- Adaptation Sequence: Actual events —> unreliable historical document by a man who was taking a break from writing about giant ants —> Movie —> Graphic Novel —> Movie —> Video Game
- Banned in China: This film is banned in Iran because of the rather negative portrayal of Persians in this film (even though by an Unreliable Narrator).
- Beam Me Up, Scotty: Two minor examples:
- There's a good twenty-second pause between the ambassador saying "This is madness!" and Leonidas responding with his famous line. Understandably, people usually omit the long pause when they're quoting the film.
- Leonidas full quote is "Spartans! Ready your breakfast and eat hearty, for tonight we dine IN HELL!", though it's commonly shortened to "Spartans! Tonight we dine in hell!" as it is in the trailer.
- Hey, It's That Guy!: Discounting the main cast, the Persian messenger is Hammond from Dead Space, and Xerxes is, of all characters, Paulo from Lost.
- Speaking of Xerxes, he was the Brazilian voice of Stuart Little.
- Jimmy McNulty as Theron continues with his philandering ways.
- And Stelios is a young Magneto
- Dilios was once known as Faramir.
- Throw It In: The Oracle's words are actually just ad-libbed gibberish by the actress who played her. Zack Snyder was delighted that she worked the word "Carneia" into it.
- The film had an Unreliable Narrator, and fans love it for what it is. If you're curious, though, this article lists every inaccuracy regarding the film's portrayal of Persians.
