King Arthur Trailer
 

http://movies.yahoo.com/movies/feature/kingarthur.html

My boy, Antoine Fuqua, returns with his retelling of King Arthur. Looks pretty cool. It has Clive Own, Ray Winstone ( my other boy ), Stellan Skarsgard, and Keira Knightley. It looks like LOTR, except not boring and overlong.

That's because it's a trailer, just you wait.

(though LotR was neither boring nor overlong)

Not sure if I should respond to the troll post.... but I will.

Looks interesting, and Keira looks hot. :) Not sure if the armor is right for 300 AD though.

Looks not as exciting and too short compared to LOTR too. ;)

Stellar cast - I'm there!

Looks good.

Lemmie guess the plot ... it'll be almost 3 hours long, opening with a war scene, followed by lots of drawn-out drama that leads to a battle where something bad happens exactly half-way through the movie that leads to more drawn-out drama that leads to a big war scene in the end where someone makes a sacrifice to save everyone so the good guys can win.

Not a flame or anything, it just seems that's how most "period war dramas" end up :)

Wow you can tell how long the movie is by watching a trailer? Nice trolling.

No Paul Walker= No sale.

I'm not sold on Fuqua's abilities yet especially for something of this scale.

Totally agree.

looks good especially considering the producer, I'm looking forward to it

So much for Owen playing Lancelot and Knightley playing Guinevere. Lancelot's gonna have an affair w/ Guinevere, shagging her silly when Author storms in and neuters Lancelot.

It looked promising until I saw the word "Bruckheimer"

Yeah, instead of just promising its sure to be great. Movie looks awesome :)

He hasn't been behind ANYTHING good... except for maybe Pirates of the Carribean...

oh and The Amazing Race, Black Hawk Down, Remember the Titans, The Ref, Top Gun, and Beverly Hills Cop.

Whats up with the Guinevere armor?

Don't forget two CSI shows, Without A Trace and Cold Case.

I would have mentioned them, but I actually don't get to watch a lot of television (night classes), so I haven't seen much of these shows.

I didn't say it was going to be bad, I just think that it will be another run-of-the-mill Bruckheimer film where you check your brain at the door and prepare for a story that has been done to death millions of times before.

I had just hoped that a movie about the Arthur legend could have been a sweeping epic, and not just another action flick.



jeesh, calm down people

I'll go see it just for Knightley. Thats enough for me.

I'm curious to see what role the romans will play in this. Is this going to be a historical type remake close to First Knight or something that is based on le morte de artur?


Correct me if I'm wrong, but the historical aspects don't look to accurate. The armor seems too modern for their time as well as a few other things.

looks good.

Keira :drool:

I'm there...!

Thanks for the link, I'm in.

Ditto.

Looks pretty good. I've been a fan of Clive Owen for a while, so it'll be good to see him in a big leading role like this. And it definitely doesn't hurt that Keira Knightley is in it. I'll certainly check it out when it comes out next summer.
