Zack Synder’s incredibly cool looking new movie 300 opens here in American in just a couple of weeks. But the film already had it’s premiere in Germany at the Berlin Film Festival, where according to Warner Brothers, it was met with a standing ovation.

The premiere event was attended by director Zack Snyder and stars Gerard Butler and Rodrigo Santoro. The WB has just sent us great new pics from the 300 red carpet premiere there, showing Santoro, Snyder, and Butler drinking it all in.
