Iranians angry over "300"

So I havnt yet seen the movie "300", but I've heard from friends that its freaking awesome...I am a big Frank Miller fan, and the graphic novel was very good, and I'm happy to see it become a movie. To me, Iran seems to be grandstanding about the movie. If they had any ally in America it would most certainly be Hollywood. The fact that they take a movie version of a comic book as an insult shows how ignorant and quick tempered the people of Iran are....how many times in the 21st century have people made fun of Christianity....and how many people have been killed for it? If anything the people of Iran are futhering their image as angry, hate-filled people, who cannot except the changes of the 21st century.

You're right. Their tolerance levels are nonexistent and they're doomed to always have a mentality set in the dark ages.
Honestly, I don't care what they say anymore and either should anyone else. ****'em.
Want to know the bigger problem? The entertainment punditry with their bull**** theories and parallels right here in the western world. Is it possible to have a good ****ing movie without a bunch of starbucks poets and pundits trying to draw parallels with Iraq, playing the Bush card, and giving a damn what the Iranians think? Gotta love how people here are so interested in what a bunch of prehistoric-minded Persians are thinking. The only way you can see this movie there is on the black market as it’s been censored by their government.

When I watched the movie I didnt think anything about the Iranians.
On a side note, its based on true events (to a point), and is mainly meant for entertainment above all.
they are just mad because 300 Greeks kicked the ever living **** out of them and there dumb ninja suits.
