Normally this would not be worth posting, as movies go, but this movie in particular seems to be very unique: 300. 

Check out the trailer (Quicktime) here:

http://www.apple.com/trailers/wb/300/trailer1/large.html - http://www.apple.com/trailers/wb/300/trailer1/large.html

It's about the 300 Spartans that held off the Persian army of over 500,000 at Thermoplyae; who held on until their eventual defeat by millions of arrows fired by the Persians.

I've been waiting for this to become a movie for about 8 years now, ever since I read the graphic novel "300" by Frank Miller. All I can say after watching the trailer is... OH MY GOD! It is going to be such a good movie.

I can tell you with 100% certainty Cleo, that will not happen. This is going to be the exact graphic novel put to film.

I don't know the story, but it looks fairly cool, however the wannabe Russel Crow and Orlando Bloom are a bit cliché.

saw the trailer a few weeks ago

also read the book i love the spartans and reading about battles from that time period.. pity there arnt many modern film about them =(

those 300 Spartans 700 Thespians caused 20,000-50,000 persian casualties before dying

"Ctesias claims that the first 10,000 Persians killed only two or three Greeks"

"After their spears broke, the Spartans and Thespians kept fighting with their  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xiphos - xiphos (short swords), and after those broke, they were said to have fought with their bare hands, teeth and nails."

musta been one hell of a f**king battle, gotta have some balls to stand against 1,000,000-4,000,000 troops (numbers seem to deviate between historical sources) having said which they were trained from birth till 20 to be emotionless killing machines, death in battle was an honour not somthing to be feared

the thespians also dont get as much credit as i think they deserve.. for the spartans battle was thier life but the thespians who stayed were citizens who could have easily left but they stayed to fight alongside the spartans

if they wanted to be more historically correct, they fought naked, and that included cod pieces of a thousand penetrations.
