Quote:Why can't they do a film of Gates of Fire instead of that CGI mess? A lack of armor leaps to mind as a small problem with a film allegedly dealing with Hoplytes . . . I guess the graphic novel used a similar convention.

There's so much historically wrong with Miller's version of 300, the lack of armor is just the tip of the iceberg.
With that said, even though I'm an Ancient Greek/Ancient Philosophy double major, I'm excited to see this film come out.
The downside is I'll have to stop naming characters Leonidas, since well... come march it won't be so unique anymore;)
