Fullbuster Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 In a world replete with greed, betrayal, sexual intrigue and rivalry, "Marco Polo" is based on the famed explorer's adventures in Kublai Khan's court in 13th century China. The series debuts on December 12th. TRAILER : POSTERS : That seems pretty exciting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbuster Posted November 22, 2014 Author Share Posted November 22, 2014 Marco Polo was an italian merchant, and now they take an Italian actor to play it, sounds fair 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbuster Posted November 22, 2014 Author Share Posted November 22, 2014 This looks really good. The enormity and wealth of the mongol empire has always fascinated me I didn't know how big it became until recently, it sure is impressive. Now when you see how insignificant Mongolia is you can think it's a pity......Well, Great Britain and France got huge territories as well, the British Empire was the biggest in the Human's History.

Lordmandeep Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) This has released. I would say the first episode is hit and miss but it gets much better latter on. If your a fan of shows like Vikings then you will like this show a lot. However it is not top tier quality however due to the wide reach that Netflix has, I think this show will be widely watched.

Fullbuster Posted December 31, 2014 Author Share Posted December 31, 2014 I saw the fifth episode and I really love this, such an amazing landscape and a show full of an exotic culture and historical characters with power struggles, treachery, battles and war, I'm clearly a fan of this it's very interesting and fascinating.

Donald Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 This is the most boring show I have ever watched, tacky writing, uninteresting characters! Wtf! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donald Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Wth were netflix thinking! They should have learnt frm game of thrones! Season 1 was the best despite being the worst in visual and cgi! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullbuster Posted January 1, 2015 Author Share Posted January 1, 2015 This is the most boring show I have ever watched, tacky writing, uninteresting characters! Wtf! You didn't watch many shows then.And what do you compare it to Game of Thrones? Do you even care about History? It's much less easy to produce a show in an entirely different universe (from the usual European background) with a mostly Asian cast and without magic or dragon because this TV show takes place in the real world so there are limits. I disagree entirely! Having watched 9 episodes I think the characters are really interesting, particularly because most of these characters really existed and that's exciting to follow. This scenery is amazing, Marco Polo isn't very important because he's an observer so he can't be a full hero. Kubilai Khan and his wife have charism, Jia Sidao is a caricatural but it's a formidable and smart leader, he humiliated Kubilai Khan with his victory in Xiangyang.
