What are the characteristics of American dramas? At the beginning, the gods were sealed, and the performances were a bit delayed, and at the end, the patience of many audiences was exhausted. Yes, this is the common trend of many American dramas, the reason is that there is no other reason, because there are too many episodes filmed, and it is almost a dozen seasons at every turn, resulting in the screenwriters themselves being a bit unable to make up. And many American dramas are even faster than the adapted originals, and the last moments of the storyline naturally cannot be justified.
There are many such representative works, such as "Game of Thrones", "The Walking Dead"... Wait, so are these American dramas that can be canonized the gods all the same, and the ending is not satisfactory? Of course not, there are exceptions, just like the generation of divine drama "Spartacus" that we are very familiar with, the excellent degree of its ending, in the American drama, even in the world's TV series, can be said to be second to none, it not only follows the history, but also reasonable, full of meaning. unbelief? Let's explore it together.
The grand finale of the TV series "Spartacus" follows history, and Spartacus's uprising ends in failure, which is consistent with history.
As Spartacus grew, he tried to travel to Greece through the port of Brindesia, and it was this decision that made the Roman Senate attach importance to this "ragtag group", so it can be said that it was the strength of Rome to dispatch all the armies of Pompey and Luculus from Spain and Thrace, respectively, with the purpose of reinforcing Crassus and suppressing the rebel army of Spartacus in one fell swoop.
In this case, in order to prevent Crassus from joining the other reinforcements of the Roman army, Spartacus was not allowed to drive his troops north and attack Crassus directly, so the final battle of the third season was staged.
In the end, everyone saw that in the fierce battle in the southern part of the province of Apulia, Xiao Si's rebel army was outnumbered, entered the dangerous situation several times, and finally could not escape the disastrous defeat.
Historically, 60,000 rebels, including Spartacus, were killed on the battlefield, and finally about 5,000 people fled to northern Italy, but these people also escaped the fate of these people, and were wiped out in Italy by Pompey's army.
Nearly six thousand captives were crucified at that time, and on the cross along the way from the city of Rome to Gapúa, the Spartacus Revolt failed, but their ideals of freedom and indomitable spirit will forever inspire future generations.
On the main line of the failure of the uprising, the TV series did not make outrageous changes, but the war scenes were extremely tragic, especially the final battle between Xiaosi and Crassus, even if the spear pierced the body at the end, it still did not completely fall, if it was not for the timely arrival of reinforcements, Xiaosi had the upper hand in one-on-one. The advantage of this is that it does not deviate from history, but also makes the image of Spartacus deeply remain in the hearts of the audience, and the unique personality charm is also unforgettable.
The war is tragic, Gannix and Kress were also killed, but the method of death also used different methods, but also closer to the characteristics of the character, Kress died on the battlefield, Gannix was crucified, and he could smile uninhibitedly, which made people regret at the same time, and it was the final "perfect" ending.
Each of the main characters has arranged a heroic death ending, which is expected by people, but the method of death and the last scene are so unbearable to look at it, which is the good intention of the play in the details, and it is also the most important reason why it can seal the gods. Of course, the scale is also one of the reasons, which cannot be ignored.
The most unexpected thing is that it is actually Elligan who survived, some people are indignant about this, why are several steel straight men dead, but let him survive? What does the screenwriter think? No need to guess, to be honest, whenever the American political correctness, he has to make a form, after all, he is not the most important soul character in the play, after all, Spartacus's bloodline still needs someone to protect.
Yes, there is no mention in history that Spartacus has a bloodline left, but artistic creation should inspire people's hearts, but also make people hopeful, so they chose to let the city lord's wife conceive xiaosi's bloodline, which is a good setting, implying that the fire of freedom will never be extinguished, and the spirit of not giving up will continue forever, which is also a reason why it is necessary to add chicken legs to the screenwriter.
Some people say that he will go to see this American drama, entirely because the actors in the play are dedicated, which is a very important reason, but if you watch the play seriously, you will find that the gimmick that was originally rushed to see it, although wonderful, if you put aside these, you will also watch the play seriously, which is where it cattle.
Many American dramas can be called divine dramas, but there are very few dramas that are perfect from beginning to end, but "Spartacus" can be counted as one, whether from the plot or scale, it is impeccable, and the ending is perfect, which not only conforms to history, but also meets the wishes of the audience!
Such a drama can be blown all the time, so please ask some friends not to say that people who like this drama are superficial, because you have not seriously watched the drama at all.
