. . . guys, I saw a trailer for 300 last night for the first time and it looked bad. Really bad. Bad like one of bad those car ads where the car goes through a landscape that's meant to look tough and intimidating because 95% of the colour has been removed in post-production, and the car's getting rocks and lightning and shit thrown at it and people are shouting at it and its dodging and weaving around everything and there's some really atrocious generic hard rock soundtrack . . . the trailer looked like that, only without the car.

Then you probably won't like the whole movie. Multiply what you saw by an hour and a half, and you've got yourself 300.

Inlander:
Then I probably won't go and see it! Not to mention my moral issues surrounding the depiction of gratuitous violence in the service of entertainment . . .

Just a quick question: is the whole film in slow motion, or did they just do that to make the trailer look dramatic?

Inlander:
I have a strange feeling that that should be a crime. "Crimes against tommyism" maybe?

Pretty much the whole film.

Joseph:
I saw the movie last night, and even in Imax, I found it underwhelming.  It was visually stunning, yes, but the writting just seemed very weak.  It felt very much like they left behind any idea of decent acting or ideas in order to make the movie look good.  It was entertaining, but I still left sorely disapointed.  The fact that one of my friends I saw it with has seen it three times, and thinks it's a piece of cinematic genius, the best movie he's seen in years, annoys me a fair bit.
