quote:

Crassus is Imperator (General of the Army. They stretched it here. Usually you were not an imperator unless your army declared you one on the field of battle after the battle. Was an honor, not a title). Tiberius is one of his commanders and Caesar serves under him as a tribune. Tiberius is probably a legate.

Thanks for the clarification but I was hoping for more of a hierarchy in the sense of where they stand with Rome. Isn't Caesar in line to be king?

Naevea is a popular character like Tara on True Blood, none of that stuff won't happen to her despite what people wants. But if Spartacus hands Tiberius over to her after capturing him, it's game over for Tiberius.

yep, later on Caesar becomes Caesar, but first his conquests are to be made even though this one here is far fetched.

This episode and the games they had...



That was fricking amazing. Spartacus literally fought bare handed against two guys with swords and still defeated them easily. You cannot get any more badass than that.

Gannicus was epic as well but fighting bare handed against swords? Holy fricking shite. Spartacus' fight reminded me of a 100 times more brutal Bane from TDKR.

The deception by Spartacus posing as pompey was was something I did not expect at all. Sending his two guys in as impostor reps for Pompey was fricking ballsy as well. Well done.

Glad to see the POS Tiberius getting what he deserved. It's only going to embolden Crassus even more though, so we'll see that play out next week.

Looks like next week, it's going to be all out war and I'm excited to see how it goes down. Is Spartacus going to ride off in the sunset with Laeta and a few others or will they all fall?

Remember, according to the history books, Spartacus' fate is unknown so anything is possible.

I'm thinking Pompeii shows up and maybe that somehow allows Spartacus to escape.

I LMAO when Spartacus snatched Tiberius arse off his horse by his cape. Also, when Naevea called him a sickly child. They dogged his lil arse and rightfully so.

nice tribute my McIntyre to Andy Whitfield when the games was about to began and he picked sand up and rubbed it in his hands together before letting it fall to the ground. Something Andy would do before all his arena matches. I was hoping for a 2 hour finale because the show is so damn addicting and thought that 2 hours would be neccessary to cover all that was left, but I guess they'll get it all done in a hour.

Great episode. It was a good episode for navea. She admitted her wrongs and put the group before her own revenge.

Right. And I hate they're not doing a replay to start that new show. I also laughed at the cape grab, that whole scene was perfection.

I loved when they did the shout outs to all the fallen soldiers when they lit the fire. It seems like a lot of viewers got teary eyed when that happened.

But the scene of Spartacus fighting and the way he killed the dude with the jump on the back into the swords and when he put them through his eyes owww ... spectacular

Awesome episode. I love how Caesar figured things out and sent Tiberius on his merry way. He knew. Slave girl found out she has to call crixus. master after all. Funny

Now I can actually type on a laptop instead of a phone.

1. Caesar. Figured out the plot and grinned, only to sent Tiberius along the way, hoping for his death. Boy wonder was too stupid to figure it out. Loved that scene when I watched it for the second time last night. Was too funny.

2. Naevia. Kill her, please. As much as a psycho bitch as she is, she didn't deserve to kill Tiberius.

3. Will Crassus figure out who murdered his son and why she left? Will Crassus ever find out what a scumbag his son really was?

4. Crucifixion. Its coming. This is like the Titanic. You know how it ends. You know what will happen.

5. Pompey is on the way, Crassus better hurry up. Pompey, the expert at mopping up after Metellus, Lucullus, Sulla, and then Crassus.

6. The games. Awesome scene. Reminded you of the first season and how riveting the games could be. Scene with Spartacus fighting bare handed was cool BUT Gannicus did that in GOTA in the first episode. Was pretty bad arse when he did it as well.

7. Show is getting better and better. PLEASE release the deleted scenes on Dvd or give us extended versions on DVD like the Godfather or AN did.
