Yeah, I knew it was based off the Frank Miller comic that predates the Bush Administration. Conspiracy theory? WTF? Where did you get the idea that I think there's a conspiracy theory? I used the wrong wording I guess. "pro-Bush propoganda" isn't the right word, but there ARE a lot of correllations to the administrations although not intentional in the movie. And if you listen to CNN every day in the car like me, then you'd end up associating things to the news a lot of times.
But putting the Bush Administration stuff aside, if you actually paid attention to the story plot, the whole 10% of the actual film that contained plot, you will realize that the story is about politics, with major emphasis on the fighting. And putting the CG fighting aside and still leaving the Bush admin out of this, the movie still sucked.
Being a movie buff turned me into a critic, and as you all know, you all don't agree with the opinions of critics.
Hillary? fuck that shit. I'm a registered Democrat but I'm pretty moderate on my views. A 2nd Bush was enough, we don't need a 2nd Clinton. If Colin Powell ever ran for office, I'd seriously vote for him. One of the few Reps that I'd vote for over most Dems. Well, if Hillary wins the Dem nomination, I'm so voting for Reps in 08. And I'm so hoping for Guiliani to win the Rep nomination.... seriously.
Yeah, I was hoping to see a showdown between Leonitus and Xerxes. I was hoping that was gonna be the climax of the fights and we actually would get to see Xerxes do something... but that never happened, and Xerxes just cries at the end...which was lame.
Yeah, it's definitely not my type of movie. I prefer something that pokes my brain a bit more. But you're completely right about it being a (lol) "testosterone soaked joygasm of violence and aggression" for guys.... but don't forget, the chicks dig the 300 chipendales walking around too.
