I got to see 300 over the weekend. I’ve been waiting along time for this and its the first movie since 2005 I’ve gone to see in the theaters. The movie was amazing and was well worth the wait. I can truly say you have never seen another movie like it. I bought the graphic novel of 300 a few months back but have held off reading it since the movie was right around the corner. Now thats its now, I think I may take the weekend and read it just to get a feel just how close of an adaptation it was. The next day I have off during the week, I’m going to go see it at an IMAX theater.

During a podcast this week, legendary comics creator Neal Adams announced that he and Frank Miller are both working together on a new Batman mini-series titled Batman: Odyssey. This is awesome news but I’m still alittle wary with Frank Miller. After Dark Knight Returns, Miller has been a little, umm, less than award winning with his Batman stories.

cough*dark knight strikes back*cough*all-star batman*cough.

Regardless I’ll be buying it when the 6 to 8 part series comes out. No word on when it should start but I would imagine sometimes in the next few months.

Apple now has the new trailer for Frank Miller’s 300 available in High Definition. This movie looks fucking amazing and its actually the first movie I’ve been excited to see in a long time. I’m definitely going to be checking this out opening night.

Head over to Apple to check out the trailer in 480p, 720, and 1080p.
