I loved the fight scene choreography, and just how over the top everything was. Did anyone else see Spartacus do his little whirly-sword maneuver?

Looks like some intern at Starz is trying to make the "Spartacus Meme Generator" a thing: https://www.facebook.com/spartacus.starz/app_118812394958487 I really hate when shows try to do this. Workaholics tried to do it, but they could never capture the subtle and layered humor of say "Bachelor Frog" or "Bad Luck Brian"

I love all the brotastic combo takedowns they're throwing in this season. Watching Spartacus take that one guy out with a flying leg sweep got me thinking about old school WWF wrestlers, and now I can't look at Gannicus without thinking of Shawn Michaels: Or hearing his theme song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lUupa6z2WQ

The "undefeated Gaul" sure does get his rear end kicked a lot.VDay posted:Is the dude playing the guy that Caesar befriended/tricked Robert Redford's son or something? I seriously can't not see him as that whenever he's in a scene and it's distracting as hell. Chef Bromden fucked around with this message at 23:28 on Feb 23, 2013 |

Crassus' before and after. I had seen some of the special features about their bootcamp, but it seemed like everyone else came in with a base level of fitness. This dude couldn't even do 10 sit ups. Chef Bromden fucked around with this message at 11:26 on Feb 24, 2013 |

Scuzzywuffit posted:The other thing I would be down for is having the cast completely switch genres and make like a medical or legal drama, except they're entering the courtroom/operating room still decked out in full gladiator attire and throwing in as many memorable lines as possible. Everybody else in the show is dressed completely normally and nobody comments on this. "The Patient is mired in PISS and poo poo and you talk of HMO's? We must spread cheek and ram home endoscope, and seize polyps this day!"

Now I'm just imagining him double wielding scalpels while the camera zooms in in slow motion on the patient's gallbladder.

Irish Joe posted:So that's why Spartacus wore snake armor all season! I was wondering if there was some significance to his sigil. There is a basis in fact for this as well. Legend has it that one night a snake coiled itself around Spartacus' face as he slept. His wife was a priestess of Dionysus, and snakes are pretty important to followers of Dionysus, so she interpreted the snake as a lucky sign, an omen that her husband would become powerful. After the escape from the ludus her preaching and prophecies may have contributed to Spartacus' leadership and ability to recruit slaves by lending him a mythical quality. Dionysus was used both as a patron saint (of sorts) for Thracians and the poor and enslaved of Rome, so it was a pretty important part of Spartacus' identity.

I'll second Centurion. It's good for what it is, Fassbender is great, and it's free on netflix

Imagine what Spartacus would be like if they spent $6 million an episode. They could fill an actual arena with bloodthirsty topless spectators and the actresses wouldn't have to share merkins.

I really hoped there would be a coda depicting this, and either Nasir or Agron would be the ones to execute Crassus. Considering that Crasus' final battle was at Carrhae which is right on the border of Syria and Turkey, and Nasir was Syrian I figured it would work.
