Interesting, but I saw a bit from the graphic novel in which a Greek soldier, upon the eve of battle, says "Bring it on." Not normally a stickler for detail, but Greeks saying "Bring it on"??

Still, looks fun

.... you can't complain about a Greek saying "Bring it on".... first, they, I assure you, DIDN'T speak english. at all. Gawd, the language wasn't even born yet.

SO... if we're watching greeks speak english, for story's sake, it's fine to assume they might have had a challenging sort of saying ala-"bring it, bitch".... but, again for story's sake, instead of "translating" to something like "Let them come hither, and bring forth their arses so that I may kick them", they update it to "Bring it on!".


I'm just saying, if you're gonna be a whiny girl about greeks saying "bring it on" and how that ruins things for you, go all the way, say that the mvie should be like the passion of the christ and be entirely in the original ancient greek. bitch.

Jesus get your self out of your arse.

They could have said something less "americanised" like "Today I end you." Obviously it's in English fuckwit, it was written by Frank Miller, he of Dark Knight/ Daredevil/ Ronin/ Sin City fame.

I was just saying the phrase felt out of place, sorry for having a fucking opinion on the matter. I forgot you were always right, Kahn.

Sheesh!

ok, ok, I apologize... I re-read my post and I did soud like a snappy bastard, that was not my intent, I was just commenting something I don't really care about and using that to insult Frank the Wank, cause he's so insultable.... but I love the dude.


Seriously, sorry.

Saw a new trailer. Looks utterly ludicrous but all the better for it!
