skillzdadirecta Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Kinda... Starz Greenlights ‘Spartacus: House Of Ashur’ From Steven S. DeKnight; Nick Tarabay Sets Return DEADLINE.COM Starz Greenlights 'Spartacus: House Of Ashur' From Steven S. DeKnight; Nick Tarabay Sets Return Did people really love Ashur that much? I was much more interested in the Julius Ceasar show they seemed to be setting up in the final season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 I can't recall exactly, but I'm pretty sure I hated Ashur. Like, I don't wanna watch a show about him. He fuckin' died. I don't want him to be the boy who lived out of all the characters who died for real. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He fuckin' died. I don't want him to be the boy who lived out of all the characters who died for real. If I remember right he was basically the shifty anti-hero type that every show in the '10's had to have because Negan and Littlefinger were so popular. He wasn't particularly likable or his story particularly well done, so yeah I am not sure why to make a show after him. Honestly, with God's of the Arena existing and killing off most of the cast at the end of the show I am not sure there is too much meat left on the bone of this property to try to scrounge. And I say that as someone who enjoyed the show quite a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzzzle Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 I actually just started rewatching the series (plus I never finished it to begin with), so this is good news! Probably, I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
69los Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 This is cool and Ashur was a weasel of a character IIRC. I would've preferred a Treasure Island sequel to Black Sails though. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem to think he's a guy that people "love to hate". NO people just hate him. I guess that makes him a great character, but I spent the majority of that show hoping he would just die. So many other characters they could ressurrect and make a show about... this seems odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzzzle Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 I've been watching series 1 of Spartacus and holy balls is it cheesy. Far more than Black Sails ever was (and that had more than its fair share of cheese) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

69los Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 By Jupiter's cock, Season 1 was rare magic. Going into to it, I thought it was just going to be some wannabe 300-like show but Hannah, Lawless, Mensah, and Whitfield () just knock it out of the park.

They actually lean into it. They do this weird thing with the dialogue that no one else has ever done. Like they have everyone speak in a passive third person (perish the thought, etc) in a way that is immediately distracting but kind of grows on you over time. But it doesn't ever sound natural.
