I know SOMEONE, SOMEWHERE has a comment about this film. It's a hell of an epic.
For those who have missed it: 300 is a film adaptation of a Graphic Novel by Frank Miller (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Miller_%28comics%29),which retells the battle of Thermopylae (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Thermopylae), a "last stand" in which about 1300 Greek soldiers (1000 from Thespis, 300 from Sparta, from which the film gets its name) hold a narrow pass (Called the "Hot Gates" in the film. . .ya'll can make the dirty jokes later) off from the Persian Army, which outnumbered the Greeks in every way.
Every shot is perfect, you can see the pages of the novel turn.
But of course, most everyone is thinking about something else....
Gerard. Fucking. Butler. Oh, my god, this man is something else! No wonder all the UK members wanted to keep him to themselves! Yeah, the script of 300 was a little overwrought in places (but it's a popcorn flick, so it's somewhat okay) but Butler makes every word very important, and you take him SERIOUSLY, which is hard to do when you're wearing this:

Prepare for glory, indeed . . .<drool>
So, anyone else see it? Anyone else WANT to see it? Anyone want spoilers or someone to watch the movie with because they need companies to share teh hawt?
