GIP

[sophistry]

In other words, kessie and I went to see 300 tonight.

I have a lot of thoughts on the backlash and controversy over this movie, on history vs. fantasy, playing on prejudices, spectacle vs. taking anything in this movie at all seriously, etc, etc, but a) I am tired, and b) Jon Stewart more or less summed it up when he said, "IT'S A MOVIE."

Also c) I am still reeling from the visualsgasm. Wow. Guh. If I ever have to go into battle against a million gay terrorist deviants, with only 1800 rock-hard abs at my back, that's how I want it to look.

In conclusion, lol gold codpiece.

I dunno, I haven't seen it yet, but somehow I don't quite know how I'll be able to reconcile the fact that Leonidas was the Phantom of the Opera first.

Still loved it, and I still want to see it again at some point.

It was so pretty and wonderful and gay--on both sides!

Also, is it just me or is the Oracle prediction/dance thing gorgeous?

I so love the GIP Icon. Seriously.

I haven't seen it yet, but I'm broke, so I doubt I'll get to see it for a while.

Makes face.

I'm pretty sure that the Persians are actually the Americans....

Also, LOL, leather undies. I belive they actually fought naked. Hows that for intimidating.

Oddly enough, I just saw it too. And now I want a shirt or something.
