Quote:With a film like this, that's the only way to go. I don't think anyone is claiming that 300 is historically accurate. It's a movie based on a comic book based loosely on the Battle of Thermopylae. If it was trying to be historically accurate, it'd probably be pretty dull.
I wouldn't mind a historically-accurate film based one actual events surrounding the battle at Thermopylae. As was mentioned on another forum I frequent, the 'real' story was awesome enough in its' own right.
But a two-step-removed embellished awesomefest sounds good too. Planning on seeing it tonight.:shuriken:
