300 [reasons why I hate this movie]
Published by J. M. Adkison under on 2:48 PM
I am not really going to write 300 reasons why I hate the movie 300-I don't have the time and really, I'll just make my-self more mad talking about it. Well, here I am, a young man of nineteen, who likes action movies and sweet special effects just as much as the next guy, but I'm going to say it: 300 is an epic piece of trash!!! It is nothing but a glamorized gore porn. Wow, it feels so good to say that and mom, I'm really sorry that I ever watched it. I was curious to see what all of the hype was about and I kept having guy-friends tell me that I'm not a man until I see this movie-well that's a load of bull.
Though the true battle of 300 was a noble effort to keep the Persians from entering Europe-the movie, in my opinion, was not so noble. The Spartans of this film were not my most favorite group of film characters: lets just say if I had a choice of being a Spartan or being a flying monkey from the Wizard of Oz-flying monkey hands down! When that movie came out-all my guy-friends wanted to be was a Spartan. Well, obviously they didn't notice the whole-eugenics-we-kill-the-weak-and-keep-the-strong mentality and that Spartans really did not run around in flowing red capes, just a pretty helmet and crimson loin-clothes that remind me of my red-ranger undies that I wore when I was five-but wore armor just as much as the next guy.
And another thing...The whole motivation behind the Spartans fighting the Persians was to preserve freedom and liberty for their fellow man. But I believe Sparta was just as enslaving as Persia (but not to the scale of Persians)-somebody check me on this-of course they did try to enslave Troy and that was just one big ugly mess.
Well, I am going to really MAN up and say that 300 is really nothing but something to satisfy our animal and crude desires that have no business being satisfied.
Thanks for listening to this latest thought-rant-I just had to speak up about this-it's been eating at me for the last few weeks.
P.S. That whole scene with the hunchback in Xerxes' tent-worst movie scene EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
