Goddamn!
Angry Goddamn Zen Minion Ted O’Hanlan writes in with the goddamn news that there’s going to be a goddamn sequel to 300. Goddamn Zack Snyder has expressed goddamn interest in directing a second film but says he’ll wait until goddamn Frank Miller finishes the goddamn graphic novel. The goddamn sequel to 300 would cover the goddamn year between the goddamn battle of Thermopylae and the goddamn battle of Plataea which we saw the very start of at the end of the goddamn first film. Goddamn.
I think this is a goddamn stupid idea. A money making idea, surely, but goddamn stupid. Can you imagine sitting through a goddamn recruitment movie? “Hey, did you hear? Goddamn Leonidas lead 300 goddamn Spartans against the goddamn Persians!” “Well, goddamn! Let’s fuck em up!” Goddamn boring.
The story is told. The goddamn point of telling the goddamn tale of goddamn Thermopylae is the goddamn notion that a goddamn few can stand against goddamn many and that even in goddamn defeat can inspire goddamn victory. That’s all you goddamn need. I suppose the goddamn battle of Plataea would be goddamn interesting if only for the goddamn fight. But the goddamn period between just isn’t goddamn interesting. You don’t hear about the goddamn recruitment drive, you hear about the goddamn battle of Thermopylae.
God. Damn.

On a totaly different note (as I couldn’t find a way to comment on Erfworld 113 directly):
A Van der Graaf Generator reference?
You made my day right there.
Rock sans guitars rules!
I don’t think you said goddamn nearly enough.
it’s time to play the Jami Goddamn drinking game!
….goddamnit! fuck fuck fuck no!
Goddamned wonderfully flavored article. A goddamn pleasure to read.
I don’t know… I could see it being interesting if they focus on the naval battle of Salamis.
The Athenians lead a much smaller naval fleet into a sea battle that crippled the Persian fleet.
Hey, it could work.
You watch your goddamn mouth, goddamnit!
GODAMMIT!!!
