AAAAAAAND, one last 300 note: At last week’s Second Life 300 press conference, we managed to ask star Gerard Butler if he would ever get into the kind of shape he did for 300 again. The answer was not unexpected, but saddening all the same:
“I wasn’t in that kind of shape in the first place. I hate to say this, I’d love to say something inspiring, but I actually don’t think I could get into that kind of shape again. It was great for that moment, but I actually over did it and was in a lot of pain for a few months.”
Women all over the world may mourn this news, but at least we go on with the certain knowledge that for one shining moment, one man rose to the highest level his body could achieve, and even if this man truly gave his all, through the miracles of slo-mo, pause buttons and screen captures, the legend of dear, dear Gerard Butler and his 300 muscle groups will live on forever.
Speaking of Second Life, you can visit the 300 area at Silverscreen and look at books, see photos or kick peopleinto a pit while shouting “This is SPARTA!” Internet marketing man Neville Hobson talks about the event here and via comments, you can see how the custom avatars were made by Adam’n'Eve here.
Priceless! Another excellent, thoughtful, report on a terrific ’subject’! A hearty chuckle, knowing sigh, and wink on your latest thoughts on Gerard Butler.
Heidi, as always, I love your reports~and I especially enjoy your dear, dear Gerard Butler posts! Feel free to use the gallery at GALS for your posts, too!

Well written, Heidi! I can hear the Movie Preview Announcer Guy reading it.

For me, it’s ok if his body will never look like that. Main thing is he is healthy. I’ve heard a lot of body builders who suddenly died of a heart attack because of some steroids or whateva. Even if Gerry doesn’t take those, I know he will take care of his health for him, his family and fans. Even if he becomes “simply Gerry”, I still love him for what he is.
