Well, it looks like Frank Miller's '300' will be a visually stunning film if this trailer is anything to go by, and entertaining.

If anybody needs me I will be crying in the corner.
Blech. 300 Spartans, and 3000 others did not stand by and do their duty to be treated thusly.
Yeah, I just saw the trailer yesterday. It made me want to weep--and not with joy. Why couldn't they have based it off of Steven Pressfield's Gates of Fire instead? That would have been a million times better.....![]()

If it's a good film, I won't care about the 'it's not historical' brigade, I'll enjoy it and it will hopefully generate enormous interest in ancient Greek history; if not, then I'll slate it.
If I want the most contemporary account possible then I'll read Herodotus, in classical Greek.![]()

Maybe the Spartans will fight with an underarm motion with sarisassas... because that would be realistic (CA)
Cowardice is to run from the fear;
Bravery is not to never feel the fear.
Bravery is to be terrified as hell;
But to hold the line anyway.
