Moderator Tommy Posted May 9, 2017 Moderator Posted May 9, 2017 Guess he used all his skill points on looks and football.
Devil-Dick Willie Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 I had only seen the trailer, and thought the film looked awful. I have seen all I need to now. What shite
Spike Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 Fuck me, Hollywood is raping Arthur. You know, I'd like to see this mythology shown a little dignity.
Devil-Dick Willie Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 First it was Centurion Clive Owen and Keira Knightleys CGI boobs. Now the legend of Arthur is a 21st century haircut.

It isn't just the ahistorical haircuts that are giving me an ulcer. Look at that beautifully woven white jacket he is wearing, oh and those leather pants. Fucks sake, give the bloke a tunic and a robe and poxy leather footstrappings.
Devil-Dick Willie Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 His immaculately tailored pristine white jacket is unbuttoned to show what a renegade he is. He looks more like he is at a creed concert than early ages middle England. Becks is wearing 'armor' that looks more like it's from the future than the past. How fucking shite is Hollywood now that Monty fucking python can get it more accurate.

Danny Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 I liked Clive Owen's version I'll be honest, great to watch when playing Rome: Total War haha. This does look horrific though, I feel like King Arthur needs a good film...LOTR/GoT style
Harry Posted May 13, 2017 Posted May 13, 2017 Hopefully Netflix start doing movies... thats the only hope i can see of hollywood getting out of its current funk.
Devil-Dick Willie Posted May 14, 2017 Posted May 14, 2017 Netflix do Adam Sandler movies. You will need to look elsewhere for good films.
Harry Posted May 14, 2017 Posted May 14, 2017 Its not the quality of film that's the problem. The problem is the model of cinema takings and a films success being judged based on box office receipts in the opening weekend. That means huge marketing is required to get the word out, hugely increasing costs. And resulting in a very risk averse approach that hugely limits the range and quality of films being made. I think an on demand model that enables word of a film to get out over time with word of mouth playing a larger role will give more original concepts a chance of getting made.

Didn't production spinoffs like Fox Searchlight take care of that kind of problem?
