Crassus is so awesome omfg. Not only seems like a cool actor, but the character so far has been written awesomely. I echo the thoughts of others The fight with hilarus(which is what the cc says?) was so great. Also ridiculous Gannicus 4 way :byodood:

And Gannicus was always better.

Gannicus has one of the most overpowered special rules in Spartacus, followed by Spartacus. Crixus' is poo poo by comparison so its no surprise Gannicus was rolling him.

I was expecting them to pal around the city more and have more intrigue with Caesar, but nope, kills robert redford and now it seems like the show is going to be a series of fighting retreats.

Crassus obviously smelt bullshit from the Aedile's wife, but even his plan got foiled by Crixus coming back and the Gladiators all being beasts compared to legionaries.

I was loving tense in the final fight thinking a major person was going to eat it :ohdear:

Crassus runs his wife, so I think if he had a bastard by this slave lady he obviously loves she'd have to suck it up. But it could just be a figurative mom, ie slave lady takes care of him a lot.

Either way, Tiberius is a little oedipal shithead.

Gannicus owns. All the Gladiators own. Killing himself to deprive the romans of their victory kill? After essentially owning Caesar? Awesome.

I'm thinking Agron is either getting crucified or returned to Spartacus via Caesar's deal.

I also assume the minor subplot of the serial killer carving up whores in the follower camp was mainly Tiberius going a rampage in his free time?

The prostitute is the one who told Caesar that Tiberius was sneaking around Kore's tent. Presumably its also one Caesar liked banging.

So loving sad this show is done. I marked the gently caress out when Spartacus countered the sword grab and had Crassus dead to rights. Now we all know that even half killed by fighting 10 men right before, Spartacus was going to kill that motherfucker.

Stupid mooks and their spears :mad:

Gannicus' cock will rage on, forever

Absolute pinnacle of the series. The roman genius imperator who respects his opponent enough to put his entire being into killing him still underestimates Spartacus enough to have his own moved turned back on him.

I'm dumb and don't know what this is referencing but I feel like I should be watching it?

Creator of spartacus is trying to get Starz to pickup a future space marine war show. If he puts as much effort into that as he did Spartacus it will obviously loving rule.

As a spartacus aside: There are more than a handful of movies with worse fight choreography than Spartacus, like hundreds of handfuls more. Gosh all the fights ruled.

Is there a specific reason why the actor who plays Naevia changed after the first two seasons? I don't know how much the actor has anything to do with it, but she was much less annoying before the change.

On the other hand, as sad as it was what happened to Andy Whitfield, after having re-watched the series recently, i found Liam McIntyre to be much better in the role.

She got a regular job on a network show. NCIS or some poo poo.

Legionaries were also (probably) trained to basically just stay behind their shields and jab with their swords, which frustrated the ever loving poo poo out of cultures that placed importance on things like individual skill and valor in combat.

If only those cultures had learned the missile drop kick or the patented double sword jump.

He was on the A-team, he helped train people, he was a respected member of the inner circle, but he wasn't doing plans and poo poo. At the end you see him actually leading a contingent.

Spartacus has a smaller cast of characters and a vastly smaller amount of locations. Spartacus was a great show. GOT is a great show. They don't need to compete with each other. I'll display both blu rays sets proudly next to each other in my DVD rack.
