"American cultural officials thought they could get mental satisfaction by plundering Iran's historic past and insulting this civilization," he said.

"This is not the first time Iran has protested over its portrayal in films made in the West.
There was outrage over the 2004 epic Alexander which showed the Macedonian general easily conquering the Persian Empire."
Haha..that's because Alexander went thru you like a hot knife through butter, and you're little Emperor Darius kept running away like a school girl, throwing women and money at Alexander to make him go away. Deal.

If I was either Frank Miller or Zack Snyder, I''d pleased as punch over this. I mean, how often do you get to walk into a room with a big grin on your face and say, "Dude...I pissed off Iran!"

i am just picking bones..
anywho, the movie was good but didnt think it was historically accurate at all..
but it wasnt the intention anyways
i was pointing out that i dont think iranian know that the movie was based on comic nor that they saw it..
it was a 20 year war from start to finish.. at the end, persians burned the cities down as greeks have done 20 years ago..
after that persians went away

Hey, Iran, meet me at camera 3, also you might want to pull out a pen and paper and take a quick note so we don't have to go through this again...
LIGHTEN THE EFF UP. We're not that smart here in America and pretty much all we care about is money. It is just Hollywood at it's finest...no plot and tons of action and naked people because that is what we want. There is no subversive message about your culture because, to be frank, we don't give a shit about your culture...more than half the people in this country probably don't even know that your country exists let alone be able to point it out on a map. So, do everyone a favor and lighten up and get over it. If it's one thing you take first place on it's holding a grudge...learn to move on.
