  1. Most of your arguement was: "sure you saw it coming, but it's character development". What fun is it if the characters develop in a a) predictible way b) in a way that makes no sense. What this show tends to do is show it's hand too early. I can't tell you exactly what will happen in the next episode or anything, but as I watch that episode I'll likely see nothing I didn't expect or see coming. It's not bad. Just not good. It could get better. As I said, it seems to be less than the sum of it's parts. Nope I said it was out of character and that the writers didn't seem to know what they want the guy to be or how to evolve him properly. It was clear he was going back for the girl as soon as he could. This is the same guy that was talking about how hard it was to rape brits. In the first episode he wouldn't listen to his superiors. In the third he was yelling at someone about desertion. When the events are soooo shallow, you hit the bottom quickly. O come on, you thought the kid would make the jury unharmed????? They practially flashed "DANGER DANGER DANGER" across the screen. I didn't see pompeii's men stealing the eagle tho. Nope, those two are the notable exceptions I thought of when I said "basically". It may be the only reason I watch next week. That and the actors as a whole seem to be much better than their material. It's got to get better. 1. He cut her ropes and set her free "lovingly" before opening the cart. He may have only taken her with him because of Caesar, but he did "save" her regardless. 2. Twice he asked to help the girl pre going back for her. 7/10 HBO for me, off the top of my head, so you can se where I stand: Band of Brothers: 10/10 Deadwood 8.5/10 Entourage: 6.5/10
  2. A conan action/rpg game play and engine look uninspired
  3. Hey ewen, long time no see How about Kid Rock
  4. Well, there's not that much slack in the historical record for most of the characters. Pompey has to do what he actually did, as does Caesar, Marcus Anthony, Brutus, Cato, and Cicero. I find the stuff with the quasi-historical characters like Pullo and Lucius and the slightly historical like Atia to be pretty unpredictable - I didn't see Lucius leaving the Legion at all, although it makes sense now that we see how deeply religious he is. I wish they'd focus on Cato and Cicero a bit more, though. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ya, but who didn't see Pullo fighting in the bar. Who didn't see him being the cause of the fight at the end of the episode that forces Caesars hand? Who didn't see that Lucius wife was actually cheating on him and it was her kid. Who didn't see Glabius getting killed when that girl came to visit. Hell, who didn't see pullo ending up with that cart of gold. Basically, while watching the episodes, I know whats about to happen 5 minutes or more before it happens. I have been rarely surprised by this show. Not much in terms of twists or just new ideas. It seems like it is just recycled ideas with a Roman twist. All I'm saying.
  5. O, thats cool then 50 bucks if you kill me last. I'm to pretty to die.
  6. awww thats actually pretty s....wait, how often are we talking?

  10. I guess it does take a fruitcake to challenge a chimp <{POST_SNAPBACK}> When the Chimp Apocolypse happens, I won't harm you, but I don't have to save you either. I'm Batman

  13. I was really dissappointed when that film wasn't about the H.M.S. Pinafore, oh well So Rome....they got.....hats...... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Another bone I got with Rome Deadwood makes me feel like I'm looking at Deadwood, Montana in the old west. Band of Brothers made me feel like I'm looking at the battlefields of Europe. Rome makes me feel like I'm watching guys in costumes act.
  14. Is Child of Flame a name change......cause he has 2000+ posts and it's like I'm drawing a major blank that or it's a new avatar messing with me

  18. The courts also found in "Board of Education of Kiryas Joel Village School District v. Grumet" that "government should not prefer one religion to another, or religion to irreligion"
  19. wait wait wait You have played the Fallout games, right?

  21. If something is unconstitutional, it is unconstitutional. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Show us where in the Constitution where it talks about seperation of church and state. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The phrase isn't in there. Much like the right to privace and judical review arn't in there, but the courts see these things as implied or intended, so they usually hold them as constitutional rights. If you don't like it, get on the supreme court. EDIT: You can argue that you don't think they are intended. You can't argue the courts view them, most of the time, as rights. O, and if you want to go by a strict "what is written" definition: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof" A pledge law is a establishment of religion if it contains "under god", in a publicly funded school. The courts also found in "Board of Education of Kiryas Joel Village School District v. Grumet" that "government should not prefer one religion to another, or religion to irreligion" and made the above line apply to state laws. ahhh precident
  22. How was that?
  23. El-Dar: Son of Krypton
  24. I dunno, it seems like everything they do is predictable to me. and it seems they completely changed who Titus is last episode for no good reason. I don't think they know what their doing with him.
  25. Thats common knowledge in this thread, but ya, it's kinda neat.
