Re: Flash. Yes, but it didn't stop the whole Asian stereotype from being present, or the white American saves the day. The only black people in that film are slave looking silent guys. Whoa.
The modern political hoo-ha in 300 is way more on the surface (freedom isn't free, etc), but it's such total bombast, especially in relation to the twisting of ancient history and a 9 ft tall drag queen of a Xerxes.
I'd love for you to see it.... I think you'll either be horrified by it, for the same reasons everyone else I know, or you'll love it cuz it's eye candy and ree-dick-u-luss.
