    300 Part II

    It was rumored before, but it looks like they're really trying to develop a sequel to the film, according to MTV, who spoke with 300 director Zack Snyder.



    “There’s something that happens in history between Leonidas dying at the Hot Gates and Platea,” Snyder said. “That’s a year that’s left out of the [original] movie. A lot happened.”

    Although it was dramatized terrifically, Snyder’s “300” told the story of the Battle of Thermopylae, which occurred in 480 BC. The film’s final moments mention that one year later, at Platea, 10,000 Spartan warriors helped defeat a huge Persian force; in a historical context, an equally important event occurred when the Athenian navy crushed the Persians in the battle of Salamis. According to Snyder, “300 Part II” will focus on the intense 12 months when these battles were taking place.

    “Frank is definitely working on an idea,” Snyder explained. “If Frank comes up with a great idea and draws something cool, there’s no reason why we wouldn’t make another movie.”

    So, in essence, the “300” follow-up wouldn’t be a prequel that could bring back Gerard Butler and the other stars; it also wouldn’t be a traditional sequel with mostly all-new stars. Instead, Snyder and Miller hope to make a film that occurs somewhere around 7/8 of the way through “300,” expanding on the moment. And although such an idea seems somewhat revolutionary, would you expect anything less from the guy who made such a defiantly loyal “Watchmen” movie?

    “If Frank does something great then yes,” Snyder said, insisting he’s behind Miller’s irreverent idea, and can’t wait to read the follow-up graphic novel. “It’s on him now.”
    I think it could work

    Well, the title of it brings up the biggest question. 302, 300: Part 2, 600, The Spartans, etc. And of course, there's no source material, so it would be an original story. I'm somewhat interested in this, but it's nothing I'll get crazy over.

    The first was a latently homoerotic, campy comedy to me. I don't think time will be kind to it. Cheesy movie lovers of 2023 are gonna love it.

    How can it be 300 part two when:

    1: This war happens a year after the original movie so the characters are all dead.

    2: Shouldn't they call it 10,000 instead of 300 if it involves that many Spartans?

    What a stupid Idea.

    With Frank Miller and Zach Snyder on board, I'm not really worried.
    300 part 2 though? Needs an original title...

    That's just what they're referring to it as, because it's a sequel, that's not the real title.

    Don't expect it to tango; it has a broken back.

    First movie was good, but it's pretty over-rated. I liked it, but I don't think it's as good as most people say it is.

    They should just leave it be.

    I was not very impressed with 300. I know I may get flames for that but I just really was expecting more from it. It was just pretty visuals and little story...yawn... I really like zach snyder (Watchmen, Dawn Of The Dead) but 300 didn't wow me. I could care less if they made another

    Some movies are stand alone films, sequals only degrade the original. 300 is one such film, in my eyes.

    Our immortality is found in the words and actions of our children.

    You see relatives at holidays, weddings, and funerals, but family is always with you.

    Do not steal, rape, or murder. Everything else is fair game.

    Facing failure is easier than running from regret.
