And what's better than a Frank Miller movie, eh?

We will stand and fight! A new age has begun. An age of freedom! And all will know that 300 Spartans gave their last breath to defend it!
This movie trailer actually sent shivers up my spine.

uh, have you seen eragon yet?
No, unfortunately. I took another look at the trailer and thought, no, this isn't something I'll be rushing to the theatres to see. Kinda reminds me of Dungeons and Dragons.
But the Frank Miller one looks promising.
Ha! Well Im a D&D fan. Havent played it since I was like 12 or 13, but I still wish I could take the time to sit down and play.
I used to play those role-playing books. The board game... I tried once and wasn't into it. My husband had a whole collection when he was little. I guess when you're young, you have a vivid imagination. These days kids are more in tuned with their Wii or PS3 to really play boardgames. All the shame.
Speaking of D&D, have you seen the 2000 and 2005 (sequel) movies? I've seen both. Not too bad if you don't have great expectations.

I agree with that all the way Lise. No more interest in actually playing teh games with their friends in person on a boardgame. Instead turning on the computer and Xbox. I hate that big time.
But, myself and SS sometimes with a few friends will sit down and have game nights. She just actually bought me a new boardgame that I appear to be hooked on... Settlers of Cattan. Anyone heard of it?
Nope. Never heard of that. RPG? Sounds like fun. What do you guys do? Get together and play dress up? (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/12.gif)

LOL Lise!!!!, nope the dressup and stuff is part of the bedroom olympics game.
A stragedy game. Mmm. The last strategy game I played was Dune and I gotta say, I have no patience. I'm more into hack and slash, ask no questions.
Looks like an interesting game, Russ. Wikipedia says it might even come out on XBox. Woot!
I just noticed that myself when I was goolging and read the wikipedia one. I will probably get it as well. Hey! I just realized that with children like you have, you can kindve mentally justify spending money on lots of new games... cause its for THEM and not YOU right? nod nod wink wink?
I already got the expansion version for it so 5-6 players can play and not the 2-maybe 4 that it suggests with the original.
And if you do buy the game.. buy it online. Its ten dollars cheaper than anywhere you can buy it here for.
Thanks for the tip, Russ but we won't be having too much time playing games. Sad. Can't wait till the kids are older so we can have board games every Friday night or something like that.
We've got tons of boardgames already. My personal favorite is Guestures. (spelling?) Really silly game where you have to act out a word. Good for laughs.
Anyone else going to catch this movie? I'm going to watch it this weekend and I can't wait!
Yes!
I'm very much looking forward to it but I hope it will be leaps and bounds better than the D&D movies, which sucked donkey balls IMO. Jeremy Irons...Oh my lord, you have disgraced your family and a shaolin temple :(
lol, so am I lise.. on of my buddies had sneak preview tickets.. Im waiting to hear what he thought of it.
We are probably gonna go friday.
LOL. tenkani. Nicely put. Jeremy Irons hasn't had much luck with movies lately. He's one of the better actor and I think he can still pull his weight around but man, the movies he's chosen sucks big time. Have you seen in the Eragorn? It's enough to put all my dragons to shame.
Lemme know what your buddy think of it, Russ. I'm so excited. Blood, gore, violence, beautiful looking men in loin cloths........... damn. I think I just wet myself. (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/12.gif)
lol lise.
I might see it depends on what I'm doing this weekend.
This is funny. Craig Ferguson's take on the movie 300. LOL.

Couldnt get in yesterday.. but I have friends RAVING about this movie. Ive been told this is TEH movie to watch in theatre, and its probably going to be one of the best movies around.
Im thinking Im going to make an attempt tonight. lol.
I can't wait to see 300. Huge fan of Gerard Butler. Anyone seen "Dear Frankie"? I absolutely LOVE that movie. Highly recommended.
My b/f watched it last night at the New West theatre. He enjoyed the movie. I'll have to rent it now or watch it alone. :)
You don't have to watch it alone, dearie. Did you get my PM? (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/23.gif)
A friend of mine seen it last night. He said it was good...not great, just good.
I won't judge it until I see it for myself.
Is there a Mrs. Devil who will be going to watch with you?

LOL! Not Mrs....but she can be devlish also!
sin city 2 is coming out late this year, early next year.
I heard that a sequel to Forest Gump is coming out...dunno when though.
Forest Gump sequel? Hm. That would be interesting. I've read a few exerpts from the sequel written by the author. I can remember reading about Forest meeting up with Tom Hanks and thanking him for playing his character. Funny bit.
Just watched 300. All I can say it.... [FONT size=5]WORTH EVERY DAMN MINUTE[/FONT]. I totally love this movie. Can't say enough.
Only complain. A wee bit too much blood and gore but hey, it's a Frank Miller so you gotta expect it.
Trying to think what they could do with a Forrest Gump remake, since the first movie was basically a parody or satire of the 60's and 70's.
300 brought in $70 million this weekend. The movie was shot entirely in Montreal on a green screen and had a budget of around $60 million
