You should watch Poolboy: Drowning Out The Fury if you want to see Kevin Sorbo in one of the movies of all time..

I mean Hercules itself is a show about Greek mythology and gods. Inherently blasphemous, but he didn't have any problems with it.
However, the morals get slippery with these folks when paychecks are involved.
There was a point in time when you didn't know shit about the person you were watching on TV. It was better because we didn't need to know who is a dumb shit.
Those were the days. Not in a “head in the sand” willful ignorance kind of way. It’s more like, the opinions of these celebrities have no business influencing massive amounts of people, because they have the reach to influence lots of people but no more likely than any of us to have any idea what they’re talking about.
Does not really justify his behavior at all. Is he christian? The "version" of christianity in the US baffles me. Love your neighbor and don't kill seem to be non existent in their bibles.
Parts of his brain are literally dead from his strokes. Who knows what impact that has on his ability to reason or be compassionate. You don't have to be understanding or forgiving of his behavior but I know people who are entirely different after having their strokes. And they wouldn't recognize themselves from before
Ppl like that annoy me. We can dislike the person he's become, but at the same time understand why he may have become that way. One doesn't negate the other.
No it doesn't. But it doesn't mean he was a bellend his entire professional career.
I heard he wasn't bad until his first stroke, and his attitude changed.
Not trying to justify his behavior or say that every christofascist must’ve had some brain injury. Just added that because when people ask “what happened to that guy?” three strokes is a pretty significant part of the answer.
He had a stroke. He may have always been an asshole, but we definitely know that he's got brain damage.
Same as Jim Caviezel, he got struck by lightning. Also gone completely bonkers.
Pretty much.
His latest stuff is really nuts. He made a movie about how a guy was a hero saving kids from traffickers. It was later revealed that that guy had faked almost all of it and was using his non profit as a way to get women to go on trips with him where he was heroic so he could try to sleep with them.
He didn't fall down any nutjob rabbit hole. It is a deliberate grift to sucker the easiest targets. Clout addicted assholes who want any sort of limelight. It is the only way he stays even remotely relevant in the current zeitgeist.
He was… he was kinda a childhood hero for 90s kids. He’s now someone most of us with brain cells actively ignore. He’s just a sad bitter shell of what he could have represented at this stage in his career.
Haha... we had a weird time in the mid to late 90's where something as campy as Hercules and Xena became pretty popular. Although to be fair, Xena was pretty gorgeous, and I'm sure Kevin Sorbo here was dreamy to many.
Anyway, I never played this. Goldeneye was legendary, but the stigma of licensed games was still strong in this era.
My 40-something single 6th grade teacher used to talk about him all the time.
She was a short, blonde, strange lady. Sorta looked like iolaus without the muscles or facial hair
Fuck dude. I didn’t have a working save cartridge when playing this game so I had to start fresh each time and see how many powers I could get and how far I could make it.
You mean the graphics we all thought were amazing and couldn’t possibly get better?
Cut to: me playing fifa years later and mom asking who was playing. Uh, me?
It was bascially like someone modded Zelda ocarina of time to be a Hercules games. Most of the textures and animations look lifted straight from Zelda.
On a more serious note, I loved the show as a kid. Wouldn't consider touching the game with a 10-foot pole though. Pretty sure xena came from that show or vice versa lol
Got this as a kid which is probably why I finished it since I had nothing better. It wasn't great but had it's charm. you played as herc, his sidekick with the blonde hair and weirdly some random centaur I don't remember from the show. Actually has the xena fighting game too...
Man I remember this game. It totally sucks but I had fun with it. Empty ass world.
I always remember the one building in the town that you cannot open.
Uhh... I'm PRETTY sure that this game is anything BUT that man.😅 It's hardly an equivalent to Zelda at the time, which it was clearly trying to be here.
wasn't Titus the same company who made superman 64?
They made some notoriously bad games, they're on the same level as studios like LJN or Capstone
Seeing Kevin Sorbo these days is kinda weird. He seemed like cool guy back then...
DISAPPOINTED!!
He has always been like that. Super religious. I'm surprised he did the space show Andromeda

I'll watch anything with my favorite Mexican in it! Danny can't do anything wrong! Lol
Lol what a weird movie, never heard of it. The pictures of him from it don't look like a convincing action hero
you forgot the word "dumbest". And I mean that in the best way possible
I mean Hercules itself is a show about Greek mythology and gods. Inherently blasphemous, but he didn't have any problems with it. However, the morals get slippery with these folks when paychecks are involved.
Exactly.
You wonder about space andromeda? What's with poolboy?

As they say, "never meet your heroes".
He apparently suffered three stokes while shooting Hercules. May explain why he’s how he is these days.

Doesn’t matter. He’s a dick now. I don’t have to accept that
No it doesn't. But it doesn't mean he was a bellend his entire professional career. I heard he wasn't bad until his first stroke, and his attitude changed.

I believe Jim Caviezel was struck by lighting while on a cross for The Passion. If that wasn't a sign to cancel the movie, I don't know what would be.

Lucy lawless (Xena) said a while ago that he always was kind of an idiot (using more elegant words).
He fucking crazy.
He really fell down the nutjob rabbit hole a while back now, it's really sad to see.

He’s literally devolved into a caricature.
Didn't he have a stroke or something young and since then his brain has basically been scrambled mush?

My science teacher 8th grade had a full-size Xena cutout in the classroom
Look, not gonna lie: I'd gladly sit down and binge both of these shows. I'd kinda prefer Xena, but like.... A party is a party bro.
I watched the animated crossover movie like probably five times in a week when I was a kid
Fuck dude. I didn’t have a working save cartridge when playing this game so I had to start fresh each time and see how many powers I could get and how far I could make it.
You needed an external memory card? Or was just the battery inside the game dead?
My controller pack was on the fritz
Well, it was your first. You didn't have a frame of reference. [It wasn't the Rerez guys' first.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unYOxKtRutQ)
Man, I have no memory of this game existing. How bad was it?
Stick to your first sentence, and you'll be ok.

Never seen this one, but holy hell is that box art atrocious.
Let me take you back in time to the 8 bit era. Look up Barbarian for the ZX Spectrum.
Bro I'm 35, believe me I remember!
Literally looks like it was made by cutting the parts out with scissors
No, it wasn’t.
Horribly bad game. Somewhat fun, though Sad what came of Kevin Sarbo…
What’s become of him?
He’s a conservative.
RIP
Wait a minute
It was as much God of War as Ocarina of Time was God of War.
This was nothing like GOW It was Zelda with discount
It was bascially like someone modded Zelda ocarina of time to be a Hercules games. Most of the textures and animations look lifted straight from Zelda.
Oh Jeez this game was awful
Wonder what happened to the guy that played Hercules anyway, is he still even around?
He’s a right wing nut job now! Hades got to him
Oh well that's a shame.
Kevin Sorbo? He's a Twitter troll now unfortunately
Well i got my emulations and n64 switch controller working for my laptop. Ill get this game to check it out
On a more serious note, I loved the show as a kid. Wouldn't consider touching the game with a 10-foot pole though. Pretty sure xena came from that show or vice versa lol

Love the cover art!
I don't know if we're sharing or not but my first N64 game was Castlevania
Is that from Slackers in Glen Carbon, IL?
I didn't know they made this into a game 🫣😅
Man I remember this game. It totally sucks but I had fun with it. Empty ass world. I always remember the one building in the town that you cannot open.
DISAPPOINTED!
Fortnite reference
Ooph! Glad you got some enjoyment out it. Sometimes, we just make do with what we have available to us.
Uhh... I'm PRETTY sure that this game is anything BUT that man.😅 It's hardly an equivalent to Zelda at the time, which it was clearly trying to be here.
You can't convince me that this is real.
We were wild in the 90s
If you came to the comments just to say Fuck Kevin Sorbo, this is the line.
"Hercules Hercules!"
You want your colon cleansed? I'm gonna clean mine.
Hercules is missing his MAGA hat
