But now I see that this is another radical Enviornmentalism movie. KILL OF THE HUMAN RACE TO SAVE THE EARTH? You know that someone there's some real nut who's going to be taking that seriously. I am sick of being preached at by these Hollywood Hippies who are also Hypocrites! You think they live GREEN in their giant mansions? Private Jets? Going to Hollywood Parties? Then they expect us to ride a bike to work and stop breeding? My worst fear is that we are entering an Era of "Green Fascism" where if you're not with the program you will be punished.

Hollywood shoving their superior elitist political views down our throats. I loved it when George Clooney publically stated his opinion about how he feels celebrities are "ahead of the curve" on social and political issues. How he and other big stars are somehow superior to us "normal" people when it comes to politics. And how the crowd (that were full of other celebrities) started applauding him. What I loved even more was the South Park episode that mocked the hell out of that, lol. Oh geez, what a huge surprise. Hollywood shoving their superior elitist political views down our throats.

It certainly lends credence to the arguement above about comics being used as propaganda...If you consider what was going on at the time Miller wrote the 300 with the US embassy in Lebanon and the plane hijackings in the Middle East with hostages being executed, and The Iranian hostage affair in the late 70's ealy 80's..it is easy to see why Miller would write the 300 in such a way...considering the link he obviously likes propaganda Cheers RandomHerm..Thanks for the link above.
