"gangbang the queen"

"it's good to be the king"

You know, I think the worst part about it was how they had Octavian spell out the plot to keep the mouth-breathing crowd up to speed. That cheapened the whole thing a lot.

I saw a "Making of" show. They said that the first 2 or 3 episodes are going to be moving at a break neck speed and are more mostly background and introduction.
After that it settles into the normal HBO pace of things, slow and taking its time.

Episode 1 moved too fast.

A few episodes in...

IT FUCKING ROCKS.

Pompey flees to Egypt this week.. and shit REALLY starts to get interesting.

Favorite scene so far?

Mine
Went something like:

"He's lying, torture him"
"Um, I've never actually tortured anyone before, we have specialists for that!"
"Oh, um, well, then cut off his thumbs"
"And I thought you would be the one who wouldn't be able to handle this"
(screams commence).

The best part is that one of the 2 people in that scene is like a 12 year old kid. Otherwise it wouldnt be nearly as good.

If you haven't seen it, the official HBO site has some pretty nice background stuff here: http://www.hbo.com/rome/behind/rome_revealed/rome.html
