Everyone I know who saw it said it sucked, so I never saw it, but it came on tv last night and I watched it and I was like wtf?
Saxon = The original English people afaik who are all pure breeds and don't interbreed. (Normans blah blah)
Now they got the pure breed part right, but they made them all like Norsemen, and had them invading Britain through Hadrian's wall, which is correct but why the fuck do they look like Vikings.
Now the British people in the movie were all the merlin dudes with Finntroll paint (Keira knightingly with Finntroll paint = Hawt.) Who I thought were supposed to be the Saxons? Unless I'm forgetting something and Saxons are from like some other part of England or Britain I dunno. As far as I know Saxons are pure breed English men.
Now hadrian's wall is correct, Saxons taking back their land from Romans is correct, but why the fuck did they make the Saxons fucking Vikings and why did the Saxons fight the English people if Saxons are fucking pure breed English.
I know my history pretty well (2 ap classes), but I've obviously forgotten alot and this confused the hell outta me, I'm wondering if I'm fucked up or if the movie was made by a blithering idiot.
Someone please clear this shit up.
