Daaamn, I'm seeing Spartacus gifs all over the place and they keep tempting me! Should I start watching the show? I watched the first ep of Spartacus: Blood and Sand way back when, but all the fake blood and slow-mo fighting was a bit too, umm, silly for me. But but, pretty men in love! Hard to resist! :D

I don't know what to say because for one their love story IS THE BEST OUT THERE and is canon, and there is sex and jealousy and danger. Other the other hand the story Spartacus itself ends very very badly, way bad, so there is that. So the blood and guts is the least of the problem, you actually get desensitized to it very quickly.

Oh no, I'm actually a fan of gore and gory fight scenes, it's just the really obviously fake blood (and the freaking slow motion) that I'm finding a bit ridiculous. But all the gifs are making these dudes look so pretty, and eeep, I'm tempted! Will have to see about it once I have the time. :)

Oh that was mostly a S1 technique...like there wasn't enough blood on the casualty they had to throw digital blood dripping from the screen and filling around the scene. They don't do that stuff anymore with S2 after the long break waiting for Andy to survive (he didn't :( ).
