This movie is so fricking good, I'm going to rewatch it now because of this thread. I saw it for the first time in 9th grade English literature and I was mesmerized. Everybody has mentioned all the great parts but one thing for me was the dubbing. I think the whole movie is dubbed and usually I'd hate that but it added to the eerie quality of it and actually made it better. It's definitely the definitive King Arthur movie/TV for me

Loved the nod in Ready Player One when they used that line. So damn perfect!

Don’t ask me why
But from time to time in a British accent
I’ll blurt out to my wife and kids
“Arthur…where’s Kay’s sword?”

I have been waiting for this to hit a streaming site for some time. Just FYI, it is on Kanopy as of June 1

The only time I've ever walked out of a movie.
No didn't walk OUT of Excalibur, I walked out of something else that I don't even recall and jumped into another adjoining theater just as the lights were going down for Excalibur.
I stayed through a second showing

Percival finding the Grail is the best sequence in the film.

One of the greats. And it can never be remade the same way because much of the allure IMO comes from that otherworldly late 70s/early 80s style and production.
