No, it's not, but I'm sure that they'd be happy to have all us GLADIATOR fans come park ourselves in the theater seats and lining up to buy the DVD as soon as it comes out.

No, not at all. 300 is based on Frank Millar's 300 graphic novel which itslef is based on the Battle of Thermopylae where an alliance of Greek city-states fought the invading Persian army at the pass of Thermopylae in central Greece. Vastly outnumbered, the Greeks held back the enemy in one of the most famous last stands of history. A small force led by King Leonidas of Sparta blocked the only road through which the massive army of Xerxes I could pass. After three days of battle a local resident named Ephialtes betrayed the Greeks, revealing a mountain path that led behind the Greek lines. Dismissing the rest of the army, King Leonidas stayed behind with 300 Spartans and 700 Thespian volunteers.

gladiator is a knockoff of the movie from the 60's Spartacus which starred Kirk Douglas. 300 is essentially a remake of this.
