Crixus is awesome as always. I like this actress for Naevia a lot better for season 3 too, she plays the bad ass crazy bitch a lot better than the scared helpless woman.
This season is very good so far.

I thought she was just giving them food, like spartacus told her to.. didn't he tell her to go around and make sure they're fed | ||

I think that people from no porn thread cant even watch this show ! didn't get to work out enough in preparation for their roles There is a nice article about Spartacus and his workout plan on bodybuilding.com. they dont have much time while filming (no idea why) so he trains only 20min but yes he is not that big and scary | ||

The main characters, too, aren't as handsome as before. Crixus isn't as buff as he used to be, Gannicus even has a little gut, and there's probably a reason for Spartacus always wearing a leather armor. It's like they were surprised there was gonna be another season and didn't get to work out enough in preparation for their roles. | ||

I remember it was a big deal when the guy in (cant remember the season) got his head cut in half - in fact I remember my girlfriend gasping. Now... it's like "eh, whatever, blood, gore, cgi!!". I'm still watching it, but man is this season ever a step below the older seasons. Seems like the budget got massacred or something and they're running out of good ideas. Blood & Sand and Gods of the Arena were absolutely awesome though. Weird. Production has definitely gone up, my friend. Meh, I don't think it has. | ||

I don't see a problem with this, characters develop, they don't have to look like they did in season 1 They're not gladiators training all day anymore so it's normal that they are not as buff, Crixus doesn't have to look pretty for his domina and Ganicus is drinking all the time. It's also expected from Naevia to be fucked up after being raped and slaved in the mines. | ||

It's also expected from Naevia to be fucked up after being raped and slaved in the mines. the only problem here in the character work is that naevia flipped a little too hard last episode and is now essentially a murderer. I trust that the show will pay this off next episode or a few down the line, but it's a little hard to empathize with her when she's beating innocent faces off with hammers. if you take the context of the war away from all the killing that a character does if they're on this show, it goes a little crazy and awkward very quickly. | ||

I actually really like how the Slaves are all pricks too. Like Crixus is pretty much a good guy now, and I almost thought he was going to be a paragon of justice when the two slaves were fighting over bread but nope, he gives them swords and tells them to fight to the death. As for Naevia going crazy - it's sort of believable. She was traumatized but I thought she was going to be alright after killing Ashor but nope. Whatever. I think she'll die soon and Crixus will go insane and kill 100 Romans before dying himself. But yeah they're clearly making Naevia way over the top insane and she's supposed to represent the "look at the monster we've become" side of the rebellion. She straight up murders the cool blacksmith, she chops the hand of the fat, innocent baker. The writers don't expect anyone to actually empathize with her. | ||

It seems like every season of Spartacus requires an annoying, feminist, angry-faced female character who goes against the traditional gender role and acts like a strong, independent woman who wants to stand up to the male leads and challenge the idea that women are subservient to men and can't do anything... Lucy Lawless, Naevia, this Roman woman... Etc. Lucy Lawless and the first actress for Naevia were amazing to me ![]() | ||
