Agincourt the movie

Sir William:
That'll work, lets do it fellas, I'm all in for armoring up for the premier!  This is kinda fortuitous...my 14th-15th C personae is based on a particular character in this book, wow, I'm stoked man!!!!

Speaking of awesome books being put onscreen, anyone have a chance to catch Pillars of the Earth?  Hmm...time to hit the Library section.  :)

Sir Wolf:
i watched teh first 2 "free" episodes and was kinda "eh" about it. i'm sure if i knew more about what they were trying to do i would paid better attention then trying to watch before bedtime

Sir William:
I would suggest reading the book...then the show will make sense.  For continuity's sake, they melded some of the characters from the book into a composite for the show...wasn't a bad thing as I thought it worked well. 

I believe they have the right idea...an epic book like that really couldn't be done true justice in a 2 hour format...8 hour format gave them a lot more 'real estate' to work with in terms of getting the material into the series.  It is a good deal more dramatic than say, Spartacus, but definitely worth watching.
