Never got too interested in the new Spartascus seasons but I was still watching them. Tonight they killed off my top favorite character. One of the main guys who's been in every single season! I knew he was going to die since that's what happened in real life history . . .but damn . . .talk about tear-jerking emotional scene. The fact that he was stabbed in the back with a spear by some pompous kid adds insult to injury, but hey, war is war! Since he was one of the best fighters in the series, it made sense his death would come through a cheap-shot like that. RIP CRIXUS!I do love the fact that he is avenged when Spartacus forces 100 captured roman soldiers to fight and kill each other for sport while the army of slaves watch. Somewhat of a bloody poetic justice here. But damn . . .Crixus  Never felt so attatched to a television character. This post has been edited by Darkness Eternal: Mar 23 2013, 10:04 PM

Oh yeah, I know what happens in RL, I just thought he'd wind up in the big battle at the end... Sorry dude, I knew how much you liked Crixus...  ... It's the Gannicus/Caesar fight that I'm looking forward to...  ...

Gannicus is good, but we know who wins here if they faced off  Hehe, Caesar got the dropped soap treatement and had a visit from Tiberious. Easily one of the most shocking scenes.

Watched "This is 40" last night. It was a pretty fun movie if you like movies with Paul Rudd, I like his deadpan style of humor.

I was very surprised (happily so though) about how much I enjoyed that film...Not at all because 40 is my next one up and the stuff with the kids is so horribly familiar at this point...Daughter being 14 going on 30 at this point...  ... Aaamywho... Just watched Hawaii Five-O...Excellent series...

My husband tried to get me to watch that with him last night. I said no XD It is surprisingly good. I wasn't expecting to actually like it myself.

Quite liked it as well; great soundtrack and excellent cinematography, but it's nowhere near as intelligent as it likes to think it is. I pretty much saw it as a fun science fiction romp. Plus it had Ken Watanabe, who I just adore, and even better it had Juno.

Oh yeah, it was fun, but I saw the supposedly 'mind blowing' ending coming by the first quarter of the film and it was kind of grating to have Christopher Nolan basically yelling in my face "Isn't this deep and complex? Isn't your mind blown by how incredibly intelligent and mind blowing this is? It's so deep isn't it? Isn't it? Have your mind been blown yet? I've blown you, haven't I?"

This might be hormones doing the trick but Whut. Christopher Nolan just wants to be sure that he's blown you, that's all. It was very important to him that he blew as many people as possible using Inception.
