the first movie sucked lol. it was entertaining to watch stoned or whatever but looking back the shit was terrible
also they did a shitty job of even showing what went down anyways. there was at least 5400 greek troops could have been as many as 11,200. 300 of which were spartans. the persians had anywhere from 70,000 to 300,000 tho. so it was still stupid lopsided.
i forget, but in the movie im pretty sure the greeks recovered leonidas' body. could be wrong. but word in reality xerxes had his head cut off, and his body crucified. they killed everyone. then went on to sack 3 cities, including athens, which was there goal.
in short the greeks fucking lost yo. sure years later they won some battles and pushed the persians out of greek lands
but the persians did exactly what they set out to do, all the spartans and others who stood at thermoplyae or whatever, all they did was delay the inevitable. they still burned athens. they still conquered shit.
im guessing this next movie is what happens after athens and all that is destroyed
i just didnt like how they go from the spartans defeated to a scene with thousands of greeks ready to murk out. them niggas tucked there balls between there legs and fled to salamis
