A film adaptation of 300! I'd never heard of it before, but it piqued my interest because it touched on something i'm reading on, the Battle of Thermopylae. It's about the King Leonidas, and how him and his men repelled the Persian forces of Xerxes on the mountain pass of Thermopylae. Trailers shamelessly jacked from megatokyo forums.

Holy crap. Just saw the trailer, and... holy crap.
I LOVED the original graphic novel, which was known for having only two-page spreads. The trailer seems to be extra-widescreen, and the visual style is spot-on with the book.

SOOOOOO AWESOME!!!!

The movie looks badass. Definitely looking forward to this one.
I spent an hour or so reading the wiki about the Battle of Thermopylae the other night.

For all of you that already dont know of this movie , you should then be really exited right now , because i believe this will be the greatest movie in 2007. It looks just so frikking good , the cinematography the sets , the costumes its looks so frikking good.

Its a movie of the comic book 300 , based on the battle of thermopylae where 300 spartans fought against the persian army.

Hell ya I can't wait for this. Frank Miller is a comic legend. This film, just like his Sin City, will be almost shot-for-shot adaptation as the graphic novel.

Looks good, but besides the visual style there isn't anything spectacular in the trailer...

I got kinda a Matrix in Ancient Greece -feeling.

IGN Advance Review - Zack Snyder creates a masterpiece with this fantastic adaptation of the Frank Miller graphic novel - 5/5

Hell yes. I've been waiting for this movie for some time now, it looks freaking sweet. I wasn't really going to mind what critics say anyway, but it's always nice to hear good reviews.

300 is a historical epic film directed by Zack Snyder, scheduled to be released in 2007. Based on the epic graphic novel by Frank Miller, 300 is a ferocious retelling of the ancient Battle of Thermopylae in which King Leonidas and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes and his massive Persian army. Facing insurmountable odds, their valor and sacrifice inspire all of Greece to unite against their Persian enemy, drawing a line in the sand for democracy. The film brings Miller's acclaimed graphic novel to life by combining live action with virtual backgrounds that capture his distinct vision of this ancient historic tale.
