Hey 1020. What are you guys up to tonight?
The FRIST (art museum on Broadway) is showing the movie, 300 *for free* in their auditorium. These film nights are actually really nice. There's brown-bagged popcorn you can pick up at the door (for free) and wine/beer/soda for sale in the museum cafe. You can take drinks into the auditorium with you. (I don't recommend kegs, however. Be respectful. :)
**Be there tonight at 7:00 pm, tell me about it on the blog, and get an [A] added to your blog grade.
My buddy Paul Young (director of film studies at Vanderbilt) will be introducing the film at 7:00pm sharp, so don't miss this.
This is a Zack Snyder movie based on the graphic novel by Frank Miller. More wild battles, more ancient Greeks, another wicked cool hero, and SICK cinematography... Some of you may like this more than Gladiator. I'm curious. See the link below for more information about tonight's event.

If you don't get a chance to see the movie tonight, there's another chance to get some extra credit TOMORROW (Saturday). The FRIST currently has a hero-themed exhibition up called, "Mortals and Myths in Ancient Greece." In the spirit of our latest Gladiator assignment, check out this exhibit sometime this week(end) if you get a chance. Even if you just see one interesting thing, tell us about it, (or about your overall experience of the exhibit/Frist) on the blog. Below is a link to that exhibit.

Below is just a quiz to see what Greek mythological character you are most like....
(C'mon. Everybody secretly loves these things. :)

Will we get a chance for more extra credit besides the one attached to Assignment Two? I wasn't even in Tennessee. I was 6 hours away so I couldn't have possibly done it.
