    Final Trailer for '300: Rise of an Empire'

    I have a feeling this is going to be one of those films that's going to do really good at the box office, but not as great had it come out about 4 years ago.

    Way back in 2007, 300 was pretty damn popular.  I remember seeing it in theaters and everyone I knew talking about it.  Even up until 2010, I say the film was in it's peak in terms of popularity as most who hadn't seen it in theaters discovered it on the home video market.

    But here we are though, SEVEN years after the original film hit and it's foolish to think it's sequel will be as big as its predecessor.

    They waited too long, period, but the film still looks pretty damn good.

    Check it out below:

    Based on Frank Miller’s latest graphic novel Xerxes, and told in the breathtaking visual style of the blockbuster “300,” this new chapter of the epic saga takes the action to a fresh battlefield—on the sea—as Greek general Themistokles attempts to unite all of Greece by leading the charge that will change the course of the war.

    “300: Rise of an Empire” pits Themistokles against the massive invading Persian forces led by mortal-turned-god Xerxes, and Artemesia, vengeful commander of the Persian navy.

    Warner Bros. Picture presents, in association with Legendary Pictures, a Cruel and Unusual Films/Mark Canton/Gianni Nunnari Production, “300: Rise of an Empire.” The action adventure stars Sullivan Stapleton (“Gangster Squad”) as Themistokles and Eva Green (“Dark Shadows,” “Casino Royale”) as Artemesia. Lena Headey reprises her starring role from “300″ as the Spartan Queen, Gorgo; Hans Matheson (“Clash of the Titans”) stars as Aeskylos; and Rodrigo Santoro stars again as the Persian King, Xerxes.

    300: Rise of an Empire opens March 7th.
