Iranians insulted over "300"

There are certain things that annoy the hell out of me.... this being one of them.... that makes me want to scream at these retarded morons. They take a great kick ass movie ..... MOVIE being the keyword here.... and spin it into something so ridiculous and unbelievably negative. Honestly it makes me want to rip my hair out. I mean damn, I know things have been bad with Bush in office and the two sides of the world feuding but come on. Here is a little of what they have been declaring about what is really being said with this movie... -- which on a lighter note I highly recommend seeing --
The hit American movie “300” has angered Iranians who say the Greeks-vs-Persians action flick insults their ancient culture and provokes animosity against Iran. “Hollywood declares war on Iranians,” blared a headline in Tuesday’s edition of the independent Ayende-No newspaper. Javad Shamghadri, cultural adviser to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, said the United States tries to “humiliate” Iran in order to reverse historical reality and “compensate for its wrongdoings in order to provoke American soldiers and warmongers” against Iran. “The film depicts Iranians as demons, without culture, feeling or humanity, who think of nothing except attacking other nations and killing people,” Ayende-No said in its article Tuesday. “It is a new effort to slander the Iranian people and civilization before world public opinion at a time of increasing American threats against Iran,” it said.

The movie, which raked in $70 million in its opening weekend, is based on a COMIC-BOOK FANTASY version of the battle of Thermopylae in 480 B.C., in which a force of 300 Spartans held off a massive Persian army at a mountain pass in Greece for three days. Do you see the point I am trying to make? I guess nobody can make any battle movies that are Fictitious right? I guess they ALL have to be based solely on truth... like Pocahontas, Pearl Harbor (2001), and so on? Why does someone or some group have to ruin a good thing. I didn't, at any damn time while watching this movie, relate ANY of it to Iran or its' people. Grrrrr. What can I say any further on this subject except that you would think by now that you could make a movie about anything and it just be accepted as what it is.... a form of entertainment, pleasuring the soul from the harsh reality of that which is life, a break from all the monotonous day in day out, a glimpse into another moment of time that you could be a part of if only for a short while....
