300

Not seen anyone talking about this here.

Warners have now released an official trailer (click)

I think this is looking incredible, one of the most mouthwatering trailers I've seen in a long time. Kickassery galore. Just hope the movie 'works' and isn't all style over substance.

I'd like it better if it was less fantastic...

Lord of The Rings meets Gladiator meets Troy meets Sin City meets The Matrix meets....?

let's hope it can live up to any of those movies. Trailer looks cool but also shows potential of being really bad/silly/corny.

the graphic novel is great and the trailer looks just like the graphic novel and my friends who saw the ComiCon footage said it looks amazing. high hopes!

I never read 300 because the comic is oversized. Anyone who's read my Tomato ranting knows how I feel about needlessly oversized comics and books.. I boycott them. If it doesn't fit on my shelf, I don't buy it.

But it does look ridiculously awesome and I'll see the movie no doubt. That trailer is too hot.

Looks enticing and delighting.

Eh, I wouldn't say it's a comic. Missing out on a few special graphic novels with that attitude I'm sure

I bought this from Amazon last week - it's very short, but it looks incredibly similar to the trailer. Can't fucking wait.

wowza. it's pretty much the graphic novel in motion. I'd say better done than Sin City, leaving it to your personal tastest between the two books to determine which movie you like more. People that hadn't read it did mention it was a bit like watching a World of Warcraft game but whatever.. so much hacking, so much slashing. it was awesome.

guys, I saw this film at a test-screening this summer (august i think it was) and it is, like KoS suggested Gladiator meets Sin City, in all the right ways. the action sequences often speed-up/slow-down to highlight key hits and slashes, the blood spurting effects look quite like the book, and the acting is pretty solid all around (save for the hunchback, who i found a little annoying). my only minor issue with it was you could tell it was shot on a minimal stage with mostly green screen around. then again, not all the effects were finished when i saw it. also, the music was all temp so i can't comment on that. i'll defeinitely being seeing it properly when it's released.
