"Kill them all!"

[rogueslayer452]

++ Finally started watching Spartacus: Blood and Sand since it's been on my queue for a while and it was recommended by many, and I like it so far. The only downside is that you can tell they had a really limited budget when it came to the special effects, but the rest makes up for that, from the costumes to the fighting and the story itself. Overall it's interesting and an entertaining show so far, and I can't wait to get to the next three seasons since I heard they were amazing. Also another thing I love? All the equal opportunity with nudity for both women and men, which I very much appreciate, and something I wish HBO and Showtime would get with the program for.

++ I've been playing LEGO Lord of the Rings on Xbox 360, and I am absolutely loving it. It's super fun! I've been playing with my mom and my sister, and we've kind of wasted most of our afternoons just figuring out how to get through it. It makes me highly anticipate for when they make a version for The Hobbit, because I really want to play that one.

This reminds me that I still haven't watched the final season lol. Anyway, I'm glad that you liked it! Yeah, it's easy to spot the bad special effects (wait until you get to one of the later seasons where it's like LOL WHAT WAS THAT), but everything else makes up for it!

Yeah, from the very first episode I was like "what is up with these transitions?" and all the blood spatter effects, but once you get into the story you can easily dismiss how obvious they are and just accept it for what it is.

Sometimes it's so bad that you can't overlook it, but most of the time you're just so caught up in the story that you don't really pay attention to it because what can you do? lol. How far along are you? I loved the prequel!

I'm about halfway through. I'm basically watching about two or three episodes a night depending, I'm hoping to get finished with the first season by tomorrow or sometime this weekend.

I'm probably going to save the prequel for last, simply because I want to get to Vengeance and War of the Damned to continue to story. ;)
