Obligatory my middle name is Leonidas post from me.
Obligatory this will be good but they should have made GATES OF FIRE by Steven Pressfield into a movie instead post from me.
Obligatory they should follow up the Persian Wars with the Pelloponnesian War post from me.
Seriously, an entire epic series of informative and incredibly bad ass movies. We don't have to have faggy elves and stoner midgets to tell some awesome stories. Stupid Hollywood.
There are mythical creatures in this flick. Also, Spartans practiced the complete opposite of freedom. They enslaved themselves as soldiers for the ruling class, gave kids no choice as to what they'll do in life or how they'll be treated (it wasn't rare for their parents to have sexual relations with them, among other things)... they were one of the most wicked (the bad kind) society to walk the earth. They were successful because they were so mindless to their tribe.

But it's going to kick. ass.
You post as though we didn't already know this.
Knob was saying "you can't spoiler history" in the sense that the Spartans lost. I mean, I know you just wanted to look smart, so it's cool, but you failed.

Anyone in the Seattle area want to go next week? I just remembered the awesomeness that was watching Snakes on a Mother Fucking Plane with a theater full of PAXers.
Screen: "SNAKES"
PAXer: "BUT WHERE ARE THEY"
Screen: "...on a plane"
PAXer: "OH"
When i see this movie, it is going to be hard for me not to pee on myself from excitement. I think I might just go by some depends so I don't have to worry.

I think that Trillian and I are going to see 300 at the IMAX while she's here.
Maybe we can get a group together.
Call it something ironic, like SpartaPAX.
Where's here?
And yeah, Snakes on a Plane convinced me that watching movies with groups is awesome. Just make sure the group is also awesome. In the case of PAX (or most PA ppl), this isn't a problem.
I'd say it's within easy driving distance of Seattle, but A) you already know where it's at, and there's no such thing as "easy driving," where Bellevue is concerned.
EDIT: Oh shits. Guess it's not showing there. Cinerama, then?

Well it does kind of make sense. I mean most of the movies in the last few years that have tried to be all epic and shit have sucked.
With blackjack!
And hookers!
In fact, forget the movie!

So fucking terrible.
But it was on youtube, so there's a chance that it isn't official.

Probably because the 1st SS was killing them faster than they could land in country.

Holy shit it's awesome.
Especially Snakes on a Plane, where we were pretty much the only group there, and 2/3 of us were totally shit-faced.
