Because the whole damn point of a movie about the 300 Spartans is that there is no sequel, right?

So let's make a sequel!

SPARTAAAAAAAAAHHH

Edit: the above link is to a review of the movie. Which would be hilarious, except some people actually think shit like this is art. Wow.

As I understand it (though I've not seen it), this film is about Athens rather than Sparta... and takes the ever-loving piss out of the pseudo-fascist militarism of the first film. I falls short of the brilliant satire that was Starship Troopers, but a similar idea.

I might just have to see this then.

So is Gerard (I've acted in 300 movies this month) Butler in it?

I didn't see the first movie, but I assume all 300 Spartans die, right. But I got to believe there are at least 600 Spartans, so this one must be about the other 300, right?

Is this the one where Cruella De Vil wants to make a coat out of the Spartans, or was that another movie?

Reading the history of those times is almost comical. Empire A defeated Empire B in the Battle of X, then were routed by the combined forces of C & D in the War of Whatever, only to fall later when Empire B - now resurrected - aligned with the evil Empire E. Then the Romans came and killed everyone.

Don't forget the Punic Wars. Carthage vs Rome! Get yer tickets now! The odds makers are giving Carthage the edge at sea. Poor bastards didn't know that the Romans would figure out a way to fight a land war at sea.

Corvus anyone?
