300 Offensive to Iranians according to Iran

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17599641/?GT1=9145

I like how whenever movies insult the US,UK,etc we just keep our silence and give people the right watch it and form their own opinions....but god forbid we make a movie making Persians look evil ( which they were at time, the movie shows this by making them look like demons....i mean come on they were their to invade Greece and burn down their cities) and Iran flips out and practically calls for all people of Persian decent to protest =/

Nah i can see why they would be offended. The Persians were depicted as barbarians and monsters in 300.
steeeeeeveperry

It's a movie, about how our history is written. So we can't appreciate history now? How about protesting when the book came out? Oh wait, they wait for things to hit pop culture before they protest.

The movie in my opinion is well done, and if they dont some research on that battle, the movie isnt offending them, the movie is just for entertainment. If they dont like how they were being portrayed in that film, then maybe they should be more careful about their actions and war before they give them more material to make another movie.

lol they can ***** about the movie all they want but it neither changes history nor does it change the fact that they have a freaking psycho for a leader and the government sucks....LostProphetFLCL

I dont know what era of the Persians that movie depicts as i havent seen it, but as i recall in the Persian Empire the Persian Emperors never believed in slavery or burning down villages. They would actually pay all laborers. The one time a city was burned down (Athens?) was actually because the Emperor had lost control over his soldiers. This act of violence of course pissed of their enemies even more and screwed over the Persian Empire in the end when Alexander the great came down on it.

This is of course, off the top of my head. I could be horribly mistaken, so feel free to correct me on my history :P

  Thats because western society is superior to tyranical governments and societies such as Iran, actions speak louder then words..

I'm iranian and its not offensive to me. I think Iranians may be a little upset because with the US policy towards Iran now they feel as if US is depicting them poorly over recent events. Any type of people should understand movies are movies, tv is tv, music is music stop taking things so seriously. Everyone already knows that Persians are as tyrannical as depicted in the movie anyway (I hope)Aura_Twilight

  Its most likely hard for them to understand that when the government over there has their hands in just about eveyrthing..

   A country always looks different when looked as a foreigner buddy..  Why do you think the average citizen in Great Britian for instance have a huge differences in opinion about the US, over a US citizen them self.  The US is easilly to see this on how bloody partisan we all are in the past 10 years when compared to other western nations..
