dejawolf Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 for the history buff, this is probably nothing new, its a documentary about the crusades:http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=0e3XX1YwXxAhttp://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=z1_6NOTEnLAhttp://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=bWdGg5iWp8khttp://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=qXd9jp1CpEohttp://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=p904aH-9UVwhttp://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=434ag6o5ye0http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=RhTxYQF6KOghttp://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=cxsuWlX7dxkhttp://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ReQmJ-Dc0IMhttp://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=SRVa6oHPNkw 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[]_--__[]KITT Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Thx for the vid links dejawolf. I'm too interested in the crusade history. Now I have one book still unfinished over halfway through on the history of the Kingdom of Jerusalem from its beginning to its demise. Very entertaining. I wish somebody make a tv series out of this. Perhaps the cost would be too high for a tv series? I mean reenacting battles would require so many people and costumes and armor and weapons. I know about computer graphical effects but seeing Braveheart is much more immersive than seeing Alexander if you know what I mean.....the battles involve tens of thousand at most. Still a very large number. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dachs Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Then maybe this will be something for you, allthough it is fiction. http://www.arnmovie.com/I have read the books, and I must say, its really good stuff! I sure hope the movie doesn't dissapoint, but I bet its going to be real hard getting those books filmed just right.. Crossing my fingers though! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I would love to see a movie about the fourth crusade. There´s a great book about all eight crusades where most of the politics has been scaled away (rare). It´s called "Crusades" by Soren Wibeck, try to get a copy of it. Then maybe this will be something for you, allthough it is fiction. http://www.arnmovie.com/ Only seen the movie, it covered less of Arns time in Jerusalem then i had hoped for, but still a damn good movie. Althou the end pointed towards a sequel, where i hope more of the crusade is covered. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dachs Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Glad to hear its a good movie! I plan to go see it sometime next weekend.I sure hope they make it a triology, like the books are. I was sort of afraid they would try compressing it all into one movie, that would really be a shame!Come to think of it, theres also a fourth book, about the time after Arn has passed away. Its not really a part of the series though. More like an afterthought by the author, but definitely worth reading. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
