300 ---can anyone guess what this movie will be about? info


A movie is in production called--- 300

... as in 300 Spartans!

It is an adaptation from the graphic novel by Frank Miller (Sin City), about the 300 Spartans in the battle of Thermopylae.

The production stuff looks really good so far.

The fact that its about the 300 Spartans makes me excited already.

I don't know if its going to be completely historically accurate, since it based off the graphic novel not history books. But as long as they stick with the main details, and with the spirit of what that battle represented, then thats good enough for me.

The only bad part its not out till 2007.

Like I mentioned its based directly off a graphic novel, so it may have a comic book look to it, similar to Sin City. I don't think thats bad, it should be interesting.

Odds are I will be able to buy a DVD of it here about two weeks before the premier in the US.

I have movies I bought that have the "Property of Paramount" on them. I have two that have "Advance copy for MMPA screening" on them. This is beyond pirating, its industrial espionage.

I think it is gonna be a biased and stupid movie against the Persians.
