Do want. Do want. Do want.

Spartacus reminds me of High Voltages Gladiator AD game for some strange reason but the trailer looks amazing. It's a series from the network Starz produced by Sam Raimi to be released Jan 2010 no date known yet.

What do you guys think?.

I watched it and that looks like the most pieced together show I've ever seen. Take some Gladiator, Throw in 300 Visuals, and then end it with that common audio scream at the end.

I'm still totally going to watch it..if it comes to the UK.

I'm concerned that it might end up like HBO's Rome. A good concept, let down by the budgetary constraints of TV and a boring main story. It's too difficult to stage awesome battles on anything other than a movie with a proper budget. In Rome the "epic battles" had like 50 guys. And in Rome, again, anything that wasn't action or tits was just a sleeping pill. Watching Romans talk about the "senate" and how Commodus or Aurentius or Whogivesafuckius is the only true leader of... blah blah gets old.

On the other hand, the trailer looks really good. If the non-sex and non-fighting scenes are intriguing and the action is entertaining (I do like the 300-style) I'll be watching it. I just don't want to get my hopes up too much. Rome ruined things for me.

it looks pretty cool and i noticed Sam Raimi is doing some stuff with it, so i'm definitely watching it now.

i almost wish it was more like Rome but this looks just as good
