Great reaction, Mary. This movie always gets me hyped.

I can’t watch 300 until I see 1 through 299 first.

The timing of this reaction is perfect, for today marks the 15th anniversary of the theatrical release of 300. I don't know why IMDB states the movie came out in 2006, because I will always vividly remember seeing this movie in the theater with my best friends on opening night in 2007. My 19-year-old self experienced pure cinematic exhilaration in the theater. The epic music, slow-motion visuals, the shrewd dialouges among the bad-ass characters. I developed an instant crush on Lena Headey as Queen Gorgo, she was the main reason I watched Game of Thrones when it first aired before it caught on with the rest of the world. Like WATCHMEN, Zach Snyder adapted 300 from an acclaimed graphic novel. It dramatized the actual battle of Thermopalye which author Frank Miller became fascinated with after he saw the film THE 300 SPARTANS as a kid. Two years prior to 300's release Frank Miller's SIN CITY graphic novels were adapted onto the big screen in the same unique visual filmmaking style that 300 utilized. Miller's directorial approach and distinct writing style made the film every bit as unforgettable as 300 and I recommend it highly for a future viewing. In 2014, there was a sequel to 300, titled RISE OF AN EMPIRE, which focuses on the remaining Spartans & Queen Gorgo's retaliation against Xerxes. Narrated again by David Wenham's character Dilios. While Zach Snyder didn't direct this time, he stayed on as producer to ensure it retained the same tone. The film has an amazing antagonist in the character of Artemsia and features some awe-striking naval battles against the Persian army.

I might suggest you liked this movie because it is always inspiring to root for an underdog who is fighting for right and freedom. Very much like what is happening now.

Zach Snyder is a director who watching his movies the first time you are like "Oh this is pretty cool!" With drastically declining enjoyment with each subsequent viewing.

Well frankly, I just enjoy the feeling that I am watching someone react to a certain movie that I enjoy and see if you react to certain scenes. And appreciate your perspective. I enjoy your comments, and reactions, geniuine. Saludos desde el norte de la República Mexicana Mary.

Ah, I just finished watching along to the full reaction - nice one Mary. I like Zack because he knows how to put together great action sequences in film. Most directors can't do that actually, they don't even try. Ahem also my impression is he's a professional and a stand up guy but he's in a business of back stabbers, unfortunately he's the good guy and the mob always attacks the one stand up guy.

Need some marvel content again please, almost caught up!

Every good Texas can't help but cheer when he says "Come and take them!", properly rephrased to "Come and take it!" at the "Battle" of Gonzales. Of course I put quotes around battle because it was little more than a shouting match, but always a fun story to sensationalize.

hey I watched it again and to Mary's question at the end - why do we like this movie so much? It is because it lacks today's cynicism. What we see portrayed is straightforward action and enthusiasm for one's profession (Ahoo!) And Leonidas inspires us to find something worth doing, and then to do it wholeheartedly without reserve. It's refreshing.
