That's Entertainment & Rome 1.2

That's Entertainment was overlong, and suffers from a lot of boring scenes, plus, the great scenes are sometimes cut short or have narration over them. Plus, really, why must we be forced to see Clark Gable sing and dance? I know it was played for laughs, but it was plain bad. Even when the great scenes are left as they are, they suffer from lack of context. Singing in the Rain, Make 'em Laugh, the great dancer numbers by Astaire, Kelly, and the like all would work better in the movies they're originally from.

The second episode of Rome seems to be pushing the historical accuracy farther into the past. It works better as drama than as history. Probably would be better if it spent more time and didn't try to cover so much. I mean, civil war after two episodes? It better go slower and more character and less plot in each episode, or else it will be a failure. Still lots of nudity though. Brain surgery sucks, by the way, but Roman brain surgery really sucks.
