    No GoT or Marvel actors as far as I can tell. So looks pretty good

    Now, a lot of you reading this didn’t see The Last Duel in theaters, where tanked at the box office. But I thought it was incredible. It really is nothing like they marketed as.

    Anyway, I like watching movies about medieval Europeans try and kill one another. So please see both.

    True Blood is the ultimate guilty pleasure show. Yes I know it's dumb af, but I particularly enjoyed all the flashback scenes to civil war and medieval eras.

    It would be great if this movie was actually about King Harold Hardrada of Norway’s days as a mere bodyguard for the Ottoman Sultan in Constantinople.

    Lure those guys in with sexy Viking Skarsgård and trick them into learning about the Islamic Golden Age.
