Although its fantasy based on a real event the attitude is what Sparta was like. Hollywood killed Alexander, that wasn't even historically correct. Then what they did to Troy was a joke... Achilles was already dead when the Trojan horse went into troy...
So this movie should be good.
That's good to hear. I was a little worried that they were going to add too much. If the Greeks bless off on it, it can't be too far off.
Cool.
Now, I just have to wait a couple weeks to watch Leonidas crushing fuckers with his aspis.

I still haven't heard critique on the historical aspect of the battle. Regardless of the "Hollywood" painting there are still the facts of the battle, the build up to and the actual fight. The three walls, to be betrayed by the hearder that showed the Persians the rout around the mountain to encircle the Spartans. Anyway this should be a cool movie regardless of history.

It's almost here. My Dad told me to wait until he comes down in three weeks, so we can go see it together. I guess I'll just have to see it twice because I'm not waiting!
