Trailer Tuesday: 300



If you wondering why I seem to be posting the same trailer again for Frank Miller's 300, directed by Zack Synder and starring Gerard Butler, well, I'm not. This is THEE official studio release trailer for the film, which is a macho, stylised retelling of the ancient Battle of Thermopylae in which 300 Spartans fought to the death against a massive million-strong Persian army.

I can't wait for 300 (due for release in March 2007). Looking at this trailer... the visual beauty, the dance-like co-ordination of the battle scenes and WAR RHINOS!!! Screw Lord of the Rings' Oliphants.

The 300 trailer that I posted a little while ago was the unrated footage shown at this year's San Diego Comic Con. And it's still floating around the Net... here's a link from Ctrl+Alt+Delete.

Anyway, you can also stream the 300 trailer above in glorious Quicktime off the Apple site here. Or, you can download it in high quality to enjoy over and over and over again, right here at Jurassic Punk.

And if you want more shots of stunning CGI cinematography, as well as glistening muscled men in nothing but thongs, capes and helmets, My New Plaid Pants has quite a collection of screencaps. Here is a sampling:
