Re: *300* Movie Review *No Spoilers*
i read somewhere that Clooney bought the rights for the movie and Michael Mann was going to direct it. But it can't find any current info about it. While watching the movie i couldn't help but wish somebody would try to make a historically accurate portrait of it, even though i was enjoying myself.

Re: *300* Movie Review *No Spoilers*
just got in from this. pretty bad. i went in with zero expectations hoping for thin plot and sweet battles and fighting.
plot was LOL bad. the whole thing with the politics was completely terrible. so bad. the movie could only been more homoerotic if they all started blowing each other. music awful. dialogue awful. speeches so bad. didn't use enough monsters. none of the battles or fights were particularly cool. repetitive. the whole thing with the hunchback was retarded. no good use of any of the creatures really. should have been a ton more. 3.5/10 and i went in with low expectations. edited down into 25 minutes it could probably be a 7.5/10.

I have to seriously doubt the masculinity of anyone who did not think this movie ruled. If you are a woman/gay I can understand how you might not like this movie. [/ QUOTE ] QFT... this is one of the most visual stunning movies I've ever seen. The action was 2nd to none.

The ending bugged me too. Ok weve killed all the toughest you have to offer no problem. We still have ~280 spartans left (going by deaths, not by how many it looked like there were in the man made dome). And they all die in < 1 minute when theyve fought for days. Stupid. [/ QUOTE ] they were surrounded from behind AND from the high-ground in the actual history of this fight... this is EXACTLY how they would have gone out.

YOU are LOL... this is one of the GREATEST stories from one of the GREATEST empires to every inhabit our planet... If you didn't like the film-making, the acting, the editing... whatever... But to say this was a BAD story... you need to read more and watch less Zoolander type flicks.

Re: *300* Movie Review *No Spoilers*
the story is interesting and could have been well done. but it was done terribly. the voiceover narration was bad. the plotting bad. the entire political subplot was laughable. as was the thing with the hunchback. the story was mangled and retarded.
maybe you are an idiot? i need to read more? watch more zoolander flicks? what the [censored] are you talking about. you are a moron kid. maybe just rent some gay porno and be done with it?

[/ QUOTE ] the haters on here amuse me. If you want to enjoy real cinema, then go watch 'Namesake' or whatever the [censored] is out. Otherwise, if you're a guy and you enjoy action I don't know how you can NOT enjoy this movie. According to polls or whatever, even the women enjoyed it as well. It was light on the emotional resonance, but I still admired how badass the Spartans were. This was a pure battle flick and battles usually take days. So of course it's going to take up the majority of the damn film. This was just a cool film that no one's seen before. If they had made it as any traditional epic, it would've just flopped like Alexander, King Arthur, and all other recent epics.

[/ QUOTE ] have you ever read the real story of theromapalye (?SP)????? The story was pretty accurate with just the Characters exagerated for affect and entertainment... I thought the voice-over setup the plot and the experience of the Spartan soldiers very well. The physcial characteristics (like the hunch-back) were suppose to be a story telling technique. I didn't go to film school... but I thought this movie was excellent. The pacing was good, the editing was a little goofy with all the slow-mo's... but over-all I thought it was ground breaking. Factor in that the actors were all performing against a blank green canvas... and you have some pretty powerful performances. Think of how piss poor the new Star Wars movies were in comparision. If you weren't at least entertained by this movie... I have to believe that you are one bitter-betty.
