I hope so! I just loved 300!! I used to say GLADIATOR was my favorite film but now I love 300 more! What an awesome movie! Yes, better than TROY, better than BRAVEHEART, better than any other "action" or "historical" film that I've seen, I can honestly say that I was fascinated every minute! The script, the costumes and sets, the music, everything was just PERFECT!!!
I was most impressed by the action scenes, they were choreographed very nicely and looked pretty realistic. (OK, OK, the arterial spurt was wrong, there wasn't enough gushing blood and no sword, no matter how sharp, stays sharp long enough for you to hack that many people to death but let's overlook little details like that, OK?)
I own swords and I know it's not easy to swing those babies for long, you really have to be in good shape and these guys really looked it! Like real warriors not the weekend warrior type. I mean, you could believe that they'd been training as warriors since they were kids. I know people say it's all digitally enhanced but I don't care. It looked pretty real when it needed to look real.
OK, there was some gratuitous nudity (young "oracle" in flimsy gown, the Queen of Sparta flashing flesh, the king and queen in the bedchamber) to keep the young, testosterone laden men interested until the carnage but I guess that's only fair as we women were treated to the sight of all these buff guys in skimpy war outfits.
The bad guys were suitably bad, LOL! It cracks me up to see the people posting here at YA that are saying it's an anti-Iranian film or whatever. It's fiction for Pete's sake and it's a good story!! It was told from the viewpoint of a survivor, someone who came back to Sparta and told the story. Of course there will be embellishments!
Ah, but it wasn't just a good story, it was just a spectacular feast for the eyes in many respects and was very inspiring. It was a story about duty and loyalty, courage and honor. Who doesn't like that?
No question, 300 is the best movie of 2007! So far, I've seen several: WILD HOGS, 23, GHOST RIDER, CATCH & RELEASE, MUSIC & LYRICS, DEAD SILENCE, PREMONITION.... um, some other horror flick whose name I can't even remember now... in fact, several movies that I can't name now because they were so mundane but 300 is awesome! I'll buy it on DVD as soon as it comes out.

I truly believe they have a shot at:
editing
costumes
cinematography
visual effects
Nothing for acting. No offense to the actors -- who were fine -- but it's not that kind of a movie. If 'the academy' could look past their pretentious selves, it really should get consideration for adapted screen play as it was a very accurate recreation of the graphic novel. However, that oscar is usually reserved for pretentious piece of carp that didn't get nominated for anything else.

It is a great movie and if they don't walk away with some Oscars I will be very disappointed.

Nice special effects, but Oscar-worthy? I don't think so.
