What I really thought was silly was that Christ imagery as Leonidas lays dead. That struck me as cheesy in the extreme.

Beautiful death couldn't come a such a better time

Historically, there were over four thousand Greeks who stayed with the Spartans and died with them. And if you ask me, it's disrespectful in the extreme to just leave them out of the movie, even if it was dumb. I mean, while it's uber-macho to have them rush into battle wearing nothing except bulging loin-clothes, in real life they wore around forty pounds of gleaming bronze armor. And now that I think about it, they didn't use their swords for slashing as the movie portrays because bronze is bendy and can't hold an edge worth a crap.

Does anyone else find it kinda ironic (okay, maybe not truly ironic but I can't think of any other word) that this qualifies as a Blaze of Glory, both from the category and what the film-makers were going for, and yet Leonidas is probably the only Spartan there who didn't actually kill anybody?
