Im talking like Exodus or Solomon Kane or The Physician, Vikings, Marco Polo

What else is out there for me, Im hungry for epic mystical adventure movies.

One rule I have come to make, if it has Ben Kingsley in it, its usually pretty bloody good.

lawrence of arabia is good. you nearly got my feel. its that magical mythological adventures i love.

some are good, but when they get it wrong they get it really wrong haha.

i didnt particularly like hercules latest attempt. didnt hate it. but felt a little lost.

Do you want films or TV series?

TV,.....Spartacus

Film, try the older generation of fantasy films, Excalibur, krull, even dark crystal...

Or for something retro.. With a hint of Star Wars cliche ... Try starchaser legend of orin...ossum

TV mostly. Watched the 300 prequel. I didnt like 300 so I wasnt expecting too much. Has that whole fake CGI and blood look about it which makes me think cheap. Like the acting though.
