Title: Any netflix suggestions?
Post by: justsomeguytn on January 05, 2010, 11:54:48 AM
Anyone have any good suggestions for medieval or renaissance themed movies on Netflix (preferably ones I can put on instant Queue)

Elizabeth - any of the Elizabeths ...

Do they have the Tudors?  That just started another run on Showtime and the new season starts in April, it might not be available from Netflix.

Is Joan of Ark considered Medieval?

I think Netflix has a collection of hour long specials about the wives of King Henry VIII.

Happy movie watching!

for some reason the Tudors bored me... i made it 45 minutes into the first ep and turned it off. great jousting scene though... plus there were some nice looking women in there.... maybe i aughta give it another go... hmmm...

My favorite of all time... EXCALIBUR



Also...The Clash of the Titans... a bit pre-renaissance.... but really good and you should see it before the remake comes out which looks AWESOME ! ! !


Monty Python "The Holy Grail" too..... classic

the movie Outlander is good... it's about this guy (Jim Caviezel or how ever his name is spelled...) who crashes down on Earth in ancient Norselands. he helps the Vikings destroy something - i can't remember what 'cause it's been awhile since i saw it. its very good.
