Spartacus Blood and Sand

Only viewed the first episode of the first season, but man was I disappointed. I have been watching Game of
Thrones, so I was used to a certain level of acting and set pieces, and man once I saw that "300" style greenscreen
digital sets and this crazy flying blood and blood used as transition, man, was I upset. I had read nary a bad comment
on the show in this thread, so I was expecting something similar to GoT, and like I said, what a disappointment.
I have all of the first season ready to watch, so I am going to watch them all regardless, and I am sure that
it will seem less "wrong" to me as I go forward, but I guess there is something to be said for never having watched 300
to begin with. Makes Game of Thrones all that much more impressive. And then all at once it hit me...this is from STARZ.
