    Ok you're wrong! Persians might had elephants and rhynos but they had never brought them in Greece duh! That's what i'm talking 'bout! Oh and perhaps huge ogres and monsters with bladehands were in war eh? Anyway i like Frank miller and i've seen the amazing sin city. I'm just saying don't overdoit. Besides i'll watch the film.
    Have fun!

    This movie comes out on my birthday. March 9th. :3 I'm gonna see it then. And Aeon, this movie is completely non-fiction. It's about the Battle of Thermopylae, where 300 Greek Spartans fought off an army of over a million persians. Of course there will be fiction in the movie, but the story it's based on is completely true.

    Well, firstly, to solve that problem, if you want the historical truth read the Gates of Fire of Steven Pressfield, who has dedicated his life to Greek History, not a sick comic of someone who barely knows a thing or two of Greek history.:mad: Secondly, if this movie is historically wrong, it creates the wrong impressions about ancient Greece to everybody who watches it. Remember: Troy-->Greeks are bad, bad, bad, bad men and Trojans are good!:mad:
    Alexander-->Greeks are gays!!!:eek: For crying out loud!!!!! Even my teammates (Greeks, cause like Aeon Sora I am from Greece) believe it and won't even care to listen to the truth!:mad:
    Now, 300. The Persians didn't have any rhinos or elephants cause they simply would not be able to move in the narrow space they had to act in! Barely 100 men could fit in there! not elephants! They would have lost the battle if they had to depend on monsters from the first day! Anyways, I'm gonna watch this movie one way or another and I hope I won't get disappointed!

    It's pathetic how you people are getting so offended that there are rhinos in a MOVIE. What about Gladiator? Maximus was a completely fictional character, but most of the information in the movie was accurate. Were you offended that the opening battle didn't actually take place in Germania, or that the Coliseum wasn't real? It's not a big deal guys. It's a film. They never announced that it was going to 100% true. It's based off a true story. That's all.
