Re: Spartacus Blood and Sand

Sweet!! I knew I kept my Netflix account for something other than catching up on 24.

Though that is a noble endeavor in and of itself.

Saw Spartacus on Encore this weekend. It was OK. Gladiator knock-off without the acting talent. Lots of nudity. The blood-splatters were ridiculous.

First episode was ok, nothing special. It's no Rome or True Blood that's for damn sure.

Give a couple episodes a shot and form your own opinion. I thought it was pretty good.

Much to my surprise I'm really enjoying it as well. It has improved dramatically since that first episode, and they've toned down the silly video game blood geyser effects.
 
Re: Spartacus Blood and Sand

Not sure how anyone can think True Blood is better than Spartacus. This showing FING ROCKS! All caught up on the netflix as of this past Saturday. Cannot wait for this Friday!!!!!

The **** on you to suggest such a thing! Haha just kidding. Ever since I started watching this all other shows seem to pale in comparison. None of them have the visceral violence, sexuality and tense unpredictability of Spartacus.

It has the best lines, I swear. After the first episode I was hooked, but I did think some of it was pretty lame. Since then, the show improved remarkably. One of the few programs that isn't afraid to kill off main characters. It actually makes you scared every time someone gets in a fight.

I posted this in the art forum too, but I think you Spartacus fans might like it:

Re: Spartacus Blood and Sand

This show only just started here in the Netherlands last Sunday. They aired the first 2 eps and I think it was great. Visually it's heavily influenced by 300, but I didn't find that to be a bad thing. I liked the extreme over the top bloodflow they kept using in fights... Sure, it's not realistic but it fitted the overall style.

I'll definitely keep watching this show!! :rock :rock :rock
 
Re: Spartacus Blood and Sand

I have the first episode that i'll probably watch today never knew about this one until The Entity told me about it, if i don't like it i'll be hunting him down. :lol

I'll sharpen my swords then just in case... If you don't like it, I say we settle this in the arena just like Spartacus!! :D
 
Re: Spartacus Blood and Sand

Deal, hides gun in coat ready to cheat. :lol

:lol well I'm not stupid of course... You know I have a shotgun... I used it to defend myself against the Armoured Beetle Of Doom...

Besides... I'm bulletproof. You better bring the Colt if you're planning to shoot me :lol

:lol served that ****** right to get his horseslong cut off.

I dig this show a lot and its not because of the sex or ultra violence either. It has definately settled into a really good groove now.
 
Re: Spartacus Blood and Sand

thank God they finally did story rather than build up to fight sequence. those high society women were hilarious.
 
Re: Spartacus Blood and Sand

The most recent episode had the most disturbing ending ever. :horror

Indeed. I cringed a little bit. I really like this show, but with the long list of others I'm trying to keep up with I always end up watching this almost before the next week's episode.

I'm still not sure where they'll go with the show now that Spartacus' wife is dead.
