more meta interested in seeing how TV shows developed now are different from great shows from 2010. The show had tons of violence, nudity (men and women), swearing, and just over the top everything with really not much to say except "fuck the rich".
shows nowadays try to cram in odd edgelord politics and i wonder if there will be any nudity (or just dick and balls)

Probably will skip just not to tarnish my love for the original. I already don't like that it's alternate history.

This is, sadly, probably going to be true. Which is a pity, because I am pretty sure that the original show is #1 all time TV titty show.

Kind of weird that they are basing the sequel around probably the least likeable character in the show though. He was always the weasle that you couldn't wait to see suffer an excruciating death. The only actor even less likeable is that ugly crazy bitch they replaced the OG pretty navia with. The black chick that's in LoTR now. Can't stand that cunt. Such a terrible actress.

What year did Army of Darkness come out? What about the OG Spartacus? #metoo really kicked off around 2017.
Lots of dude wang and ass.

OG Spartacus was from an entirely different era. 2010.
Gods of the Arena 2011.
14 years later to put this out for a nostalgia grab is a pass from me.

I give the writers and the actor credit - they did an outstanding job making everyone- in world and out - absolutely hate, loathe and despise Ashur.
So by that, an odd choice to kick off a separate thing with him.
The original - with its ultra sex and violence was done actually well- was it a lot- yeah, was it gratuitous - yeah, did they apologize - no, the only gripe you could give was they obviously used merkins for the ladies all the time past s1 vs not always. The dial to 11 was fitting in its world, and that was part of it - even the plot and scheming was 11, it all jived once they got their cgi blood down after the pilot and first few episodes

Wait a minute, was that last clip a black chick fighting a grown man in h2h combat?
So the new Spartacus has a vagine?
Yeah, this is looking dumb as fuck.
So they are calling this "Spartacus" and naming her "Achillia" stealing the names of two powerful historic men for this bullshit. Funny, the Greeks and Romans wrote down a lot of shit. I don't recall any powerful gladiatrix being written about in 4,000 years of recorded history.

I actually don't consider it to be gratuitous. They built the whole world and style around that level of nudity and sex so it fit the narative. compare it to game of thrones where they would have important dialogue scene done in a brothel so they could have nudity in the background.

True, that’s what I was meaning. Wrong word, even if the media sometimes issues it as “amount” of skin or “often” of occurrence. Like a 1980s comedy, topless at a beach is good fun lol boobs, but if its a full nude beach (like a nude beach would be) OY VEY Gratuitous nudity!
