I'm going to go to math class, ask the teacher what 150x2 equals, and then retort IT EQUALS AWESOME, FOOL.
That, or start writing "300 > 1,000,000" on the chalkboards.

I remember reading this story when I was young, like 5th or 6th grade. It was one of my favorite stories.
I just can't remember if it was a readers digest story or a book.
Can any of you older players remember reading this story?

I love Hot Fuzz... being that I was stationed in England for a short while and yes I do get it, British Humour that is... Growing up on Benny Hill, Monty Python and the Young Ones...
Not too many other than the Brits would know abou the Young Ones...

Spartan King Leonidas and 300 Spartans fight to the last man against Persian King Xerxes and his massive army of more than one million soldiers. Facing insurmountable odds, the Spartans' sacrifice inspires all of Greece to unite against the Persian invaders. The story is based on the Battle of Thermopylae which took place in 480 BC.
See, if you ever read history while you were growing up in school then you already know the story... All they did was add some snap and pop for the big screen and adapt the famed Battle of Thermopylae from a really good Graphic Novel...
I hope it does well. Most screen adaptions from books tend to be... lacking.

I can see it in Faustus's mind:
Spartan King Faustus and his 300 Last Subscribers fight to the last $9.99 a month against Persian King CCP and his massive army of more than one million well textured polygons. Facing insurmountable odds, the Spartans' sacrifice inspires all of the internet to unite against EvE Online. The story is based on the Battle of Thermopylae which took place in patch version .480.
