I really don't know what to say! I don't know what's wrong with these people. First we had that annoying and VERY VERY offensive movie, Borat and now 300! Now about the Borat movie, I'm not from Kazakhstan but really, do you want to make fun of a WHOLE nation and religious believes just to make money? Same thing with 300 now!
If you want to make a movie about the past, it should at least has some truth! You can't just pick two nations and crush one of them just because you want to make money! NONE of the things that was in that movie was even near the truth!
We know that we can't do ANYTHING but we can at least show that we are not happy about it! The text on top of this site and the black stripe will remain until the 300 movie is out of all theaters!
ما ايرانی ها بر اين باور هستيم که در فيلم ۳۰۰ مورد تحقير قرار گرفته ايم و اين فيلم اصلا به حقيقت نزديک نيست...
Now lets have some fun with "The Anti-300 Online Game"!
Great idea by Jonathan Prasad. Game by Amin Babaeipanah.
Update [Feb, 11, 2007]:
I've been reading in multiple weblogs and websites that the writers are saying why Persians don't like the 300 movie. "who cares? It is just a movie."
Well let me see. They have shown us like monsters and savages! But the real truth is The Persian Empire in 480 B.C was the most magnificent and civilized empire. And I am not saying this. Even Persian historians are not saying this. The English and German and other historians have agreed to this "fact"! Now do you like to see a movie that shows your people like monsters and savages and actually see them being killed? You can't understand this. You have to be in our situation to understand it! It's not about "Oh-well it's just a movie". It really hurts to see something like this. Whether "it's just a movie" or not!
