I saw a preview of it and i think it looks promising.Anyone hear when it is being released?

<font color=skyblue>The link that Jaradu provided in the first post takes you to the movie's homepage, which says that July 7th is the release date...though the movie has not yet been rated. They must be debating over PG-13 or R for violence. </font>

i saw a preview in the theatres, it looked pretty sweet, more combat and a darker theme than most Arthur movies. Also, it looked as if Lancelot was wielding 2 swords at once.

I couldn't get the trailer to play (crashed my browser for some reason), but I see Bruckheimer's name attached to it. I'll definitely wait until it's out a week or two before I see it (to get plenty of information about it). I still don't trust the guy after Pearl Harbor.

Looks execellent, I like the more elabarate battle scenes and magic and weapons as well as wardobe and what not, but that is all because they have to compete with LOTR. Same with troy, i belive all movies now such as Arthur and Troy and others of the Fantasy genre are going to be compared to ROTK and Pellenor feilds.

It purports to be the "true story" but I am dubious. According to a bit o' research I've done, full plate armor and castles did not exist during Arthur's time. In fact, and please -- please -- correct me if I'm wrong, but the real Camelot would have had to have been a Moote and Bailey fortress.

Really? Wasn't he supposed to be a Roman Noble?
