Ey, I hearing a lot of talk going around about how 300 was just "all-right". "All-right" ? That moive was one of the dreadest things I ever see on a cinema sreen. Taht picture put Matrix 1 to shame. The only thing that I cyah put it above is the LOTR, and LOTR had a real big stroy to work with that Tolkien and sons was workig with for years.

300 take something that was chiefly historical and turned it into something real moving and deep. Matrix had rasta-man bawling in the cinema because Neo was dodging bullets, flying,... But 300, to me, was soooo deep, it went beyond the action scenes...
What you appreciate more than anything was the idea behind it. The philosophy behind it was what had man making the war-cry (more like war grunt) while they coming out the cinema and while they lining up in KFC.

That picture was better than Troy and all. I guess Troy you really feel it when Achilles dead. I couln even sleep the first time I read that book. But in 300, all of dem dead out and it was still real good. Best depiction ever of Heroic Death. It even beat back Shane.

Pity it illegal to be spartan in these days.

300 was a very bess movie. Lots of action, but it wasnt DEEP. It was a "videogame" movie. Lots of action to keep you entertained. Perfect for the Trinidad crowd.

Took me a while to like Troy. The fight scenes in that movie you can tell were rushed in comparison to others, close camera, quick motion from half a move into another....they filmed one attack, cut, paste and joined it to another, and it was clear to see....no full frame fighting like in 300.

Matrix and LOTR had FULL FRAME fighting and it was long as well. The Camera did not switch, meaning LOS was heald for a certain time and full motion full frame moves were seen. now THAT is how you do a fight scene.

that movie was damn Good, long time since i enjoyed a movie so much at the cinema. the action was crazy like that part just before they push the persiands off the cliff, just stomping forward killing everyone chopping legs and stuff. One line i like from that movie.

"Give them nuthing, But take from them Everything!"

I saw it yesterday and all I hadda say is BAW... best movie i've seen in ages! and imho the biggest line in that movie was "Only Spartan Women give birth to REAL MEN" (or something to that effect)... that was priceless:
Cost of Persian message b1tch jewelery: 500 gold
Cost of Persian bodyguards: 200 gold
Cost of Persian horses: 350 Gold
Getting wtfpwned in words by a SPARTAN woman: Priceless
And another thing, it SUCKS that in the end they actually LOST that fight.... 3 to 1 ain't bad... but I guess they weren't as good as the 300!

Too bad in a way their pride led to their downfall... freedom ain't so free to be sure... but then was it really ever?

greyfox · « **Reply #53 on:** March 26, 2007, 10:27:38 AM »

we might see a sequel though, i mean we didn't see that shadow guy that they showed ontop the moutain (where the oracle was) die. if they did i must have missed it.

W1nTry · « **Reply #54 on:** March 26, 2007, 11:54:02 AM »

nah... let's NOT have a sequel... just leave it be... time for some other EPIC story from the history books...

Cross · « **Reply #55 on:** March 26, 2007, 11:58:57 AM »

Sequel?......uhhhhhhhhhh nah.....i took in again in MT this weekend and AGAIN i was at the edge of my seat....

My best guess would be a prequel where they actually won a big battle......cause I think the whole story in 300 was the fact the 'few stood against many...'

For them to have a Sequel would be a literal kill off of the sparatan storyline...

By chance anyone had got a God of War like feeling while watching this movie? Kratos was sparatan ent?

Well a sequel would have to be decades LATER, since the Persian Empire occupied Greece for at least 100 yrs to follow.. something like alexander the great finally managed to get them out by rallying most of europe or something like that (I am not a history boff)... so in a sense the sequel... was a rather queer film (:p @ collin farrell). As I said moving along to the next 'EPIC' war...

but then who's the shadow guy? did i miss something?

wasnt alexander, alexander WAS persian... lawl super duper not history buff lol

the spartans beat the persians. the persians toppled athens and made a nice lil burning crusade across greece, and the other greeks relied on the might of the spartans to take back the war.

they launched their fleet and used the same stratergy of luring the persians into a strait and dessimating their fleet, then the spartans pushed them out of europe and all the way back to persia.

the athenians then took control of greece again, thru money an politics, figures, and used the spartans as the military might of greece.

THey really were the best.
Decended from achilles himself they say...
