Finished season two and am halfway through season one... really, really enjoyed the back story provided by season two, what a world it must have been back then... i'm officially a huge fan now.
Season one, while lacking the production values (particularly the cgi) of forthcoming seasons, may be my favorite so far and it mostly has to do with Andy Whitfield... he just has a much bigger range of emotion than the new guy, he also actually looks like he could be Bulgarian/Thracian, the new guy lacks his range and looks like just another pretty boy englishman. The fight choreography is truly incredible, some of the very best sequences you'll find anywhere... spartacus and crixxus(sp?) vs theocales was brutal or the free for all in the circle of fire at the end of season two... awesome. But like i said in an earlier post, season three REALLY seems tamed down so far... way less gore and sex, plus this new guy simply doesnt have Whitfields gravitas, not at all, what a shame the guy died of cancer. |
Without any spoilers, is the guy with the bum leg (name escapes me) still on the show? He is my favorite character.

This season sucks ass. Not enough of what made the first two good to bother finishing it out.
I'm done. |

It still has some potential. I'll see it out. |
It's different, not as enjoyable, but still watchable.

I've been REALLY disappointed in the last two episodes, its like they're just mailing in the final season, i'd be willing to bet the original lineup of directors and writers arent even working on it anymore.
The dialogue has gotten reeeal corny and clunky. The fight scenes are suffering, last week when Spartacus, Gannacus and co. are ambushed by the romans when the ship docked, Gannacus goes for a guys legs with his sword and the guy leaps forward in a somersault long before the sword gets anywhere near him, it was painfully obvious and they just went ahead with it. The new black chick who plays Crixxus girl flat out SUCKS as an actress. Even the costumes are lacking believability... too clean when they should look dirty, too dirty when they should be cleaner, too many extras in identical, cookie cutter getups. Its too bad because the first two seasons were ****ing excellent, new episode tonight at 8, but i'm preparing to be disappointed again. |
Last episode on at 10 central tonight, i almost forgot.
Its a two part episode and i'm only catching the last 15 minutes of the second to last show -drats-... looking forward to the last episode of what was a KILLER series, atleast for a while. ed* they've apparently changed tactics and are only doing the second to last show tonight, i SWEAR they said it was a two part finale 2 weeks ago. |
