Caesar's "oysters" line reminds me of the progressive-for-the-time scene that was cut from Kubrick's Spartacus because people were scared of the gay back then. I guess Caesar only wants the women  No man can withstand Rome!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jc3b7MP4pyw

the posted:JESUS CHRIST the entire second half of that episode I was on the edge of my seat literally shouting at the screen for Gannicus not to die. That was such a suspenseful episode. And that guy stabbing himself in the face was so loving Yeah the Donar fight was amazing since it followed the theme of deciding to die with dignity and also cheating the Romans of any satisfaction even in death. Also great that they decided to let the Romans and Crassus win the scheme war, with Spartacus being put back into a dangerous position. etalian fucked around with this message at 22:03 on Mar 9, 2013 |

If they do a Caesar spinoff I hope it's just him brutally owning people like he did Tiberius in this episode. I would watch that.

Here's something funny, I was looking up some stuff on IMDB and discovered that Anna Hutchison (who plays Laeta) was the Yellow Power Ranger in the Jungle Fury series.

Okay first off - I LOVE this show. It's literally the first thing I do every Saturday Morning. The constant jumping to attack makes me laugh so hard every single time, because if there is anything I've learned from decades of fighting games (Street Fighter Ex plus Alpha -what?), it's that excessive jumping will SO get you killed. haha! *edit -fixed mispelling DoggPickle fucked around with this message at 04:47 on Mar 10, 2013 |

I was watching this episode again, and just noticed, that for the first time in a while we saw Crixus look loving hardcore again when he was fighting the Romans. Since Vengeance he's been looking more and more like a washed out alcoholic.

Such a good episode. I spent the last half of it expecting Gannicus to sacrifice himself to save the slave girl, which I think was the writers were aiming for. But with only four episodes left, major characters are going to die like, every single night now. Someone should keep a running list of major, named characters as they are killed off. Just so long as Gannicus somehow survives everything. Also, despite struggling through his fights this episode, Caesar manages to make himself even more badass by just straight up saying, "I'm a badass, and here's why." Also, lets talk about how Laeta is, at every turn, treated the worst. Her husband murdered before her eyes, she's imprisoned in her own home, all her friends - literally everyone she knows killed, she's abused, threatened, nearly raped multiple times. Then finally she is set free, given a warm bath, only to be betrayed, sold to pirates to be raped, branded. Then just stabbed in the gut for good measure. It reminds me of that scene in Django Unchained (Django spoilers), where the lawyer is used as a human shield, and gets shot at a comedically large number of times, like thirty or forty

MrHat posted:The hosed up thing is that the Romans had such an advanced legal system that the owner of the slave could prosecute for damage to property if one of their slaves was raped (without the consent of their owner). How progressive of them. Also I'm ferociously sure than Gannicus and the slave girl are going to survive all this bullshit. One thing that I would like to see It's detective show in the mold of Lindsey Davies books but with the photography and backstabbing of Spartacus. hump day bitches! fucked around with this message at 15:12 on Mar 10, 2013 |

 Is Brad Caesar an Australian actor? Because his facial movement in delivering this line looks very Australian. Possibly it's universal and I'm just used to seeing Australians pull gloating arsehole-ish lines like this. (edit = arsehole, not rear end in a top hat. I have been away from Sydney too long...)

I guess it has more in common with those German RPGs in which any sort of battle mishap leads to stat destroying injuries. Or maybe Crixus is a reverse Samson in which his power increases inverse to his hair?

Pretty sure Tiberius is going to get dominated by Caesar soon. The kid is going for Ashur like manipulations and everything and doesn't have the experience or tact for it. To be fair he did get pretty screwed up by his dad

Alchenar posted:carnificina -ae, f. the work of a hangman; execution, torture. It's pretty over the top in typical Spartacus fashion but the Roman triumph was pretty much a happy parade except for the whole killing all the prisoners at the end. Pretty much a way to show off terrifying enemies being reduced to state of pathetic submission before getting ritually killed.
