Frank Millers 300 Trailer
Based on the epic graphic novel by Frank Miller, 300 is a ferocious retelling of the ancient Battle of Thermopylae in which King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes and his massive Persian army. Facing insurmountable odds, their valor and sacrifice inspire all of Greece to unite.
Style looks familiar? Frank Miller is also responsible for Sin City, which was filmed in the same way as 300 — that is, entirely against bluescreen.

Greenscreen!
(Cheers - watching it now)
Oh, right. Blue screen is only for Windows :)
Looks really cool. :)
I really like the visual expression of the movie. Can’t wait, thanks for letting us know. This is the sort of movie that would probably have slipped through the cracks of my conscious otherwise.
You’re very welcome. I was really impressed when I stumbled upon this myself.

They actually used to use blue screens, but green is apparently better for lighting.
Also, doesn’t the Xbox have a green screen of death? ;)
I have an Xbox with Xbox Media Center on it, and I’m afraid it’s actually got a Black Screen Of Death With Green Text :)
I don’t know about the 360. We have one at work, and it never crashed on us. It freezes all the time, though.
