If you were to take stills from the movies 300, Troy, and Alexander, you might not know which one was which, even though each film dealt with different eras. 300 was set during the Greco-Persian Wars between Greece and the Persian Empire. Troy was another war movie, this one depicting the battles between Troy and Sparta, two ancient kingdoms.

Alexander portrayed the reign of Alexander the Great, from his peak to his downfall. Though each of these films was set in a different historical period, Troy and Alexander reused a lot of the props from 300. After 300, the swords, shields, armor, and helmets were all slightly modified for historical accuracy and reused for the two subsequent epics.
