Yes, like that gladiators on foot fought with pseudo-cavalry helmets without the face mask so that everybody could see their faces (if one thing about gladiators at that time is for sure it's that the most uniformly protected spot was the face (exc. retiarius)) in more or less fantasy armor without a referee in sight and using whatever weapon/shield/etc. combination someone on the set thought looked cool. Ack. Saw it once on TV and will never watch it again.
Cheers,
