As much as I wanted to be a part of this film as a sewer, being rejected was not all that bad of a thing. I have more work to show for my efforts as a designer and maker of period clothing.

I will be seeing this film many times in the theater, as I have been a Russell Crowe fan since 1997.

Excellent pictures!!!  I am pirating and saving to my hard drive!  Thanks for posting them! 
I know what my son will be for Halloween next year!!!
I might have to join SCA just to be able to make/wear Medieval costume.
Oh my gosh, Russel Crowe is so HOT in those pics!  (and that comes from the other side of, I'm not really a big fan of his ... )

Not to take anything away from the SCA .  Let it be known that one doesn't have to be a member to make or wear medieval clothing m'lady.
VENI, VIDI, VELCRO! Spelling and grammatical errors are beyond my control, it's the way I'm wired.

True, but I want it to be seen, and not with the strange looks I would earn if I showed up at the grocery store in it.  LOL  Now if I dated a Knight, I could wear it at home, but I'm single, so it would just be wasted to wear it washing dishes ...  ;D 
That's kind of off topic though.  My apologies ... now back to our regularly scheduled forum ...

The new trailer looks good. I think they are trying to stay away from making this looking anything like Errol Flynn's or Kevin Costner's versions. At least Crowe can do a fairly decent English accent! I feel that it will be well worth seeing, and a treat for any of us who have ever donned garb and travelled through time. May have to pull out my English Longbow that I picked up last spring at Scarby and play a little "Robin" myself (in the back yard with haybales playing the Sheriff's baddies).

From a good friend of mine who has seen a rough cut of the film,  says it will be awesome when it comes out this May. I also heard that Russell Crowe is finally getting his Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
