300: Awesome visuals, kinda gay
I failed to mention this when it happened but I saw the movie 300 at the Uptown Theater a while back. It was pretty good; I really enjoyed the whole presentation of the movie, if not necessarily the plot. Slow-motion, sound, visuals, all of it was great. Certainly it got me pumped up and ready to kick some ass.
Something that should be mentioned is that, how to put this, the gentlemen featured in the movie are both extremely fit and scantily clad. I mean its a little ridiculous to watch these guys running around in loin cloths with their rock hard abs. As a friend put it:
makes me think i watched a subtle gay propaganda film during 300
Really this parody, via Andrew Sullivan (who incidentally thinks the movie is a gay man's dream, is spot on.

I'll be updating my movie page with a 300 review.
