In Response To: Re: Halo 300 Trailer (Calliope)

: 300 is about the first true Spartans on earth, the ancient people of Sparta,
: from whom the name "Spartan" came about, for a breed of
: supersoldiers in the 26th Century. Their battle of Thermopylae, where they
: faced insurmountable odds, is legendary.

: Almost everything in Halo has its origins: SPARTAN coming from the fierce
: people of ancient Sparta, MJOLNIR being the name of the hammer of the
: Norse God of Thunder, etc.

: Personally, I can't wait for the movie. Looks great.

Indeed i am wetting myself in anticipation of both the 300 movie and halo3, For the uninformed take 10minutes and Read this [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparta[/url]

300 spartans and and 4000 regular soldiers held off over 100,000 greek warriors kill upwards of 50,000 (so estimates predict) before they where betray and caught from behind.

The story is true and epic, give all the meaning you need to appreciate 117 and his like within the halo universe.

I really hope that halo3 isnt the last we see of john and whats left of the spartans.
