Talcian Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 Anyone seen it yet? I haven't, so no spoilers but is it worth seeing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celerity Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 I heard it doesn't follow the comic that closely and introduces some new things like Persian monsters and a lead female char. But, this is just from my brother and I haven't seen it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Questioner Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 There is a comic about it? Why would you look at the comic for the information about the 300 spartans? The real facts are awesome enough. I heard that the movie was really good. Going to see it this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celerity Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 This movie is based on the comic, not historical fact.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malanith Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 I'm sure the people who spent $78 million over the weekend can't be wrong. But then again, Home Alone proves that theory wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchaeius Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 Stay thy tongue, heathen! Home Alone is a classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grishnak Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 Go into the movie expecting a movie, not a comic, not a historical account, and it will absolutely knock your socks off. One of the most beautiful movies I've seen in a long, long time if nothing else. The story is simple, but deep and motivating. I think it captures the heart of Sparta, if not the history of the time. All this coming from a classicist, so you know I'm gunna be nit-picking this movie (man did Troy ever piss me off the first time I saw it).

Chromatic Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 I've had plans to see it every day since it came out and been waiting 3 months for it to come out...but still haven't yet. I am determined to see it tomorrow, I'll tell you what I think, then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evangelion Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 This movie is a perfect oppurtunity for me to leap back onto the forums. Speaking of perfect... it is the only way to describe this movie. A unique blend of CGI and acting, it dots all the "i"s and crosses all the "t"s. While it may not be historically accurate, it is historically asskicking. There are a number of lines in the movie that will have you either A) Laughing, Saying to yourself, "Holy **** that's good writing," or C) Both. The dialogue fits the setting unlike any other movie I've ever seen. The Spartans have just the right amount of emotion, while maintaining an outer shell of cold, battle-hardened focus. If you've seen the trailers, you'll be waiting for certain parts of the movie to happen. And when they do, you'll be like, "**** yeah!" I give the movie a perfect 10 out of 10. It has just the right amount of swords, sex, and slaughter for my taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
