300 -- meh...if you remove everything factually spartan from sparta except fighting, you have this movie.

If between EU countries or switzerland is very easy, most of them actually don't exist anymore (the land ones). Swiss sometimes like to complicate things and they check more. There are physical borders in Switzerland.

As to the fighting in 300... that's actually one of the aspects I'm eager to see. In any case that IS what the movie wants to show....

Why has no one yet said this:

SPARTAAAAAAA!!!!

Movie rocked. I dont care if not accurate as based on comic book not history per se. Want to see it in IMAX now.

Blah. Had a former friend who said the main heroine in Underword was "Made to look a little too bad ass" when she was a vampire soldier with hundreds of years of practice and training, and then he turns around and loves the guy in Equilibrium and the guys in Sparta...blah.

I only hope it is fairly accurate and shows what the battle of Thermopylae was really like.

It's nice when anything is portrayed accurately, is it not? Unfortunately, things become very diluted and obscure over time as, for instance, the holocaust! Important events are eventually swept under the carpet and forgotten.
