I have to see this the day it comes out.

This is not a rental, must see on the big screen.

i wanna see it too.

definitley agree, and while I've been to the theatre a lot since, I can't say I've said that since...maybe sin city? or ugh, maybe the last star wars. (sorry, you'll find no love of lotr here. I like to watch whole movies, not parts of them. imo, the 15+ hours of trolls and wizards should have been 2. for the enitre "trilogy".)

just found out the other day that they are releasing it in IMAX..... *drool*.....

lol! imax ohhhhh sh*t

Why don't those guys wear armor? I know it's hot in Greece and stuff but you've got a lot of important things going on in your torso. You know; heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, spinal column, etc. It seems kind of crazy to not wear wear any armor aside from the leg pieces and the helmet. And apparantly a big-___ shield.

Maybe it's just to show how badass the Spartans are.

"We don't need no stinkin body armor!"

actually some of those guys in the movie are wearing MORE armor than they did "back in the day". if you're at hand to hand combat with big spears and swords, a full suit of armor isn't going to do much besides hinder you. a shield is just abuot all you want, because half the time the guy who strikes first wins, and the other half is you get one parlay and then someone dies. there's not alot of back and forth action going on, this wasn't fencing.

& plus, what's more scary, guy running at you with a helmet, a sword and his balls hangin out running at you at full speed, or a fully armored guy running at you at less than half the speed.

everything back then was bronze or iron, i.e. heavy and hot(ever touch metal after it's been sitting outside in 95 degree weather?). they only wore just the bare minimum to keep themselves mobile and protected.

WOO-HOO for 300!...
Saw the Trailer in a Movie theatre..Like Whoa!!!!

actors are real. there are some cgi'd monsters, and cgi'd armies, but the actors and sometimes a few props are real.

Same way they made Sin City...same FX company etc...

OH...11:30pm on Spike they have a Special thing about 300...

So I went and saw 300 on Tuesday night and all i can say is WOW! Excellent movie! Probably one of the best movies i have seen in a long time. I suggest you all go see it!

your thinking too far ahead. lol. this isn't 3007

I saw the movie friday night. Holy crap. Bad friggin ___. Who knew the Phantom of the Opera could be that much of a bad ___.

I don't know why people got so excited over the previews, I thought they made the movie look cheesy.

I did go see it on opening day because I wanted to see it, but I wasn't surprised that it was a great movie.
