Canada--an apartment over a really great party.

More like an unheated attic. The one you keep your crazy aunt, who insists on calling herself Steve Burgess, in.

What is to blink about? This is actually history.
A big chunk of Canadians and Americans don't do any actual history.

"300 is an adolescent wet dream to its very core, a homoerotic paean to half-naked Greeks and their bloody, thrusting swords. And to make all the Chippendales-style posing more palatable for the young straight male target audience, there's a little bit of rough doggie-style hetero sex too."
"...be a masturbatory experience for the Ann Coulter crowd."
"But Dick Cheney will cream himself."
Who talks like this? The writer is obviously projecting his own perversions.
To: LdSentinal
Ok, when he calls it "homo-erotic", that means, like, gay, only not in the PC good sense of the word gay, right?
I should have known the lefties had ways of getting around their own PC rules.
So actually he's deriding the movies by calling it gay, only he's not calling it gay. Bigoted son of a mother who really should be embarrassed for squirting this [characterization deleted] into the world.

I think Steve Burgess secretly liked the movie, but he was paid to write a hit-piece on it so he's got to sound negative.Burgess is obsessed with masturbation and homosexuality. It appears the movie has precipitated an episode of classic homosexual panic during pre-genital stage psycho-sexual development.
To: LdSentinal
Interesting.
I've heard from two lefty co-workers so far that LOVED this movie!
(I guess they didn't get the memo)

This article reveals much more about its author, Steve Burgess (and the secret fears and cravings that inhabit the dark recesses of his mind) than it does about the movie.
For example, it appears that Burgess may be uncomfortable about his own sexuality and perhaps is afraid of his own homosexual tendencies.
Clearly this article (written by an 'unknown') is a cry for attention from his idol Ann Coulter.
Most likely, Steve Burgess was not permitted to read comic books when he was a kid, which might explain why he doesn't "get it".
He manages to work both the Nazis and George Bush into a "review" of a film that is about neither, which is a common symptom of full-fledged Bush Derangement Syndrome.
Burgess identifies strongly with potters, sculptors, and poets, and in true Walter Mitty fashion, believes that he is one of those "brave men" who would go so far as to take up arms to defend his country (even though, yuck, guns are icky and he's scared of them), but at the same time believes that members of the US National Guard who do exactly that are warmongers and baby killers. Etc.

From their point of view it's those illiterate Americans who haven't been able to spell since Noah Webster screwed up American dictionaries. So deal.

"Someday, somebody is going to make one of these comic book movies that isn't quite so depressingly comic book."
I have actually read much of the comic (unlike the reviewer, I suspect) and found it to be an enjoyable story. At no point does the book represent itself as anything other than a fictional account of a historical event. Of course, leftie movie reviewers are already reality-challenged and it is no surprise that they don't get it.

This guy has some real issues. Pets and small children should be kept away from him.

"Regardless, 300 will likely be a masturbatory experience for the Ann Coulter crowd." I was hearing a lot of masochistic orgasmic moans of delight from the Bill Maher types in attendance.

"And to make all the Chippendales-style posing more palatable for the young straight male target audience, there's a little bit of rough doggie-style hetero sex too." I think there was a pleasant message delivered here. The leader of the Senate (an obvious Demicrat-ick liberal - ha ha) promised the wife of Leonidas he would support her if she had sex with him. She complied, putting the needs of her husband and her nation above her own. Of course, the liberal Senate leader lied, and betrayed her, blaming her for the incident. She then took a sword and ran him through with it. THAT, was a very GOOD message!

Half my ancestry is Spartan. Can I sue Mr Burgess for a hate crime?
To: Popman
One of the points was that a General and his brave men were far away fighting for their liberties. The Senate called it "his war" and dithered about sending him aid. Now which members of the America's Senate does that bring to mind? (Yesterday on Hannity & Colmes, in talking about the war Colmes phrased it as "George Bush and his henchmen."
