Braveheart 2 is the spiritual sequel to the original Braveheart. This film is also more commonly know as The Patriot. Named so do to it being part of what seems a trilogy of war movies starring Mel Gibson to later include We Were Soldiers.
The school of thought in which a movie may approach the level of Braveheart, but may never reach it, only head towards the theoretical infinity where Braveheart resides.
It should be noted that the x-axis on which the Braveheart Asymptote exists does not necessarily refer to a single idea (i.e. quality, awesomeness, number of bagpipes) but rather everything that Braveheart is and all other movies aspire to be.
Dude 1: Independance Day was a fantastic movie, maybe better than Braveheart.
Dude 2: Unfortuntaly, that is impossible
Dude 1: Why's that?
Dude 2: Because of the Braveheart Asymptote.
Dude 1: Oh, yeah, ok I get it.
The waterless lazy-man's shower. Basically getting up out of bed, and not showering with water, soap and shampoo.
Reference: In an early scene in the movie Braveheart (1995), the young William Wallace woke up out of his makeshift bed one morning, brushed his outer forearm against his face a few times, and was ready to start his day - no brushing of his teeth, no coming his hair, or anything remotely hygienic.
I'm late for class so I'm gonna have to hurry up. I'll just take a Braveheart shower and go.
Probably one of the best movies of all time. Directed and starred in by Mel Gibson, it is a loose biography of William Wallace, the man responsible for scotland uniting and gaining it's independance from england. Trademarks of the movie are William Wallace's half blue/half white face painting at the battle of stirling, and his yell of "FREEEEEEEDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM" after being tortured nearly to death. although there are more than a few historical inacuracies it is an amazing movie that everyone should see.
"ay. fight, and you may die. run, and you'll live. at least for a while.
and then, dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!"
The moment that you stand up against what's wrong, where you fight for what's right, and you feel damn good doing it.
Symptoms lead to rubbing face paint on yourself, pacing back and forth while motivating others, and yelling FREEDOM. Often cases, you want to yell this before you beat someone's ass or do something courageous.
