Arn: Tempelriddaren
Sir William:
I'm lookin forward to Robin Hood as well...I've heard mixed reviews; some loved it (one of my workout partners is an action movie junkie like me and he knows my style when it comes to medieval-themed movies, he suggested I get it, not just watch it so we'll see) and some did not.
I got an email response from one of the sellers on eBay about the new Arn disc (I have the one that's in Swedish w/subtitles) and he explained that it was English, French and Arabic languages in movie, as well as English subtitles if you wanted to use them. I took that to mean that I'd understand the majority of the film.
Also, if you're the type who would boycott something due to the political views of the author/originator...don't look Jan Guillou up. That's all I'll say.
Sir Edward, w/regard to the magical aspects in the original Excalibur...I read Le Morte d'Arthur first, before I'd read any other versions and from what I remember, there were a lot of fantastical events.
I saw another take on the Arthurian Legend in a movie, the Mists of Avalon, an interesting movie that dealt with the myths from the viewpoint of Arthur's sisters and wife. Check it out if you ever get the time.
Sir Wolf:

Yeah, I still need to see that one.
I should clarify-- I don't mind magic and fantastical events in the Arthurian stories in general. It's when it's overdone to the point of being cheesy that I have a problem. :)
Sir Wolf:
i saw that one (mists) it was ok but i remember it being very female "anti-male" repressive type hehe
