remix17 and I were discussing this clip from the "300" movie:

"" (Watch on YouTube)

remix17: omg xerxes isn't blinking D=
mississippienne: hes a god, biotch! gods dont blink!
mississippienne: they have slaves to blink for them!!!
remix17: he also has silky smooth skin
remix17: like a baby
mississippienne: yesssss
mississippienne: and hes like 8 feet tall
remix17: he's all "bask in my glow"
mississippienne: the real xerxes really was loony tunes
mississippienne: herodotus, the ancient greek historian, tells of an incident where one of xerxes' bridges was destroyed in a storm
mississippienne: so xerxes had the ocean lashed to punish it
mississippienne: he LASHED THE OCEAN
remix17: ....
remix17: that is brilliant
remix17: xerxes is so zemo
mississippienne: he is!
mississippienne: thats why i love him
mississippienne: hes totally my type
mississippienne: of, uh, fictional character
mississippienne: also, check out how when xerxes goes in for the vaguely gay shoulder rub, leonidas just stands there, as though waiting for a massage
mississippienne: *giggles*
remix17: "mmmm fighting is so tiring..."
remix17: omg he does
remix17: he was all expecting it
mississippienne: "xerxes' jewelry... so sparkly... hypnotized..."
remix17: look at leoni...leo...whoever!
remix17: omg his acting
remix17: so contrived
mississippienne: awwwz
mississippienne: i heart leonidas
mississippienne: hes adorkable. hes this badass warrior king but he jokes and fools around and gets massages from 8-foot-tall god-kings and makes funny faces
mississippienne: and his abs! his pecs! his, ah, presence!
remix17: i like his cape
remix17: it looks really comfy
mississippienne: its his pimp cape
remix17: "ITS HARD OUT HERE FOR SPARTAAAAAAAAA"

I decided against my better judgment to try and watch this clip even though I'm on dial-up. Well, it's loading for the first time, thus stopping and jumping and generally choppy, and I have no idea what's going on, but it's all just hilarious facial expression after hilarious facial expression!
Also, I'm finding Leonidas hot, but not in the "omg hottness!" kind of way. My brain's having trouble possessing that, but when my family gets it on DVD, I'm still totally stealing it and putting it with mine.

It's the beard. It's manly yet reserved, thus quietly erotic.
