You are quite possibly THE dumbest member I've ever encountered on these forums. I mean, don't take it too personally, but jesus.... you really need help.
And I'm not basing this off of just this post. I've read a ton of them and they ALL illustrate your stupidity.
You're and annoyance on these boards, in my opinion.
AND 300 IS NOT ****IN FANTASY.
300 isn't a fantasy movie, but it's clearly only loosely based on the Battle of Thermopylae. I just wished they would have based the movie more on fact, while retaining the awsome style instead of making a "hero movie" where The Spartans are noble and admirable and the Persians are portrayed as weird, blood thirsty psychopaths with odd creatures. That being said, the movie was still good.

you're completely missing the point.
the film is told by a narrator and is in past tense.
the narrator is a spartan soldier who's duty it is to bolster the spartan army on the eve of the battle of plataea with tales from thermopylae.
thats why the persians are portrayed as monsters...because the spartans saw them as invading monsters
it's called a visual metaphor...not exactly difficult to "get" either
