300 director Zack Snyder breaks down the shot that made him want to adapt the comic

, Snyder took a general meeting at producer Gianni Nunnari’s office — and happened to spot acomic on the coffee table. A fan of Frank Miller’s 1998 series, Snyder recalls that the gears started turning when he opened the book to a drawing of an arrow-filled Leonidas making one last “long and loud” roar.

“It’s the same moment in the comic as it is in the film,” he tells EW. “I said, ‘If we can make a movie that looks and feels like this, that would be something special.’ And he responds, ‘Yeah, that would be cool, but I don’t know. How do you do it?’ I was like, ‘Don’t worry about that, I’ll figure it out.

“I really wanted to make sure I got it right,” he says. “I felt like I visually had it; I just didn’t know whether all of the pillars were in place. When I’m watching the film, it’s that shot that stands out to me as the pinnacle. We set a challenge for ourselves, and that shot makes me go, ‘We did it.’”

Jimmy Carter Added To Mount Rushmore After Becoming 5th Former President To Bowl Perfect 300KEYSTONE, SD—Unveiling the updated sculpture in an official ceremony before a crowd of thousands, the National Park Service added former President Jimmy Carter to Mount Rushmore Thursday after he became the fifth former U.S. president to bowl a perfect 300 game. “Today, we honor a man who has cemented his place in history by casting his likeness on our great nation’s largest bowling memorial,” said National Park Service deputy director David Vela, echoing the feelings of shock and joy experienced across the nation after news broke that 95-year-old Carter had achieved the rare feat by bowling a strike in every frame. “It’s been over a century since we last added Theodore Roosevelt’s face to the design. Of course, Bill Clinton was close, but he was disqualified for using bumpers. But Jimmy Carter’s historic game belongs to the ages now, and only time will tell if another American leader can live up to the standard again.” At press time, the National Park Service was making plans to erect a second obelisk near the Washington Monument after President Carter reportedly scored a perfect 10.0 on his gymnastics vault routine.
