300 sucked

[NorCal510]

How can anybody rave about this movie? I was watching the movie the whole time wondering why everyone thought this was the best movie of the year, even ever!

This movie was a 6 out of 10.

:td

[JoeChalupa]

Because you are not a real man. I watched it and it rocked!!

[E20]

Alvarez and Leetoindas are gonna go crazy on you.

[SpursWoman]

It was a great movie. :wtf

[BeerIsGood!]

I guess the stylized version of the Battle of Thermopylae was lost on his 14 yr old undeveloped mind. He probably thought they were going for realism.

[Trainwreck2100]

So is GiG # 301?

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

Sucks = 6/10?

[dickface]

So is GiG # 301?
:lol
well done, sir

[SAtoDallas]

Overrated!

[leemajors]

it didn't suck, but it wasn't all that either. it was ok.

[florige]

I think what made 300 more appealing was due to all the non-stop action that was thru out the movie.

[Leetonidas]

Meh...if you don't like war movies, then whatever. I love ancient war movies like 300, Gladiator, Alexander, etc.

However, 6/10 would be considered "above average" because 5/10 would be considered "average." So therefore, your rating is off, and your title makes no sense.

Me thinks you made this topic just to piss me and Alvarez off. :lol

[JoeChalupa]

I think what made 300 more appealing was due to all the non-stop action that was thru out the movie.

For me it reminded me of..."Semper Fi!!!"

I loved it but I know it is not for everyone, especially Norcal. He and GIG should stick to Teenage Mutant Turtles.

[v2freak]

It was good, but I agree that it was overrated. I'd give it an 8/10, not a 10/10, 11/10 or whatever other people are giving it. I still think Troy edges it by a little bit.

[atxrocker]

sorry it wasn't homo enough for you, norcal.

[atxrocker]

it's troy, in my opinion that is overrated.

[L.I.T]

The only entertaining part of Troy was watching Peter O'Toole and Eric Bana trying to prop up their co-stars.

300 is what it is, a stylized action film; and was a damn good one.

[NorCal510]

yes... troy was probably better.

what i'm saying is that the movie is totally overhyped when it was only "ok". It didn't suck, but it sucked if you compare it to what others think about the movie.

[Vizzini]

I saw it this weekend, it was all right, I guess it didn't live up to the hype that I had heard before. I'd give it a 6/10.

Seriously, Orlando Bloom should have died, along with his slut girlfriend. That's how the story goes. Plus having to sit through his shitty acting. a death of that little weiner would have been worthwhile.

[ALVAREZ6]

Alvarez and Leetoindas are gonna go crazy on you.Nah, who the fuck takes NorCal that seriously?



He is entitled to his (inferior) opinion.

[v2freak]

Obviously it doesn't follow the story perfectly. Very few movies do

[L.I.T]

When Orlando Bloom stumbles up to Bana after getting his ass kicked you could almost see him thinking: "WTF was that? Fucking casting couch decisions."

[Trainwreck2100]

It was based off a comic book based off the story, and it follows the comic book verbatim. The only thing added was the wife's story arc

[v2freak]

Talking about Troy

[Louae]

I didn't think 300 was very good. The action scenes were very good and I loved how the Spartans fought in the battle scenes by working as a unit. But the acting was so over the top and constant throughout the film, it wore thin on me. Since I didn't pay for it, I wasn't too upset about spending the 2 hours to see it, but I wouldn't watch it again.

[gay abc]

great "soft porn" movie :eyebrows

[SpursWoman]

:lol

[atxrocker]

i re-watched this movie on dvd yesterday and still enjoyed it. great action flick. plus, the wife is HOT.

[JoeChalupa]

Yeah she was!! I caught myself yelling some quotes from the movies all day long. "Give them nothing! But take from them everything!"

[slayermin]

Visually, the movie is smorgasborg for the senses. I want to watch the high def. version, just to experience it again.

But the story had a couple of inconsistencies and I thought they used slow motion a little too much for the battle scenes. No one can duplicate Guy Ritchie's boxing slow motion work in Snatch, imo.

[leemajors]

someone thought alexander and/or troy were watchable? :rollin

Every movie has inconsistencies and I thought the slow motion action was awesome. I actually thought they were better than Ritchie's and Woo's.

[atxrocker]

:lol

seriously, i was thinking the same thing.

[ZStomp]

I agree. It sucked ass...

[Viva Las Espuelas]

i thought Sin City sucked as well, amidst all that hype, so I hope this one is not as sucky as the suckiness of the suckful Sin City.

[Spam]

Sin City sucked major ass.

[Spam]

But 300 kicked ass!!

[Avitus1]

300 was awesome! It was just like the comic which was a stylized retelling of the Battle of Thermopylae. Probably should of looked into it before you went to see it.

Someone liked Alexander?

[Leetonidas]

Meh, it could've been better, but I still liked Alexander.

[Richard Cranium]

Meh, it could've been better, but I still liked Alexander.

And you admit it? :bang

[Avitus1]

I thought Alexander could of been good if they focused more on his battles and not on his personal life.

[atxrocker]

alexander was gay. any heterosexual male who liked it should never admit as much in public.

[Leetonidas]

Rosario Dawson's tits are in it. :flipoff

[ZStomp]

Ditto.

[E20]

Yeah 300 was okay :lol

[Silver21_Black20]

I thought 300 kicked ass! 9/10

Great movie, but a story that was very loosely based on the battle of Thermopylae

[Mister Sinister]

300 had mild Halo Syndrome, meaning it didn't impress me as much as everyone said it would. I liked it, GOD yes, I liked it. Is it the best movie of all time? No.

[SpursWoman]

You guys should wait and be your own critics...you all appear to be way too caught up in other people's opinions. :lol

If you ignore the critics, you'll be pleasantly surprised more often than let down or disappointed. :tu

[Mister Sinister]

Sin City>300.

[TheThinkingMan]

Sin City>300.

I don't think so. 300 broke the August release record! FTW!!

[Mister Sinister]

I was speaking from my own opinion, not the box office's. I saw both, and preferred Sin City.

[TheThinkingMan]

You think so? I think it was pretty factual for a movie. The main parts of the battle were there.

[Mister Sinister]

But by the same token, Sin City was a pretty faithful adaptation of the graphic novel....more so than V For Vendetta, but that's another matter.

What are you trying to say?

[Mister Sinister]

What are you trying to say?
That Sin City followed its original graphic novel more closely than V For Vendetta. And before you ask, yes, I've read the original VfV. I *own* the original VfV. I'm not saying the movie sucked. I thought the changes they made (i.e. making Creedy more significant) were acceptable...with the possible exception of the removal of the Fate computer.

Well put but no movie can be true to the book since each director has their own interpretation. Just as each person who reads a book has their own interpretation based on what they are reading.

Oh, I know. I saw V before I read it...>,>; But not by much. I ran out to B&N after seeing it and bought the graphic novel. Each has something better to the other. Where the movie has Creedy, the graphic novel has the Fate computer, so on and so forth. I'm not complaining about the changes (again, with the possible exception of the removal of Fate. I named my laptop Fate after reading V.) by any means. V actually restored my liking for the Wachowski Brothers.

You've been responding to an acne infested 15 year old who posted on this site for 2 years as a "black guy", stole a black teammate's picture and posted it as him, is only a second string kicker, and said the movie 300 sucked.


Laaaame.


Leonidas' wife's perky breasts alone make the movie an 8.

[E20]

I didn't catch it during the movie, but where were the naked chicks? I mean Spartans lived nekkid.

[Switchman]

Jesus Christ. It is not based on the historical battle; although there were lots of similarities if you know the actual history. It is based on a graphic novel by Frank Miller.

I've read Herodotus, Thucydides, Paul Cartledge, etc long before this movie was in the spot light. The Spartans were as hardcore as they get. I thought the movie was badass and give it a 9/10.

I watch it on my Ipod whenever I have 2 hours to kill.

[TheSanityAnnex]

says the fag that still lives with his parents:lol, do you live on your own now?

there's a difference between 25 and 15

pffffffFFFfFF

did you close your eyes when the queen was riding leonidas like a horny college girl or what?

She had niiiiiiiice lil perky ones.

Plus they showed the oracle's boobs too IIRC.

[BeerIsGood!]

Both 300 and Sin City were two of the best movies of the last few years. Original and different take on the genre and I love that formula.

how is taking old frank miller graphic novels and making them into movies original or a different take?

[AnkleBreaker21]

yall haterz are full of shit. 300 was a bad motherfucka, bunch of crying ass vaginas

[CuckingFunt]

Sin City>300.Agreed.

Though both are good for a big ol' nerd-gasm.

[ALVAREZ6]

Was Sin City good?



I've always wanted to see it, I still don't know why I havent.

[atxrocker]

yes, sin city is great. you needa check it out.

Because unlike 99% of the comic book movie fuck ups they produce in Hollywood.

300 and Sin City were actually good.

[BeerIsGood!]

I've never seen any movies made in the fashion of both of those movies. The visual effects are original, and I enjoy the cartoonish style for a nice entertainment break. If you didn't like them, fine, but you have to admit the visuals were presented in an original format.

[BeerIsGood!]

Plus, I've never read any graphic novels so the stories are new to me.

[Burn531]

I watched it last night on Blu Ray. It's amazing to look at in HD. The fight scenes are awesome.

[lebomb]

The movie was good because of the special effects and sound.......that is the real reason I bought the DVD after I saw it at the theater (IMAX). The storyline was ok....but, this movie was more for the senses if you ask me.


This movie will give your home theater a workout for sure. That alone gives it a 9/10.

[TDMVPDPOY]

they only showed the views of the spartans but the other side...it was a decent movie

you want a shit movie? fantastic4-silver surfer = lame, they didnt concentrate on the silver surfer enough imo....

[JoeChalupa]

Did they concentrate enough on Jessica Alba?

i walked out of both 300 and troy...

I'm going to assume that the only reason you walked out of 300 is because your eyes were bleeding from it's sheer awesomeness. Because only a retard walks out of something they paid for.

No offense, btw.

You have never walked out of a movie? You never stopped watching a rental movie? You must be a movie fanatic then.


After all the hype, I expected 300 to actually have a detailed story, instead of just fighting and fighting. I wanted to see more strategy and war planning.

[TDMVPDPOY]

i walked out of both 300 and troy...

the only good scene in troy were the eric bana scenes, thats just pure acting

none of this bs guys tryin to tense and talk makin them look like douchebags....

I recommend CSPAN for you
