    Yeah, sickening....

    Stoopid Hollywood, the story is as good as it gets already, no need to change it...
    managed to defeat the huge Persian army at Thermopylae in 480 BC.

    Indeed, but I believe the 300 are the focus of the story - cannot remember if the 2000 or so Greek allies had a central role in the book.

    But the book doesnt even try to claim to be historically accurate.

    I repeat Its a film of the graphic novel

    Look what these bastards have done to Wales. They've taken our coal, our water, our steel. They buy our homes and live in them for a fortnight every year. What have they given us? Absolutely nothing. We've been exploited, raped, controlled and punished by the English — and that's who you are playing this afternoon Phil Bennett's pre 1977 Rugby match speech
