Are the Iranians aware that 90% of the Americans who see this film have no idea where Persia is?Apparently 300 IS a fight for freedom:
90%? You're being generous....Are the Iranians aware that 90% of the Americans who see this film have no idea where Persia is?
dammit... what the hell am i going to fly into work on now..???This just in...
Iran now recalling all Persian rugs
Y'all look the same to us white folk.Uh, I am from the other side of Asia.
Same amount of piercings though, right??Uh, I am from the other side of Asia.
I'm seriously contemplating PAYING to see it again! This time on the IMAX screen. It's been probably 15 years since I've paid to see a movie twice.Anyway ... so you're telling me the movie is worth the cost of theatre ticket .. kinda.
It's been a while that any movie has come along that's not worth waiting for the dvd & home flat screen.
Exactly what I'm doing tomorrow night. I didn't know the movie was out on Imax until a friend told me he wanted to see it.I'm seriously contemplating PAYING to see it again! This time on the IMAX screen. It's been probably 15 years since I've paid to see a movie twice.
You better get new eyeglasses if you think I look like I'm from Persia.Y'all look the same to us white folk.
Werent those "immortals" or whatever Ninjas or something though? Karate is no match for being just a badass in general.You better get new eyeglasses if you think I look like I'm from Persia.
Soon enough all Americans will look the same. We will just be different shades of fat.No. The Immortals were Xerxes' elite fighting force. It would be safe to assume that they were "persian."
My in-laws say "all white people look alike."
So it today. Definitely impressed. Didn't see it at IMAX but did see it in digital projection.I'm seriously contemplating PAYING to see it again! This time on the IMAX screen. It's been probably 15 years since I've paid to see a movie twice.

I've been trying to let it go, but I can't ... the Persian archers at the end were using the wrong kind of release on their bowstrings. They were using a 3-finger pull and should have been using a thumb pull with a thumbring (Persian style of course).
I know no one will care, but I feel better now.

There is a lot of archery stuff in the collections of the museum I work for ... bows, arrow, thumbrings, whatever. Plus I've been shooting photos for a book on archery. I'm not really into archery but I know a lot about it from work.DNA:
Of the historical inaccuracies to pick on, you choose the archer's release? Interesting...
Pass.There is a lot of archery stuff in the collections of the museum I work for ... bows, arrow, thumbrings, whatever. Plus I've been shooting photos for a book on archery. I'm not really into archery but I know a lot about it from work.
i agree and i cant wait until Sin City 2 comes out. Michael Madsen (Mr. Blonde) is supposed to be in it again, and he's quite the badassFinally got around to seeing it a while back.
300 was cool and stuff, by far the most intricate and dynamically artistic fight choreography i've ever seen in a film. Another Frank Miller gem they really played it as it should be played, just like Sin City they played it like a comic book and it worked.
TMNT had some awesome fight scenes in it and some amazing animation. Definitely not as good as 300, but I had a lot of fun watching it.BTW, I want to congratulate the makers of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for surpassing 300 in the box office
At least a real life combat film takes #1.
Your opinion on 300 amounts to a pile of warm dog poo....you think Dane Cook is teh funny. Something in your head is obviously outta whack.Oh my God, that movie was such a pile of excrement.
Fraser, if your friend was one of the naked ones, she's hot and I mean no offense...heh.
It looked kinda neat, but so did Sin City, which was way better.
Something about the super electric guitar "rock outs" during the slo-mo chopping scenes made me cringe. Sooooooooooo cheeeeeaazeee!
And Xerxes? What a flamer! When the spear goes through his cheek rings at the end, I couldn't help imagining him shreiking out "Ow! You bitch!" in a fruity effiminate voice.
I get that it's supposed to be all "graphic novel" style (or to put it in less bullsitty terms: comic book-y), but come on!
Turn the red knob....He's just funny, not teh funny. 300, however, is teh suck. Times 10.
Is that the knob that changes the channel from the fecal matter that is 300? Done.Turn the red knob....
