first i say it and i'm homophobic, now i say it and i'm a homo... you fags need to make up your minds. sorry to be mean, but believe it or not there really are people who are disgusted by gayness. I was disgusted by gayness until I became comfortable in my sexuality too. -------------------- Holy shit, pebkac, you're awesome!

first i say it and i'm homophobic, now i say it and i'm a homo... you fags need to make up your minds. sorry to be mean, but believe it or not there really are people who are disgusted by gayness. and when i was talking about the lack of body fat in the movie, i was referring to it historically. as in, i kinda doubt the real spartans had muscles like that. im willing to bet it wasnt that far off. if you know at all what the spartan army was. they were considered the elite and trained since a young age. fatasses and skinny lanky dudes wouldnt survive that -------------------- death to false dudes

The movie lacked plot and was propaganda. The west vs. the persians.

But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?

It wasn't really expecting anything great from the plot or dialogue of the movie. The movie is based off of a Frank Miller book. Everything he does is just good looking and fun to read. I enjoyed it though.

Iranians are ethnically persian
I was not serious about the propaganda comment per se. I just found it some what interesting that this movie was released at the same time that American rhetoric was building against Iran. ummm, The persian army did have elephants -------------------- A psychotic world we live in.

The Iranians don't get that the American government doesn't want to turn their country into a parking lot because they are ethnically Persian. The United States wants to make glass Iran's principle export because they're asstacularly insane.
America has a similar attitude towards North Korea for the same reason, yet they're "little yeller fellers." |

It was also a joke.... per se? And i still don't get the iranian thing... its not like the bush administration put this movie out. Its a classic battle where they could give us gore and nudity, perfect for a movie. -------------------- |

I'm actually suprised at how long they've stayed popular. -------------------- Brandon....you're the reason I'm pro-choice.

Funny how an ancient historical event represented in a current day movie is automatically propoganda.
What you should be worried about is the fact that we're still hostile with each other even from ancient greek times. I wouldn't expect anyone to think about that. It's always America's fault because we're the big boy. It could never be that the Middle East is full of a bunch of suicidal douchebags. -------------------- "Ah, y'know it's funny, these people they go to sleep, they think everything's fine, everything's good.
