I couldn't look at that trailer, is that the film based on the Frank Millar graphic novel?

Looks good. But the 300 Spartan army movie has been done a few times already. Hopefully Frank Miller can make it better. Troy, in my opinion, set the bar for the Greek myth movie this day in age.

I have to agree, that was a rather shitty movie. Gladiator IMO is the best.

Gladiator has set the bar - Troy fell very short, as did that other pile of crap with the Lord of the rings guy in it.

I think I'd be too distracted by the over stylized way it's been filmed. I didn't really like Sin City for that same reason. It was a good story, but the fanboy moving comic book look just bugged the hell out of me. A Scanner Darkly just flat out pissed me off just looking at it.
If the story doesn't require it to be over-stylized, it shouldn't be. |

Both 300 and Grindhouse (whic I have already screened both) are going to blow people away. Serious.

Yeah. Either that or it's just made that way to make fanboys swoon and shell out more money.

I love taking USC's CTCS 466 class, taught by Professor Leonard Maltin. We get to see movies before they come out!
Anyway, this movie was AWESOME. I highly recommend every WC male to watch it, because it's a total guy movie. Lots of violence, blood, gore, incredible visuals (director Zach Snyder did an amazing job matching the graphic novel feel of the story, which is based off the Frank Miller comic). And even random nudity in the form of a love scene which came out of nowhere, even to me (and I hardly ever analyze films) and a sensuous dance by a beautiful "oracle" before she predicts the future. Oh, and for the guys who want to convince the ladies to watch, just tell them they to see 300 really buff, muscular, totally ripped Spartans wearing little more than a cape and short shorts. For the guys who want to get the guys to watch... the Oracle girl is hot. Anyway, this movie is absolutely gorgeous and everything I expected it to be. It's Gladiator meets The Matrix meets Sin City, and after watching it, I'd even throw in a little bit of Lord of the Rings. Now, I will say that is EXTREMELY violent. Lots of graphic gore and blood and decapitation and impalement, so I wouldn't take the kids. But for the guys... WATCH THIS FILM. Oh yeah, and we had the director in class, and he pointed out something that I noticed as well. The film is aware of what it is. It doesn't take itself super seriously. It doesn't try to be historically accurate or anything. It operates as the cinematic form of a graphic novel. So there are some things that are intentionally absurd, but done so because it's fun. Like Leonidas casually eating an apple after the Spartans destroyed the first horde of Persians. Last edited by Corkscrewed; 03-09-2007 at 03:24 AM. |

'Cause the way newsboards have been going on about Kurrgan being in this movie, they made it seem like he had a large part in the movie.
