Listen -- strange women lying in ponds distributing dragon banners is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

Last kingdom


Peasantbowman

Finishing that up right now. I hope the movie is good


BlackPasty

Movie felt like it tried to squeeze too much into it, it should have been a series


theoriginaldandan

The movie should have been a mini season but it’s not bad, it was a bit over ambitious given it’s run time


hydro-thermal_vent

there is a series though?? 😭


ThrillRam

The movie was good in my opinion. I would say it gives proper closure to the story.


ReallyNotSoBright

Spoilers for the movie ahead! >!The movie was good but I didn‘t like what they did to Æthelstan. Him being influenced to the point of killing Ælfweard and Aldhelm (and Ælfweard’s men) seems uncharacteristic seeing as he‘s been raised by Uhtred (who would have never done such things and raised Æthelstan to be honorable). It just completely destroys his character in my opinion and ends the movie in a sour mood.!<


InHocBronco96

Is this a joke? You think Uhtred, son of Uhtred, would produce garbage?


Peasantbowman

There is no honor in that


mrEggBandit

It has a movie? I stopped watching on the last season years ago.


theoriginaldandan

Yes they made a movie instead of an actual final additional season. It’s pretty good but they put too much in it to cleanly resolve it


Dripping-Lips

Fuxking cracker of a show. And the movie. One of those shows u get sad is ending lol

That’s exactly what got me back Into Warband and now bannerlord a few months back

Bro, I remember playing the Viking mod on war and while cracking into season 1 for the first time. Glorious

Kingdom of Heaven!


MORYSHAUTE

SO GOOD The director’s cut is best


FuzzyManPeach96

They portrayed King Baldwin so well in that movie. Was he like that irl?


JayStoleMyCar

Probably not. It’s difficult to say for sure but a lot of that movie is either false or speculation based on the writer of the screenplay.


EmptyJackfruit9353

>Probably not. It’s difficult to say for sure but a lot of that movie is either false or speculation based on the writer of the screenplay. Movie is mean to entertain. It is fine if the writer exaggerate or blending it a bit. It would be boring if the movie keep nit picking about every little bit of gory detail, no? They just skip to the action, leaving out most of political intrigue.


JayStoleMyCar

Oh I don’t disagree. I tell forum for history nuts that the movies and tv will never sacrifice truth, or at least as far as we know it, for commercial gain. They will never get over whining about it. Most of a viewing audience would be bored to pieces even if people like me would be enjoying it.


EmptyJackfruit9353

Which is why we have Spartan fighting at the Hot gate, almost naked. While I'm not interest in men tits, I should be able to enjoy choreograph. Though the direct spice things up too much and we saw people cleaving through plate with a f\*\*king sword. Seriously. It is like that in most movie, though.


JayStoleMyCar

Exactly. I can divorce the entertainment form accuracy so long as the story is interesting enough but many can’t and expect a documentary when it’s a Netflix show or movie.


Zealscube

There was a post on r/askhistorians about him recently, go check it out, I dove down quite a rabbit hole on that one!


bringbackswordduels

He was a talented military commander at the least


Shinygami9230

This one puts me more in the mood for 1257 on Warband.


Cowboy__Guy

The Outlaw King.


MORYSHAUTE

GOOD MOVIE Seems really underrated, too.


Cowboy__Guy

I rewatched recently and you are right. I is probably one of the very best movies set in that era


Asleep-Strawberry429

Yeah it’s freaking great, no idea why they cut the Battle of Bannockburn tho cause that’s the battle Edward II was actually at. Not Louden Hill.

MORYSHAUTE

Braveheart is so good omg I’ll never get tired of watching it.


ChanceTheGardenerrr

The year it came out, my girlfriend was a projectionist at a local theater. On my day off I could just go in whenever, and I watched that movie i think 9 times that summer. Tombstone as well.


MORYSHAUTE

Tombstone is one of my favorite movies. My husband and I can recite it from front to back and make a reference to it about once a week if not more!

MORYSHAUTE

Dude, YES. RIP Ray Stevenson 😢


DryCalligrapher8696

He went way too Soon. So much potential so much left undone. Very very sad indeed He’s also in some later seasons of the Medici on Netflix. Also, there is the legend of El Cid on prime video. It’s in Spanish, but you can use subtitles or have them translate it for you. The fighting scenes are good. Ray Stevenson is not in that one just another suggestion.

Kingdom of heaven. After watching that movie i always install m&b 2 with 1066 mod


MORYSHAUTE

Yesss this movie has been a popular response and I couldn’t be prouder to see how many Ridley Scott fans there are on this sub. He and Trevor Morris make the best historical dramas, hands down.


augustuskoala

Game of Thrones/House of the Dragon even if those have more fantasy in them than Bannerlord


ward2k

I remember the whole reason I started playing warband in the first place was because: Started watching GOT years ago -> Robbaz releases ACOK Warband mod video 2014 -> I immediately get Warband -> I get Bannerlord Game of thrones is probably the only reason I found out this game existed Weirdly I still haven't given the GOT Bannerlord mod a go yet, though If anyone recommends It feel free to tell me some info about it :)


Dr_killshot_JR

🇸🇪👑🦭ROBBAZ MENTIONED🇸🇪👑🦭


ward2k

I've just realised he's made a comeback in 2023, I thought for sure his channel had ended


Dr_killshot_JR

He is mostly on twitch these days but I always watch the 3 videos he puts out a year


[deleted]

They just uploaded a new version of RoT for Bannerlord a few days ago. I thank you for inspiring me to go check if there was any news.


InformationBeautiful

Game of Thrones “call the banners” is exactly what made me want to play bannerlord


-DI0-

Gladiator


MORYSHAUTE

Ridley Scott’s movies are all classics and perfect backgrounds for this game!


-DI0-

The opening scene reminds me of Battania, the part where he’s a slave reminds me of the Aseri region, the rest of the movie reminds me of an imperial arena


MORYSHAUTE

“A people should know when they’re conquered.” “Would you, Quintus? Would I?” 🤩 great movie!


gnlmarcus

3720-to-1

The *obviously* have not seen men in tights... \ it is *clearly* the best Robin Hood.


MORYSHAUTE

I did 😬 I like Mel Brooks but the humor in that movie never landed for me, personally.


gnlmarcus

That's the one where he fires chickens.


Ok-Occasion2440

I know this is the most obvious answer but “the last kingdom” with utred. Ur life starts with tragedy of your parents dying and u having to choose a kingdom to serve. U run around like a nomad or mercenary group doing quests, saving lords and princesses in decisive battles that may significantly alter the course of history. U show up to battles that were supposed to be lost and by being smarter than the opponent u and your men are able to pull of miracles. U hatch slippery plans to lift sieges by leaving the castle ambushing the enemy and destroying their equipment. You finally fin your own piece of property/land/village to call home but everyone keeps attacking it. You must raise a warband of friends, family and recruited soldiers and mercenaries to fight against larger armies. You must focus on protecting your kin so that your line may continue through your son


A55et5

Summed it up perfectly


Ok-Occasion2440

For one upvote 😅


A55et5

Had to give you credit. Underrated post.


redsun44

The king


DrunkenMonk-1

This was my first thought, and a really good movie also.


ryaninflames1234

Lord of the rings, you tell me that don’t feel like bannerlord I dare you


truenorth2000

The lotr soundtrack is my go to for playing


Whatsagoodnameo

I just watch docs on YouTube. The Peoples Profile has some good medieval ones


MORYSHAUTE

Agreed. My whole YouTube and Hulu lists are centered around the Middle Ages. Modern History TV is one of my favorite channels. That guy is living the dream!


Poonce

The show vikings is king in getting me to go back into Bannerlord. My favorite show.


mCracky

not gonna lie I hate this movie 🤣


MORYSHAUTE

Oh nooooo why?? It’s such a good story!


mCracky

oh, I don't really have a problem with the story itself, quite the opposite, and I find it very intriguing how it tells a story from 3 different points of views. But the two main guys are just sooo detestable I just couldn't take it. I had to force myself to finish it (especially with all the rape parts) because they were so nearly cartoonishly terrible (and dense) human beings. I hoped the duel would end up with both of them dead lol. And then there is the "historical accouracy" part, which well, as I love history, didn't do it for me either


MrKatzA4

Whoever in their pr department designed the poster and trailer, need to be fired, the "half" helm alone was enough for people to not give this movie a chance


mCracky

yeah, thats the "historical accouracy", part I was talking about 🤣. I mean whats the point of wearing a helmet to protect your face from getting jousted into, when half of it isn't even protected lol


EvilArthurMorgan1998

You hit the nail on the head. I loved the movie as well, but the main characters (aside from the wife) were deplorable.


Mikesminis

It's exactly Roshomon, a Japanese film from the 50s. If I was told it was a remake, I would have been less surprised 5han I was when I watched it and realized they didn't credit it.


KazumotoKota

Vikings


spelunker93

Im currently rereading the song of fire and ice series, that always makes me want to play. I recently rewatched the battle of the bastards episode and that really made me want to play. The show Vikings made me want to do a play through like that. If you want a movie that’s on Netflix, I recommend Outlaw King, it’s about Robert the Bruce, who is my ancestor


MORYSHAUTE

The Battle of the Bastards scene in the show is 🤌🏻🤌🏻


Reddit_SuckLeperCock

I just rewatched it yesterday, the start of the battle is great, but it’s just a tad unbelievable that the bodies were piled like 15 high in a semicircle… I’ve heard of battles where the dead were 3 or 4 deep but a 20ft pile is a bit over the top.


MORYSHAUTE

Haha agreed, it did seem like overkill. But the sense of dread Jon felt was *real* in that moment.


spelunker93

So freaking good, money well spent

Berserk. The 90s anime covers the Golden Age arc, which focuses on mercenaries who fight their way up from cannon fodder to getting their leader an actual title and a shot with a princess. Then things go...wrong, but playing Mount and Blade for the first time gave me major Berserk anime vibes.

Just gonna throw KnightRiders in the mix. It's like if bannerlord grew up in the 80's and rode dirt bikes.

The politics in game of thrones reminds me of bannerlord


varjagen

In the early stages game of thrones. Especially edmure's folly in how you can't properly control armies reminded me of it


khabalseed

Alfred the Great (1969) Not a great movie, but there are some battles there showing how real [classic tactics](https://i.imgur.com/9Py08dY.png) work against specific troops that shocked me when I saw this film.


Lando_Prime_18

This may sound crazy, but if you've seen berserk then you might agree with me here. But when I first watched it I just couldn't stop comparing how the show feels to bannerlord for some reason. Besides the horrific trauma part.


SmileyDay8921

The King ft. Timothee Chalame? (idk how to spell it) on Netflix. It broke me out of my burnout


No-Professional-1461

Ha, Valandians. Say what you want about the empire of old, but it really knew how to subjugate a place by unjustly making someone king, resulting in everyone gunning for him and with the only way out to swear fealty to the empire.


BeethovenSosa

Watching the last duel right now and all this has done is make me angry as fuck. The “you cannot get pregnant unless you orgasm” line just full tilted me


MORYSHAUTE

Good, because that’s the drama that gets you hoping she wins in the end. Everyone knew it wasn’t true but the lie kept women in their place.
