My favorite is "The Fall of the Roman Empire". The forum looks very good and the scene where Marcus Aurelius is cremated is great (I think Martin Scorsese was greatly impressed by that scene?) I have not seen Cleopatra since I was a kid so I propably should also check that out...

I have given up watching the HBO`s "Rome". I would never have thought that this kind of thing could happen; history`s most expensive serie about Rome and I am not watching! Here are the reasons:

-Totally lacking athmosphere. The characters are unconvincing and there`s no feeling of "rome" at all.
-The approach to this "shocking" new view Rome is cheap. Sex, violence, filth in the corners... Boring, tell me something new.
-The usual flaws in military equipment
-It is not even good entertainment

Am I really alone with my opinions considering Rome?
