Everyone had some alterior motive.)īut then I came to realize how he was using the people. Everything was decided by money and corruption. And the other person says "and you think that's not political? Which to me conveyed the message that everything was political at that time. (There's a quote from season 2 I think, when they are picking a new pope and someone said something among the lines of only G-D can decide who becomes pope, not money. I thought oh that's nice he's not involved in politics. I thought he genuinely cares about the poor people, collecting jewelry and all, preaching love and joking around (he made a joke about an audience member wanting to get a beer and being bored if I remember correctly.) But I guess my question to reddit is: if Cosimo had been able to interact with Lorenzo what the hell would he have thought about what his grandson stood for? The show is gorgeous and you could watch the whole thing on mute and still enjoy it. I’m sure it is historically accurate, but the only thing I can fault him for is hating art. And the final big bad being a populism & democracy preaching priest speaking truth to power was such a bizarre choice. But when an antagonist is Epstein-ed because he discovered this rich ass family has been embezzling money from the city it kinda confused me about who I should be rooting for. My biggest complaint was the antagonist was a 4th generation “1%-er.” Which wouldn’t have turned me off that bad (because who would want to watch a family of peasants avoiding the pox and starvation). (Also, was Richard Madden an Executive Producer for Season 2?) I’m going to do watch 1.01-3.08 and see if my opinion changes. But then it just kinda went off course for me.
The first part of the season was great and kinda felt like Season 1 (which was/is my favorite). I had no idea season 3 was even coming so it was a pleasant surprise. Back to Back.Įverything Lorenzo De Medici envisioned, and created. both of those Medici kids sent to Rome, ends up being Pope in the end. He thought Florence and everything that Lorenzo created. You know what happened to the priest? He was burned alive and hanged, 6 years after Lorenzo's death. The real hypocrite cunt, who tried his best to destroy all the beauty in the world that Cosimo and Lorenzo created. The delusional priest, who thought "God speaks through him", and his way is the only way. just like all other legendary artists, and innovators who reshaped the world. The birth of artistic beauty and immortal Literature is all fully alive and appreciated all over the world even to this day. The poetry, the art, the music, the science. Especially his legacy, Lorenzo the Magnificent. The only thing changed in him, was his ability to do WHATEVER it takes, instead of being soft and always looking for peace.ītw. He became a bit cold, but never a monster. Then Lorenzo ended up seeing his own brother brutally butchered. Even by his so called childhood "friend". Lorenzo tried to make peace even when he was getting shit on by the Pazzi, over and over. then what the fuck do you expect someone like Cosimo or Lorenzo to do?
all because of the jealousy and insecurity. When the enemy is hell bent and obsessed on bending the rules just to over throw you, even murder you and your entire family.
Both artistic people, that changes the world in the end.īut none of them wanted VIOLENCE, but they were forced to become that person in order to keep Florence and the Medici alive. Cosimo did worse, but for the greater good. There should have been 100x more darkness and gruesome savagery, like it was in real life. This entire show in general felt like a PG13 rated show. Thank God that stupid people like you are a scarce minority. You think THIS was "far too dark and gloomy"? what delusional tissue paper rock bubble ya living under? SpongeBob world? Far too dark, far too gloomy, and Lorenzo fell so far.īoy.
