One of the best lines from a movie...
... Ever:
I've been on this X Files kick recently so I decided to revisit the movie and had forgotten all about this line:
Scully: I saw your face Mulder. There was a definite moment of panic.
Mulder: You've never seen me panic. When I panic, I make this face.
[remains impassive]
LOL You have to love the chemistry between Scully and Mulder it is definitely one of TVs greatest only because you know she's all that. Nobody but Gillian Anderson can march out in a beige pant suit and still leave you thinking.. .damn, she's hot.

300
I really, really, really liked this movie. Even though I thought the previews looked good, I wasn't in the mood to see a movie tonight. Nevertheless I had to go for a team outting event at work. I'm so happy I went. There were long lines and the theater was packed which made me glad that we decided to buy all the tickets in advance.
The way the story was told was rather riveting. There was a good balance of story, gore, and cinematography so that no one thing overpowered the movie. I have a feeling this was a much longer movie than eventually made it to theaters. I've already signed up on Amazon to be notified when the DVD gets released for this reason.
The acting was well done for the most part. The lines were blurred slightly between reality and fiction, but never frayed so far out as to distract.
This is definitely a movie you want to see in the theater. The I can't imagine the imagery being the same on a home theater, although Sony does make some pretty LCDs these days, and Blu-Ray could certainly shine this movie up, it's still not the same unless the Spartans are all 12 feet tall LOL. I would still recommend you FANDANGO your tickets. Especially if you live in a bigger city. Our tiny little theater was flooded with people, and when I called to check which theater it was at the 411 lady from my cell phone provider said that the whole country was calling in for showtimes for 300.
It is certainly worth the going rate of a movie ticket wherever you are.
