HAY GUYS

Yeah, if the film is modeled directly after the source material, then el jacko is pretty much saying the comic is gay irregardless of his ignorance.

You're not really making much of a point here.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Wow, I gotta this movie looks incredible! They were showing the trailer during the previews before Ghost Rider. Really impressive visuals with the cgi environments. I'll definitely be checking this one out, if not opening night then for sure the weeknd of. Hell, I think I'll even look into grabbing the trade for it.

Love the NiN song they used in the trailer too, kicks ass!

This film looks excellent, I cannot wait until its release. Finally something worth watching at the theatre.

TONIGHT WE DIE IN HELL!!!!

Yeah, I'm probably going to see this.. It would be the first movie I saw in theatres since Pirates of the Carribean 2, but it looks worth its 9.50.

How ya doing, buddy?

You know, it's odd. This movie has all the things I hated about the Matrix sequels (except bad plot): over-used slow motion, over-used color correction, way too much unnatural choreography, and lots and lots of CGI; and yet I'm totally going to enjoy this movie! I don't even feel like this movie can disappoint (of coarse, that's how i felt about Matrix Reloaded). Maybe it's the fact that I already know and like the story (as opposed to weak plot), and maybe the cinematography is just way better than I'm used to. Maybe it's because the slo-mo, color correction, and CGI are used ARTFULLY rather than just thrown in there for cool points. Maybe it's the idea that the slow motion and choreography help illustrate the emotion, ferrocity, and skill of the 300 Spartans' final moments, and not just "Hey guyz, let's slow down this long kung-fu fight to show how cool it is!". Maybe its the idea that this movie is true to a very awesome source material, which in turn is based on a true story that is well known. I don't know what it is that makes this movie seem so much better despite it's Hollywoodness (MADNESS?), but I do know that I'm going to watch this movie and be extremely entertained by it.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I just came out from the movie (which I saw in advance screening).

No spoilers ahead.

So here comes the main opinion: If you like blood, battle and special effects, this is full of it. You're going to get 2h00 of that and only that. The story is secondary to the visual effects and battles if you ask me. Expect to see lots of blood and gore.

The music of the movie isn't that bad considering it's the first time I ever hear about this composer.

So that's my opinion. If you want to see 2hours of intense battle, blood and gore. Go see this movie. If you're not in the mood for that. Don't go.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Thanks for the review; that's pretty much what I thought this film would contain after seeing the trailers. It looks like a CG version of an ancient-greece-based DBZ game.

Hantei · Local time: Mar 6, 2007, 12:16 AM

Lol, nothing to spoil as far as story. Quite simply 300 Spartans fight to death against a million Persians. Simple, basic, all we need to know. Haha, I'd be surprised if people went into this expecting a story like Gladiator's. Hell, even the director said he's not even interested in doing an accurate retelling of history.

Intense battle, blood, and gore is exactly what I'm expecting and wanting to see. This'll be one kick ass movie!

I'm going to be seeing this at the local Omni-max on Friday. I'll be sure to post a review when I get back.

Bradylama · Local time: Mar 6, 2007, 07:06 PM

No shit it's not supposed to be a direct re-telling of history, it's based on a comic book. In terms of story, 300's plot was severely outpaced by its themes.

Taterdemalion · Mar 7, 2007, 09:41 AM

It seems that everything any character says in this movie is badass.
"The arrows will block out the sun"
"Then we'll fight in the shade."

"Spartans, lay down your weapons!"
"Persians, come and get them!"

Even if the story may be thin, I'd gladly take this type of style over substance any day.

It's because those lines are actually said in history, much to the delight of military history buffs. The first was said by Dienekes with the "shade" thing. The second line with the Persians is the English term for "Molon Labe!"

Having read the story of the war as well as the comic, I can't help but feel excited. Definitely watching it this Friday.

How ya doing, buddy?

I have a question, for anyone that has seen the movie or knows quite a bit about it. Do the Spartans use the phalanx formation for most of the fighting?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Chie · Mar 7, 2007, 08:09 PM

Going to watch this movie on the weekend, not on friday like the early goers.
Even though the story is obvious the midway battles look worth going for.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

From what I've read and seen in the graphic novel, they do use it at least twice (or three times, I think).
