This thread makes me weep blood and piss myself, which is just embarrassing because I'm at work. Nevertheless...

The movie is 300. You could easily have found that out by looking at the top grossing movies of 2007 (it's number 8 on the list). You could use Google (first result). You could have a memory slightly better than that of a goldfish and just remember that the movie was called 300, as it was inescapable for several months near the beginning of the year (remember all the "This... is.... SPARTA! nonsense that people kept doing? No, of course not, why would you remember something that happened nearly 9 months ago?).

At least it was an easy question.

Sparta was part of ancient Greece. So yes, it was. Thanks for playing.

I was gonna say Troy. 300 also fits though. Main difference being in Troy the city was under siege. In 300 they were defending the passage.

Actually, it sounds more like 400. 300 is not enough.

You got it all wrong.

A sequel to the movie would have to be called 200, or some number less than 300, since the sequel would have to better 300. And what's better than 300 defenders against a massive horde of invaders? Less defenders! And don't forget MORE SHOUTING!!!
