Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are good is like expecting the bull not to charge because you are a vegetarian.

300 was fucking cool, if you're such an uppity faggot that you can't appreciate the odd brainless action flick then that's your problem.
Heh, the idea that you hinted that Zack Snyder is a better director with a better track record than Tarantino is....I don't know, I just thought I'd point it out. It's pretty funny.
300 is trash and for pussies...
You're just a cook.
There's a difference between being a "brainless action flick," like Die Hard, and being a shitty movie, like 300.
A person getting stabbed in slow motion. That's all 300 amounts to. That's the entirety of the action. Slow motion stabbings. There's a 30 second shot of him killing 10 guys in the exact same way. And then, when it actually tries to have a story... holy fuck. How could you stand that shit? It doesn't have to be "high brow art," it has to be bearable. One scene had a character twist, an introduction of conflict, and a very lucky resolution to that conflict, all within one minute. It's like Transformers: throw enough money into special effects and hope no one realizes you put no effort into the actual filmmaking. Oh yeah, and lots of blood so people say it's a "guy movie." No. Goodfellas is a "guy movie." 300 was a movie for little boys.
Sometimes the best movies are the ones we make up...
Because it's a book about a man who doesn't know
He's about to die, and then dies.
But if a man does know he's about to die and dies anyway,
Dies willingly, knowing that he could stop it, then I mean,
Isn't that the type of man who you want to keep alive?-Zach Helm
This is madness
I shall watch this movie for the action I swear, not the boobies
I don't understand this. People read waaaaay too far into movies. I go see movies to be entertained. It doesn't matter how. If it's entertaining, then I am satisfied.
It must be hard to be a film critic because you are reading way too far into movies and over analyzing everything. 300 isn't supposed to be story driven. It's supposed to be a mindless eye feast. You are not supposed to analyze it any further than that.
And it wasn't a feast to the eyes. Therefore, it fails.
Movie looks fucking awesome. The art direction reminds me of the live action Casshern movie.
