EPTI would say that this caesar might be fitting. He was known to be extravagant and phillandering. Jury still out but this season is looking much better than the last.

It was a little light on the nudity and there was as much gay sex as straight, but the plot moved along nicely and that dead Roman's wife is shaping up to be an interesting character. | ||

Caesar was in the midst of having his nuts shaved (I thought that was just pubic hair btw falling, not blood, it seemed to float but maybe I'm wrong) Tiberius walked by and said that Ceasar picked up strange desires. I see no confusion in name good sir! haha EDIT: I just started watching the first season, blood and sand, again... Andy Whitfield was the FUCKING BEST spartacus... So freaking upset he's dead, this guys voice is just not as epic at all, not as commanding... I mean he does a good job but it's not Andy. I actually thought, if they could have, a better fit would have been the actor that played Avatar (they look pretty much and act pretty much the same imo) Oops, my bad. | ||

And while I think Sam Worthington looks like he might fit, he's not the best actor, imo. I don't think he would do the role justice. | ||

Some of us don't shy away from homosexuality like a disease. Love is love, get on with it. Did it arouse me? No but the concept related and I'm glad they're not shying away from homosexuality for two reasons 1) It does good for culture to realize that both instances are love and 2) In Roman times homosexuality was a pretty big thing. | ||

If you think Spartacus is some sort of progressive left wing TV programme with social commentary on the discrimination of homosexuals in today's society, then you must be mistaken. As far as I'm aware, it is a show with excessive action and raw straight, red-blooded heterosexual man to woman love in order to attract male viewers then I think you can make a case. | ||

How could you ever get the notion that I think Spartacus is some sort of progressive left wing TV programme? Some days I read comments regarding what I post and I either shame the fact that communication suffers without proper dialogue away from text or people just seem not to grasp simple comments. I never once made the assertion that it's anything like that, I said that it's nice they don't shy away from gay love like many programming stations would just based on the controversy. I still don't see where I even alluded it had any underlying left wing allure and if that's what we call "left wing allure" in America than I'm afraid your definitions are truly so generic they lose all meaning. | ||

Whitfield did a lot better at the tortured/brooding/psychologically traumatized aspects of the character, but in terms of "action hero omfg badass kill killy kill", McIntyre pulls it off a bit better imo. Usually the former aspects are a bit harder to convey convincingly, but Whitfield just knocked that shit out of the park. | ||

The new guy has grown very well into his role. If you rewatch the first season it took 2-3 episodes before the superb acting of Whitfield became so, he was pretty weak in the beginning imo and then all of a sudden he turned into a god (the role helped  )Spartacus : Vengeance was pretty bad imo, he just didn't sound like he was comfortable but this one he feels and seems perfect for the role. | ||
