I thought that the battlecry was one of the worst aspects of the movie. It made them sound like marines, not spartans.

yeah I was roling my eyes to that bit myself. Would have thought they'd bang their spears on their shields in the traditional sword porn fashion.

I've been a fan of the graphic novel for a while, and saw the film in a theatre a few weeks back.
Didn't like the Queen subplot so much...what IDIOT would think the evil POLITICIAN would honor his word. I'd like a little more wisdom from my Spartan queens.
Other than that, I enjoyed the movie. It IS violence as art, but that's my cup o' tea anyway.
I went in looking for propoganda, having heard some complaints on the news. I really didn't see much deviation from the graphic novel, certainly no deviation from the sentiment of the original story.

Oddly enough, Persians (or what we today call Iranians) are Indo-European, and classified as Caucasian.

yeah right don't tell them that.
