Did he do anything wrong?
>>71000659
Refused to fight in the war, Murdered his father, framed Maximus. Ordered maximus to be executed, called for Maximus wife to be raped and killed and his son killed. Tried to fuck his sister. Used poison to stab Maximus when Maximus was enchained and cheated to kill Maximus infront of everyone.
Did you watch the film?

I don't see how any of that has anything to do with his question.

>framed maximus
wut, he didnt need to frame him, he was emperor then
>>71000659
plenty, he was pretty evil
>>71000659
Well done Commodus, well done...
HOWEVER
>>71000659
well he murdered his father and maximus' family, turning maximus into a slave while also threatening to kill his nephew because his sister wouldnt fuck him.

>Refused to fight in the war,
Literally nothing wrong with this
>Murdered his father,
Who was intending to destroy his family's power and relegate Commodus' position to that of a petty senator
>,framed Maximus.
Necessary evil.
>Ordered maximus to be executed,
See above
>called for Maximus wife to be raped and killed and his son killed.
This was pretty cowardly.
>Tried to fuck his sister.
Non-issue
>Used poison to stab Maximus when Maximus was enchained and cheated to kill Maximus infront of everyone.
Cowardly but reasonable
Should have just murdered him when he found out he had survived.

Roman Empire had been doing great for generations by the Emperor selecting generals as his successor. Marcus Aurelius was the last of the good emperors. Commodus was a spoiled brat who thought he deserved to be Emperor cause of his father's accomplishments, instead of Maximus, a capable leader who had proved himself in the battlefield. He murdered his father and brought the entire Roman Empire to ruin.
Seriously, the movie doesn't do justice to what a disastrous self-absorbed figure Comodus was. He tried to rename the city after himself. He's basically a Joffrey on steroids.

Egyptian royalty had sibling marriages for thousands of years. Cleopatra probably fucked all 8 of her brothers. They probably took turns.

>>71000659
He pretty much used all of Rome's reserves for the GLADIATOR games in a few days just so people can like him.

No wonder OP identifies himself with such character
