300: From Page to Screen

300comparison.jpg

Solace in Cinema offers up a great comparison of shots in the trailer to Frank Miller’s 300 to panels from the original source graphic novel: 300 Comic to Screen Comparison.

See also: Sin City: From Page to Screen for a similar comparison between the film and comic work of Frank Miller’s previous film adapation.

From the looks of things so far, I may like the look of 300 more than Sin City. It’s less cartoonish and “comic-booky”, although it certainly looks no less fantastic — 300 seems to retain the otherworldliness that made Sin City such a rewarding treat to watch.

  • I really didn't care for the Sin City film. I loved the books, but I thought the adaptation was just really kinda ugly. This however looks gorgeous.
  • This movie looks so great, molon labe!
