What I am loving is the absolutely RETARDED notion that I've been reading about from Iran:

"That movie is being funded by the U.S. government to help prepare the populace for war with Iran."

Huh?

Come on folks, you think Bushie would help fund a movie that showed that ancient Greek sado-masachist fighters that was homosexual being like, you know, heroic?

Besides, if anyone actually reads Frank Miller's comics, the guy writes his stories in a very masculine-fantasy style of storytelling....which is cool, and he's great at it.

He wrote his 300 comic as a man-movie story of war and action.

Besides, this is the same Miller that defecated on Reagan in DARK KNIGHT RETURNS, and the entire Bush circus in the less-than-stellar sequel DK2.
