Tres Hundred

The whimperish flap that 300 might have even made is long passed. Three things:

* Does anyone know where I could find the Athenian leader's BMB profile?

* Did Edward Said do the art direction? Because I can't imagine any other way the ostensible West could pale any further in the face of such a sexy, interesting, diverse East. I kept dreaming of the bloody defeat of Greece so wild and crazy Persia could romp and gallavant all over the landscape.

* Xerxes did an excellent job in his portrayal of Grace Jones.
