Agreed on #2. It's fun to hear the audience gasp in horror at the murder. I love how the corps makes a heart at the end of the ballad and when the DM walks through the heart and kills the girl, the heart breaks. Then the emotion of Spartacus carrying her off the field and the ensuing battle. The music is so angry after the beautiful ballad. Powerful stuff.

ya know, these characters do have names. "the girl" is Phrygia, Spartacus's wife. the Conductor is more than likely Crassus, a Roman consul (from the ballet and the one who enslaved Spartacus's ppl), and the last murder, is Spartacus himself.

i voted for kill girl no. 2. why? because it's FIERCELY DRAMATIC!

i do like the change in Spartacus's murder with him being "swallowed alive" by the phantom legion (ever heard of that name before?). ;)

How long before some bleeding heart, tree-hugging, too-sensitive-to-live, granola-eating, patchouli-smelling hippy comes along and complains about this poll?

:tongue:

#2 is so shocking, especially with the bell rake. Very effective!

sans the complaining about the poll part here... the rest has already been done in another thread.

These people that created this show clearly watched violent cartoons like Jonny Quest and Bugs Bunny back in the day, and probably listened to Alice Cooper and The Cult. I'm disgusted.

OH... what a friggin great show Phantom has this year BTW!! :tongue:

I gasped the first time I saw the cold-blooded DM one, and it brings goosebumps every time I hear that section. I can only imagine what it must be like live.

It has GOT to be hard to lie there in the heat, though!

Cheers,

Rick
