Rome's cancellation

Caesar and his era was years and years before Jesus was though. That would be a huge timeskip

Old series and we now have several daily threads about its cancellation all of a sudden.
Aside from accelerating season 2 the story was finished. Later seasons would've been about Augustus and his unopposed rule and nothing to look forward to aside from Teutoborg Forest.

We’ve always had Rome threads

the bbc pulled out because they didnt want to fund it with all of their TV LOISENSE money, they didnt think the juice was worth the squeeze. Stop this garbage conspiracy theory shit.

they had planned nearly 5+ seasons and the jewish shit was right at the end. Instead they had to condense it down in season 2 because it was cancelled between seasons due to the BBC pulling out and HBO didnt want to front the entire budget because at the time HBO wasnt comfortable with massive budgets like ROME.

they wanted to protray jesus as a terrorist nut and the jewish elders as innocent. it was nothing to do with money or the bbc

Per the actors it was canned for budgetary reasons and to make way for GoT

By the end of the show it was already going into Augustus' reign. They could've easily transitioned into when he was older and skip a few decades since he reigned for 40+ years. They're not going to spend an entire season looking at the minute details of his rule.

this is not correct, stop spouting shit, the actors themselves realized this wasnt true. GoT wasn't even on for consideration when rome was cancelled.

Fucking newfags ruining everything. I hate you

I realized I messed up the last "threads" in that. Redid it.

The show being canceled for got is something Rome fans came up with years later just to piss on got some more.

I hate you you bitch if you spend here most of your free time and didn't notice several threads a day about the cancellation of Rome after long period of silence.
And The Terror threads but it's probably a mix of Chernobyl and that recent youtube video.

Reminder that the first two seasons of GOT were also GOAT...

This. As far as i'm aware Game of Plebs was in very early development back in '05. I think they were just starting to pitch the idea to network execs. According to the production timeline on wiki, it wasn't optioned by HBO until 2007. Even then they probably weren't banking on it by any means.

>Later seasons would've been about Augustus and his unopposed rule and nothing to look forward to aside from Teutoborg Forest.
Yeah, because Augustus' succession, or lack thereof, didn't make for compelling television with I, Claudius at all.
Just fuck off already and gargle draino you newfag redditor piece of shit.

They needed money for their other projects and Rome wasn't that popular during its airtime so they canned it.

No it's just an internet rumor. Timewise it wouldn't make any sense

They couldn't have expected the show to become so popular after it was cancelled. In the end both BBC and HBO made a shit ton of money of the DVD box sets sales. I wonder if the BBC regrets it.

its literal lies, they said that season FIVE would focus on judea and even then thats all they said.

I, Claudius was a great book. Doesn't translate well at all to television.

Is this show good? I'm debating getting the whole series. Only ever saw one episode

its literally 2 seasons, get it, regardless of any issues with season 2, its still vastly superior to 98% of all television ever. dont watch the netfix ones though, they are missing one or two episodes, download a torrent.

>nothing to look forward to aside from Teutoborg Forest.
What is it with newfags and Roman history and the Teutoberg forest? Fucking christ you're not the only one. Go back to watching 300

only cringey neckbeards find rome interesting or inspiring. It was a decadent filthy evil empire that caused the current situation of europe by committing genocide against the native european peoples and forcing christianity upon them

>It was a decadent filthy evil empire that caused the current situation of europe
Lol no, germanic tribes migration caused current situation

Are all of you actually retarded? Even the creators said it was because of game of thrones. HBO didn't want to fund them both

Forget 300. I want an Iliad miniseries. Troy was good but it didn't follow the Iliad close enough.
Make it high budget and give me kino

you realize that Europe developed from a paganistic tribal society into an organised, lawful and infrastructure filled society BECAUSE of rome right? are you really this illiterate?

Most kino scene ever filmed?

Attached: pullo.jpg (1280x720, 70K)

it would've been a service to the world if rome and every single individual of note working for it were all completely destroyed as early on as possible, perhaps all the damage rome caused the world and specifically europe could've been avoided.

also you're a fucking retard who didn't even understand my post, i was talking about the CURRENT situation in Europe, which is indirectly due to christianity

a paganistic tribal society would've stood a chance against the onslaught of foreign desert religions if it weren't for the traitors of europe; the romans, adopting christianity and then committing genocide against the rest of europe in order to spread christianity

WORDS FALL FROM MOUTH AS SHIT FROM ASS

This newfag wouldn't know. No one to oppose him, characters with finished stories or dead but he wants the show to be like those first 4 episodes of I Claudius dammit. See if it makes it to Caligula. No, better fast forward to interesting bits make it The Best of Rome.

dude it was the christian fatih that united europe against the desert religions lol unorganised moronic pagens wouldnt stand a chance. read a fucking book, roman society was transformative for all of europe.

>The Big Black Cock needed the money to put more interracial couples on TV

Makes sense

You might argue current europe is due to christianity, but that goes for shit like the industrial revolution too. Just so happens that its strengths leaves it vulnerable to exploitation, particularly the twisting of the notion of born equal in the spiritual sense under god into born equal in the earthly sense that demands inequal outcomes be interpreted as a result of evil. Remove that dogma alone and all these problems disappear immediately.

>go back to red dit
Because I want the Iliad done right? You probably thought ssoattacks was great didn't you

I did the exact same thing for the same reason. It isn't a bad show, but how did they get it so wrong?

you have absolutely no fucking clue what you're talking about, you absolutely disgusting fucking retard. christianity caused the deaths of hundreds of millions of innocent europeans due to all the wars that raged across europe for over a thousand years due to christianity, do you have any clue what the 30 years war was for example?

shut the fuck up about things you know absolutely nothing about

also, christianity never "united" Europe, it is a FOREIGN, JEWISH religion that has NO place in EUROPE

t.germanic

Those are the constraints of a drama tv series, I guess. Sounds like what you want is a documentary.

Civilization without national socialism is what led us here, and christianity is not helping, it's accelerating the degeneration of our race.

Actually Jesus was going to be a Woody Allen-style neurotic Jew.

do you get joy out of this low-effort falseflagging? this shit was dull 20 years ago. put some backbone into it.

And they canceled soon after. Are you retarded?

A whole thread and nobody is pointing out that BBC didnt fucking make Rome you sexless fucking pol retards

BBC co-produced it if i'm not mistaken.

Correct. Italy made Rome, though they didn't build it in a day.

Absolutely based retard

They cancelled the greatest TV show ever made to fund Game of Shit.

Well more than anything else it's the story of Caesar, his immediate political allies/enemies, and two of his soldiers who are kind of Forrest Gumping their way through the major events of the fall of the Republic. It's not meant to be a documentary about the Roman Empire.

Find another significant event from the years that would've been covered in season 3 you newfag faggot with everyone else dead. Fucking poser you didn't even think about it just reacted because someone said something about a battle and your thoughts immediately turned to capeshit blockbusters.

You also have space for a lot of stories like a Praetorian subplot, a bunch of characters male and female like Augustus' seconds and heirs and family members

There is a RICH history at the middle and at the end of his reign too, the beginning is just more movie-friendly because Caesar

>Aside from accelerating season 2 the story was finished.
Accelerating season 2 was the problem though. They could have easily gotten 3 seasons out of that. Season 1 covers a period of about 5 years (Caesar crossing the Rubicon in 49BC to his assassination in 44BC). After that it's another 15 years before Augustus is "crowned" the sole ruler of Rome. Following the same pace as season 1, you could have seasons 2-3 about the rise of the Second Triumvirate and season 4 about the final showdown between Augustus and Antony.

Might as well fast forward to another big crisis with completely new cast as the main stories were pretty much finished. And they can do it any time with a title like Rome just start with the last years of Augustus and it's like it was always meant to be.

if your pagen civilizations are so superior then why did they get btfo by christians, the """inferior"" religions
