Spartans! Ready your breakfast and eat hearty...For tonight, we dine in hell!

Ahh, 300! I've been on a movie kick the last few days and this precious gem was on last night! I absolutely adore this time period in history...and the mouth watering bodies of the actors... simply icing on the cake! Gerard Butler as King Leonidas always keeps me on the edge of my seat with excitement! I found myself amazed by the fearlessness the Spartans displayed and could never imagine being so passionate about my country, a cause, anything...that I'd be ready to face certain death! They were raised to believe death on the battflefield was the greatest glory they could achieve in life...But I digress, back to their bodies! This entire movie makes my mouth water. Did these guys really look like this back in the day? God...whatever they were doing needs to be bottled up and sent out to the brothers in Chicago because I don't see anything like this nowadays.

One of my favorite scenes is when the Persian messenger comes to King Leonidas and asks for an offering of earth and water for Xerxes. Leonidas is so gangster in this scene...I love it!
