It's "Just Like You Imagined" by Nine Inch Nails, and I damn near pooped `em when I heard it in the trailer the first time. So good.

I'm seeing this and I'm probably going to end up getting all pumped up and yelling at the screen

SPAAAAARRRRRRTTTTAAAAAAAAA~!

ampersandwitch:
Yer gonna get more than a cookie for being as excited about it as I was.

The Cosmic Fool:
Just a note for all future historical crack-addicts.

This movie isn't based on the actual events in history. It's solely based on Frank Miller's graphic novel. So when they say a "1000 nations of the Persian Empire" and "300 against 1 Million", they seriously mean that in his novel, that's pretty much how it goes.

Besides, I don't want to see what really happened. I want Frank Miller to tell me how it happened. I want a million soldiers from a massive empire to try and fight against 300 of the finest soldiers in the world. I want to hear about the mythos of the Spartans. History can take a back seat on this one.

Ozymandias:
If you want history in your movie, The 300 Spartans is probably a lot closer, though not nearly the truth since it's still a movie and the actual truth will never be known, since the Greeks loved mixing their history with their mythology.

I will not be seeing 300 for history.

I will be seeing 300 to watch 300 Kratoses severely rain hell down upon a shitload of Persian dudes. That is my idea of the perfect movie right there.

This week I will be playing God of War nonstop.
Then watching 300.
Then the week after, playing God of War 2 nonstop.

Fuckin' good month for Spartans, man.

Dimmukane:
I'm not seeing it for history either, I'm seeing it because it looks badass and got a 100% at rotten tomatoes.  But the history behind the whole thing is fucking awesome anyways.
