Everything about this post sucks. Gustave Dores illustrations of don Quixote have become canonical in their own right. To say that don quixote doesn't lend itself to visuals is absurd and can be spoken against by basic matters of history. When we imagine Don Quixote, we imagine Dore's renditions of him.

Nevsky is a pretty good movie. I’d recommend this, though it’s knights are a bit more exotic.

Not really all that suspicious considering Knights irl were usually the unreasonable aggressors, and were more often than not humiliated and blown the fuck out by superior foreign warriors like Baltic pagans, Mamelukes, Turkic peoples, Mongols, or even non-catholic European nations who did not follow knightly culture

On top of my head:
>King Arthur games (lots of them)
>Ultima Series from IV up to VII, some of the games even vowed being a good knight in the mechanic
>Kingom Come Deliverance

>Moonstone: A Hard Days Knight
>Dark Souls (sorta ruined by MC being undead, but not really)

Not that guy but you can start with the Dollar Trilogy since even people who dislike westerns in general tend to like these.

To be fair the entire realm of fantasy worlds are built off the stories of knights. Every MMO essentially lets you play a knight character or their idealized state, the paladin. I’d argue that the elder scrolls stuff is also designed for you to play as knight like character as the default and then the other classes are further adaptations from old literature. Divinity 2, For Honor, Fable franchise all spring to mind. It may not be the standard knights tale thing but I think many games are built off of the arechtype.

It's not like Samurai, Cowboys and Martial Artists were benevolent gods of war in actual history.

You have to go back.

Yes, but you'd think that it would be reflected in other mediums. Even fantasy movies tend to avoid having knights as protagonists.

>Hondo?
lolno.

Best place to start is Stagecoach since it was basically the zenith of everything that the traditional western had built up to at that point. After that it doesn't really matter.

Best classical western directors are John Ford, Howard Hawks, Budd Boetticher, Anthony Mann, Jacques Tourneur, John Sturges, Nicholas Ray, Robert Aldrich and William Wellman, although there are many many more great one-shots from directors who merely dabbled in the genre.

For revisionist westerns there's Monte Hellman, Arthur Penn, Robert Altman and Clint Eastwood.

Not a fan of spaghetti westerns but some of the more renowned filmmakers in the subgenre are Sergio Leone, Sergio Corbucci and Sergio Sollima.

Knights were always a British thing, yet England never made movies. It's their fault.

America made cowboy movies
Japan made samurait movies
England made

>121000000

Nah, but Samurai and Cowboys have had had the advantage of having been romanticized heavily. When people think of Knights, they might think of how the heroic English peasant longbow men defeated them at Agincourt, even if they were the actual aggressor military force. How how the peasant Flemish militia heroically Defeated knights at Golden Spurs.

Samurai were complete chimps too, but Japan praises them to this day, even though they were absolutely disliked in their own time by the non-samurai classes. Just a different cultural mindset I guess.

>Knights were always a British thing
No nigga. They were predominantly a French thing.

Did you think for even a second about how this might not actually support your argument?
By all means, show me a full list of Westerns and then tell me the number of good ones. At a guess I'd put the number of good Westerns at significantly less than 1%
Dores' plates are almost exclusively of Don Quixote himself. I already mentioned that the main characters are appealing visually.

The majority of the novel is the two men travelling the countryside with long stretches of nothing happening and minimal dialogue. When they do encounter other characters the narrator spends a significant amount of text explaining how Don Quixote interprets the setting. In many instances (Camacho and whats-her-face for example) we also have 'tricks' from characters explicitly explained to the audience by the narrator because there is no clean opportunity for exposition in-world and the intent of the scene is ruined if the reader does not already know about the deceptions. None of this makes for good visual storytelling.

>Nah, but Samurai and Cowboys have had had the advantage of having been romanticized heavily
The whole idea of something being "romanticized" comes from chivalry romances which made knights to be more heroic. There is no group in existence more romanticized.
>When people think of Knights, they might think of how the heroic English peasant longbow men defeated them at Agincourt, even if they were the actual aggressor military force. How how the peasant Flemish militia heroically Defeated knights at Golden Spurs.
Then people think of knights they either think about fantasy games or King Arthur.

>By all means, show me a full list of Westerns and then tell me the number of good ones. At a guess I'd put the number of good Westerns at significantly less than 1%
Your argument is completely backwards. "Having much kino" means having many quality movies to watch. It doesn't matter how many bad ones are there. If there are 10,000 coboy movies with only 100 being kino it's still better than having a genre in which there are 100 movies, out of which 10 are great.

Fuck off /pol/cel.

I heavily disagree with your assertion that those defeats come to mind when thinking of knights. Maybe it’s the case for those who are well versed in history but it certainly isn’t a representation of general public perception. Medieval Times is pretty based in that regard, taking my niece and nephew there and seeing the kids reactions to the show/stuff on display was comfy and heartwarming.

This thread reminded me of this King Arthur cartoon I used to watch as a kid, at the time I was really into it. Totally forgot about it. It’s knights with suped up armor and weapons who hang out with Merlin and fight Mad Maxish looking evil knight villains or whatever they would be called. Anyone else ever see this?

Why did Braveheart turn William Wallace from a knight of minor knightly birth who led a Scottish feudal Levy incursion against England, into a peasant born highlander leading people in kilts against the evil, arrogant, and cartoonishly poorly skilled knights of England?

French/British are very similar to each other culturally up until the 1400's-ish to the dismay of both countries. Arthurian stories were written in both countries

>Took more than 700 years for Knights to recapture the whole peninsula

Because jews mad

Has a lot to do with a Norman class ruling over England at the time, no?

I should specify English rather than British and I'm talking about the aristocracy and priestly classes rather than the common man. You can see the cultural crossover in other spheres too, such as early English cookbooks like the Forme of Cury

There's no need to agree with me because it's a self evident fact. You'd know this if you watched the film and knew some basic facts about knighthood.
It's anti knight in the sense it depicts the conflict and the majority of the knights realistically, as mere humans guided by pettiness, personal ambition, etc. instead of the perfect noble men they are supposed to be (Chivalric code of conduct). It also represents some of the Moors as actual human beings instead of worthless infidels (basic Crusade knowledge).
Orlando Bloom's character is the only firm adherent to the code and somewhat represents the Chivalric ideal, but he's a wanted murdered who fled his country and cucks a fellow knight (although an asshole of a knight) with Eva Green.

So I was just calling you out on your ignorance and inability to recognize basic contrasts with other knightly fiction stereotypes.

The problem lies in annoying historians that keep popping and mentioning the missing aspects that almost always are about templars, the pope, and Jews. So instead of going down that road now, it gets shelved until a future date when such people dont seem to exist or cant make big enough waves. Then it gets released and becomes the new truth.

Barbara Tuchman is a great writer and has a good narrative voice in her writing style. She peppers in these little anecdotes of common life here and there to break up the monotony of the chronological story and usually they're fucking hilarious. Its funny how no matter how many centuries or millennia pass, humans remain the same as they ever were. There is a bit about the French King and Wenceslaus IV of Bohemia meeting to squash the Papal Schism. Wenceslaus is a reckless drunk and the French King was perhaps schizophrenic and would go into bouts of raving madness. The courtiers would alert Wenceslaus that the French king was sane for a meeting only for Wenceslaus to show up absolutely shitface drunk. The times that Wenceslaus was sober the French king was screaming at the sky and other deranged shit. Another bit was about an inquisitioner talking to a peasant about evil things and the peasant cuts him off really quick and says "There is three Satans in France, the King, The Pope and The tax man!"

No. Thats hundreds of years away.

They claim it’s anti-knight because it is not a fantasy/male abstraction of honor and chivalry. Their mythology of knighthood is rooted in the spirit of adhering to a lifestyle of the idealized form of a knight. The reality of knights not being this holy divine force makes them seethe because they think it undermines the concept of being a knight. It’s hard for them to empathize with the true nature of man regardless of what he says is his moral compass. It’s not dissimilar to autists who complain that Batman isn’t allowed to ever use a gun or how Superman would never act in a way that would be detrimental to humankind. To them this portrayal of knighthood is inconistent with how they perceive a knight would act. They’ll claim this is post modernism infecting their idealized noble heritage and that it’s a “deconstruction”.

About as much of an argument as

Better argument than

National Review is the most mainstream and accessible fount of consevative thought you commie sperg.

Except the main character acts a perfect knight in literally every way and the only "bad" knights are literally Gi and The red headed guy, and they are literally the bad guys of the story

You can't separate the poetic power of knighthood from heavy Christianity, which gives Hollywood a really hard time. They've tried a few different spins, but it usually falls flat. Guy in armour fighting other people could be kind of interesting, I guess. Guy in armour fighting other people, and the temptation of the devil is kino. Throw in him managing his lands, and you have gold.

as long as it shows the crusaders being the barbaric brutes they were, looting and raping their way across the Eastern Roman Empire to reach the Holy Land and then being butthurt when the Emperor decides to deny them passage through their lands.

Are you retarded? The Templars were forbidden from having children

Oh so you're not an argument

Based Amerimutt

That actually happened though
Multiple times

English culture never forgave knights for having the courage and virtue to side with the House of Stuart during the English Civil War, so I'm not surprised anti-knight sentiment carried over to America.

>If you knew the bare minimum about the Chivalric code or Chivalric literature you wouldn't ask these dumb questions.
This is just a cringe as someone that talks about grorious nippon and bushido.

Damn I can't believe they didn't follow the Geneva Conventions

Retard.

While I don't believe user's claim has any legitimacy, the vow of celibacy only applies after joining the monastic order. A Templar could have children before joining.

Not an argument

is this guy baiting or falseflagging?
hard to tell

How do you argue against a nonargument?
Nevsky features knights losing and knights winning. Try watching the film, it’s pretty good and is certainly kino.

But Bushido and Chivalry were both real, brainlet. Did you read some pop history article that said they weren't and that Game of Thrones is a documentary and all Knights/Samurai/feudal lords were needlessly violent bloodthirsty nutcases who slaughtered the peasants they depended upon for their livelihood for fun? Lmaoing at your life

>demonize
Strongly disagree. I liked the characters more because they had real human motivations. Even the “bad guys” were at some point virtuous but became jaded along the way. Just admit that you are a turbosperg who can’t empathize with parts of the human experience you can’t neatly put into categorical boxes.

LOL. Already off to a great start.

It's literally a propaganda movie made by soviet atheists to demonize Christian German warriors

You are correct for the most part. The general pacing and story of the 97 anime was better than the movies to me, but the fight scenes were generally bad. The animation (or lack thereof) made them boring but there are exceptions.
But the rest was fantastic. The anime captured some of the scenes from the manga way better than the movies did to me. The action is one of the least important things in berserk for me, it’s just guts throwing his sword around for the billionth time, and all memberable fights are due to the story surrounding it, so I don’t consider the lazy animation there to be a deal breaker.
You’re right about the eclipse too though. The fact that the anime left on a cliffhanger was weird. Obviously they couldn’t just throw skull knight in randomly, but they could have had him in earlier. The scene in the movie was epic, exactly what I would want from the skull knight scene in the manga.

It's a propaganda movie made by an atheist who hates Christianity

>This guy disagreed with me? Obviously that means he took the polar opposite stance as me and this strawman should shut him down.
No, user. If you want a chartible discussion on it, sure, but I'm not going to play into your fantasies otherwise.

You’re a butthurt kraut that is seething at decades old soviet propaganda. Do you not understand how stupid you sound?

It’s not even Christian v atheist at all, the Russian knights are clearly portrayed as Christians fighting for their faith too. Go ahead and dismiss a movie without watching it, I’m not the one missing out on the kino choreography.

Y-you're not actually religious are you?

>The film also conveys highly anti-clerical and anti-Catholic messages.[4] The knights' bishop's miter is adorned with swastikas, while religion plays a minor role on the Russian side

Lol

Catholic = Christian now? Are you shitting me?

There was a deliberate attempt made by Eisenstein to tone down Christian imagery on the Russian side while employing all negative Catholic stereotypes when portraying the Crusaders. The film was very much Soviet anti-Nazi propaganda (which is why it was banned during the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact period).

Lol don't tell me you think the Russian soldiers are knights

Because most big movies are made in the US. Cowboys are a part of American culture, knights aren't (plus Westerns) are easier to film. Samurai have a similar place in the Japanese industry.

Besides, most people don't really care for or understand actual medieval chivalric romance. Sure, young adult men may think dudes in plate armor look badass, but there isn't an intuitive cultural understanding of the genre in the way there is with Westerns. How many people in this thread do you think have read de Troyes? I'd wager not many

There were Boyars fighting which had their own code of chivalry. Don’t tell me this suddenly doesn’t count because they have to be Catholic and wear specific armor.

>knights are a religious institution
All you needed was a horse, it's just a title granted by monarchy not exclusively by clerics

Great argument there. Unfortunate you will be missing out on a genuinely good movie, but it’s not my loss.

Unforgiven is the only one you need to watch. Killed the entire genre because nothing will ever be as good and retroactively made everything before it look like shit.

Samurai films are Knight kino too by this logic

>A knight is a man granted an honorary title of knighthood by a monarch, bishop or other political or religious leader for service to the monarch or a Christian church, especially in a military capacity.
No they aren’t.

druzhina/boyars aren't considered knights by Wikipedia just so you know

Thanks for letting me know, not sure how that’s relevant.

this is the only one i can think of that is actually a quality film
