We don't want to look too whipped on 300, but I'd personally help dry Gerard Butler's ball sweat at the moment. Disgusting? Who's disgusting? Come on, I'd use a towel.
Anywho, the film recently premiered in Berlin (reviews here) and Warner Bros was kind enough to send over some pictures from the event.
300, one of the highlights of the Berlin Film Festival, had its world premiere last night and received a standing ovation in the sold out Berlinale Palast. The film, inspired by the work of graphic novelist Frank Miller, was attended by director Zack Snyder and cast members Gerard Butler (King Leonidas) and Rodrigo Santoro (Xerxes). The screening was interrupted again and again by spontaneous applause and cheers from the 1700 strong audience. Said Zack Snyder: “It was awesome to be at the Berlin Film Festival World Premiere and experience the amazing reaction.”
Congrats to Warner Bros on the film's standing ovation.
300 opens to theatres on March 9th, 2007.
