Coming off the back of the film Payback, Oscar-winning writer/director Brian Helgeland feared he might be in movie jail. Thus, he got writing, and came up with A Knight's Tale, a film mixing jousting, modern music, Heath Ledger, and a naked Paul Bettany. It took months to shoot in Europe. When it came to the music, David Bowie turned up. And then there's the tale of its sequel that never was. King Arthur: Legend Of The Sword meanwhile was to be the first of six films, as originally pitched. Guy Ritchie came in to direct, and star Charlie Hunnam would admit that the film they started making wasn't the one they ended up with. Quite the story, though. Includes elephants and David Beckham. Tales of both are told in this episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
It's an episode foretold in legend. This week, we unite the heroes of the Frank & Sense podcast realm and bring Mitch Lerner into the world of Jakeuary. It's the final week of Jakeuary and we gather around the proverbial round table to discuss the 2017 Guy Ritchie film "King Arthur: Legend of the Sword." We discuss all things King Arthur, including mage towers, English Tarantino, Monty Python, and (of course) Steve Mnuchin. Plus - for the first time on the Frank & Sense podcast, someone cries! Stick around to the end of the episode to figure out who!
Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, power is the theme of King Arthur: Legend of the Sword. Vortigern wants more power and sacrifices everything to get more. Arthur tries to refuse the power that is rightfully his. Both responses do damage. But we find that the struggle has produced character in Arthur that makes him able to handle his strength for good. Join us as we discover God's truth in this movie. About Clay Clay is a teacher, coach, youth worker, popcorn salesman, wannabe farmer who lives in the countryside in Iowa with his wife Megan and 3 kids. He enjoys running, wrestling, fishing, travel and family time. He is on the narrow path, looking for the next first step in his walk with God. Questions How have you pursued power/success/ambition? What was the cost? How have you refused the offer of power that was rightfully yours? What was that impact? How have you experienced growth through conflict? Where can you choose the harder path? When have you felt pinned by life? What is your relationship with risk? Do you need to engage more with it, or slow down from it? What part of you needs to die?

After seeing what Guy Ritchie did with Sherlock Holmes (twice!) it should come as no surprise to learn that his rendition of King Arthur is a hyper-kinetic, irreverent, and frequently insane movie. And boy did a lot of people dislike that combination. But I'm joined by the legendary Vern (yes, @outlawvern himself) to discuss why and how this flick might be, you guessed it, overhated.

Welcome back to Not A Bomb! Yes, we're still donning sandals, wielding swords, and delving into films that flopped at the box office. In this week's episode, we're diving into the work of one of our favorite directors once more: Guy Ritchie. This time, we're exploring his interpretation of the Arthurian legend with the 2017 film King Arthur: Legend of the Sword. And since we're revisiting Guy Ritchie's oeuvre, it's only fitting to welcome Nate back to the show—he previously joined us for our last Guy Ritchie discussion. We completely forgot about this little detail and ended up sounding like complete idiots when it came up. Honestly, feeling lost is pretty much par for the course on this show. So sit back and enjoy the chaos!King Arthur: Legend of the Sword is directed by Guy Ritchie and stars Charlie Hunnam, Astrid Berges-Frisbey, Djimon Hounsou, Aidan Gillen, Jude Law, and Eric BanaNot A Bomb just launched new designs in our Merch store!

Director Guy Ritchie brings his style to the classic myth in King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (2017). With the great cast and fun design, why did it get 30% on Rotten Tomatoes? Jim and A.Ron are here to hash that out. It has bigger elephants than Lord of the Rings, but the story is all over the place. Is this movie made of the stuff of legend?

We love Guy Ritchie's gangster films like Lock Stock, Snatch, etc but how do we feel about his mainstream blockbusters? We watched 2017s King Arthur to find out... Kenny is pushed to his absolute fantasy limits, Duff loves giant elephants and BJ says "Madonna" 26 times. Please enjoy...

Tory Tunnell's original dream was to the Editor for Vogue. In college, she interned at places like The New Yorker and Harper's Bizarre, but she minored in Film, which started a trek to working as a Producer. These days, Tunnell is known for Holy Rollers, My Blind Brother, King Arthur - Legend of the Sword, Underground, Robin Hood, Spinning Out, and now Monarch - Legacy of Monsters. The latest series stars Kurt Russell, Wyatt Russell, Anna Sawai, Anders Holm, Kiersey Clemons, and Ren Watabe. The plot reads, "Set after the battle between Godzilla and the Titans, revealing that monsters are real, follows one family's journey to uncover its buried secrets and a legacy linking them to Monarch.” In this interview, Tory talks about the mechanism of film both in terms of creativity and commerce, jumping in the deep with little to no experience, how she cold called billionaires, misdirects in any career path, being persistent yet not annoying, sticking with a project until it gets made, and how to actually make money in this business. We also mention Tory's husband and producing partner, Joby Harold, which I interviewed back in Episode 348 for Obi-Wan Kenobi and Misha Green, the showrunner for Underground back in Episode 03.

"King Arthur: Legend of the Sword" was undeniably a bold and visually striking reimagining of the Arthurian legend. Ritchie's attempt to infuse his signature style into the fantasy genre was commendable, but the film faltered due to inconsistent pacing, underdeveloped characters, and an overreliance on CGI.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4481500/advertisement

Stephen and Carsten take a look at the latest offerings from UK gangster film expert Guy Ritchie, who has two recent caper titles to his credit: Operation Fortune - Ruse de Guerre and the armoured truck heist movie Wrath of Man. Plus, we take a look at some other corners of his filmography, from his big screen collaboration with ex-wife Madonna, Swept Away, to his Disney adaptation of Aladdin, plus an attempt at a psychological inner crime war in Revolver and his take on ancient British legends with King Arthur: Legend of the Sword. There's even a little Sherlock Homes talk, and our hopes for his upcoming Afghanistan-set rescue story The Covenant. Stephen's twitter:@NS_scooke Carsten's twitter: @FlawInTheIris

In this episode, I talk about one of my favorite films, Excalibur from 1981. This is an epic medieval fantasy film directed, co-written, and produced by John Boorman, that retells the legend of King Arthur and the knights of the Round Table, based loosely on the 15th-century Arthurian romance Le Morte d'Arthur by Thomas Malory. Russell also joins me and tells us a little about the history of the King Arthur Legend.
This week, Gavia and Morgan have fun trying to figure out what the deal is, exactly, with Guy Ritchie's 2017 "King Arthur: Legend of the Sword," a would-be franchise starter that never got off the ground. Does Charlie Hunnum have what it takes to be a leading man? Has Jude Law ever turned in a bad performance? Why does this movie about Arthurian legend feature bare-knuckle boxing? And much more.
This is a brief episode where I share from a paper I wrote for my Masters program (Durham University, U.K.) in Theology, Ministry and Mission (pioneer track) which explores Story as a form of Mission, and the elements that comprise it, via the 2017 Guy Ritchie film, ‘King Arthur: Legend of the Sword'.

King Arthur: Legend of the Sword is a dramatic reimagining of the Arthurian legend. It is also evokes much of its director's hallmark traits. This is Guy Ritchie's take on King Arthur, for better and for worse. King Arthur: Legend of the Sword was a gamble. Budgeted at $175 million and with five sequels planned, WB had franchise desires in mind for it. With that much at stake, it's odd they would butcher the edit of the film. Legend of the Sword, for all its insane visuals and Ritchie flair, is a narrative mess. It zooms from plot point to plot point, replacing essential connective tissue with bizarrely narrated montages. It feels like the movie is playing in 1.5x speed. Couple that with a bland lead (Charlie Hunnam as the titular king) and villain (Jude Law's Vortigern), who's essentially evil because the film requires it, and there's not much to get behind. Hence why it flopped as hard as a movie can and was lambasted by critics. Legend of the Sword didn't even recoup its production budget, grossing just $148.7 million worldwide; and it sits at 31% on Rotten Tomatoes with 278 reviews. Yet, there is still some things to be appreciated. When King Arthur goes full King Arthur, the effects are rather spectacular. That alone is worth the price of admission. Now, sit back, bow to the king of beers—Budweiser—and warg into a giant snake! I, the Thunderous Wizard (@WriterTLK) and Chumpzilla are debating the merits of sacrificing someone to the tentacle lady. This Week's Segments: Introduction/Plot Breakdown – Raised on the streets.

Dracula Dead and Loving It is a typical Mel Brooks movie. It's a spoof of Bram Stoker's Dracula that's light on plot, but full of goofy gags and childish humor. Unfortunately, it lacks the biting wit of most Brooks films. Despite the unending charms of comedy legend Leslie Nielsen, who portrays the titular Count, too many of the jokes simply do not land. Critics tend to agree. At 11% on Rotten Tomatoes with 37 reviews this is far from peak Brooks. Sure, there are subtle hints of his brilliance, but not enough to make it stand out. Hence why it also flopped, grossing a woeful $10.7 million on a budget of $30 million. Now, sit back, satiate your bloodlust with a Dark Truth Imperial Stout from Boulevard Brewing, and don't rely on Renfield! I, the Thunderous Wizard (@WriterTLK), Capt. Cash, Mayor McCheese, and Chumpzilla are attending our first staking! Should we wear raincoats? This Week's Segments: Introduction/Plot Breakdown – Got Blood?

As a kid in England, Joby Harold was obsessed with movies like The Magnificent Seven. The Great Escape. Star Wars. Jaws. These movies inspired him to find his way into Hollywood and “go for it” as a screenwriter. Today, he's known for King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, Army of the Dead, and he's got credits on upcoming films The Flash and Transformers: Rise of the Beasts. For this interview, we discussed the new mini-series, Obi-Wan Kenobi. In this interview, we talk about lanes of genre, Samurai and Western influences in Star Wars, the “Daddening” of Hollywood's most iconic characters, how to write for both studios and filmmakers, and how to build off what you've inherited for tent pole franchises.

It's the Quest we can't Quit. In the early 2010s, Hollywood execs timidly pushed through the mists if Avalon in search of their own Holy Grail -- marketable IP. In the hopes of creating an interlocking universe of superheroic Knights, Warner Bros. and Village Roadshow tapped sorcery skeptic franchise veteran Guy Ritchie to helm the project. Can Guy Ritchie's cockney sensibility transform Romance to a genre fit for kings? Or is King Arthur: Legend of the Sword another cynical cash grab by an industry terrified of new ideas? Joined by Anna Menta (Decider) Caleb and Frank discuss Sherlock Holmes and the drinking habits of David Beckham and Guy Ritchie, and pitch other directors that should take a stab at King Arthur.
