Leonidas says "There's no reason we can't be civil" as a downed Persian is being stabbed in the foreground.

Oh Zack

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

Xerxes is right in front of you..... stab him

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

Is there any reason why Xerxes is Shaq-sized.

Okay, abrupt ending to that scene. I guess Leonidas just walked away from Xerxes

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

Who-bris

No, it's pronounced hue-bris

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

Someone just threw a dropkick, lirl

Waiting for Leonidas to tune up the band and throw a superkick

These streamer's cats just meowing during a starcraft stream lol

Think we just saw the first Spartan die.

Fancy that, if you gang up on the people that you massively outnumber, you can defeat them.

Now get back in a straight line and wait your turn

Big giant dude swings his big giant sword at someone and he just blocks it with no recoil at all?

That was silly

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

15 seconds later, we see big giant dude hitting someone's shield and he's getting knocked back by the force.

Consistency

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

Big giant dude gets stabbed in the upper arm, completely no sells it.

Being a giant doesn't make you immune to damage. I would assume getting stabbed through the arm would do quite a lot of damage to your bicep and tricep

Are you not vaccinated

What percent of 300 is in slow motion?

Back in 2014, CinemaSins did a breakdown of Synder's 300, finding that about 30 minutes of slow-motion footage accounted for the movie's runtime - about 25% of the film.

Father-son moment.

Clearly the son is about to die.

Fine, there was "fog" and you couldn't see the horse. You would totally hear it though

 

[LarryFisherman]

Are you not vaccinated

yes, i'm vaxxed

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

Mutant guy is back with his Are You Afraid of the Dark quality prosthetics

How did Xerxes find him?

He looks like the Toxic Avenger, lirl

Think it was a 212 I threw. Me and my buddy got out of HS a period early but his brothers didn’t and we had to drive them home…. Bowling alley across the street had free shoes and games for like a bucks so we went there almost daily.


He still hasn’t cracked 200 and it drives him nuts to this day. It comes up often in our trash talking even 15+ years later.

Between the years where I had a licence but not allowed in the bars (mostly) I bowled quite a bit. Actually a double date was good especially if it was a first date for one of the couples. Pretty safe, and it was a good excuse to put a hand on her shoulder while you walked her through the bowling motion.

McNutty hitting on Cersei

Oh, a slap

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

If I ever said this was a good movie, I take it back

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

7.6/10 on IMDb

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

3.3/5 on Letterboxd

That's way more reasonable

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

Reactions to Cersei's speech similar to my reaction watching this movie

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

Why is McNutty evil? I guess he wants to surrender.

Nm, he dead now, drops a bunch of coins like he's Sonic
