i read the phrase “heist movie set in the first century CE” on twitter and, like, please:
they’re plotting to steal a million sesterces from the imperial treasury. Vespasian is emperor. there’s at least one wrist sundial. anachronistic and silly gadgets abound. everyone goes by Marcus. there’s a high-speed chariot chase scene.
Ocean’s XI
“We’re gonna need to pull off the largest Vesuvius since the big one itself”
“What? You think we can’t get the elephants? Hannibal what? Oh come on, the Coliseum is out as well?”
“Okay, so
Spartacus,
Spartacus,
Spartacus,
Spartacus,
Spartacus, and
Spartacus, wait, are you also Spartacus? Okay then”
“This would be so much easier if we had a zero to use in the maths”
“Why do all of these maps point the same way?
…
Surely not every road?
…
Every road?
…
Even the one with the elephants?
…
Especially the one with the elephants?”
