    1. Ryan, get over your hatred of 300 ;)


    2. 300 was one of the worst suckfests I saw all year.


    3. That is okay if you just think it was bad. But Ryan only hates it cause it isn’t historically accurate, which is a dumb reason to hate it, since it wasn’t trying to be. :P

      Director even said it was at its core, a fantasy film! :o


    4. Well yea, I would think if it was to be based on history, it would be based on historical texts, not Frank Miller’s comic book.

      But it still sucked. If I could, I would have slowed down the word “sucked” to slow-motion as I typed, it, then sped up a lot during the typing of the “ed” at the end of “sucked”. But there is no emoticon for how I feel about this.


    5. I think kirby is always an appropriate emoticon.

      Now damn it, I want a picture of me by my name, how must I do this?
