Spartacus Mmxii The Beginning 2012 High Quality Site
Introduction
- Story Arc: The edit focuses heavily on the trajectory of Spartacus from a free Thracian warrior to a slave, and finally to a leader of the rebellion. It deemphasizes "monster of the week" plots in favor of the main serialized arc involving Batiatus and Solonius.
- Character Focus: Significant screen time is dedicated to the relationship between Spartacus and his wife Sura, as this provides the primary motivation for his actions in the upcoming Vengeance season. It also highlights the rise of Crixus and the machinations of Ashur.
- Pacing: The pacing is rapid. For a viewer who has seen the series, it serves as a highlight reel of major plot points (The Pit, the exhibition matches, the murder of Batiatus). For new viewers, it provides sufficient context to understand the starting point of Vengeance.
