Is this show any good?

I remember a stupid scene with King Alle of Northumbria where he kills one of his servants by having him thrown in a pit full of TROPICAL SNAKES. Boa constrictors and pythons.

Where in England did he find those snakes again?

I think that's the point when I dropped the series.

Ahah, this show is a fucking joke.

What the difference? Aren't Western Europeans/Northern Europeans the exact same save for language structure?

We even have the same myths, don't we?

if you don't want lagertha to publicly castrate you with a dull knife then you dont know SHIT about television or film

the difference is you are part Celtic.

A lot of memers who didn't watch the show in this thread.

The show is very good and if you have at least a general interest in history you'll like the atmosphere, the decors and the events in the show.

The characters, the story and the actors are all amazing and make this show something much more than just a historically unaccurate Viking drama.

MY
FUCKING
DICK

>Ahah

Smooth.

Will you history babbies get over yourselves and watch this show for the characters and the feel of it all? It's a great show.

No, it's pretty fucking gay.

Ask

best sex scene in the show

Not that guy, but it's fairly likely.
The angles, saxons, jutes, etc settled and stayed so long that they left a permanent "print" in the gene pool.

...

No

I love all the main characters in this show and it also has excellent visuals. Watching some scenes is an experience similar to watching Hannibal - it transcends Television.

It's the same sort of ahistorical, revisionist trash that the Tudors was.

>it transcends Television

No. Because it's not something that I can just "turn my brain off" and keep watching. Of all the ways he could have killed him, why TROPICAL snakes? They didn't even know about these animals back in the day.
Expecially since this happened right after the beautiful and atmospheric Ragnarok scene.

It's a poorly edited, full of inaccuracies show that panders to the Game of Thrones of violence with sex and senseless violence.

Earl Haraldson was such a forced villain, for fuck's sake.

No

that panders to the Game of Thrones audience with sex and senseless violence*

I cucked up

>Metrosexual, anachronistically egalitarian vikings vs. the Ebil Cis White Male Christian English

...

JUST TURN YOUR BRAIN OFF BRO

prequel denier/ marveldrone detected

blacked when?

Not the show for you, then. I have watched all of this show and despite noticing things that are either inaccurate or poorly done I don't think much of it because at the end of the day it's just a television show and there are more important things to worry about

"Blacked"? A subhuman Slav like her needs to get Germanized™.

>implying your little germanic dicks can compete

Terrible opinion

this just looks like somebody trying to mimic a typical post made on Cred Forums

buzzwords, all caps for when he's trying to convey the other person's argument through his own negative interpretation while offering no argument of his own at all

it's fascinating

That pic is leaving iut the trips to Canada. If you want a good book about it that is part historical fiction part real history read West Viking by Farley Mowat.

I know you are, but what am I?

Floki for best viking. Fuck the Christians

...

I like the show but the historical inaccuracies really sucks sometimes.

>nobody has any questions about Old Norse

>Floki
literally edgy: the character

PLEASE SQUAT ALL OVER MY FACE MY VIKING GODDESS

...

>historical accuracy
A lot of errors there but the main ones i find are props and clothing errors or everything. But no one cares about that stuff. It captures some of the ideas well enough.

I was really surprised by the skystone because just a few months earlier there was a find of one of those crystals on an old viking ship.

when is Alfred the great going to enter the show and BTFO dane fucking shits?

Please stop before I fall unconscious from all the blood flowing to my penis

Well i don't cause i study it quite a lot and also my sister is involved in a norse historical replication group.

Daaaaaaaaaamn

Yaaaaaaaaaamn

>It captures some of the ideas well enough.

No it doesn't. It's revisionist nonsense designed for liberal middlebrows.

Hang yourself iFaggot

Here you go, user : youtube.com/watch?v=qABfd0H-JSc

is that girl the same one from sparticus? The roman one?

that's some seriously nice thick

I missed the last season is that when it loses all grasp on historical fiction?

What is so bad that makes you sperg out against it?

>Any criticism is "sperging out"

The second season when the one guy was crucified for apostasy, that never happened anywhere in medieval England. It was just more fashionable Christian-bashing.

He's already in it.

Debatable. Crucifixion had many different methods and i beleive there is evidence of the X cross being used there instead.

Gealic-briton

Heill maðr!

It only really works with knowing Families of power. Where the money flows?

Don't let me be that dumb ass Viking killing for the name I can't reach.

w2c old norse gf? serious replies only

...

You do realize that King Aellas pit of snakes was a real thing right? Or at least it was part of the original legend/saga.

How true is the Lodbrok Saga, was he real?

First and second season are really enjoyable, first season has comfy raiding parties and a feel of adventure, second season has based Borg, great battles espacially ep 1, 5 and the last two and a lot of other memorable scenes, blood eagle ritual and the seer/ragnarok stories come to mind.

>"get over here and suck my toes faggot"
did she really say that?

I never watched the show but does it ever cover Based King Brian BTFOing the vikings?
