Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

Honestly just a really good movie, your loss.

Pretty movie. Not really a good movie.

Oh Spath...

FIGHT, SEX, FIGHT, HORNY SPIRIT GIRL, FIGHT, MORE SEX, WINTER IS COMING, DINE IN HELL, SEX, FIGHT, etc. etc. :D

I've seen the epicly old 300 spartins movie but never seen 300 XD

It was meh. I saw it once, and it just wasn't one of those movies that I could get excited about or watch more times. And that's odd for me, I usually like bloody, gory, fighter-type movies. But there just wasn't enough plot, it was fight scene after fight scene after fight scene, and by the end I was quite sick of it actually.

Plus the wife! The husband is off at battles bragging up how tough the Spartan women are, and then when the wife is assaulted in her own home she does bloody nothing. The woman is half useless until the very end. Crying out loud lady, do your man proud and at least TRY to beat the holy crap out of people who try to hurt you. /facepalm.

I knew I should have edited that post. -.-; Damn you Seha.

I own that version. I'd rather have a slightly more historically accurate crap version than something that's nothing but eye candy. >.> oh god Seha might twist this too...

It lives up to hype and expectation of being based on a graphic novel, by Frank Miller no less. Pretty much balls to the wall, high octane, non-stop violence similar to that of Sin City.
If it's your cup of tea and you have respect for the extremely exaggerated display of storytelling similar to to verbal passage of ancient times, then you'll likely enjoy it as that is likely how those of their time saw those events in their eyes, despite being historically inaccurate and as previously mentioned: highly exaggerated.

But really, were you expecting Oscars? It displays an all out war between Spartans and Pursians with some boobs and sex on the side, pretty much a guy flick and nothing else.

this pretty much.

differences in opinion :O If you dont appreciate the techniques used in the fight scenes or the hyperattention to detail I guess there isnt that much else to go off of, the plot is what it is but not even giving a movie you own a chance is just silly! not the best movie ever but worth watching imo :D

Fun movie with little substance. Good for beer and nacho nights.

i see what you did there~

300 is a kickass movie >.>

It's interesting, but I think a lot of what determines if a movie is good or not is overall expectations of what is to be delivered.
Logically one wouldn't see Transformers movies expecting a logical or compelling storyline with twists and turns in the plot to deliver a breath-taking climax. No, anyone worth their salt would see it for two things only: robots and explosions. In that respect, they certainly delivered, and therefore were decent movies for what I wanted/expected out of them.

However, there's the shades of grey where it's not fully understood what is to be delivered as some titles and previews or even movies themselves so vague and contrasted that you're not really sure what to expect or even evaluate once the film is done. But if a film can entertain you or at the very least examine and think about the details and complexities therein, it's a decent film.
A good example of that was probably my first viewing of Pulp Fiction. Every 10-20 minutes I was asking myself "Is this a crime thriller? A vague and complex romance? Some sort of vague evolution of character development?" I never knew what to expect or what to say even when it was over. Then again Quentin Tarantino jumps all over the freakin place.

. . .

Also... Little substance? Really? Apparently you were drinking too much beer.

What have I started c.c;

Fight fight gore gore same gore repeat slice slice some *** *** fight fight fight yell yell.

... Art disappointing me as well. My goodness.

you need to be flipped again?

What did I do? D:
Also blame Michael Bay, not the franchise.

Oh, I see. You watched it muted. Got it.

You guys know what was a good movie? I haven't seen it in ages but now I want to watch it again.

Robin Hood, that's what!

my 10 year old nephew got bored watching that, and asked if he could go play instead.


i've never wanted to strike a child, but...

Someone's pissy~

No, I felt it to be extremely lacking. I found that the actors were not right for the dialogue they had to perform and because of that it came out ridiculous.

I think what he meant is it's something you can enjoy casually without having to pay close attention to details.

Did you miss the tales of corruption in the government and how the council was content to leave their king for dead? The utter lack of urgency even in times of war? Or the significance of Leonidas's spear toss?

There was more to it than just gore, though there was a lot of that :P

I think I started it Mine lol sorry
