And I'm pretty sure German women couldn't massacre legionaries with giant axes.

Well, actually 300 wasn't based on the historical event, rather than a comic which in turn was inspired by it. Let us not forget that, folks. Not backing their idiocy in portraying the Persians as they did and such, just stating the facts.

What do you mean by Ray Bradbury?

Also, am not really sure if they actually fought in battles, although isolated cases are very likely, given the ferocity of the Germanic tribes. It may also be possible that the women pursued fleeing enemies, however that is just my guess. I seriously doubt the women actually did that. Still, the morale-raising chanting/singing/screeching/cheerleading special ability that the Screeching Women had in RTW was very much accurate.

@ Maion Maroneios: Well, then both the comics and the movie is INACCURATE! THIS IS EB FORUM!!! *kicks the movie and the comics 300 into a deep, dark well*!

Sorry, couldn't help but using the 300 catchphrase against itself.

Too many syllables, man. THIS IS EB would probably be fine.

And have you ever heard of Fahrenheit 451?

1: You say "EB FORUM" very fast to compensate for the extra syllables.

2: Ooohhh, III geeett iiittt! I must be really slow! Yes, I have read both Fahrenheit 451 and The Martian Chronicles in addition to a collection of his short stories. I am a sci-fi/historical fiction fan myself. Along with Jules Verne (my favorite!) and Isaac Asimov, he is a must-read classic. BTW, what's your favorite author?
