I have to say that 90% of you seem to watch these things with the sound muted, or maybe you are alt tabbing to jot down reasons you hate life? or something.. I can't get it.

People speaking of Tiberius having no motivations for what he is doing, or that the season is "bad" because Crixus dies? It's like half of you can't tell the difference between entertainment and life.

"oh no it's impossible for a man to be ...taken... by surprise by 2 men whilst he is unarmed" come on, use your heads.


By surprise? Man? This is the hero of the Romans who has dedicated his life to warfare. He knew the boy and his goons are in there and there was already hostility in the air. Yes, then I find it unbelievable he is taken by surprise or that he walks around unarmed. And even unarmed he should have no trouble dealing with them. This whole episode was on a new low level of crap. Everything about it was just poorly done

In terms of bullshit this has been the only thing that wasn't actually bullshit.

Really... How believable is it that some of the characters somehow manage to best 10-20 trained roman soldiers on their own... We know the historic figures that survived the battles/avoided confrontation. Also I find it pretty BS that the leadership of the rebelion is so centralized when in fact it was probably far more segregated.

The show is as ridicolous as it gets it's the character development that is good.


It's not that far fetched

Hah. Pretty funny write up. Should read the manga Vagabond. Totally badass.

Ok so...

1. The greatest Roman ever (and my biggest idol) got ass-raped by a whiny emo teenage boy. Nice.

2. Holy crap after all expectation the sex scene of Laeta did not disappoint.

3. Crixus... we all knew this is how it ends...farewell.

And fantastic episode again :D

This episode redeemed the season for me really. I'm not sure how the man rape can make people so uncomfortable that seem so fine with all the other rape going on in this show since the start? For one they were in camp, nobody goes around in camp with weapons drawn. Two he was outnumbered 3 to 1, two of the three were trained roman soldiers and one of them sucker punched him. Completely believable. Equally as disturbing as the other rape scenes, but completely believable.

Really sad about Crixus, but we all knew it was coming so yeah. Even though the middle of this season was pretty meh, I'm sad that the series is coming to an end. I almost don't want to watch the rest of the season. Not because I think it's bad, but because we've come some far with these characters. Such a good show even though it had it's stupid moments.

Man. I dunno... this episode was awesome and bad at the same time. I think the worst of it was how badly they rushed Crixus' march on Rome. Like, Crixus playing with fire and seeing a little fireball roll and having the idea and stuff was something that might have been cool with more time and build up but it was just tacked on and when the actual fireballs rolled I laughed.

Crixus: Haha, I will beat Rome by rolling 6 giant boulders of fire down a 20 foot hill! They will fall to the might of Crixus! RAAAUUUUURGH!
Well I guess they did beat Rome's legion but everyone knew Crassus was coming. Feel like they should have spent way more time on Crixus. Ah well, RIP Crixus you were a whiny, thick headed caveman most of Season 3 but you were still pretty cool.

Tiberius' death is going to be oh so satisfying... that guy really turned into the Joffrey of Rome.

Not only that, but the mere toddler is a fabricated character! Caesar was raped by fiction! Crixus was back stabbed by fiction! Agron was ride-by'd by fiction!

With the direction of Tiberius I don't think they are even trying to make him into Marcus, the actual son of Crassus. I read they might of named him Tiberius as to not confuse the viewer's. At this point he just seems like a complete fictional character.
It is what it is

At least I'm answering a question about why the general attitude in this thread is angry/unbelieving of what happened to Caesar. What are you doing? + Show Spoiler +
Direct purpose to removing head from ass.

For all we know, Tiberius was real and did rape Caesar. Ceasar, later, purged him out of history :3

For what it's worth I think the actor of Tiberius is doing a great job. The directors aren't afraid of doing all these grisly and disturbing shots, the rape scenes included. Obviously it's dramatized, but it's not being tamed either, which in the end makes the show better and more memorable.

The only thing I was confused about this episode is how Tiberius seems to walk around with a constant hard-on, always ready.

With the way they're setting up the conflicts between Caesar and the Crassus, I find that very plausible. It's not like they finish off Spartacus while Tiberius gets taken care of and everyone is like, "OK, good job everyone, let's go home!" The power struggle between Caesar, Pompey and Crassus has a lot of potential as well.

In this thread and beyond, everyone seems to assume Spartacus will die. In the records, they never actually find his body, so they might very well cop out with him, Agron and Gannicus riding towards the sunset.

Spartacus will probably die, but to save many of his people. Some kind of heroic shit like that. It will be manly, it will be sad, and it will be glorious.

No way... Spartacus is not going to die. Everyone else will probably die and it'll be tragic but Spartacus and his Roman girlfriend will marry and he'll be like "even doe u r a roman, I luv u... all humans r da same."

While its true they never found his body its also true...

That there was a last battle. The slaves that didn't die where captured and crucified. I cant see Spartacus running away to die an old man on a farm.... then again I didn't see Cesar getting raped lol.
