ROME

roma


I'm becoming quite a TV junkie. My latest obsession is Rome. Here's one of the interesting dialogues in the show:

Titus Pullo: What are they. Stars?
Lucius Vorenus: Stars. They're holes in the celestial spheres. Holes through which the light of the heavens shine
TP: How big are these holes?
LV: They’re big. They only seem small to us because they’re hundreds of miles away.
TP: Big enough for a man to climb through?
LV: I suppose. A man would never be able to get up there in the first place.
TP: I don’t see why not?
LV: How?
TP: He could hold on to a giant bird.
LV: It doesn’t work like that.
TP: Why not?
LV: It’s philosophy. Hard to explain. (At which point, short for an answer, LV escapes into sleep)

Titus is becoming a favorite of mine. If nothing else, he seems to know his way around women. But that's another matter. This is Titus debating 'philosophy'

spicy. season 2 better wait. I'm not done with 1 yet.
coquette. no sitcoms is something else. this is more like a movie than a tc show.
alia. what about weeds? and desperate housewives? and lost? :)
kila ma6goog. laish yuba?
jacqui. jacqui is not listened to. Now if you bring Jack out of his/her prison, maybe people would listen. :P

hanan
once more, you are attracted to the bad guy :)
and Rome is a fascinating show, however, sexuality is over used, feels like they want to sell with all these forcefully-inserted love scenes

coquette said...

I know :P that’s why I wasn’t interested, I like sitcoms more ;P

Hanan said...

white wings. he's not the bad guy here. of lower class and thus more rugged behavior, but certainly not a bad guy.
