After seeing the trailer for Troy in this post-LOTR cinematic era we live in, I was expecting to be blown away yet again by this one. But watching it...kind of gave me a "Timeline" vibe. Nothing particularly impressive. At all. Oh well. We'll just have to see.

The public laps up everything Bruckenheimer does anyway...

 

[Kai Lord]

True but most Bruckheimer productions maintain a certain level of visual flare, whether it be Pirates of the Carribean or Gone in 60 Seconds. King Arthur just doesn't seem to have it for whatever reason. That at least should have come across in the trailer.

My thought after seeing the trailer was **Oh sigh**

Trying to look Post-Roman, but not really making it (the armour is far too early for that), I don't get Guenivere in a leather bikini and blue paint, far too many flaming arrows/catapults/whathaveyou to be even vaguely realistic. The problem with this film is it seems to be trying to have it both ways -- historical, yet fictional.

In the end, it will probably be popular, but the thought of that just gets under my skin.

**shudder**

I'm not convinced that the movie will be bad. The first X-Men movie had a horrible trailer, but it turned out to be surprisingly good.

Hopefully it won't be another Timeline (which felt like a TNT Original Movie that found its way into theaters somehow).

I didn't get a good or bad vibe from the trailer. My feeling was more of a "still have to see about this one."

Jerry B's association with the film doesn't worry me at all. It's "from the Director of Training Day that has me leary. That film was very overrated and it's sad that work is what got Denzel his second little gold man.

The trailer was interesting but I was waiting for the "coming soon to the History Channel" line. The scenes with Guinevere will be interesting to see since she appears to pick up the bow before she marries Arthur. I wonder if they will have him win her in battle...

I cannot wait for the King Arthur soundtrack.

I'm confused by the trailer-bashing.
My first reaction to the trailer was "and they said there wasnt going to be another LOTR movie"
Cuz it sure looks like theyre going for the exact same kind of feel.

Of course, seeing all these guys in armor trailers really really makes me want a REAL d&d movie with MONSTERS in it. and a small adventuring party, not vast armies...but thats just me.

I'm not very impressed with this trailer, but I am intrigued by the casting choices. Clive Owen as King Arthur? Now that is hardcore.
