You know, I pride myself on being somewhat of an intellectual. At the very least, one who is not completely beholden to the whims of popular culture. But -- sometimes -- I'm really in the mood for some Eye Candy. I'm gonna go see 300 when it hits the screens, because I think it's going to fulfill that need. And unlike the previous recent adventures with green screen filiming (namely, Sky Captain and Sin City), this movie actually looks like I might be entertained by it. Sometimes, this is a win (it's why I saw The Matrix), and sometimes it's not (Twister, Independence Day, anyone?) That is all. Carry on.
