The Making of 300:Part 1

My girlfriend doesn't understand the attraction to this film. She tuts and sighs whenever the trailer comes on, really frustrates me. She still believes there was no plot to Lord Of The Rings.
Women are mental.

ehem... as the resident female expert on balls-to-the-wall action films I have to argue that it's not a chick thing to dislike the action movies, I think it's more of a personal preference (although I am, admittedly, a rare bird)...

However, I do have to agree with bizinichi... the dialogue was HORRIBLE!!! as was most of the acting, and several subplots (undoubtedly added to pad the length of the film and have more opportunities for Gorgo to slink about in her gravity-defying costumes).

Frankly, as a fan of Frank Miller and a student of the classics to boot, I was highly anticipating this film, and turned out to be terribly disappointed... some of the decisions that were made seem totally inexplicable to me (ie, several awkward and unnecessary sex scenes, a 9-foot tall Xerxes, and the inclusion of a lobster-lad like monster to name a few)... and don't get me wrong, I am not one of those closeted scholar types who gets pissed off at historical misrepresentations in film, I likes me a good sword-and-sandal free for all probably more than most people, and I did enjoy Frank Miller's take on Thermopylae, have for several years now. But this, by movie standards, was BAD... I actually dozed off towards the end!

Damn raven, got all excited about something, but it wasn't some movie!!

Never Seen these movies m'self..
ET
Casblanca
The Godfather
Psycho

...and thought Empire Strikes Back was the best Star Wars, all the others sucked-ass!!! (cept' for certain scenes...)

I think their abs were airbrush enhanced half the time, at least for lonshots, to make them more reminiscent of the comic... that is what I liked about the movie, the visual look, the details, the costumes, really, at times superb, no complaints there... and the kickassery, lots of kickassery, which was definitely awesome.
