Get The Kettle On

Having followed 300 since its announcement, and having also been a massive fan of Sin City, I must say this review has made me want to see it even more. I suggest you ingest it this moment.

I quote:

1) Awesome, shouty quotes.

300 is the most obscenely quotable movie I have seen in a long time. Truly, quotes such as “Eat your breakfast boys and eat hearty - FOR TONIGHT, WE DINE IN HELL!!!”, eyes shimmering with batshit insaneness or “THIS. IS. SPARTAAA!!” are this generation’s “Hasta La Vista, Baby” and “I ain’t got TIME to bleed”. Respectively. In any case, the macho-tastic quotes in 300 are made five billion times better by the fact that ALL OF THEM ARE SHOUTED. SPARTAN MEN LOVE TO SHOUT. THEY WERE RAISED NEVER TO SURRENDER AND TO SHOUT UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES. In fact, it made the rest of the movie without the shouting scenes quite uncomfortable to listen to. I was all up for seeing the boys relaxing round the campfire, screaming at the top of their voices “SPARTANS! WHO WANTS SOME TEA. I HAVE EARL GREY AND LAPSANG SOUCHONG. IN HELL!!!”.
