It was effing amazing!!!111
I saw it opening night took me awhile to convince them my ID was real but they let me and I covered for a bunch of my friends too...anyway it was amazing it was like...a two hour cinematical trailer...every part of the movie sent shivers up my spine, it made the hairs stand on the back of my neck like when i saw the World of warcraft intro cinematics!

300 -> MUST SEE!!!

Amazing movie. I saw it the other night. Spartans are the definition of heart.

Re: 300
 

I thought it looked like a big dumb action movie that would appeal to Myspace's young hip crowd (they sure were plugging the movie quite a bit)...

Then I found out it was based on another Frank Miller 'graphic novel' (Sin City was fun) and directed by the guy who did the Dawn of the Dead remake (one of the few decent remakes) and I became slightly more intrigued...

But I'm not too huge on brainless over-the-top action... Soo...
Maybe I'll see it eventually...

Here's a clip of one of the action sequences, likely to put hair on your chest while watching.

Also, don't assume that just because the movie features some incredible violence and action that it completely lacks any form of intelligence. There's a well written and real entertaining story to be seen.

At no point in time did I find the movie to be dumb.

Re: 300
 

How violent exactly is it? Can you give me a comparison?

Re: 300
 

god of war violent?

Re: 300
 

Have you seen Sin City?

Re: 300
 

At one point there were so many horses. And I was looking over at my friend Kyle and I was like "OMG KYLE! THERE ARE SO MANY HORSES!"

"WHAT IS YOUR PROFESSION?!"

Re: 300
 

that made absolutely no sense...

Re: 300
 

Does too. The what is your profession thing was an awesome quote from the movie.

Re: 300
 

oh...damn it! i want to watch it! maybe this coming weekend...

Re: 300
 

No I didn't see Sin City or play God of War, so I still have no idea how violent. Worse than... LotR, Troy, Gladiator etc?
