Well, them 300 Spartans have taught me something.

I always thought to speak laconically meant - to speak like Jimmy Stewart, you know, all drawly and slow. Seems not! I've been using the word wrongly for years.

Not just useful for their Abs then. :)

And does Gerald Butler bellow all through the film? *Dies of the submissive squeee.*

Sadly I have to go and see "I Want Candy" before I get to max out on testosterone. blech.

i love how the spartans all had different accents.

i didn't like, however, how all the persians and their allies were dark skinned.

I loved all the creaking leather in 300:) It is beautiful eye candy of a movie..made to look like a moving comic book and I adored it.

It's only when he's being funny that the accent crept in.

I just saw 300 last night in IMAX - totally hot. I want to go see it again now that I won't be distracted by the silly plot and can focus on manbits.

I wish we had an IMAX. They built one in Bournemouth when I lived there and for about 2 years it didn't open due to some legal wrangle, so I never got to go.

Wah!

mmmmm Manbits! Can't wait!

The accent thing is always difficult. Better different ones, I think than do what Stone did and have all the Greeks speak with Irish accents so Farrell didn't stand out!

*G*

I would be the confused Spartan Mother: "Come back without your codpiece... no, that's not right...."

*G*

you are so very welcome!

funny/disturbing anecdote: i went to see 300--or 'zoo' as my friends, émile and andrea thought it was called--with my friend, naomi. she was so excited by all the manly men in the movie that i had to tell her not to wet herself (let's ignore what was happening to me :P ). after the movie, as we were chatting about our favourite parts, she told me about that scene where one of the men gets decapitated, and i quote: 'damn! those guys are so hot! you know i'd do that headless guy. his body was still hot. you just have to cover his neck!'
