They're not Gerard Butler white. Most of the guys, I felt, were WAY too "Anglo-Saxon" looking, if you take a look at the art from the graphic novel you'll understand where I'm coming from.

I did. Didn't really matter to me as I wanted to see a mindless action movie, and the movie delivered that IN SPADES.

Hang on...

I didn't give a shit about the storyline, I just wanted to see some mindless action and you have to admit that 300 delivered that in spades.

Then start copywriting them, or stop leaving them in the open for anyone to pick up and use.

How come you think that? I'm not starting a fight, I'm just curious. My main issue with that movie was the abundance of scary nipples.

the 300 graphic novel was all about the actually fighting. It was great and had some amazing action scenes, and the story stays mostly true to that. The difference between the men in the graphic novel and in the movie is that in the graphic novel the people actually look Greek, not white. For the movie they decided to add in the arc with the wife and it just came out as tacky and useless.....and really, really predictable.
I guess I hated it the most because I was expecting Sin City but with Spartans.....but man.....it sucked.

What? You didn't like the movie because the actors' hue of skin was slightly different from what it was in a comicbook? I've heard some bad reasons for not liking a movie like "I noticed a lot of clipping, which suggests bad takes" or "In my imagination Shrek's voice was slightly shriller" but what the hell?
