I know it didn’t need a sequel… but this Ancient Rome genre has always been seriously lacking in the modern era… so I am so pumped for it and this show tbh… Just a big history buff and Ancient Rome is probably my favorite subject within history.

    • @Jaanikins

      Thing is though, it’s about perspective. Romans have been used extensively in theatre performances and I think it serves as a great backdrop for English speaking actors as well as Latin speaking for amazing stories.
      One of my favourite series of all time is Spartacus. It’s not the most historically accurate of shows, but the acting is superb and knows how to deliver a tragic and epic vengeance story.

      @MariaMartinez-researcher Před 13 dny

      Try "I, Claudius," British TV miniseries, minimal FX, lots of drama and great acting. Or "Spartacus," the original one with Kirk Douglas; it's about enslaved gladiators revolting, but much, much more than that. "Cleopatra," "Quo Vadis," "The Robe," "Ben Hur," or any of the many movies you can find googling by 'best movies set in ancient Rome.' Check the Wikipedia article 'Sword-and-sandals" for the budget movies of the "peplum" genre. Ave!

      real ones probably had not so much "junk", but indeed they had some statues, obeliscs and specially the markers for the laps (7 I think was the traditional). Anyway the good spots were the two 180º curves, that where the spectacle (and brutal accidents) was.
