Currently watching Merlin on Netflix, and although a great for all ages tv show (although a bit repetitive), it got me thinking, the story has been told so many ways in so many formats, what is your favorite version of the King Arthur story?

Semi-related, I have always been fascinated by Merlin, and would love an adult, high-budget tv-show version of his and the knights of the round table's adventures. I fear that it would never happen so close to Game Of Thrones being at the precipice of pop culture though.

Once and Future King! Have yet to find the definitive film version of the story. Hated the first 30 minutes of Excalibur and had to bail.

How about Le Morte d'Arthur, Parcival, or Gawain and the Green Knight?




Ahhh, who am I kidding. The right answer is Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

I guess I get my hopes up too much on Arthurian movies, because I'm always disappointed. Kinda like Superhero movies before the MCU.

I hope the new King Arthur is good, but I'm trying to not get my hopes up.

The Once and Future King is awesome. I loved Stephen Lawhead's Pendragon Cycle. Jack White's Camulod Chronicles are also great.

As far as movies go, Clive Owen's King Arthur is probably my favorite.

I enjoyed the Infocom game back in the day.

I loved The Sword in the Stone when I was a kid.

But of course, the correct answer is Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Then you missed the O Fortuna scene
