My grandfather recently watched this movie and he loved it! So now, he goes to every room of his home screaming, "THIS IS SPARTA" Imagine a 5'6 85 year old man rushing through every room doing this.
This, according to Butler, was the final take. He asked the director to "try something." One thing I appreciated in this was the continuity. When Leonidas drew his sword you could see the "traitor" walking away in the background even when the cameras changed.
Leonidus was such a badass. Fun fact: he hated money and the corruption it brings, but he knew he couldn't get rid of it outright. So, he changed the Spartan currency to 1lb iron disks but didn't change the value of each "coin." Money became so annoying that people started bartering again. Unfortunately, this is why the council was so easily bought by Persia.
The real life Spartans were even more savage. Philip of Macedon, father of Alexander the Great, encountered their sharp whit while conquering Greece. He asked them once if he should come to Sparta as a friend or a foe, there reply: neither! He went on to threaten that if he comes as a foe he will turn them inside out, their reply: if!
According to Butler in an interview he was originally says " this is sparta" quietly and over the take just got a bit louder like talk level. And then they were done moving on and Butler was like no no no let me take one more, let me try something. So they set it up for one more, then did "THIS IS SPARTA!!!" Kicked and cut the scene. People in the back were laughing and he was like oh man that was a little over the top right. Director said "Yes, but it was awesone!" And that last one was the one they ended choosing. I think we all can thank them for choosing that one as well for one of the most iconic scenes in Cinema History.
Tonight we dine in Hell. For the 300 Spartans killed at Thermopylae, Simonides wrote an epitaph: 'Go Tell the Spartans Passerby that Here Obedient to Her Laws We Lie'
"300" was a good movie and told the story well...but the movie "The 300 Spartans," made in the early 60s was better ( in my opinion). It had great battle scenes and told the actual story much better.
😮 I was there! ❤❤ They filmed this movie in Montreal Canada and my husband and 70 other stuntmen from Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal and Los Angeles, were the team on this movie 👏👏💐💯🔥 Sooo so proud of the work they did. They all worked so hard to look the part of Spartans and Persions ( a lot of the stunt guys played both groups of people) - jus with diff wardrobe - since Persians faces were covered. Love to see the reactions to one of the best lines in a battle movie
Es Interesante porque en esa época Esparta tenía dos reyes mientras Leónidas peleó en la termopilas el otro rey lucho en la batalla naval de micala donde vencio a los persas
Sorry under the cackling joker America is not America. The funny thing is I can’t wait to see all the liberals cry again just like they did in 2016. Kamala is underperforming Hillary and that says something. Kamal ain’t winning this election.
This has got to be a joke. How the fuck have these people (really ) never seen this movie??? Do people not watch movies anymore? Shit has been out since 2007. Jesus Christ 🤦🤦🤦🤦
"THIS IS SPARTA!" Is one of the greatest lines ever said in movie and TV history
No argument here.
It's not the line, it's the delivery.
This one and "release the kraken" are my top 2
This and 1-2 more
Not in tv history...
In real history!
Every guy who watched this scene, knew it was coming, felt the friggin rush and mimicked the scene. Brings a tear to my eye!

Nearly 20yrs later, this scene still ranks as one of the best. “This is Sparta!” Gives me chills

Kings have to be overthetop and inspirational, kinda the job.
Vkunia: ''What is the purpose of that massive hole in the middle of the city?''
Me: ''Obviously, it's for the disposal of rude Persian emissaries.''

THIS IS SPARTA!!! Leonidas said calmly.
:'))
"Did you put the envoy in the bottom of the pit?"
I luv this scene cuz he doesn't make a move without acknowledgment from his Queen
I love channels like this, introduces me to new reactors to watch. Nice video, my friend.
Welcome aboard!
one of Gerard Butler's best roles, legendary

I’ve never obsessed over the logic of the giant pit to hell in this particular movie. Haha
It's a well
I was a little surprised to see so many women get so excited to see such a violent moment.
Asia - "whats down there"
Me - "earth and water" Duh.
I love the first guys adding the kick at the end. That was golden.
Keep up the good work my man...love the content...thank you
I like how every guy knew this line 😂
8:55 🤭 🤣🤣
*insert Michael's quote here*
I'm beginning to think folks back then didn't like being disrespected or is it just me.
Yay
Molon Labe is the hardest line in history.
First i play this video, i caught surprised by your apperance in corner cam😂😂😂
I thought you are an indian version of pedro pascal😂😂😂
Sorry 🙏🤭
I saw this in the theater and you actually FELT like a Spartan during this scene.
THIS IS SPARTA!! "I'm supposed to be back by 6" lmao great reaction comment
"What is the purpose of that massive hole?" It's called a "plot hole."
He said " every man takes responsibility for his words even a messenger takes heed of his words in Sparta" at that point it was over.
Spartans go hard... they are really tough too. 😂
Leonidas introducing his new girlfriend:
"THIS IS MARTHA"
Persians were gangsta until they realized they were on a wrong hood.
GLORIOUS!
My favorite part is the nod from the Queen, knowing this means they are going to war against the biggest army in the world.
THIS IS SPARTAAA
Just remember who gave the (do it ) nod !
“What’s down there?” Well, they will have plenty of time to wonder about that on their way down
the queen has final say in that situation and they must follow her orders everytime
Here’s what I think Leonidas and Gorgo were saying.
Leonidas: I’m gonna kill him.
Gorgo: Yeah.
To be fair Leonidas did not kill the messenger, he just kicked him into the pit. Rapid deceleration killed him.
Holes generally go down, to the bottom..
"You threaten my people with slavery? We're the ones who do the enslaving around here."
You should make one for the ending of La Bamba.
New sub.
TBR rules ❤
many got this wrong ... he looked back for her support not permission lol
F A F O
What's down there is a long drop and sudden stop........
1:25 that's actually Leonidas 😅
15:39 To anybody who knows, this is ironic...
wait a second , as they were falling, in the background, did I hear a toilet flush?
Never insult a Lannister.
Zack Snyder... THIS is greatness! You are capable of greatness! What happened to you?! I want the old Zack Snyder back!
So how did the Spartans die out if they were so badass? Disease through tainted ground water perhaps.
