Question 1:

Did this battle really happen? How could 300 men fight so huge an army (a million strong)?

Question 2:

Did the "God-King" Xerxes really look like the one in the movie? If different, why did the directors make him to be like that?

Question 3:

Did the spartans really wore so little for battle? If not, what did they wear?

Question 4:

Did the Immortals really look like Japanese ninjas? If not, why did the directors want them to look like that?

Question 5:

Was the Spartan King Leonidas the last to die in such a spectacular fashion?
