You didn't find 300 faky? One would think a film shot entirely on a soundstage with computer graphics added afterward, which was based on a comic book based on a film based on Herodotus, would seem fakiest.

I think you would like it if you haven't read it. :salute!:
Managed to get a boxed set on acid free paper. It was a book club incentive gift.
Gibbon published the first volume of it in 1776.
It still stands as a valid work of history.

There are a number of ancient sources of information about Spartacus including Plutarch, Appian, Florus, Orosius, Sallust and Diodorus Siculus.
As a teacher, I'm enthusiastic about something that sparks interest in anything.
I taught a social studies class last year, Classical Greek and Roman Studies, in which we actually read Homer's Iliad, Herodotus' Histories, Ovid's Metamorphoses and Books XXI-XXX of Livy's History of Rome which cover the Second Punic War (all in translation).
We watched 300 and Troy and pointed out all the errors.
I think you would like it if you haven't read it. :salute!:

When I first saw this show I passed it over because I thought it was too much like 300 (a movie I wasnt that high on).
But I gave it a second chance and am glad I did. Heckuva doggone good show.
Hopefully theyll be able to do a second season, and if they do hopefully Andy Whitfield will be able to play Spartacus again.
