Via Galleycat, I see that the movie trailer for "300," Zach Snyder's film adaptation of Frank Miller's graphic novel depicting the battle of Thermopylae is now online at the Apple site. That was a mouthful.
Wow, I think the body count in the trailer alone probably tops 300 with ease...
Fans of the history behind the Spartan's last stand at Thermopylae as well as those looking to dig a little deeper than the admittedly amazing special effects in the film are advised to keep an eye out for Paul Cartledge's book, THERMOPYLAE: The Battle That Changed the World, which is set for release in November.
