300 (Is that Frank Miller's blood on the logo?)

That's right, after his work being castrated for the silver screen God knows how many times, the pain only continues for Frank Miller.

Another of his graphic novels is being adapted. No word as yet on Frank's take on this one but I am sure it will be vitriolic as usual.

On a less pessimistic note, the site for 300 has an astounding amount of information for a film that is not set for release for almost a year.


The video journals show how much green screen they are using. It seems similar to Sin City in that respect (click on the pic above to get an idea of how they are doctoring the initial print). It is interesting to see how difficult it is to act in a vacuum, with no atmosphere to shape your responses or emotions. It makes you feel for Ewan McGregor in the Star Wars prequels.

That, and there is lots of video footage of semi-naked buffed up gladiatoresque men (my God, David Wenham has buffed up!)
