THIS IS MARTHAAAAA
Thank god I wasn't on /tv/ when this film came out, did /tv/ even exist then?
>>80281052
yes
>>80281052
/tv/ was started in 06.
But /b/ memed the ever loving shit out of this movie. Some epic sparta threads were had by all.
>Persian
>sub-saharan skin color
is this a KANGZ movie?
>>80281140
The opposite
we was kangz of persia and shiet
This was a fucking epic meme
it's dead and gone but wow it was a glorious one
>>80281140
Considering Xerxes was a gold painted Yule Brenner, I'd say no. But persian princes did like their personal servants to be coal black so they could tell if they had been slipping the BBC to their wives and daughters.

Any caps?

Juicy europeans slaying endless waves of worthless persians ...

Nah the movie was fine, it's just hurt because its legacy was cheap looking shitty movies shot in front of a green screen, and the speed up/slow down ramping of action scenes for the next 10 years.
Sort of like how every movie had bullet time after the matrix.

Often times large empires liked using exotic individuals from faraway lands as emissaries, to show their influence and control spread far and wide.
>>80281052
Yeah there were a few good moments back then.

No I'm saying the movie is fine as a standalone thing, but that it had so many people biting on its style that it waters it down in hindsight.
Which is why I also referenced bullet time in the matrix. When it came out it literally blew people's minds in the theater. Five years later and it was put in every fucking action movie regardless of if it made any goddamned sense.

There was actually a lot of controversy around it when it got released, I think it got banned in Iran or something.
>i was studying for my fucking sats when this came out
where does the time go, boys?

Ah you think the wall is your ally. You merely adopted the wall. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the other side until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but bulding. The borders betray you because they belong to me.

>ywn march from home with the knowledge that you WILL die with your only purpose raised from birth being to kill as many enemies as you can before you expire so that the homeland has more time to prepare for total war
why live?

>In early youth, as we contemplate our coming life, we are like children in a theatre before the curtain is raised, sitting there in high spirits and eagerly waiting for the play to begin. It is a blessing that we do not know what is really going to happen. Could we foresee it, there are times when children might seem like innocent prisoners, condemned, not to death, but to life, and as yet all unconscious of what their sentence means. Nevertheless, every man desires to reach old age; in other words, a state of life of which it may be said: “It is bad to-day, and it will be worse to-morrow; and so on till the worst of all.”
