It looks a little lame(Especially with the cliche narration) but I dig anything medieval, King Arthurish, Romanish, and with large melee and Bow&Arrow battles. Plus the casting is odd but high quality.

    lol, I was like "lame and cliche? yea, right..." before watching the trailer...

    but afterwards...

    I'm actually fine with that narration in terms of presentation...but everything else is really cliche...

    The romance (seems like there will be that involving arthur's teacher)

    The comedy ( The type "I laugh because I don't want to embarrass you" or "because it's so pathetic"...the comedy seems forced, and doesn't fit in with the serious presentation of the trailer...)

    probably other things too... Geez, every movie is made up of the same compositions nowadays... Was good at first, but now, it's just lame...

    P.S. - I didn't get to see the magic...was there magic? 'cause my internet isn't the best (it's like 1/2 dsl from verizon) so it kept stopping to buffer...

    Looks ok, but with the colossal failure of the last King Arthur movie I think I'll wait to see it on HBO.

    One giant cliche.

     

    "Coming 2008, A giant walking cliche, threatning to destroy all of mankind. Our final hope, a rogue agent and a stripper... blah blah blah"...

    Ive always been a fan of Excalibur (1981 the movie) growing up, even with the bad acting I liked it. The one with Patrick Stewart.

    very cliche, but still a new take, I remember the last king arthur movie, he was from some balkan country... now he's the last caesar? w/e still looks like an action movie, mindless numbing fighting is exactly what I want from a movie

    and what's with the crazy black guy swinging some giant weapon around, does there always have to be one of those?

    Ok, now call me picky but  the female lead is an actress from India.  India was not disovered for 1000 years after this movies time period of around 470.

    If im going to watch factual period time movies i actually want them to be at least partly believable.

    I watched the first King Arthur movie and to be honest it sucked ass, couldn't believe I wasted the money for a movie ticket. I'm surprised they even made a 2nd one, but I'm sure as hell not watching it.

    I think people here are confused, this isn't a King Arthur movie, its about Romulus Augustus.

    Notice the sword in the movie? "Excalibur".  In this movie, Romulus Augustulus = King Arthur. Except he's just a stupid little kid, like Anakin Skywalker in the first Star Wars prequel.

    Looks like a pretty fun movie. As far as entertainment it will probably do just that, entertain people.

    I found the Clive Owen King Arthur to be damn good. I really liked the camera work and the way they portrayed all the key players.

     

    I read about the  Patrick Stewart Excalibur a few weeks back and moved it to the top of Netflix Que. Unfortunately I couldn't get through it in the first sitting and just didn't feel like trying again.
