Title: 300
Post by: Rictor on October 11, 2006, 06:24:23 pm

New movie coming out based on Frank Miller's graphic novel (Frank Miller is the guy who made the Sin City comics).

Cool, no? From what I've seen it stays very true to the comic, and that's party why it looks so awesome. They've got the visuals down perfect, now we can only hope that the story and acting are on par.

Can't wait to see this. Sin City was one of the best movies i've seen in a good long while, and 300 is half as good, it'll still be awesome.

Looks very sweet and its an intresting story. Gerard Butler really fits the role as the Spartan King Leonidas. looking forward to see it

what the **** is up with that stupid ****ing music

it's visually surprisingly close to Miller's work - although I honestly think he is an overrated artist, although a good writer - but this entire teaser just gives me a feeling not unlike Bad Boys 3: SPARTA

No likey the music? I thought it was great. Yes, the whole "electronic music where it doesn't belong" thing has been done to death, but in this case I found it fit well and wasn't gratuitous. Frank Miller may not be a great technical artist, but he's very stylish. The 300 graphic novel looks amazing, no doubt about it.

That was a lot of arrows. Gerard Butler is cool. He was the Phantom..  :nervous:

Yeah, too bad The Phantom of the Opera is a disgrace to musical theater.

Looks like **** to me. Five dollar CGI and some stupid music.

I hope the writing is redeeming, because the acting and the setting sure as hell aren't.
