Rationale of fair use for 300 (film)
1. The image is a montage comparison of the same scene as depicted in
 * a screenshot from the film release of 300 (film), originally created by Warner Bros., and intended for wide distribution
 * a capture from a series of panels from the comic book 300 (comics)

2. The screenshot and the comic book panel is of lower resolution than the original film and the comic book (copies made from it will be of inferior quality).

3. No free or public domain images have been located for either the film or the comic book.

4. The screenshot and panel capture does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the film in any way.

5. The screenshot and panel capture is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original film in any way.
