Ow, Brutus! Why the fuck did you stab me?!

>Ow, Brutus! Why the fuck did you stab me?!

I thought Rome was supposed to be historically accurate? HBO really took some creative liberties with this show

>I thought Rome was supposed to be historically accurate?

Who says it isn't? Were you there? How do you know he didn't say that?

That's the kind of retarded shit I would actually say if I had just been brutally stabbed about 30 times.

What's he supposed to say Et Tu Brutus?

That was made up by the guy Shakespeare stole his plays from

>That part where he tries to use his toga to shield his face from having them be the last sight of his life

Gives me feels.

>Brutus you sleazy fucking Jew, I knew it was only a matter of time. You kikes are all the same.

I can't believe HBO let Raimi write the script for such a key episode in the series

>OY BRUTUS YOU GAVE ME THE OLD SPICEY BACK STAB HOW COULD YOU!? HOW COULD YOU GIVE THE MAN BONING UR MUM THE OLD SPICEY BACK STAB!?

Was he supposed to say "Et tu Brutus, contra me?"

>historically accurate
I hope youre aware that Roman aristocracy spoke Greek and Latin was the language of the plebs.
Now go back to Sup Forumseddit

>historically accurate

Romans have English accents in the show. What did they mean by this?

English people are more refined to burgers

Rome was all about the finer things

picture related

He was trying to wipe the blood off his face so he wouldn't look dirty when everyone saw his body
This is accurate to what really happened and it's why the show is GOAT

Attention to little details like that.

>It's a "I watched a retarded youtuber so now I think I'm an expert" episode
Roman aristocracy spoke Latin to each. Hence why Cicero's letters are in fucking Latin.

What should they have had? Italian accents?

>Oh-a Brutus, why you'da go ana stabba me?

Yeah, it was rare that the roman upper class were grecophiles. (Marcus Aurelius being uncommon)

They would learn greek to seem cultured, but nobody ever used it, unless they were trying to show off to their literati friends.

It was Hadrian who was the grecophile
When he was a lawyer they used to mock him and call him "The Greekling"
And also his rustic Hispanic accent.

Marcus Aurelius was one too.

>Add fictional strongk womyn characters
>Perform an Octavian-tier character assassination on the actual historical female leader Cleopatra

Whyyy

>that first senator who spazzes out and just starts grabbing at him

that definitely would've been me if I was around back then

>Octavian
>character assassination
Nothing wrong with him

>almost 500 years
>people still fall for the Shakespeare stole his plays meme

i laughed and
I'm american:3

Octavian carried on a campaign of assassinating Cleopatra's character; politics is politics

Oh, yeah, I thought you were implying that the show assassinated Octavian's character

>Cicero would rather talk shit than live
Is he /ourguy/?

>second season all crammed together because it was cancelled
Fuck
I'd kill for another season
Maybe about The Year of Four Emperors
Or Hadrian
Or just more Augustus being based

thanks for the fuckin spoilers dickhead

keeeeeek

Really there's potential for a season in basically every period of Roman history, even as Rome was nearing collapse there were stories of great generals and civil strife.

shit, sorry bro :(

Anybody who legit hasn't seen Rome already is too young to watch it.
18+

Yeah
So much possible material

One day we'll have another Romekino show

D

???? Thats literally what happened. I was there, so i would know.

The wealthier Romans did speak Greek frequently. Just because Lindy said it doesn't mean it isn't true.

Maybe set during Augustus' incursions into Germani, with Pullo's grown up son being a legionary or something.

Whoops i tripfagged

>"AGH, Brutus muh brudda, it feels-a like youse threw your mama's spicy meatball on my back. Whaddya mean by this, ya sunuvabbitch!"

>the Battle of Teutoburg forest
>Arminius' betrayal
>VARUS GIVE ME BACK MY LEGIONS

Yep, that'd be great

I wish we got this version
Then it'd be true to what REAL Romans sound like

TRUE Romans wouldn't have spoke Greek because they were proud Romans

Cato the Elder claimed that he couldn't even understand the language, despite it being obvious that he did

>almost no good torrents that aren't 30 gigs a season
I might have to actually buy the dvds

>people getting mad at someone spoiling caesar's death

I dont even want to be here anymore

Upper class Romans could speak Greek. What that useless youtube fuck claimed, that it would have been more "realistic" to have them exclusively speaking Greek to each other so that their servants couldn't even understand them was pure bullshit. Romans who were seen as using excessive Greek were mocked.

lyre scratch

vero, ego sum

you're probably wondering how i got into this situation

well, historia longa est

let's roll the scroll back

*eating grapes off of whore's belly*

Eheu! not that far

It hurts to see Heller waste his talent with Gotham now. Just do more roman shit please!

>XIII

It's on Netflix (UK)

>historically accurate

Holy shit are you saying Rome was real?

HBO watches all public trackers. Beware.

HE WORSHIPS DOGS AND REPTILES

HE COVERS HIS EYES WITH SOOT LIKE A PROSTITUTE

HE PLAYS THE CYMBALS IN VILE NILOTIC RITES

He probably smells like strawbery fields forever

Remind me, who was he again?

HE

Pompy

...

Pompey Anus

A good friend

he was an xbox of rome

KEEP THE MOCKERY OF JEWS AND THEIR ONE GOD TO AN APPROPRIATE
MINIMUM

Jesus Christ

Don't go to africa kids

I wish he had his own storyline.

HELP ME OUT WITH SOMETHING

I remember a scene with this guy, where he was wearing a yellow dominated Hawaian shirt and was sitting on a bad, singing to himself "Strawberry Fields Forever". He was contemplating suicide or something

I'm going to go mad which fucking movie was this

*bed

fuck

ALL MOCKERY OF JEWS AND THEIR ONE GOD SHALL BE KEPT TO AN ABSOLUTE MINIMUM

rent my sides with mirth.
carry on

so many dubs, so little time

Fun fact: Pompey really loved his wife to the point where other Senators mocked him about it, since it was uncommon to actually care that much about your spouse.

>FOURTEEN! FOURTEEN!
Wow. I didn't know The Fourteen Words existed back in Rome.

wasn't this entire series based on that "his father was a woman" monte python sketch?

Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus, Imperator of the Eastern Legions, slayer of Sertorius, crusher of slaves, cleanser of Mare Nostrum, Mithridatic blaster and blasphemer against the God of the Jews.

He said it with his expression you retard. The Shakespearian "Et tu Brute?" is hamfisted as fuck and the writers showed a great degree of emotional sublety in this scene by having Caesar look simply heartbroken when seeing that his friend and pseudo-son was with his assassins. It made a 9/10 scene a 10/10.

Hinds was fuckin GOAT

Fucking kek'd way to hard at this for no reason

>Rome movie hasn't been talked about since 2014
I thought McKidd or Purefoy would've at least said more given how much they loved the show.

I agree, why the fuck isn't he having more screentime in movies and TV series

They are getting old, too

Seriously this. It is highly unlikely he said anything in real life. This is probably what actually happened. He had pardoned Brutus and he ended up doing the finishing blow.

>/ourguy/
kill yourself

So Octavian aged like 10 years throughout Season 2 and yet Lucious's kids stayed the same age?

This rustled my jimmies

Season 2 was rushed because they knew they got the axed

>Bro, what the fuck, I can't believe you did that to him! Like, really? I mean, come on man...

I understand why they had to modernize the dialogue, but this felt really out of place

(You)

>tfw Caesar is returning from Carthago and instructs his proconsul for Roma to give the following instructions

youtube.com/watch?v=l-fVPe073_E&t=5m23s

what did he mean by this?

>the implication that the Roman by the name of Brutus was, somehow, of either Jewish ethnicity or faith or of both.

I'm still fucking laughing about this

what is wrong with me

youtube.com/watch?v=7FvgP5hO99o

kek

That is a fun fact.

Fucking kino

>tfw he's not able to wipe his face before he dies

Do you want to know more?
I'm a history fag who got a degree in this shit.
I'm also drunk and so am eager to talk about this shit

>Studies show this account of Ceasar's assassination belonging to consul Samvs Raimivs
