    You do realize that Spartacus was a movie from the 60s that predated 300 & Gladiator right?

    This is like saying that the latest Star Trek movie was based on Battlestar Galactica.

    In fairness this looks to have a lot more in common stylistically with 300 than with Spartacus.

    I actually haven't seen Spartacus, so I'm nost sure how true to the plot the series will be, but yeah basically a "Spartacus meets Frank Miller". Gladiator is irrelevent.

    That said, looks pretty cool. Just hope that the slick imagery and packaging is not all there is.

    "I would kill all of them" is a pretty damn cool line.

    @Underdog

    You misunderstood what I was getting at, tho I'll admit to being vague. I meant it looks like the cross to Gladiator's plot & the directing of 300. Yes, I know there' a movie called Spartacus.

    You do know Gladiator was loosely based on the life of Spartacus lol, right?

    TY. Such is why I have to proofread my blog 10 times before I post it [I'm a moron]
