Tony BakerHOST
I like that a lot.
Tony BakerHOST
I'ma go 300.
KevOnStageHOST
300.
Tony BakerHOST
That's Greg's-
KevOnStageHOST
Yeah
Tony BakerHOST
That's big Greek name." [laughs]
KevOnStageHOST
Leonidas Goosby is crazy sounding.
Tony BakerHOST
That's too much syllable But, uh, the stylization of 300, the way they made it was, like, I felt like, I don't wanna say revolutionary at the time, but it was a great change of pace.
Marc AraminiGUEST
Yeah.
Aaron IrberHOST
Well, I think, um, you know, when I was reading this the first time, you know, I, I watched the movie 300 when it came out, right?
Marc AraminiGUEST
Yes.
Marc AraminiGUEST
Mm-hmm.
Aaron IrberHOST
Yeah.
Aaron IrberHOST
So it's...
Aaron IrberHOST
If you go into it and all you have for, like, your, your vision of Per- ancient Persia [laughs] and, like, the, you know, the, the Battle of Thermopylae is, um, is the movie 300, you're gonna be probably pretty confused.
Aaron IrberHOST
Because, uh, the Persians [laughs] that's a pretty inaccurate portrayal of the Persians and, and the Spartans.
Danny KasmanGUEST
His other films are, have this, um, have this, uh, sort of extra contextual trappings.
Danny KasmanGUEST
There's skin, like th- uh, 300, uh, uh, uh, Dawn of the Dead is a zombie movie, 300 is, uh, you know, um- Greco-Spartan, um, ancient warfare.
Danny KasmanGUEST
He has space films.
Danny KasmanGUEST
He has, uh, uh, superhero films.
6 MINS LATER
Vikram MurthyGUEST
... and both of those are apparently Snyder collaborators.
Vikram MurthyGUEST
Uh-
Blake WilliamsHOST
Some of the 300.
Vikram MurthyGUEST
For sure.
Andrew LonGUEST
Nearly always the kind of references to what we would maybe describe as chanting now are kind of military based.
Andrew LonGUEST
So there's a really good example in the film about Sparta.
speaker_8SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
This is Sparta!
Fernanda EchavarriHOST
And to be clear, we're talking about the film 300, which came out back in 2006, starring Gerard Butler.
Andrew LonGUEST
two armies approach each other and the generals kind of face each other.
Andrew LonGUEST
And one of the generals says to the general who has the smaller army, like, how can you possibly think you're going to win? You're massively outnumbered.
Andrew LonGUEST
And the point the general is making is you are individuals.
Andrew LonGUEST
We are one math.
Mateo San DiegoHOST
Can you give us a little bit from your mind on what you were thinking?
FiendHOST
Well, I mean, the whole concept of it was centered around the movie The 300 and that they watched it as a team together, bonding experience.
FiendHOST
And one of the things that stuck with Coach Lewis is when the Spartan was looking out at the massive Persian army and saying, is there anyone out there who can give me a worthy death? And so it's about two competitors going at each other, right? And it's about respect too, right? And I don't think that was really conveyed today with all the national media and everything.
FiendHOST
If you back up in that press conference, Coach Lewis was very, very complimentary towards Coach Chesney.
Mateo San DiegoHOST
Let's listen to what Lewis had to say and what you took from it.
Sean LewisSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
This is what you want.
Sean LewisSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Like, let's step into an arena with one that's real, right? Like, I mean, it's kind of public knowledge that we watched 300 during camp, and there's an unbelievable scene.
Sean LewisSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
It's one of my favorite movies, right? Like, they get to the hot gates, and it's the first time that the Spartan warriors see the Persian army, right? And the Spartan warrior starts laughing, and the, you know, mercenary that's with them that's helping fight is like, what are you laughing about? He's like, hopefully there's someone down there that can give me a worthy death.
Brad BrockHOST
on this episode of jams and cocktails on the show this evening we're going to be doing some reminiscing looking back on our journey through 300 episodes of jnc this is the spartan kick cheers
EllyPANELIST

Brad BrockHOST
seem like catholic communion the best part of church
Brad BrockHOST
So thank you for being here with us tonight.
Brad BrockHOST
We love you so much.
Brad BrockHOST
Well, good evening, jammers, and welcome to Jams and Cocktails live episode 300.
Brad BrockHOST
I don't know where it is.
Brad BrockHOST
There it is.
Jacob ButeraGUEST
So, of course, we watched Troy, the Brad Pitt version of Troy, and talked about the Trojan War.
Jacob ButeraGUEST
We talked about 300, the Frank Miller adaptation and the Battle of Thermopylae.
Jacob ButeraGUEST
We had to watch Spartacus.
Jacob ButeraGUEST
We watched Monty Python's Life of Brian and talked about sort of early Christianity and what have the Romans done for us.
Jacob ButeraGUEST
And most of what we talk about is, what is the modern adapter doing with it and why is the ancient material the choice to send that? So Spartacus is the most famous example of this because the writer had been blacklisted during the McCarthy era and it has this very us versus them, the poor and the masses against the elite and the power-happy people.
Jacob ButeraGUEST
So there's a real... 50s political vibe to that.
Jacob ButeraGUEST
And we watched the 300 Spartans from the 60s.
Jacob ButeraGUEST
And you read that in the context of the Vietnam era and things along those lines.
Josh HallamHOST
This is the podcast where we celebrate films we think deserve a little bit more love.
Josh HallamHOST
Whether they're underrated, underseen, or sometimes even both, we're going to tackle them one film at a time.
Josh HallamHOST
I'm the host, Josh Allen, and I'm joined by my co-host, Jamie Allitt.
Josh HallamHOST
Jamie, how are you doing? I am magical, mate.
Josh HallamHOST
A little bit different this week.
Josh HallamHOST
Neither of us chose this, or both of us chose this, depending on how you want to...
Josh HallamHOST
We both hate this film.
Josh HallamHOST
Yeah, or both love this film.
Reed SmithHOST
Well, what I just mean is, Michael, like, with whatever version we're seeing, whatever the motivation, it does just seem to make sense that when they do seem to have more powerful, I mean, I feel like there are times when, like, it's frustrating these aliens don't have vicious, scary-ness, so it's, like, weird that we don't just have kind of, like, them wanting to take over the world as kind of, like, all what they want to do in the way we see with kind of like the Stamp and Shannon and you're right there may be different nuances but usually it's just pretty clear with it then that they want to take over the world and we can look into the different nuances of those Michael if we do want to review anyway Man of Steel and Superman and the movies that Terrence Stamp Superman is
Michael NorthHOST
in later but I think Zack Snyder is okay I actually enjoyed Man of Steel and I enjoyed Watchmen and 300's alright.
Michael NorthHOST
I like the visual components of his movies, but I agree.
Michael NorthHOST
There's not too much substance beyond that, beyond movies like MOS and Watchmen.
AdamHOST
This is asking for a, an anime series.
AdamHOST
This is begging to be episodic, or a film.
AdamHOST
I've been saying for years, "Why have we not gotten this?" And now we got it.
AdamHOST
Disney+ is the perfect place to put this.
AdamHOST
There's so many things Zack Snyder could be doing at Warner Brothers, but honestly, I didn't think a 300 prequel show was gonna be what was bringing him there.
AdamHOST
And I don't really know.
AdamHOST
I am in a small minority who doesn't really care for the film 300 much.
AdamHOST
I never read the graphic novel.
