Fitting that my 40000th post would be all nerdy with this movie.

I absolutely love this movie and it does hold up very well. Great cast, solid performances and some real devotion and respect for the storytelling (plus, some really nice T & A thrown in [just what a young boy needs]).

Little bit of trivia...most of the set designs used in Excalibur had been created for a live-action Lord of the Rings adaptation that Boorman was aiming to make. The more you know...

I wonder how that would've turned out-if he was as passionate about Tolkien as he was Arthurian legend...
