What a dude-bro sees: Some Persians about to get pwned by a really good-looking warrior. What a neocon sees: Really good-looking warrior preparing to defend the West (America) from barbarians from the East. Yes, that Spartan warrior is probably sharpening his sword and preparing for battle, but he's also sharpening his sword. And there's something funny in the thought that in theaters all throughout America, legions of straight men will be cramming into theaters to watch all of this homoeroticism - whether they're aware or not. One way to watch 300 is to kind of pretend it's seeping in subversive symbolism (which it may or may not be), and you're the only one who gets it (you're not). What a gay dude sees: Sorry, I'm blushing. What a dude-bro sees: Some Persians about to get pwned.

Hyper-stylized, grunty, and rippling at the same time, 300 is empty-calorie movie consumption at its best. Though Miller didn't spell out distinctly that the Spartans are his vision of America, knowing his mentality can shape the way we interpret his art.įor more casual fans, 300 is the kind of movie that Best Buy uses to show off surround sound systems or something you watch hungover on a Saturday afternoon in the middle of July. "It seems to me quite obvious that our country and the entire Western World is up against an existential foe that knows exactly what it wants … and we’re behaving like a collapsing empire ," he told NPR.

If you venture into the deep cuts section of 300 analysis , you'll find that the whole story might just be a neoconservative fever dream.
