They expertly turned a set of ancient Rome into a set of ancient Pompeii, did they? Blimey, they must be experts. Cos everyone knows how different they looked.
The Rock as Captain Marvel is pretty good casting.

Ha ha! Those are the characters in my latin textbooks from school! (Based on real people, to be fair.) Bet you that the script editor for that one is about my age.

You, too, huh? Repeat after me: 'Caecilius est pater'. I seem to recall it was all set in Pompeii, too.
Ah, happy days.
