popsjumper 2 #28 March 12, 2007 What the hell you guys on about? With my heavy napping schedule, I have no time for movies. My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus. Falcon5232, SCS8170, SCSA353, POPS9398, DS239 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SeanSolo 0 #29 March 12, 2007 i have 300 million spartans in my pants and i think if hollywood made a movie about it, it would be historically correct and a box office smash. my sparty's dont have chizzled abs or anything, but they have really cool tails and they create life... thats pretty impressive right!?Cookie Firecrotch "Don't you know who I am!?

RoadRash 0 #30 March 13, 2007 Quote-All this was compounded when our friend that went to the theater with us, a big, barrel-chested Texan, blurted out when he started doing her doggie-style, "Yeah. Who's your Spartan...?" The row behind us started laughing... OMG!!!!!!!!! ROFLAO!!!!!!!! I didn't read this yesterday, and now that I am...well, I'm laughing so hard that I'm crying...... That's awesome!!!!!! ~R+R...Say my name b*tch...~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Fly the friendly skies...^_^...})ii({...^_~... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pfloyd 0 #32 March 26, 2007 Both my wife and I enjoyed the movie. I thought there would be even more battle scenes, but the ones they had were pretty epic. My drinking team has a skydiving problem Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJL 235 #33 March 26, 2007 This movie has grown on me over the last week and a half. But historically speaking there was so much more they could have done...admittedly because the other half of this story involved a huge naval battle and being a huge Age of Sail history dork I would have loved to have seen representations of these old galleys in action. Something a bit more modern than Ben Hur."I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shropshire 0 #34 March 26, 2007 The original (1962?) film was on over the weekend. It only just touched on the sea battle too. Not as violent (gory) as the new one either. I know that they are romanticised, comic book versions but I'd like some more historical truth sometimes. The actual store is heroic enough, how mucg gloss is required? (.)Y(.)

flytrybe 0 #35 March 26, 2007 QuoteSo I went and saw it last night... I thought it was pretty damn good... What do y'all think... loved it, great photography and finish, funny narration, overall a very entertaining couple of hours, gorgeous women w/perky nipples available and a bunch of chipendales for the ladies all mixed in a huge blood bath. I love the leg cramp in the kneeling scene. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites DJL 235 #36 March 26, 2007 Gloss? Well, they had to...modify...the fact that the final Rites of Passage was to kill a slave and escape undetected, not to slay an evil looking baby-killing Grendel-Wolf. Well, they could make an entire movie about Themistocles and Artemisium or Salamis."I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites jakee 1,490 #37 March 27, 2007 QuoteGloss?
