TOP "Battle Formations" Reactions! 300 (2006) Movie Reaction *First Time Watching*

[@LlamaLlamaMamaJamaac]

I loved how Ash compared them to an orchestra, bc music and dance was so incorporated into their training!

[@Fabsterman]

This is one of those one in a million movies which are just pure perfection in every aspect..... love it to death

[@johnnieangel99]

The best part of this movie is the simple fact that it stays so true to the graphic novel. I highly recommend it if you haven't seen it. Frank Miller is such an amazing artist and writer.

[@mastermill79]

Frank Miller's comic transformed into this well choreographed ballet of blood. Top notch!

[@brettmanus7904]

This message is to the gentleman that posts these videos. Please try to avoid reactors that blur their video every couple of seconds. It is INCREDIBLY disruptive and actually gives people headaches. Second, people who show videos with no sound make things really annoying, because a movie is nothing without sound.

Ive been to thermoplye it was insane to stand where 7000 greeks( its true there were 300 spartans but they had other greeks with them) stood against the persians for 3 days

[@andrewward5891]

That’s right. The Spartans covered the retreat of the rest of the Greek army when the Persians flanked their position. The Spartans died to the last man but bought time for the rest of the Greeks to get away to fight another day.

[@gigantorize]

As a student of history this battle was most important to the future of Europe. There was one place and one place only the Persians would go to after completely destroying the Greeks and that was Western Europe.

[@VengeDracul]

The Best Movie of 2006 hands down. I lost count how many times I have watched this movie. I remember watching the Original movie with my father as a kid.

[@Jay_Z.]

This is by far one of my favorite movies! Gerard Butler did amazing as King Leonidas!

[@richr.7698]

Gerard.

@richr.7698 Thanks, i also thought I spelled it wrong. But, I didn't bother to try to change it until you put the right name!😄

[@benjaminodem392]

10:28 "It's like a Taylor Swift concert." Best comment :)

[@andrewward5891]

Of course the Spartans didn’t fight wearing just leather bikini bottoms. They wore head to toe bronze armor. That gave them a big advantage over their lightly armored Persian opponents.

[@MrNachosMine]

Thank you for posting your reactions to these compilations of other reactions! Great intense scenes!

"Even my Gate is a little Hot." Georgefrom cinebinge is so damn funny.

[@bigwill45]

I know this is a glamorization, but this is a famous historical battle. It seems like a lot of these people don't have any clue about it. The Battle of Thermopylae.

[@darthrevan-]

Ive been to thermoplye it was insane to stand where 7000 greeks( its true there were 300 spartans but they had other greeks with them) stood against the persians for 3 days it was an honor to be there its one of my favorite battles in history

[@eobardthawne5246]

​@@darthrevan-So the exact location is actually known.

[@anathardayaldar]

@@eobardthawne5246 That's what the tour guide claimed. Confirmed by the gift shop.

[@ryanhampson673]

@@eobardthawne5246 Not only is it known but the ancient monument that honors the battle still exists with the inscription “Go tell the Spartans, Stranger passing by, that here obedient to their laws we lie.”

[@mikeeckel2807]

There was ! Movie in the early 1960s that was much morehistorically accurate. It was called "The 300 Spartans." Richard Egan starred as Leonidas.

[@Electronaut76]

That silent Moment the Phalanx shifted Gears from Reverse to Drive...Maaan 😮

[@jpmangen]

The formation is called a Phalanx.

[@SheldonGoodboy]

Watching them charge, it's like a Black Friday sale at Best Buy!!

[@gunguy5409]

This movie gave the Spartans the iconic warrior prowess they were legend to have perfectly

[@robertguest5215]

These were pure warrior class, They wore the red cloak to cover any signs of wounds or blood. And their women were just as capable in battle. A race born for war. And although this is a little glamorized......it actually happen.When 300 and a few others stood against perhaps over 100,000 of the persian empire, and held them at bay for 2 days....remarkable effort.

[@richter6699]

Lol, no. Their women were not just as capable in battle. But you're right that they did occasionally help in times of war. No race who has ever existed in recorded history has had men just as weak as their women. Boys and girls are obviously different.

[@davidward9737]

The battle at Thermopylae. The Phalanx is one of the best battle formations

[@brettmanus7904]

The reason a fair number of cultures went into battle naked, or nearly naked had reasons. First, to some opponents it was intimidating and unnerving. Second, should a warrior suffer a wound, grimy cloth would not be pushed into, and left behind, in the open wound. They had a better chance of recovery that way.

[@d4mdcykey]

_"Lay down your weapons!"_ _"Come and get them."_ My favorite lines in a film full of superb quotes.

[@marcoadan1]

'Molōn labé'(come and take them) is apparently the Greek phrase the actual Leonidas wrote in response to Xerxes demand to lay down arms on the eve of the battle. According to Wikipedia. I think that's badass.

[@d4mdcykey]

@@marcoadan1 Ah, very cool, thanks for the info!

[@wolfwalkerz6978]

​@marcoadan1 I read that is still used as a motto by the Hellenic(Greek) Army's armored divisions.

[@Darth_Conans]

"Come and take it" is also a famous phrase from the Texas Revolution, told to the Mexican army when they demanded a town surrender a cannon - a deliberate historical reference to "molon labe".

[@robertstrong6798]

To any historian this is hilarious 😆 they throw away all there advantages and break formation and do one on one combat later lol 😂 but hay it’s based on a comic book it’s fine 👍

[@garywheble4534]

There was a force of five thousand Greeks there from various city States the Spartans only made up three hundred because of Religious reasons

[@mudflapsmoviereviews]

This movie is soooo freakin amazing 🔥🔥

[@chriscramer7110]

"Theyre not trained soldiers like the spartans, right?" Nope. Nobody were trained soldiers like the spartans.

[@ghostjacker]

Rush hour back in the day, was absolute carnage.

[@tovinikgroz868]

When Americans were Europeans , we Europeans were killing eachoter and every one else in the world know to men. Spartans were like Navy seals by the thousands in numbers. And yes that was a famous battle where aparently 300 Spartans held back the Persian army.

In a real phalanx formation, the soldiers would be stabbing from OVERhand, not underhand, correct?

[@LittleBlueOwl318]

They would be stabbing whichever way they need to 🤷‍♀

Who would think this fight gonna come TRUE! In Ukraine🇺🇦 NATO🇺🇲🇬🇧🇪🇺50 Nations VS Russia🇷🇺🦾

[@zuluschmidt]

And i thought the big russian bear attacked the small Ukraine...

[@kak-to_tyajelovato]

Actually, these are completely different wars in nature. Russia and Ukraine and the NATO countries are bourgeois democracies in their political structure. Economically, these countries are capitalist. The modern war in Ukraine is imperialist, for the redistribution of markets and the re-privatization of industry and business.(Generally of an economic nature under the guise of national interests). And the war of Sparta and the Persian Empire is a war because of the thirst for power of certain tyrants and despots and the feeling of divine superiority of one people over another.(It was normal for any state or even tribe to think this way in the ancient era) According to the political system, these are slave-owning states (Sparta is a military republic, Persia is an absolute despotic monarchy) But the main difference is that it was Persia that attacked Sparta, and not the other way around (and for some reason you are exposing Russia as Sparta...but again, the reasons for the attack are completely different)😐

[@Darth_Conans]

I mean, it did "come true", it's literally a dramatized historical event.

[@locutusofborg3418]

Long live the idea that peoples beliefs should be unvisualized by a systematic mathmatical problem wich is solved only by the measure of a mans sweat on his brow as he contemplates the duality of life in bringing his own commission into an accordance with the principles of a derelict system dumbfounded by its custodial rights and perceived injustice that can only accommodated in the fourth dimension

[@Silviu86syd]

Whatever you're smokin, i want some, brotha!

[@d4mdcykey]

Rational action requires evidence. Given that beliefs inform action, beliefs ought to be informed by evidence. However, the human capacity to revise beliefs in the face of conflicting evidence is, charitably, imperfect. Humans are prone to motivated reasoning, identity protective cognition, confirmation bias, myside bias, naïve realism, and bias blind spots. Human cognition holds that reason is, at least to some extent, responsible for accurate belief formation.

They most likely have to due to KZbin rules for them. Maybe you should know what you're talking about before mouthing off, eh?

[@LittleBlueOwl318]

That's a KZbin policy that the creators must abide by or they can be demonetized and/or lose their channel altogether... blame the policy makers, not the creators.
