Looks kick-ass... but then trailers usually do.

Very stylistic.

King Leonidas better be bad ass.

I didn't see any pretty Orlando-Bloom types, so it gives me hope. Maybe they aren't doing the ol' "Something to appeal to the ladies, too" bullshit that dilutes good movies.

This is my favourite historical battle. I will kill them if they fuck it up.

I read Miller's graphic novel it was pretty cool.

You can see the theatrical trailer on the website.

It looks to be a bit longer and has a few new scenes in it.

Frank Miller, writer of the graphic novel, apparently has been very happy with what he's seen.

Frank's done some decent work thus far, and you can probably expect more in the future.

The more I see the 300 trailer, the more I want to be there opening night.

I'm finding myself really anticipating the release of this film.

I might need to freeze myself until it is released.

Hope I don't wake up to sea otters.

Didn't like that episode.

Post by **Leisher** » Tue Jan 16, 2007 4:52 pm

Two episodes actually.

No, it wasn't their best work, but there were some good moments.
-Mrs. Garrison was hilarious in part 1 with his/her anti-evolution stuff.
-Butters is always hilarious.
-Cartman's entire gratify me NOW attitude was, I thought, an example of the U.S.'s same attitude. Why the fuck are people camping out for a damn console?

Ok, maybe the future stuff was odd, but still, odd is their thing.

You ever been up in a cockpit before?

You ever seen a grown man naked before?

Do you spend a lot of time in the locker room at school?

Have you ever been in a Turkish prison?

I love Airplane.

But as for your homoerotic suggestion, no I don't swing that way. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I just don't see how anyone male can watch that teaser trailer and not get hyped up. (Unless you're the type of guy who is thisclose to being Wonder Woman, of course.)

I mean it's 300 versus 100,000+ and the 300 act like they're going to win. I'm not sure how they could even fight with balls that big.

The sheer arrogance is so impressive. I guess I never realized that the Spartans were actually U.S. Marines. (Did you just hear Gordo laugh?)

P.S. Bought the graphic novel today. I never read Sin City so I don't know how closely the film followed the books, but I had heard they were almost dead on. So I figured since this is supposed to be similar, I'd check it out and see if it's true.

Leisher: Stop fantasizing about Paul dressed up as Wonder Woman.
Paul: Stop fantasizing about Leisher fantasizing about you dressed up as Wonder Woman.

I have the perfect response to that comment...

300 actual Marines wouldn't have lost.

Hey! I don't judge you for molesting small woodland creatures.

300 actual Marines wouldn't have lost.

That's because they would've had Air Force support.

They sure as hell would have if they only had their Mameluke swords.

My unbreakable wrist cuffs, lasso of truth, and invisible jet would have kicked their asses though!

Espcially when you think about what one motivated Marine and his rifle can do.
