At the end of the play, Act 5 scene 5, Antony says:
"This was the noblest Roman of them all.All the conspirators save only he
Did that they did in envy of great Caesar.
He only in a general honest thought
And common good to all, made one of them.
His life was gentle, and the elements
So mixed in him that Nature might stand up
And say to all the world, "This was a man."
Basically, Antony calls Brutus the noblest Roman.
What else can I help you with?
What battle plan does Cassius propose?
Cassius wants to wait where they are so that they are nicely rested and fully energized while Antony's troops would come tired. The battle would then be won by them. On the other hand, Brutus feels that they should march to Antony. This is because the people living in that area were only on their side as they were forced to be. Thus, if Antony marched towards them, they would not be able to recruit many people on the way making their army very big and unbeatable. Also, they would be well refreshed. In the end, it was Brutus' plan that was chosen.
How is the argument between Brutus and Cassius different from the one between Octavius and Antony?
· Antony and Octavius are way more formal with each other. They end up questioning each other's friendships and trust. Though they say they are friends, there issues between them of mistrust and tension. They butt heads about who's going to be the ruler of their army. They then decide there can only be one ruler. Of course, they're going to argue on who's going to be better. They don't worry about winning the fight or the consequences of getting defeated as much as who's in charge. Teamwork doesn't seem to be an option with them. · On the other hand, Brutus and Cassius are truly friends. They respect each other. They were able to work through their argument a lot better than Octavius and Antony. They don't worry about who's going to be the main ruler, but they worry about what will happen if they get defeated by Octavius and Antony. Teamwork between them seems prominent.

What battle did Octavian an Mark Anthony win together?
Octavian and Antony won the battle of Philippi together. That was the battle that put an end to Brutus and Cassius.
What point is Antony making when he was speaking against Brutus and the conspirators?
If you mean his "Friends! Romans! Countrymen!" speech, he is not so much making a point as crying havoc and loosing the dogs of war, as he said he would. The speech is a remarkable appeal to the emotions of the Roman mob, not to their reason. When you sneer sarcastically "and sure, he is an honourable man" the emotional response of the hearer is to agree "right, he is no honourable man" without thinking. Brutus is certainly an honourable man; Antony himself says so at the end of the play after Brutus is dead and no longer a threat. Antony is not making a point, but trying to get the mob into an irrational rage which will hunt the conspirators out of the city and give Antony the opportunity to replace Caesar as dictator.

Is Brutus displayed as a vilain or a hero?
In the play Julius Caesar, by William Shakespeare, Brutus is displayed as a tragic hero. All tragic heroes are brought down by their own hubris and it is no different for Brutus in this play. Brutus, did of course, betray and murder his closest friend Julius Caesar, but he did so for what he believed to be noble purposes. Brutus did not kill, or more correctly participate in Caesar's murder, out of malice, he loved Caesar but loved the republic of Rome more. His actions were in the defense of the Republic of Rome and because Marcus Brutus was loved by the people of Rome, the murder of Caesar was more readily accepted by the people. Brutus' hubris was not that he killed Caesar but that he misjudged the characters of those around him. Brutus was an idealist and believed as much in the goodness of people as he did the Republic of Rome. He missed judged Cassius motives in the beginning of the play and later misjudged Marc Antony. Brutus own air of superiority is in the end what brought him down, but he is not a villain but rather a tragic hero.
What did Caesar say at the end of the play Julius Caesar?
He said, "Etu, Brute?" (or, "And you, Brutus?") The last thing Julius Caesar said was, 'E tu' brutus'? meaning: you too, Brutus? However, Casesar died before the end of the play. no you got one right he did said Etu Bruts but that means you to burts ok! First off, this wasn't the end of the play, this was right around the middle of it, but they were his last words. Secondly, he say "Et tu, Brute?" which is Latin for "And you, Brute?" or Brutus. Just like in Spanish the informal use of "you" is "tu".
When Brutus delivers a soliloquy at the end of Act?
In the beginning of the play, Brutus is trusted by Caesar, and they have a filial sort of relationship. But Brutus plays a large role in Caesar's assassination. Caesar's dying words are, "Et tu, Brute?" (you too, Brutus?) because he can hardly believe that someone he loved and was close to would murder him. Brutus reasons, "Not that I loved Caesar less, but I loved Rome more." He thinks that killing Caesar was for the greater good, and if you've read the play, you would realize that Brutus's fatal flaw is his nobility. He overthinks everything, always searching for the noble, honorable, "right" thing to do. It was also mentioned that perhaps Brutus was truly Caesar's son, of an affair. At Brutus's funeral oration, Antony says Brutus was "Caesar's angel," although it is never blatantly explained why Caesar trusts and loves Brutus so much, then is betrayed. Although Brutus's honor to Caesar is strong in the beginning, it wavers enough for him to take part in Caesar's murder, but then he sees the effects because of it. By the end of the play, Brutus sees that Rome in the hands of Antony, Octavius, etc is worse than it would have been under Caesar's ruling, and Brutus commits suicide. Note that this question does not have anything to do with the question. The question entails the relationship between BRUTUS and CASSIUS, while this answer is telling the relationship between Brutus and Caeser.

How would Julius Caesar play end if there was no Antony?
There are many possible and conceivable answers to this rather silly question. The inevitable truth would be that Brutus and Cassius would become the rulers of Rome, however, whether these two would get on or not would be a factor of this fictional circumstance. Also, Cassius may have gone on to kill Brutus himself, but honestly I think there is no point pondering over this question as it is stupid. so thar
Why is Julius Caesar a tragedy?
The tragedy in Julius Caesar lies not in the death of Julius Caesar, but in the failure of Brutus and Cassius to adapt themselves to conditions after his death. Cassius fails, not because he lacks ability, but because he allows his prejudice against Caesar to impact his character, He also fails because he allows his friendship with Brutus to overrule his better judgment. Brutus Fails because he is an idealist who lacks the practical judgment to be a good leader.
Why do brutus and Cassius kill themselves?
Brutus asks Strato to kill him so Brutus wouldn't have to die by the enemies sword *<edit> Because the last answer was rather strange I decided to help. Cassius killed himself once he thought his friend (Titinius or something like that) was kidnapped by the enemy. He asked Pindarus (or how ever you spell his name) to kill him. Brutus kills himself later (thanks to the help of Strato) cause he's sure they're are going to lose to Antony. That's how it works in the play Julius Caesar but for all I know the top answer could be true. I rarely look into things deep. 2nd edit brutus kills himself because he feels bad for killing Caesar for no good reason. Cassius kills himself b/c he thought titunius was kidnapped and dead. after all this, Antony, octavius and lepidus are in charge of rome
