Version 769 ;)

For a trailer, go to;

Edit: Actually, this looks more like another Gladiator movie, rather then the next 'Excaliber'. I like the idea behind this [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

Well, they do mention that it's more of a story of the man King Arthur is based off of, so I wouldn't expect too much of it.

Regardless, another Gladiator movie wouldn't hurt, as long as they don't overdue it.

<font face="Verdana" size="3" color="#00FF00">If you like movies based on Arthur here are some I recommend that I own:
1. Excalibur (This movie was OK but nothing great about it and it certain parts seem slow)
2. Mists of Avalon (This was a great movie done from the perspective of Arthur's half sister I believe)
3. Merlin (One of my favorites from Merlin's perspective)

Mists of Avalon and Merlin are two of my favorites and the two are recent so special effects are far better than Excalibur.

I also own:
Sword of Lancelot (I have no idea what this is about as I have not had time to watch it yet)

This new movie looks really good. It seems they have taken out much of the fantasy and magic. Which very few movies have done yet left Merlin in it as a possible Druid or cleric.

The Mists of Avalon movie didn't even get close to Marion Zimmer Bradley's book. I can't recomend it highly enough. [img]smile.gif[/img] Ees good!

I loved that Excalibur movie. It is one of the few i have seen that actually have costumes, weapons, sets etc. that look real and correct. I also loved the eerieness of like when Uther rode the dragons breath across to bed Arthurs Mother. And the battles seemed realistic as well.
