Instantly confronted by the sword’s influence, Arthur is forced to make up his mind. Throwing in with the Resistance and an enigmatic young woman named Guinevere, he must learn to master the sword, face down his demons and unite the people to defeat the tyrant Vortigern — who murdered his parents and stole his crown — and become king.

looks like a cgi crapfest.

Also lol at all the GOT actors: Roose and Littlefinger. Pandering much?

I'm confused, is this like a hodgepodge of Uther and Arthur or something?

Has a big Immortals vibe to it, in my opinion. Which was mostly forgettable minus the sweet Tartarus cage opening scene.

Only thing its going for it is it's a Guy Ritchie film so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt.

I wish he would go back to his roots with Snatch, and Lock/Stock instead of the high budget popcorn films.

Looks like a worse Sherlock to me, complete with slow mo pit fighting, folk-ish music, and Jude Law.

Trailer confused the fuck out of me, but 99% chance I go see it anyway because I'm a sucker for anything Arthurian.

My expectations based on that trailer are pretty low, but I would really like for this to be decent.

Want to like it (have always enjoyed the story of Arthur) and the cast looks good. But, there's just no way they can do the story justice in 2 hours. How much random jumping around between scenes, cutting important bits short in the interest of time, and random bullshit are they going to put in? I hate - hate - the idea of everything being a damn trilogy or series these days, but the "story" could easily span 3 movies and be done well. In just one? Doubt it.

That looks awful. But I'm still going. I figure a Jaeger might show up at some point.
