For what it was, it was very entertaining. I would watch it again.
If you ignore everything you know about the Robin Hood fable and the films that have gone before....and the time it was set and the place....literally this is just it’s own film, own story, own logic and everything.
It’s got action, rivalry, pain, drama, love, horse riding, bit of violence, fire, explosions, castles....etc...and a bit of a bizarre mix of medieval England, Italy and China thrown into the mix with some SS Nazi stuff and Iraqi war/PTSD....it’s totally bizarre!!
Thanks! Ah yes, it was LaStrange....was it their house that was Ravenclaw? I think there was ravens somewhere mentioned lol
Thanks!
Yes, agree, that’s what I mean.
Oh thank you... I’ve just looked this up and no, it actually wasn’t the film you suggested...although it sounds bizarre and hilarious! Thanks though!
I didn’t know what to expect really. I think I enjoyed it, but it was very weird on many levels!
As Elias had bull genes in him he was obviously from the start finding the actual bull a rival. That became more obvious with him looking at it and saying things about it. I think he finally decided to kill the bull because it had become too much for him, I’d like to think that he then went on a bit of a spree with the chickens ‘like a bull in a China shop’, rather than have intercourse with them, but I think the later is probably true, given that he was overly sexual and didn’t get a woman like the other men.....and also that he is sitting with one at the end, as someone else has commented on.
A man could not rape a bull to death. For one, Elias would probably need a ladder to get up to the bull in order to penetrate him. If he was alternately stimulating the bull, I don’t think the bull would die from that either. Both methods would be dangerous more for the man! It is clear, again as someone else has commented, that the bull is laid out dead with blood near his throat, which indicates a violently bloody death for the bull at the man’s hands. I also don’t think, even if Elias is so sexually frustrated, that he would try to rape the bull, which he would see as a rival. Bulls fight, not rape each other.
Thanks 😊
Yes he was good in Lost City. He can act!
Thanks for your reply.
I didn’t mean that sex was a taboo I just mean the actual word. Perhaps it is a misconception in my head that it seems quite a modern word. Lie with I have just as an example. There are lots of different ways to say ‘have sex’. Perhaps it would have seemed better for me for them to say the F word, I don’t know. Just my opinion for that episode. The main thing is that I don’t recall any other episode using the word so much, even though there can be a lot of sex in episodes!!
I completely agree with the use and portrayal of sex and fertility and erect penises and all that in worship and iconography. Again, that was not an issue for me, but thanks for the time to bring it up.
:-)
Agree!
Found it on Netflix, or should I say it was recommended by Netflix because we had watched Being Human and the Job Lot which both star Tovey.
We couldn’t get to the end of series one episode three!
We both just found it boring and there was nothing and nobody to keep us watching it.
Steve was the only character that was remotely likeable but everyone else was horrible to watch and we felt nothing for them at all. We especially didn’t like Steve’s girlfriend’s character at all.
