Ceasar was the greatest man to ever live. only contested by Alexander. he founded the empire that has so greatly influenced our modern society; war, economy, exc... If rome had remained a Republic than it would not have been nearly strong enough. Ceasar was brutal to his foes. but they were just as brutal. If he had not been assassinated he could have easily been the greatest man to ever live.
They really should have spent a few minutes in the first episode to explain Sulla a little better. They did mention him continuously, and pushed in plenty of history, but should have really explained the whole ordeal that brought Sulla to dictatorship. This event literally intertwines Caesar's rise to power with the precedent needed to perform something like this. But again...BEST series I have ever seen. Only X-Files & Mad Men (so far) (& that I know) can get remotely close to trumping this
I love it when he runs away looking for his boys an there all fuckin DEAD!!! Quality series. Kevin Mckidd an Ray Stephenson, two of the best actors goin!!!
why didnt they make more than 2 seasons!!! what a scandal, i was addicted to this, im still having with drawral symptons lol i havent watched spartacus yet, i hope its as good as this!!
@taichibailongball i totally agree, this and the soporanos are my 2 favourite tv series!! it had everything, sex,violence,amazing storylines!!! please bring it back. HBO!1!
@taichibailongball Yeah i agree. And it was actually historically accurate, most of it at least. I knew what was going to happen in every episode, historically wise. I want more!
@LuigiSozzi dude in that world, there were no pussies, only men, men who can withstand the unbeleivable pain, men that can carry as many stuff as a pack mule, i personally wished i lived in those times, dont know about the rest of u
@militarygrunt589 Hell no. Constant wars, famines, epidemics, and lots of those tough Roman soldiers died in their tens of thousands even at the peak of Rome's power. You were lucky if half your children lived. Or if your wife survived childbirth. Other than that, great!
@squamish4244 look back than and look now, u dont see men now who honor wat they do, u dont see a child carrying his bag to school and then whine about how heavy the bag is, sure, they lived deadly lives back then and i agree, but if u were a soldier u shouldnt get married until u retired from the Roman Army
this was one of my favorite scenes of the whole series. wow, i really thought they were dead too. it makes it less effective when you find out they aren't dead, but at the time...powerful scene.
lol, I mean how wrong can you be? I was thinking in the grand traditionof vendettas, he was going to ocause more misery to V by making him kill him part of his wholly evil plan.
thats what i said, but under fear of death he wouldnt have done it so he did it not expecting it. unless hes really really good and only did it to give vorenus the determination that would lead him to find his kids.
He said that to prevent a worse death, folks. He was going to die, the only question was how. Given his druthers, Vorenus would have killed him slowly. By making Vorenus even madder, he hoped to get provoke him into a sudden outburst; which is what happened.
That's what makes his telling Mark Anthony that he suffers from the same disease as he does is a great scene, they are both passionate men, whose passions lead to their demise...
I don't quite understand. Antony is a passionate man but Vornenus is a stoic not a hapless passionate person. I see him as a lot of things but not passionate.
Did you not watch the series? Vorenus may have been calm and rational generally but his character was punctuated several times by spikes of sudden, boiling rage and violence. If those moments didn't involve "passion" then I don't know what does.
Well of course he's a stoic. He may have had a terrifying temper, and it lead him to the wrong places. But for the most part he ignored his own wants and needs, to follow what he considered duty. He rarely let his feelings get in the way of what he considered what was right compared to the moments he lost his cool and went crazy. Antony even called him a stoic once in the series.

He knew he was dead anyway. What I don't get is why Vorenus didn't think he might be lying to him given the scumbag that he was.

This was on par with The Sopranos. In many ways Rome is better. While it did end nicely I REALLY wanted more. A lot more.
With all the junk on HBO you would think they would do anything to make this series last to add to their dying legacy.
