300 sucked

i thought it was a real deep plot, with a lot of foreshadowing, and symbology. my only complaint was too much clothing, and when they had shields you could hardly make out their chiseled bodies. (E-Sarcasm)

As tough as they might be, and epic as the CGI fights were, a little too homoerotic for my taste. I know it wasn't meant to be a thinking movie, but it couldn't of hurt. But his wife was pretty hot. Not gonna lie.
 
you guys are all expecting 300 to be real or historically accurate, which is wasnt intended to be at all. Thats like watching Sin City and going "THATS SO UNREAL, THIS MOVIE SUCKS"

no shit its unreal. Sometimes you have to use CGI effects to make a movie good. As Robert Rodreguiz said "if digital helps tell a better story, why not use it?"

300 is one of those movies where you just have to turn your brain off and enjoy the mindless entertainment. Of course its no Fight Club or Requiem for a Dream, which were deeply artistic. 300 was a slasher movie and no more.
 
I don't think anyone is arguing that the fight scenes weren't awesome, but that's all the movie has going for it.
 
there was not as much CGI in it as people think, the movie was shot amazingly, the coulours and all, it is a great movie, very well done and thought through. in my opion i think it was great, thats my opion, other people have theres
 
the whole thing was filmed in front of a green screen.i would say that counts as quite a bit of cgi. sick cgi at that
 
I just saw it, and i found it to be one of the sickest movies i've seen for awhile. I'm not saying it was good writing, or good plot or whatever, it was just a straight action movie. Thats how action films should be, no stupid messages, no complex plot that strays away from action, just action. Sure, movies like Italian job, oceans 11 and 12 (and soon 13 to come), and other complex movies are sweet, but 300 was just amazing fight scenes and epic battles. Not to mention the cinemtograph is a new step in film making, it was fucking awesome to watch. If you want a movie with a good plot/complex story, watch something else.
 
my thoughts exactly. i looooved the surrealism in sin city. that movie is probably one of my favorite movies ever. soo epic and i loved the black and white
 
sisi well not the whole thing. but from what i read there was only one scene that didnt use it and it was like a scene with horses
 
whole movie was fucking gnarly but the ending kinda sucked. and i saw it with a girl i just met so the whole sex scene thing was a little awkward. did anyone else find the slow motion boob jiggle in that as hilarious as i did

based on that map of the persian empire...im goign to say theres a decent chance there were black ppl....the only thing that makes me laf is the fact that you brought up black ppl and not the immortals with their screwed up faces and vampire teeth
 
Hey I think there were black people black then too............. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

300 was a great movie. The plot sucked donkey cock and half the dialouge was pathetically corny but the fight scenes were epic. Dont go expecting a good story.
 
ya i was going to bring up the point of the black messengers was most likely apart of a conquered kingdom of the persian empire and who really cares if everything was historically correct any movie would be boring.
 
Why the hell not? Look what happened to the world when the Greeks were able to resist Persian consolidation. The world was different, and not just militarily... Why not have a good plot? It would have made the movie much better.

Just because the battle scenes were good doesn't mean that it is a reasonable excuse for the rest of the movie to be neglected seriously at times.
 
I never said the movie shouldnt have had a good plot. that would have made it a much better movie. I was just saying that it didnt have one so caveat emptor
 
none of you can pretend you didn't enjoy watching a hunchback squatting over two deformed bitches making out on the ground... and a dude with lobster hands!!
 
sounds like something a pretentious prick would think of. saying someone isn;t intelligent because they enjoy a movie that has great action but a plot that isnt satisfactory? get a life and stop trying to sound smart on a ski site filled with teenagers.
 
action and cgi was good, and thats it.. there was less fucking plot than snakes on a plane
 
Thanks for your insight! it really helps to post shit like that.

Anyways, I'm trying to understand how people dislike the usage of CGI? Do you realize how boring the movie could have been? It would be like fucking lord of the rings all over again. People seem to enjoy one movie, and hate the next because it isnt the same as the last.
 
nah it sucked. coudl have been so much more epic. the ending sucked balls. waaaaaaaaay homoerotic, and the evil dude sucked. why did that executioner exist? that terrible hunchback?
