in the movie not a single troijan would die from the enemy thrown spear. Hector 1:0 Achilles

This whole movie was basically about how the gods doomed Troy if you think about it. Hector advises against everything his father does but the gods said otherwise.

Wordless message has been recieved 😎

perfect

Then Hector thought: Maybe I should send Angelina Jolie's lawyer instead?

In case you're not impressed enough, homeboy also went down two steps during his throwing motion.

That's our neeraj choopra. 👍👍
