BY MICHAEL GOODPASTER
I thought 300 was a good movie. I saw it once in theatres on the IMAX screen so my one and only impression was a massive one. It wasn’t a movie I wanted to see on DVD or on cable afterwards. Outside of the stunning visuals and great cinematography it was a story that you see once and that’s all you need. There was never a reason to rewatch this. Now there’s a sequel? What more do we need to see from this world? Didn’t a lot of, if not all of those 300 Spartans die in the original? How can we call this 300? Or how about we go the 101 Dalmations route and call this “301: Spartans Don’t Die!” If it were called THAT, I’d be all for it. Then again, not really.
