Discovered accidentally by Nicolino Lombardi while flying in his ultralight helicopter, the Temple-Theater of Monte San Nicola in the Upper Casertano region of Italy reveals a compelling story of historical intrigue dating back to the late Ancient Roman Republican period, possibly around the 2nd-1st century BC. This remarkable archaeological site, hidden for centuries beneath overgrown vegetation, has sparked scholarly debate about whether the complex was built by Roman architects or indigenous Italic tribes like the Samnites.

Situated at an elevation of 410 meters in the scenic Sannio area, the presence of nearby tombs suggests that it fell out of use by the 2nd century AD. If the dating is accurate, the construction of the temple-theater coincided with Rome's victories over rivals such as Carthage and conflicts with local enemies. Positioned strategically to overlook key northern routes, the complex likely represented Rome's growing power in the region.

Similar to the Samnite theater at Pietrabbondante, this structure symbolizes Rome's control over the Italian landscape, reflecting ancient rivalries and ambitions.

Delphi was such a beautiful place. Yes, the ruins were impressive, but the landscape and the ambient made it even better. So much green, big mountains everywhere and only birds singing (well, tourists too xD). I got so exhausted but it was totally worthy :D

The ancient city of Pompeii, Italy

The first photo shows the Gladiator Barracks with 74 Doric columns, which was used as a place for the visitors of the surrounding theatres to take shelter or eat something.

The last photo shows the Odeon, a small theatre built in 80 BC. It had a roof that was most likely wood.

Downtown Denver (No. 2)

The Paramount Theatre is a concert venue in Denver, Colorado, located on Glenarm Place, near Denver's famous 16th Street Mall. The venue has a seating capacity of 1,870 but is a popular destination for large acts looking for a smaller concert setting.  With spelling as Paramount Theater, the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.

The Paramount opened in 1930 as a movie theatre, part of the Paramount-Publix Theatre Circuit, the exhibition arm of Paramount Pictures. The theatre itself was designed by the Chicago architectural firm of Rapp and Rapp, with decorations by designer Vincent Mondo, murals by Louis Grell of Chicago. The original main entry to the theatre was at 519 16th Street, where an entrance lobby was cut through an existing commercial and office building.

It sure seems like they're setting up Juno Temple for some kind of Venom spinoff because otherwise they wasted a lot of very boring screentime on her character for nothing.
