300

300 was an awesome movie - just don't take it *too* seriously. Persians are up in arms saying that 300s depiction of ancient Persia is wrong and negative. Fine - that's probably true, but who gives a shit. It's a movie.

Some Iranians are saying that it's anti-Iranian propaganda trying to fuel American hatred for Iran. This is stupid on so many levels. 1. The Iranian leader is doing plenty all on his own, 2. The story talks about ANCIENT persia - 480 BC, and 3. most imporantly - I'm willing to bet that the average American watching 300 has NO CLUE that Iranians are Persians!!!!! They probably don't even know that 300 takes place in the middle east. Now after all this propaganda they might find out :)

The Iranian bloggers are giving Americans too much credit.

There are bigger fish to fry in the world - Get Over It!
