1. Not only lamenting historical similarities. Julius Caesar's many victories with less are actually similar in principle to Han Xin's last stand. When they were cornered and fighting for survival, the courage and strength they burst out were far superior to those who only fought for profit (of course, Caesar who deliberately cornered them is not good) Compared with the Dunkirk retreat, if the British stayed at that time, would it be a miracle of a last stand? Or almost wipe out the main force?
I feel that the movie did not make it clear that Octavian and Anthony first formed an alliance to defeat Brutus, and then recharged his energy to defeat Anthony in one fell swoop. I feel that this is completely a Three Kingdoms. In fact, why the Three Kingdoms can become a classic, I think it is because as long as two people form an alliance, they can almost certainly defeat the third person, but at the same time when the alliance is formed, the two have their own ghosts, hoping to maximize their own interests. If it is two countries, it is bound to be a life-and-death struggle. It is nothing more than a fight to the death, and there is not much ingenuity; and if it is four countries or more, similar to the Spring and Autumn and Warring States, it can actually be dismantled into some local wars. It is also a temporary cooperation to defeat a third party, which is essentially the same as the "model" of the Three Kingdoms.
2. When Phyllis came to find fault, and saw Caesar personally come to ask Urenas to be the governor of Aventis, he almost laughed out loud hahaha, it turns out that HBO will also do cool drama routines to satisfy the audience's psychology hahaha. There is no prototype for this matter, it should be a story compiled by HBO. However, the so-called "Qianjinshigu", the premise is that you are recruiting real talents instead of grass-roots teams, and they can understand the meaning behind your actions. It's like the popular "I will give 1 million to those who betray me". There is nothing wrong with this behavior in itself, but if you overestimate yourself, your ability is far from being able to attract talents. In the end, it was just a bunch of liars.
3. I admire HBO for spending so much energy to make such an excellent TV series, with all the details trying to get to the bottom of it. But if you think about it carefully, all creations are divided into craftsmen and artists. For example, making a model and making the conventional thinking to the extreme is a very powerful thing in itself, and making the content that should be played to the extreme is enough to become a masterpiece. But some models, there are some points in it, maybe just a very small detail, these points can not be obtained from conventional thinking, maybe it is a flash of inspiration, but it will make you feel very subtle, giving rise to a kind of exclamation of what a brilliant idea ( This is the innovation needed in the paper hahaha)
4. The battle of Philippi, Anthony said this is how history is made. It's too time travel hahaha. The creation of the history of translation is also very well translated by Gai Ruziyan.
5. The only minor drawback is that the time span is too short. "The Fifteen Years of Wanli" also starts from the slice of history and observes the internal reasons for the rise and fall of the entire Ming Dynasty. But "Roma" feels too much emphasis on the little guy (and much of that little guy's story is fictional).
