MikeT2005 ::: Favorites My answer - no. I don't think it's worth the outrage. Anyone educated enough to make the connection between Persia and Iran will be smart enough to realise that a historically accurate movie wouldn't be as entertaining. And anyone dumb enough to have their beliefs influenced by Hollywood movies wouldn't make the connection, probably wouldn't realise it's based on a historical event, and probably wouldn't even know when or where the movie is based. 07-07-20 16:27:33 _____________________________________________________
mrbit10 ::: Favorites Actually at that time the Persian empire was huge and had many cultures including "Africans". Moreover, it was personal for the Persians as they had a prior defeat via the Greeks after the failed Egyptian revolution against Persia. 07-07-21 02:51:07 _____________________________________________________
mrbit10 ::: Favorites As far as the Greeks looking fit or athletic, read a bit about their culture, they were obsessed with it. Moreover, Spartans are probably considering all things equal overtime the best infantry solders known. 07-07-21 02:51:44 _____________________________________________________
mrbit10 ::: Favorites Actually not all Iranians are descendents of Persians just as not all Italians are descendents or Rome. The problem is that you have a lot of East Asian influence that later conquered Persia and most of the middle east that resulted into most of today's bloodlines and drastically changed the cultures as well. 07-07-21 02:52:22 _____________________________________________________
mrbit10 ::: Favorites Very true about the ruins and yes this is based on a graphic novel and meant to be very artistic and abstract as most of Frank Miller's work 07-07-21 02:53:02 _____________________________________________________

skierhawk ::: Favorites I really like the post. Here are my thoughts. We need to keep in mind that this movie is meant, first and foremost, as art. It is a war movie, but unlike Braveheart or Exodus, it doesn't attempt to teach any historical or moral lessons. It is too great a stretch to imagine masses of Americans forming totally different views of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad or the Iranian nuclear program based on this fanciful movie filled with yellow-brown skies, Scotsmen, and drag queens with digitally lowered voices. 07-07-29 04:45:35 _____________________________________________________
