Excalibur

I was either given, or I bought from the book fair, a graphic novel about King Arthur when I fairly young. I've read it probably close to a hundred times. I love it, and it helped me with this movie. The pacing isn't the best here and I think it had too much about the "creation" of Arthur, and should have gotten to his story quicker. However, I loved how this movie looked. All the sets and locations were beautiful with so much color. The armor looks so cool. Merlin is the goofiest guy ever. Every line was hilarious. Nigel Terry (Arthur) reminded me a lot of Hugh Grant for some reason. Liam Neeson, Patrick Stewart, and Helen Mirren were nice surprises to the cast. Overall a great looking movie with some pacing and editing issues.
