The Sacred Band was Theban. It wasn't formed until about 100 years after the Battle of Plataea.  Their entire reason for existance was to fight to the death against the Spartans.
Anyway...
I haven't been to a movie theatre in a long time. I much prefer stage acting.
I watched LOTR on DVD and thought it sucked, complete butchery of the second best selling book ever written (The Bible being the best selling). The Fellowship of the Ring was pretty good, Two Towers was dissapointing to me.  Return of the King was a complete bust. Visually, they were very good. The sets, creatures, etc. were great; but the story just wasn't accurately portrayed. I'm a big Tolkien fan, so maybe I'm a little biased about that one.
