| lordmandeep said: I wonder if they add Crassus in to the show. He was the man who finally stooped Spartacus and was known to be the richest person to have lived in ancient times. He is well known for killing 1 out of ten of his soldiers if they ever retreated for battle. Seems harsh but it worked. Reason being soldiers started to fear Crassus more then Spartacus. Nonetheless, Spartacus shook the Romans to the core and it took thier top leaders and armies to defeat him. |
I think (not sure) the lead writer (Steven de Knight) has said their aiming to make 5 seasons which tell the story of Sparatacus entire life. i'm guessing Gods of the Arena is not part of that 5, and these seasons arnt that long so it seems feasible to me 5 seasons is about right.
they've already mentioned Marcus Crassus in the first season and again in this season, so we can this is building to his entrance. i can imagine him being introducted towards the end of season 3 (Starz have picked Spartacus up for a 3rd season)/ beginning of 4th season. but we will surely have more villains in the league of Glaber before that.
just saw ep5 and 6, awesome. felt sorry for the slave Mira killed...
its very enjoyable to watch Liam (although you cant help but miss Andy in rare moments), and in all fairness Naveia is getting better. i wasnt happy with her actress change, but i can see why it was important to keep her relevant to the script. she looks to be developing character wise, as does Crixus.
epsiode 5 was awesome, but i was more impressed with ep6. which is like a fallout episode of the repercussions of previous events. really like Asher, and his band of thugs, the guy is a villain who i can see going into the 3rd season.
