[@ColonelPeppers]

Fantastic choreography and slow-motion filming.

[@DBlock_11x]

Looking back now at Snyders movies, I never realized how much he used slow motion

[@romilrh]

A really cool detail is that the Spartans would have a row of soldiers in the back whose job it was to stab the enemies they trampled over as that advanced, just to make sure they were all dead and wouldn't surprise them from behind. You can actually see it at 2:05

[@Personnoname114]

Which makes no sense for Leonidas to deny the offer from the disabled man earlier, he said every man is crucial for his allies in the line, but he can just put him in back doing the thing you said, hence he wont get betrayed

[@romilrh]

@@Personnoname114 nah because if things went bad and their formation was threatened, they'd need every man ready to get right into the thick of it. The disabled man would've been useless in a situation like that

[@frozenphoenix5121]

When Zach Snyder actually made films and actually cared about it.

[@jeremyfusenliu3859]

What's also really cool about this is that while the Persian had numbers, the Spartans used tactics and formation to their advantage. The narrow corridor meant that the Spartans won't be flanked and I really loved how the 2nd row moved infront of the 1st row covering them after they stabbed their enemy, it wasn't until the enemy number thinned that the Spartns broke formation but still reminded in range of each other.

[@m-h1217]

True, although in reality they wouldn't break formation and leave the cliff pass, that was their most advantageous position.

[@tomascostanzo3673]

[@damaniqphillip2756]

Wow

[@ryanhendrickson6012]

Believe it or not this is more accurate than you might think. The greeks were obsessed with fitness and the warrior class of citizen soldiers trained relentlessly. An analysis of their diet and the extensive network of gymnasiums found suggests that a high muscle low fat build similar to an mma middle to heavy weight fighter would be the typical greek hoplite. Not every soldier though, the auxiliary troops were not citizens and performed lesser duties, but the heavy frontline infantry could very well have looked this built. As for the costumes thats actually very modest as there are records of battles taking place at the height of the Mediterranean summer where you had to go skins to avoid heat stroke. Fighting for hours in armor is bad enough, hence why the shield was so large.

[@ysdnsingh]

Thanks for this insight.

[@praetorian9823]

I understand that but also considering the sheer numbers of the Persians at that point compared to the 300 Spartans and the 6700 other Greek allies who made their stand, not wearing armor would be an awful choice in this scenario. Plus, come on, the armor looks *way* cooler than them being nearly butt naked if we're going by the rule of cool.

[@ryanhendrickson6012]

​@praetorian9823 I dunno bro, Lotta pottery had neked buff greek hoplites, an that's one of our main sources of evidence! I understand your point though, the armor sick AF! And the front line probably wore it. The reservist in the back though...

[@praetorian9823]

@ryanhendrickson6012 good point. To be fair, though, a ton of stuff gets overexaggerated both ways. Even with regards to the Spartans, as far as I recall, after Rome conquered them, their training regiments got way more brutal than they originally were as an independent nation to try and sell how tough they were. Don't get me wrong, Spartan training was obviously still insane, but they added a lot more brutality to try and make it seem like it was nearly impossible to beat a Spartan.

[@plymouth5714]

Great movie and a great scene even though totally wrong! The whole point of the Spartan and Greek phalanx was to present an unbroken line of shields and spears to the enemy (as the first couple of minutes showed), they would never have broken up into individual combat - earlier Leonidas even refused Ephialtes' help because he couldn't raise his shield high enough to protect the man next to him as he would need to do in the front rank! Still, its a moving graphic novel, not an authentic account of the battle (the actual pass was a few hundred yards wide, not a cramped corridor and there were around 7,000 other Greek warriors there too!)

[@m-h1217]

You are very right about everything except the width of the pass. At the most narrow section it's estimated to have been 15 meters (50 feet) wide.

Truth is, nobody really knows if this battle happened at the hot gates or not. It's only mentioned in one historical text, and that was written many years after the battle happened, supposedly based on accounts of a few who were there on the Greek side. No accounts exist of those who fought for the Persian army. Archeological excavations also don't offer much evidence of a major battle in that location, except for a small hill on the costal pass where many arrowheads were found. However this site has been the location for many skirmishes over history, many between rival Greek tribes/kingdoms.

[@CianCanoli]

What's funny is in reality there were 5000-7000 other greek forces here as well, and yet the Spartans get all the credit. I mean it is really not that hard to defend a cliff. Then once the Persians figured out how to go around the Spartans and greeks lost. Spartans were great warriors but their formations were really static which is why they lost so many times.

[@m-h1217]

There were no Athenians at the Battle of Thermopylae. Important to note that movie and the comic it is based on also aligns more with the guarding of the retreat of the bulk of the Greek army, Hence 300 Spartans and the Thespians, rather than the start of the invasion.

[@CianCanoli]

@m-h1217 You are right, there were not any athenians there but a bundle of more than 5000 other greek forces. You are also underestimating it, even as the greek forces were retreating, the number left behind was 1200 to 1400, including the 300 remaining spartans, yet I do not see the other greek forces on the screen. And even so, it is not hard to defend a cliff side.

[@m-h1217]

@@CianCanoli "there but a bundle of more than 5000 other greek forces." I already addressed this, it was in fact closer to 7000. The Thespians, around 700, are the only ones other than the Spartans which are unanimously considered to have stayed. These were in the movie. Other mentions of states exists, such as Helots, but it's less unanimous.

[@CianCanoli]

@m-h1217 For one, you didn't really address it, you passed over it. Two, I said more than 5000 because I looked at multiple sources and found it generally to be 5 to 7 thousand. Three, it was also reported that 900 helots and 400 Thebans were there too, though for the Thebans, they surrendered some time during the retreat. I know you said the report wasnt quite unanimous but it's still there.

[@m-h1217]

​@@CianCanoli Yes, I "passed over it" because it wasn't relevant in any way. I specifically adressed the part that was relevant to the movie, not the entirety of the battle, as evident in my original response. As for the rest of the response, you're only repeating what I've said, I recognize the fact you've probably repeated exactly what's said on wikipedia from what I remember, so at this point you're just looking for some kind of rebutal for an unknown reason.
