"Remember us."
Almost 2,500 years later, we still do.
"Ephialtes, may you live forever." That line always gets me.
💯
One of the most profound curses I’ve ever heard, especially considering the beliefs at the time.
And his name lived fore ever. In Greek the word for nightmare is Ephialtes
Like Judas or Benedict Arnold.
You can see Ephialtes’ reaction after hearing this. Devastated.
To give you an idea of how badly Xerxes was defeated in real life, he was carried to Greece and had to walk back to Persia.
Your perception of defeat is hilarious. Xerxes did more good than bad. While this movie is definitely awesome as a action movie it’s inaccurate, and paints the Greeks as noble which isn’t very true. Xerxes did a lot of good, so while the battle was a defeat his legacy wasn’t
@@eklipseempire8807Yeah, honestly the second movie, while not as perfect, showed how savage the Greeks were.
The lead Villainess was raped at the edge of 8 or so.
And that was after witnessing her own mother being gang raped and murdered.
@@eklipseempire8807 lol not accurate to our reality, but 100% accurate to the reality the film is a part of.
@@eklipseempire8807idk about that, in comparison to previous kings Xerxes isn't among the greats.
@@eklipseempire8807 "Perception of defeat" Xerxes was defeated. he left after the campaign to return to persia and basically do nothing for the rest of his life. Xerxes was nothing more than a power hungry king just like most other kings in ancient times. set on revenge and power.
So, a fun fact about "this is Sparta." That was the final take, and Butler didn't shout it in any of the others. He just said it with a stern voice. But he told Zac Snyder he wanted to try something, so they did the take, and he did the yell. According to Butler, Snyder was laughing his ass off after he did it, and when asked if it was too much, he said, " Yeah, but it was awesome!".
And it WAS!!!
Facts:
1. King Leonidas was around 60 years old when he fought this battle..!! 🔥⚔
2. Efialtis (Εφιάλτης) (The traitor who told Persians the secret passage), actually means "Nightmare" in Greek
3. The phrases below, were actually told by Spartans in that battle
a) Get back with your shield, or on it. (᾿Ή τὰν ἢ ἐπὶ τᾶς)
b) Then we will fight in the shade.
c) Come and get them. (Μολὼν λαβέ)
“His roar, was long, and loud”. The choice to not let us hear the roar was genius. Chills Everytime i see it
Seeing Devin more excited than a kid at a candy store is amazing.
Basically cause we were him at some movie at least.
One of most beautifull true storys in human history.. IM PROUD TO BE GREEK❤❤
The Battle of Thermopylae in 480 BC between the Achaemenid Persian Empire under Xerxes I and an alliance of Greek city-states led by Sparta under Leonidas I. Lasting over the course of three days. 300 Spartans fought. Leonidas was among the last 3 soldiers. He was killed by an arrow and the last 2 Spartans died protecting his body.The movie dramatize the battle a bit for entertainment, but factually the spartan did kick the persians ass.
8 thousand Spartans fought
Actually nο, the Spartans were indeed 300, but they were also accompanied by 7000 soldiers from other city states
@@timangelis8999 The Spartans also brought @ 400 Helots with them ( I think it was that number but its been awhile since I read the details 🤷 ) .. Plus they weren't alone at the end. They were joined by @ 700 Thespians in their last stand. One account mentions a contingent of Thebans staying behind with them, but ultimately surrendering, while the Spartans and Thespians fought to the last man.
This is better than John Wick, Gladiator, Troy, any of the movies in its genre. It’s basically other worldly and checks every box imaginable. But it also has heart and to me the ending is heart breaking but glorious at the same time. It’s in a league of it’s own and just hard to put into words how good this movie is.
Completely agree!!
To mention this movie in the same category as the film Gladiator is a crime!
Frank Miller did a good job writing and drawing and the directors knew to stay close to his original artwork in the comics! :)
I don't know about all that Gladiator, and Troy were amazing movies.
The movie is a sanitised retelling of history. The movie is a racist historical revisionism that portrays the Persians as savage animals and the Greeks as noble heroes. The director neglected to include a lot of unsavoury Greek history in the movie. Unsavoury history about how the Spartans loved to torture and murder their slaves, how pedophilia and homosexuality was the norm among the Spartans. The Spartans were not the clean cut noble heroes the movie portrays them to be. The Spartans and Greeks in general were a society of power hungry and blood thirsty savage perverts.
This movie was cool as hell! Makes you want some reps while you're at it.
Absolutely!!
it gets even more epic when you find out that half of the one liners were actually said back then. Btw Ephialtes name still lives on in Greece as it means nightmare. So everytime we see a bad dream we say we saw an Ephialtes. Epic age and epic people.
I absolutely adore the final scene when he says they stare across the field had 10,000 Spartans commanding 30,000 Free Greeks give thanks to Leonidas and the brave 300... also fun fact the actor gives the final speech is the same guy who played faramir in The Lord of the Rings brother of Boromir
Bro how excited you were is exactly how I acted showing this to my girl for the first time. She LOVED the movie, glad yours did too. Great reaction y'all
My fav quote: ''The world will know that free men stood against a tyrant, that few stood against many, and before this battle was over, even a god-king can bleed.''
"Then we will fight in the shade."
That line wasn't written as just a line in the script, but was actually uttered back then.
Incredible.
"It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog" It was our high school motto.
Gerard Butler killed this role and awesome reaction.
Only time I ever gave a standing ovation in the theater
An interesting fact about Spartans, the only way to get a headstone upon death was to either die in battle if you were a man or to die during childbirth if you were a woman. Death in battle or childbirth were the highest honors lol. Explains a lot of the attitude of the men when it comes to battle 😂😂
i don't know if it is just me but i find that films that are based on true story's/facts are ALLWAYS fantastic films...the washed out color's combined with the epic CGI effect's and slow motion combat scene's make this an epic film.
Good point!
True..
The only problem is when you like it so much you look into the actual event's and then find out about 5% of the film happened and the rest is just entertainment..
The colours and the movies artistic expression is made to look as close to the original comic book by Frank Miller. He wrote and drew 300, just like he wrote the Sin City comics that were also made into movies and share stylistic similarities. He has a very unique drawing style with alot of emphasis on the contrast between black and white/Darkness and light. Thats why the directors chose to tone down the colours while also highlighting the blood red colours, just like Miller did...
Frank miller has also written and drawn some of the most iconic Batman comics called The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Returns wich were made into comicmovies with again similar styles...
I read theese comics as a young teen and they made a huge impression on me and my own drawings.
When theese movies came out it was epic for a comic book geek like me. :)
yea 5%
always*
Fun real fact: “The Immortals were called that because they were trained in groups of 10,000 and he had many of these Legions so as 10,000 were reaching the final 1/4 of men left they’d match in another 10,000 and so on and so on , so it seemed like their numbers were infinite and as they advanced it seemed to their enemies as tho the 10,000 they’d killed just got back up as the immortals pressed on putting fear in their enemies when in reality there were jsut countless being sent to the slaughter waves and waves continuously replenishing the 10,000 so they began to be known globally as The Immortals and the world believed they were actually immortal. There’s a lot of this movie that is actually factual . Leonidas was an absolute legend an elite warrior that truly led at the tip of the spear into battle. It’s interesting that the Persian emperor said no one would know Leonidas existed , that he’d wipe his name from history but here, today, SO many centuries later a legendary movie was made about him and the 300 Spartans. Guess he didn’t wipe it from history enough. Lol
Immortals were 1000 strong, not 10k iirc.
Zack Snyder is an excellent Director, also, the cast was so good.
So, there actually almost certainly WAS a real life military unit called The Immortals in the Persian Empire, though obviously nothing like what was pictured in the movies. They were likely some kind of bodyguard force or palace guard, or that's the best guess. They got their name not because the individuals were immortal, but because the unit always numbered 1000 strong. If one got sick, maimed, killed, whatever, there was a roster of backups, and the next man immediately filled the spot, so they were "immortal." But they live up to their name, because the rulers of that area for most of history since the Persian Empire have always had a unit named (either officially or unofficially) The Immortals. In fact, some of their insignia/emblems are still in use today, in the Iranian (modern day Persia) Army.
10,000 men
I was disappointed that the director neglected to include a lot of Greek history in the movie. Greek history about how the Spartans loved to torture and murder their slaves, how pedophilia and homosexuality was the norm among the Spartans. The Spartans were not the clean cut noble heroes the movie portrays them to be. The Spartans and Greeks in general were a society of power hungry and blood thirsty savage perverts.

some of the iconic quotes "Persians come and get them" "tonight we dine in hell" and a few others are true quotes. specially the one at the very end "go tell a spartan passing by....." that one was engraved into the stone/statue that is there for this battle.
Devin ain't playing with this one...😂🔥🔥🔥
He sure wasn’t!!
3:57 What a start! I love this part the most! They all got hyped listening to the story of their king!
ya all should watch the follow up movie to this one , the actress said in a interview for the promotion of the film it was like war porn for men LMAO !!! i watched both of them !
Awesome reaction. This movie is truly epic
Soooo great!!
I see how much you love 300, I think you would enjoy the show Spartacus Blood and Sand on Starz. The messager that King Leonidas kicked down the well plays in the show, he is really good in that show.
That was a good show and Peter Menshai was great he's a underrated actor who needs to push higher
@@jasongarcia1886
Yes I agree
May you live forever is like the Spartan for "you bi*** a** coward"😅
Love y’all’s reactions!! Great movie!
No mercy!!
Keep the reactions going!!
Spartans in this movie is like the saying "better to be a warrior in a garden then a gardener in a war"
You are the only reactor I've seen watch '300', who is actually MORE fit than the Spartans in the movie lol, you are too damn big, man. A damned brick house of a human being
I subscribe almost out of fear at this point, or else I'm worried that one day I'll find Devin G hiding out under the bed waiting to catch me slipping lol
They didnt train for that, they lived for it.
This is on my short list of 're-watch' movies. Always gets me pumped and gets that adrenaline burning.
💯
It's a well done propaganda movie from the vile mind of hellywood. The movie is a sanitised retelling of history. The movie is a racist historical revisionism that portrays the Persians as savage animals and the Greeks as noble heroes. The director neglected to include a lot of unsavoury Greek history in the movie. Unsavoury history about how the Spartans loved to torture and murder their slaves, how pedophilia and homosexuality was the norm among the Spartans. The Spartans were not the clean cut noble heroes the movie portrays them to be. The Spartans and Greeks in general were a society of power hungry and blood thirsty savage perverts.
@@efef6853 "The Spartans and Greeks in general were a society of power hungry and blood thirsty savage perverts." So were the Persians and every other culture at the time. Torture and murder of slaves, pedophilia and homosexuality were the norm for all cultures back then.
i am Greek and i will share a very interesting fact..Ephialtis ,the traitor when spartans fell Leonidas said to Ephialtis to live forever...in english ephialtis means nightmare and this word is used from the greeks we have it to our vocabulary so yeah he lived forever :P
Have you seen Beowulf (2007)? Quite a epic , and underrated, "animated" hero tale 👍
" MY ARM!!!!!" "Its not yours anymore...." ROFLMAO... Geezus Christ the subtle joke...
You have to remember, back in those days, the spring and summer were fighting months, and in the case of Sparta, when the men went off to fight whomever they were fighting that year, the women were left behind, and were responsible for the defense of Sparta while the men were gone, so they were killers in their own right, granted they did not get trained like male Spartan's, but they were more than just credible women who can bear young and cook, they could fight, and fight well.
The best book about Thermopolae is Gates of Fire by Pressfield. Period.
What Captain Dienekes failed to remember, Leonidas is a battle formation.
Devin should have played a Spartan soldier in this film! You would have been excellent! 👏
Müslims will take over europa
i love it when he says to subscribe, the subcribe buttom is actuelly lighting up
2:14 "hes a fantastic akor" *her smile* lmao hahahaha
"damn son whered you find this this" love this one guys.
Good stuff crack up seeing U get so hype at the start lol
I first seen this movie in Kuwait waiting to go into Iraq. It was in a hot ass tent and the movie was some shitty bootleg. It was amazing. Everyone was doing the 300 workout during that deployment.
Thank you for your service!
The movie is a sanitised retelling of history. The movie is a racist historical revisionism that portrays the Persians as savage animals and the Greeks as noble heroes. I wonder how many morons were duped into joining the US army after watching the pro war propaganda movie that is 300. The director neglected to include a lot of unsavoury Greek history in the movie. Unsavoury history about how the Spartans loved to torture and murder their slaves, how pedophilia and homosexuality was the norm among the Spartans. The Spartans were not the clean cut noble heroes the movie portrays them to be. The Spartans and Greeks in general were a society of power hungry and blood thirsty savage perverts.
Yeah, but you were the Persians there, not the Spartans.
@@alichinoalichino2283 yeah, I guess so.
Efialtis (Εφιαλτης) , the traitor is actually the greek word for nightmare since then. That is when Leonidas told him that his name will live forever.
Im ready for them to bring us a 3rd movie.
Three words: Alexander The Great
@@kennysasinoski1097 Absolutely
If you want more information on Spartan society, I highly recommend Plutarch's authoritative history, "On Sparta." This movie simultaneously romanticizes their political idealism and underplays the brutal nature of their culture.
RIP to all the people who've heard "THIS IS SPARTA!!!" before getting kicked in their chest because of this movie 🎥🍿
Devin was a Spartan in a past life 😂
The actor that's telling the story is the same actor that played the priest like character in the Hugh Jackman movie Van Helsing and the actor that pledge his loyalty and life to the king at the gathering has played young Magneto in the X-Men movies.
when leonidis said "NOW" and it went silent and then the change , that was cold. also liked that the king wasnt the only person who said "push!" and even the king followed the order.
I knew Devin was going to be in perfect agreement with all the military aspects of this
The Spartan shield is called "Oplon" which in Greek means "Weapon"
Spartan shields were used both defensively and offensively
Leonidas is the most awesome 60-year-old, wouldn’t you agree? 😎
The statement ".. tonight we dine in HELL !!" while dramatic, is slightly inaccurate. What was actually meant, considering Hellenic cosmology, was "... tonight we dine in Hades" .. i.e. the Underworld - where everyone ends up. It wasn't the Hell run by Lucifer/Satan.
True 👍
Hades is in Greek mythology, the God of death and king of underworld. So the correct statement is " tonight we dine in Hades"
Spartan women had rights & freedoms that no other Greek women had. The first woman to compete in the Olympics was a Spartan, & she won numerous games. Historian Bettany Hughes has several interesting documentaries about the Spartans, from beginning to end.
The part they don’t show you is that the Spartans did more than train their boys how to fight. Some creepy uncle stuff happened and it was common.
How does Devin look more yolked?😂 Looking strong, mate 👍 Cheers guys
The queen in this movie is cersei from game of thrones
Man man, you're looking massive lets go! great video, love you both so much!
geez you are looking stacked my guy. I wish I could keep that motivation. Nice video!
This a new channel? Im subscribed to both! Love your vids!!! Keep it up!!!
one of my favorites!!!
It was sooo good
you did not explain her the cycle .. strong men - strong society - strong mothers -> strong real men
This is what it means to be a Spartan, and what we stand for - No Retreat, No Surrender! #SPARTAN4LIFE
19:00 anybody else get(pre-sober) Steve-o vibes from this dude??
Im Greek...those was my ancestors and im proud for them!!! but some mistakes of the movie....first of all the mother of the warrior give his shield and not the wife and say to him "ΤΑΝ Η ΕΠΙ ΤΑΣ" means "Come WITH your shield like a winner or ON IT like dead". Ephialtes it was not a Spartan monster but a local sheperd.Leonidas didnt die last one....
Y’all gotta see part 2 !
Let's start from the fact that the movie is taken from a comic book...of course the Spartans were trained from the age of 7 and finished their training at 18...and for their whole life they were soldiers...of course they didn't wear a tunic and an underwear but complete armour...they were considered the best fighters in the world...with weapons very contemporary in relation to the Persians' mats and talin clothes...their formation was called phalanx and was considered the armored of the time...later it evolved from the Macedonian Greeks and the Romans...Sparta was always ruled by two kings...when one was fighting...the other was ruling...they were forbidden to take part in war for the duration of the Karneas...each Spartan was followed by his helot slave who was also fighting... in the battle of Thermopylae no horses or other animals were used due to the narrowness of the passage... until Leonidas came into contact with Xerxes... in general the movie moved in emotional contexts and not in reality... the oracle said that in order to save Sparta and Greece... its king had to be sacrificed...when information arrived that the Persians with the help of Ephialtes were encircling the Greeks...Leonidas gave the order to leave for their cities and they were left alone to face the Persians....only 1100 Thespians refused...well in total in the end there were 1700 Pochemists who sacrificed themselves...two phrases are known..."return with the shield or on it"...since that is how they honored the dead...and...then take...where means come and get it if you dare....thanks
Women were highly respected in Spartan society by Spartan men
More than ANY other Greek state of that time
They had more rights and were treated a lot better than women of Athens
They had education and also participated in athletic events a thing unheard of in ancient Greece
Their duties were as difficult because they were responsible of bringing up tough warrior men
they also had to be both well educated and physically strong as they trained in Javelin throwing
First time watching u guys n I love ur energy already 🔥🔥. Enjoying it from Dubai
Thank you!!
Although I did enjoy watching the movie🎥300 in the Theater when it came out, I did understand that the movie maker's took a lot of liberties with the actual facts of the history of Leonidas, Xerxes and the actual battle of Thermopolyie!🏛 Actually it was Xerxes, as a young Prince, that had to fight a Lion🦁 in a cell with a Spear, in order to pass his Manhood test to become a King of Persia! Leonidas became the King of Sparta by marrying the Kings daughter! Also the brave, fierce 300 Spartans were only able to make their legendary and glorious last stand at Thermopolyie, because of the success and ingenuity of the Greek Navel Commander Themystacles, who through his navel victories over the Persians, allowed for Leonidas and his 300 Spartans to amass at Thermopolyie without Persian blockades enroute!
Story is kinda told wrong but it does do one important thing really good we remember them and the legend lives on
WHAT I WOULD GIVE TO WATCH THIS IN A THEATER OMG
Love this reaction video brother now you guys have to watch Meet the Spartans so funny
-How tall he is?
-Tall as sh*t
"Persian, come and get them!!"
I’m less than 4 minutes into this reaction and if his hype is this high, this early, I’m in for quite the treat of a reaction haha!
*,,Remember us."* This simple wish sure came true, because the world still remembers Leonidas and his 300. There are kings, and then there's a Spartan king.
The real story of the 300 is every bit as interesting and exciting to hear or watch as this exaggerated tell but this was a spectacular movie
She stabs him in the gut because thats the most painful spot to get stabbed in. She deliberately did it so make him suffer as he made her previously.
im subscribe because i love your videos
AWESOME Reaction
This is Spartaaaaaaaaaaaa..... I love this movie so much
First time I've watched Devin G outside of his solo channel and he be rockin that clean shave.
The cast trained on a secret diet and workout for a year before shooting began.
I bet!! Super impressive physiques
Greek word for nightmare is Ephialtes.
I also advise you to watch the TV series Spartacus Gods of the Arena. Spartacus is Blood and sand. Spartacus is Revenge. Spartacus is the war of the damned.
The army of Greece against Xerxes and his Persians was 300 Spartans , the guard of Leonidas , 700 Thespians under Demophilos , the number is up to 1000, and 400 Thebians as abducted warning matter to Thebes for treachoring behavior to Greece . That was the standarts. Now , hundmans was travelling with the Spartans. Big size. So 4000 + against millions of Persians . The Immortals of Persians always be 10.000 in number ! Don't forget the 1000 Phockies at the path's wall on Anopea Atrapos ( Upgoing path). Ephialtes by that treatory was beheadead as a treator. The snitch never live in Greece. Gorgo is the queen of my dreams . I feel Leonidas ... she's amazing... a warrior queen . A walkyrie of Greece! Great and superb. DORIAN BROTHERS ARE AMAZING!!!. All actors are amazing ! Awhouuu! Awwhouu! Awwhouuuuuu!❤ Spartans, the tanks of ancient history. You know know that Persians were their bitch!!! Sparatans mothers mojo was " If with that or apone her " If you rrtirn with shield , or uppon the shield!
"This is Sparta!!" 🦵
Should react to “Meet the Spartans“ after this.
Bro you guys are great together
Great movie!!! Best reaction I've seen to it😊
Wow, thank you!
Peter mensah 👍 l'ambassadeur perse du début qui finit dans le puit
I need some extra strong coffee for this one!
Cheers!
Side note….
Devin originally put on a long sleeve,
then thought of reacting to 300….
🤣🤣🤣
