You'd be amazed at how many times this movie will be quoted for historical purposes by those weak in cranial exercise. This is not to mention those who have such weak academic progams that they'll never be taught the truth and forever will have their historical view skewed.

RE: any number of entertaining movies at the cost of historical accuracy.

P.S. I remember hearing many a student trying to source Jim Garrison's speech/closing argument in Oliver Stone's JFK and courtroom testimony. The real Jim Garrison never made that speech and much of the testimony is a bit of hollywood gold..lol
Like when Pearl Harbor came out and hecka people(especially girls) thought it was the shiznat! And Im here goin that WHOLE darn movie was pathetic and a total waste of time(I feel really bad for the Vets who went to see it), TORA!TORA!TORA! whupps that movie day and night, including weekends. But nobody listened to me until waaay after it's release and the historical aspects began slamming it did they agree with me(retards). The 300 will most likely draw the LoTR crowd and what-not. I'm still gonna see 'cuz I already no the parts that are fake and all and will enjoy it for what it's worth.
