8 Hidden Messages You Never Noticed In Famous Movies

0. "Kennedy" - Gladiator (2000)

Gladiator Ending

This "hidden message" is kind of bizarre, and the reason it doesn't make the main list is because I can't find any hard evidence for it anywhere online, despite the fact that it's plastered all over the internet on various lists regarding "hidden messages" as being completely legitimate.

That's to say, according to various sources, you can glimpse the word "Kennedy" popping up in a couple of key scenes over the course of Ridley Scott's movie Gladiator, in reference to JFK. I attempted to track these moments down on the DVD, but with no real clue as to where or what I was really looking for, nothing came of the search.

According to these sources, though, there's something about the end of Gladiator that mirrors the real Kennedy assassination. I'm not sure what that's supposed to mean, nor can I really imagine anybody slipping the entire word into the frame of a Ridley Scott movie without the man noticing. What do you think? Have you heard this before?
