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 Artemisia, vengeful commander of the Persian navy.

 

Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures present, 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 Artemisia. Lena Headey reprises her starring role from "300" as the Spartan Queen, Gorgo; Hans Matheson ("Clash of the Titans") stars as Aeskylos; David Wenham returns as Dilios, and Rodrigo Santoro stars again as the Persian King, Xerxes.

 

The film is directed by Noam Murro, from a screenplay by Zack Snyder & Kurt Johnstad, based on the graphic novel Xerxes, by Frank Miller. It is produced by Gianni Nunnari, Mark Canton, Zack Snyder, Deborah Snyder and Bernie Goldmann. Thomas Tull, Frank Miller, Stephen Jones and Jon Jashni serve as executive producers.

 

The creative filmmaking team includes director of photography Simon Duggan, production designer Patrick Tatopoulos, editor Wyatt Smith and costume designer Alexandra Byrne. The music is composed by Junkie XL.

 

"300: Rise of an Empire" will be distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company. This film is not yet rated.

I am planning to buy a Google Nexus 7 2013 wifi + 4G LTE version from bestbuy and have it shipped to a relative who will be

flying down to India by next month. The bestbuy link for the product is: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/nexus-7-lte-32gb-

unlocked/1846014.p?id=1219065990469&skuId=1846014&st=google%20nexus%207%2032%20gb&cp=1&lp=2&contract_desc=
the product title says: Google - Nexus 7 LTE - 32GB (Unlocked) - Black.
Since I am not very much into gadgets, I need help with a couple of questions based on which I will decide whether to get

the item from USA or buy the 3G variant(at a much higher price) from flipkart:

1> What does unlocked mean?

2> The product features description says:
Embedded 4G LTE mobile broadband technology

Gives you an ultrafast mobile Internet connection. (Wireless service contract required; sold separately. Check with carrier

for coverage area and availability in your area.)
Tablet sold inactivated. Activation done in-store. Carriers Offered: AT&T and Verizon Wireless

Does this mean that if you buy this device from US, you will have to get a US mobile connection necessarily. More

importantly, the question is can I use this device with a India based mobile provider like Vodafone or Airtel?

3> With a 4G LTE enabled device, can I use a standard 3G connecion as offered by most Indian mobile providers?

4> In case, I do not choose to use the mobile connectivity option, I should be able to use the WiFi connection without any

issues?

5> Are there any other known issues that I should be awaare of regarding buying a device from US to be used in India.

Exampe could be maybe getting a compatible charger, etc.

6> How much time does it take to get the it

I got a new ACT broadband in the month of December. It's a 15Mbps 40GB connection.

Around Jan 23rd, I noticed that my internet speed dropped to 512 Kbs. I called customer support and was told that I've used my 40GB download when I challenged this, the rep raised a ticket and told me that I would get a call back with 4 hours. I got a call back after repeated calls and multiple tickets. I was finally told by someone in the tech team that there was a server mismatch because of which my speed dropped. The issue was rectified and I was back to 15Mbps browsing speed. I has the same issue around Jan 27th. I went through the same cycle and was told that there was a server mismatch again.

Seeing what happened in Jan, I kept a tab of how much I downloaded in Feb. My internet speed fell to 512 Kbps on the 26th. Once again I called the customer service and was told I've already crossed the broadband download limit. I found this very strange considering that I had 4 to 5 GB of download balance. In fact according to the customer care rep, I've downloaded more than 40GB. How I downloaded the additional GB's is a mystery, considering that once my broadband speed is 512Kbps, I can only browse and not download anything (this is another complaint I raised with ACT today). I'm waiting for a call back. I don't know if it'll really help because 28th is the last day of the month. If this keeps happening for 3 or 4 days every month, it'll just be a waste of my time and money. I'd rather go with a provider I can trust. 

I had a BSNL broadband connection before this. My biggest regret is giving up that connection to get an ACT connection. I've spent more time with ACT customer care in last 2 months than I spend with BSNL in the 8+ years I've had the connection. I've never been on the phone with them debating my broadband usage. I always got the correct amount of downloads with that connection (BSNL). I wish I had kept that connection till feb end.

Companies such as Sony, Apple, Canon, Nokia and Samsung are planning to clamp down on distribution to sellers in popular online marketplaces and issue customer advisories not to buy from e-commerce portals as they are not authorised trade partners. Such products could even be fake and hence lead to problems with warranty support.
The companies are looking to fight back against what they see as pricing distortions and brand damage inflicted by the discounting marketplaces.

Following in the footsteps of the record-breaking Marvel Studios' release, "Marvel's The Avengers," production on the highly anticipated release, Marvel's "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" has commenced in Los Angeles, California, with production also including locations in Cleveland, Ohio, and Washington D.C. Directing the film is the team of Anthony and Joe Russo ("Welcome to Collinwood") from a screenplay written by Christopher Markus ("Captain America: The First Avenger") & Stephen McFeely ("Captain America: The First Avenger").

"Captain America: The Winter Soldier" will pick-up where "Marvel's The Avengers" left off, as Steve Rogers struggles to embrace his role in the modern world and teams up with Natasha Romanoff, a.k.a. Black Widow, to battle a powerful yet shadowy enemy in present-day Washington, D.C.

Deadline reports that Fox made quick work of replacing their vacant director's chair and will likely be able to keep their July 18th, 2014 release date as a result. Fans should be familiar with Singer's work as he wrote and directed both 2000′s X-Men and 2003′s follow-up, X2. He also turned in the script for Vaughn's X-Men: First Class along with an ensemble of other writers, including Vaughn. We also got confirmation of the title from Singer recently. It follows the 1980s' comic storyline written by Chris Claremont that alternates between a present day battle against the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, and a future timeline where an assassination of a government official has led to Sentinels roaming the land and mutants held prisoner in internment camps.
The cast from the original film is expected to return, including Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy.
