Re: 300

Whats the storyline? I saw the commercials and I was like cool but idk if I want to invest my time and money into seeing it.

It's about the Athenians going to war with Persia and Sparta sends 300 of their finest to aid the Athenians from the Persian king(I think King...), Xerxes.

I think that's the basic storyline.

It'll be epic.

Re: 300

it seems like it would be a good movie but i think they exagerated a bit. for example, there were not 1,000,000 people fighting against 300 spartans and i don't think there were any mystical creatures back then either. i'll still watch it though.

Re: 300

I've been reading good things about it and it seems like its going to be a pretty good movie. Of course there have been many movies I thought would be good and turned out not to be. I hope its good.

Greece and mythical creatures go together, they always have. The exaggerations will be for effect, that's why it's digitally computerized, to be able to present the movie with no limits.

Re: 300

There were 300 spartans at this battle, all 300 fought to the death. There were 100s of thousands of persians, 20,000 of them were killed by these spartans.

It's very much a true story.

Check wikipedia for the exact numbers of each side.

I didn't say what happened to the spartans because I didn't want to give the whole thing away.
