Last night, while babysitting, I watched A Knight's Tale.
O.O
Okay, no one warned me about the stupendous amounts of gay in this film. I would've remembered something like that.
"Hey, Nny? Watch out for the stupendous amounts of gay. You may wanna wear a hard hat."
Sound familiar? No. 'cos it didn't *happen*. I was completely unprepared for it. SO MUCH GAY. *SO* MUCH.
Apart from that? All the gay, I mean? It's a bad film. Really bad. It does what it does badly. Don't give me "mixing ancient and modern leik wo!" 'cos I will say Romeo and Juliet and probably bite you, too. It attempted to play sweet music on my heartstrings like someone attempting to play the ukulele (or however you spell that damn thing) wearing gardening gloves.
There were, however, redeeming features. These being repeatedlynaked!PaulBettany, and deliciouslyevil!RufusSewell. And since these two are my personal choices for Aziraphael and Crowley, I ended up deciding to buy the film should it ever appear for less than a fiver.

Not a good movie, no, but I do believe that the nekkid Paul Bettany makes up for any and all shortfallings.

And I'm not talking about the good kind of Suck, either. *G*
