I remember when 300 first came it, it was a blockbuster hit. The line, "...this is Sparta!", is still iconic.
You'd wager the studio was happy to do a sequel, and the director... was some nobody who previously directed a movie no one watched and hasn't directed another movie afterwards?
Did he date Harvey Weinstein or something for a year to pull this off? What's the story here? I, too, wish to direct a blockbuster sequel movie just once and never direct again.
