It wasn't the full force of the Xerxes army, and I'm quite sure it wasn't just the Spartan army either. The Greeks barely had shit for armies because they had been in a state of civil war for many years, and eventually banded together for a common cause. Xerxes was eventually repelled not from land forces but in a navy force where his fleet went against an Athenian fleet. It was rather like the 300 spartans, because they basically channeled the Persian army into a very small area of water, and had rams attached to their smaller, more manueverable ships. They ended up battering the shit out of the Persian fleet, taking out something like 1/4th of the fleet. Xerxes retreated.

And there were no fucking Vikings. Wikipedia it if you want the true historical account. Though it doesn't seem like it, the movie is actually a bit historically accurate, but there are quite a few gaps in it. It would've been a much longer movie and not called 300 at all if it focused on the rest of Greece. It was a movie centered upon the Spartans at the Battle of Thermopylae and the inspiration to the Greeks, NOT Xerxes and his invasion.

Anyway, I may have a few facts mixed up. Wikipedia it if you're really interested, and yes, wikipedia really is a reliable source in the matter.

LMAO dude shut the fuck man, you got no idea wtf you're talkin about lmao. yo A: none of the shit you're rambling about happened in the movie, and that just happens to be exactly wtf we're talking about here - what happened in the movie. and B: they reflect back on the battle at marathon in the course of the movie so how the fuck are they fighting the same battle of marathon AGAIN at the end??

did you even see this movie man?

LMAO please shut the fuck up man and stop tryin to look like you know wtf you're talkin about cuz you read some highschool historyclass crap on wikipedia rofl

I just fucking said the Battle of Marathon was with Darius, who was Xerxes' father who did the exact same thing as Xerxes, leading Xerxes to follow in his father's footsteps to try conquer Greece as well. I admitted the battle they fought at the end was Plataea, not Marathon. It was in essence almost the same thing --- a mixture of Greeks repelling the Persians, though Marathon was not a decisive battle. Excuse me for mixing up two battles out of thousands in history, especially when they were so similiar.

Darius = Persian King with a large empire trying to invade Greece, was repelled by a ragtag group of Greeks.
Xerxes = Persian King with a large empire trying to invade Greece, was repelled by a ragtag group of Greeks.

You're trying to ask if I saw the movie, when you're the fucking person saying they fought Vikings, which lived far away in Scandinavia many centuries later? The shit I said didn't have to happen in the movie, because the movie was about THE SPARTANS AND THE INSPIRATION THEY HAD ON THE GREEKS. I was explaining how it wasn't a million man march only with Sparta in the way, and then the children and politicans and women didn't hold off the army for a year.

What you said:

Quote:

man im talking about at the end after Leo gets the merksauce. werent the persians supposed to invade Sparta?

i KNOW they aren't tryin to say a village of women children and fuckin politiians overthrew Xerces million man march

they skip right from the scene were popeye is tellin the story to evrybody in sparta straight to a battle with the vikings 10,000 strong a year later.

Sorry for trying to fucking clarify on the war with Xerxes. Carry on with your stupid ass questions about why the Spartans were battling Vikings.

dude im talkin about the fight they had AT THE END OF THE MOVIE. i'd have to be a tard of your level to think they were fighting anybody but the Persians during the movie.

and add to that i corrected Vikings to Barbrians. And it still doesn't explain the transition of what the hell happened and how they ended up fighting a completely seperate army at the end when we didn't see what happened with that army they were invloved with THAT THEY WERE LOSING TO!!.....sooooo wtf happened, Xerces said " ahh fukkit, im goin home"??

holy shit man. dude just do your self a favor and shut the fuck up rofl. go read more wikipedia and shoot from the ass

Yes, and so am I. And guess what? They were fighting other conquered people than the Persians, mixed into the Persian army. But they sure as fuck didn't fight Vikings.

Alright. You'd look less like a hypocrite if you didn't criticize me for mixing up two battles after you mixed up two people.

The Battle of Placaea happened much later in the war. We didn't see much of Xerxes' one million men in the battle. We see shadowy rows of archers lining the shore, people marching, a group of people on boats being smashed in a storm, etc. The people at the end could've been another piece of the army sent elsewhere to deal with other enemies, won, and returned. There are plenty of reasons for them fighting different looking people if you actually used your fucking head.

That wasn't the Spartan army...that was three hundred people lead by Leonidas. Hence the entire plot of the Council and the Queen attempting to get them to mobilize the Spartans.

Oh shit, son! Excuse me for using a website sourced by accounts of Herodotus and people that know a shit load more about history than RV cats. But it is wikipedia, and everyone knows all of the people who edit on wikipedia are ten year olds, not people that actually know anything.

no dude. you said the battle they had at the end of the movie came before the one they were having the whole movie, which is just flat out fucking stupid. at the end they're talkin about a new battle with the barbarians and you're saying they're having a prior battle with the persians lmao what a testicle.

blah blah blah man, what you're saying is a complete waste of time, cuz you're still rambling on about shit that's got jack shit to do with the movie.

And I corrected myself. How hard is it for you to fucking understand I mixed up one battle with another, after you just mixed up Vikings with the barbarians at the end of the movie? And if you paid any attention instead of scanning over arguments and focusing on one error I corrected before you pointed it out, the shit I said in that post was completely about the movie.

I know more about this shit from sources other than wikipedia. It's the only thing I have on hand right now to show. Anyone can make any website, and the other place I have to back my facts up is the internet unless you want me to send you some ebook versions of translated historical accounts --- but wait, those are translations and may be wrong, and since they're ebooks the person might've made a typo, so we can't rely on it.

Any source I show you on the internet has the possibility of being incorrect or used to give out false information. Wikipedia is a site maintained by many people, and as hard as it is to believe, not everyone on there is a vandal.

A year of warfare.

The army met at Plataea could've been sent elsewhere during the Battle of Thermopylae and returned during the year of battle. It's not like the entire Persian army was present every single charge. It is mentioned Xerxes is a self-stylized God and he has conquered many, many lands, getting exotic animals like massive rhinos and elephants. It's not hard to imagine the army you're seeing then is part of it. There may be other Persians on the way to the battle and all you see then is the initial confrontation of that specific army and the Greek army.

All you can do is speculate, since it is a fictional account of Plataea with less than a minute of anything shown in it. I was posting the info earlier in case anyone was interested in what happened between the gaps in the movie in other places, or what happened after the movie. It wasn't specifically designed toward you, even if I did quote you.

whoa wtf?
yall niggas is foolin
Imma sum it up for you

300 is about Leonardius and 300 of his best men holdin the Persian army off.
During the entire movie all them groups of people he was fightin was different factions of the persian army.

At the end of the movie, Leonardius wife convinced the rest of Greece to go to war.
Thats when the full fledged Greece army met the full fledged Persian army at the end of the movie.
The 1 soldier that Leonardius told to go home was the one tellin the story, so how did he know Leonardius died the way he did? lmao
but anyway.. there were no vikings.. Vikings are from Scandinavia.. and there were no barbarians.. barbarians are mostly nomadic villages of savages pillaging and wreckin anything in their way
