So I've been watching HBO's Rome because according to /his/ it is the best series ever made but then:

>I've just savagely killed your husband
>Will you marry me?
>yes

>Cicero's messenger has time to escape
>Cicero doesn't have time to escape despite being with his messenger

you just cant make this shit up
>>
Nigga you got it wrong Three Kingdoms is the best series ever made
>>
>>475484

I wish there was a Rome-tier medieval series instead of fantasy dragunz faggotry like GoT.
>>
>>475492
I was excited about pillars of the earth but it turned out to be a grey everyone is dirty all the time shit tier

>>475502

is there ONE movie or series about medieval europe that isnt brown and bloom peasants covered in dirt all the time and wearing bulshit generic fantasy armor thats set in a castle that is actually pretty and colorful?


The Messanger is the only one I can think of
>>
"Go without me"

Then Pullo takes his fucking apricots or some shit.
>>
>>475481
>I've just savagely killed your husband
>Will you marry me?
>yes

Who the hell are you referring to?

>Cicero's messenger has time to escape
>Cicero doesn't have time to escape despite being with his messenger

It's because Cicero doesn't want to be chased by assassins as he flees into ignominious exile as he did before. He wants to die in Italy, at his home, at a time of his own choosing, like a Roman noble should.

When Pullo killed Irene's slave boyfriend after freeing them
>>
>>475932

But it takes a long time for her to forgive Pullo and the sissy slave boy wasn't her husband.

OP check out a 1960's production called The Caesars, all six episodes are on youtube. Not as melodramatic as I, Claudius, nor does it take as many liberties with accuracy for the sake of drama.

I couldn't stand that Pillars of the Earth was a soap opera level of retarded. Downloaded in excitement after finishing the novel, deleted after watching for five ir ten minutes.

Is Spartacus /his/ approved?
>>
>>475481
James Purefoy will always be my Antony

>yo augustus. i am still fucking your mother.

>>478943
If you can handle the worst CGI blood imaginable and like softcore porn-level actors, then Spartacus is for you.
>>
>>478323
only if it is 7th century

>>478943
>>479015

In short it is fricking awesome. Download it now.
>>
>>479015
Oh god, yea. The first episode of Spartacus had me cringing so fucking hard with how awful that CGI is.

It like they got community college graphic design students to do that shit.

Why do so may /his/ shows have such shit budgets? It seems like only HBO shows get any semblance of money to play around with and normally it all goes out the window for costumes.
