Frank Miller's "300"




Read the story as a kid.* Reread the Comic book. Saw the trailer at Comicon. For a movie starring "The Phantom of the Opera" and wickedly directed by the Zack Synder who kicked ass with the "Dawn of the Dead" remake, this shouldn't disappoint.


*300 Spartans (and 700 Thespians) fought the Persian army at the Battle of Thermapylae over four days and took out 50,000 men, before dying in battle themselves.

What a bunch of badasses!

Got werewolves in it?

--sorry. Kidding.

Looks pretty cool actually. Maybe Gerry Butler can successfully take over the " Believable Bad Ass Warrior in a Historical Action Film " World Heavyweight title, previously held by Russell Crowe.
Because you know, Brad Pitt & Orlando Bloom were washouts in that department.
