Can it be topped?
Nolan Miller
why isnt it more known? its literally a masterpiece
Jordan Cook
wish they had used more than just the same three Wagner pieces over and over though, perfect otherwise
Mason Perez
>King Arthur
>Wagner
What did he mean by this?
Robert Morris
because of the graphic sex & violence?
I'd wager most kids even back then were traumatized by Uther's death & Merlin's imprisonment
Connor Cook
It's relatively well known, but
1) critics claim it has aged like milk;
2) normies find it long and tedious.
Anthony Harris
It's Carl Orff not Wagner. Right?
Luke Sanders
It's both.
Elijah King
They're the same person.
Jordan Smith
It uses Carmina Burana, but the rest is mostly three pieces of Wagner played over and over again... Seigfried's funeral march from Gotterdamerung, the overture to Tristan & Isolde, and the overture to Parsifal.
John Boorman needs to grow young again and just do Der Ring complete
Lucas Moore
>be a filthy liberal

Literally capeshit of its time.
Back to your BvS thread now.
Christian Garcia
I love the way its shot. Very beautiful looking film.
Landon Thomas
For a King Arthur tale? Hell no.
Juan King
at least the new one had cool magic & theme
Levi Rodriguez
>opens with a scene of gigantic elephants wearing pyramid structures that shoot balls of fire
king Arthur was metal as fuck
Benjamin Ramirez
I liked it, too, but for completely different reasons than I liked Excalibur. King Arthur was more like pure fantasy. Excalibur exists in a weird mid-point between fantasy and reality.
Jack Brooks
>Excalibur exists in a weird mid-point between fantasy and reality
It's called low fantasy or sword and sorcery
Robert Myers
It's weird to say this, but I disagree. It's presented in such a way as to make it feel like their world is ours, like magic is more something that once existed but went to sleep. Merlin even says something to that effect.
Technically, you're right. It's low fantasy, but it's like low fantasy set in our own world's past instead of a distinctly different setting.
Jacob Murphy
>but it's like low fantasy set in our own world's past instead of a distinctly different setting.
That's low fantasy
Andrew Miller
Classic
>confirmed
Adam Murphy
it's a very 80's film
Robert Hall
Dragonslayer is in the same vein
Cameron Perry
the actor who played merlin is dead
so is the one who played arthur ;_;
Benjamin Brooks
Yeah. Perhaps the greatest fantasy film ever made. Truly a masterpiece.
Dominic James
And their like shall not be seen again.
Mason Jenkins
I watched it a week ago and i thought the pacing and dialogue was very chaotic.
David Thompson
What's up with all the red and green lighting?
Brayden Bell
Galahad was hot as fuck and had a very nice ass.

Why didn't arthur just give mordred a hug
Logan Gomez
>It's presented in such a way as to make it feel like their world is ours, like magic is more something that once existed but went to sleep
that's literally the King Arthur myth
since actual medieval it's presented as something that 'happened' in the mists of time and of course in the more romantic and chivalric depictions it's a time when men were built more hardy loyal and noble, ladies fair and pure, the sky bluer and grass greener but all that is lost to us now but could one day come again.
Logan Foster
Why can't we have more films about knights and chivalry? Are they too toxic and masculine?
The look on Arthur's face when Lancelot arrives in the final battle is so wonderful. He's so happy to fight alongside his friend one last time.
Jack Wilson
I love that painting desu

>I have often thought that in the hereafter of our lives, when I owe no more to the future and can be just a man, that we may meet, and you will come to me and claim me as yours, and know that I am your husband. It is a dream I have...
