Producer Bryan Singer Tied To Re-Make Of "Excalibur"

you know some movies just don't need to me remade or touched, some are perfect the way they are and others just are not worth remaking. 
 
What's next a remake of   one flew over the cuckoo's nest??????

Ugh. Excalibur is such an awesome epic film and as a King Arthur story does not need to be reamade as an "Excalibur" film. They could have called it any number of things and still just stuck to the main story without directly referencing Boorman's work. Call it Le Morte de Arthur or something.
 
I'm sorry, but it's impossible to remake this film unless they decide to not use modern camera equipment and remake the soft focus style of that movie. Excalibur was not so much about storytelling as it was about mood and look. The acting in it was horrible, but it was that dreamlike quality of the look of the movie that made it what it was. That and the bulky, hyper realistic heavy armor the guys wore.
 
The cherry blossom scene played to Orf's Carmina Burana is one of my all time favorite moments in cinema. The poster for the movie is one of 4 in my house.

"I'm tired of all the re-makes.  I understand remaking films with more money to make a superior version, but seriously, where's the originality?  I guess this one's okay though, seeing as it's a classic tale that could be updated for new generations. "

if he sucked at making superman hes gonna suck at making this movie
hes a bad director .........
except when he did the x-men.

    When word gets out that film maker Bryan Singer is getting involved in a project; chances are that there will be good things to come.   

If this distracts him from making the Battlestar Galactica movie, then I'm all for it!

Ah man, this got my hopes up. I thought it was going to be a Marvel Excalibur movie.
I wish Singer would get back into lower budget independent films for a while. Hollywood seems to be eating at his soul.

They should better remake some people to write for them!

The legend of King Arthur and Excalibur is constantly being told in one form or another, cinematic or otherwise.  The original Excalibur movie however is indeed quite unique with beautiful cinematography as Capt. Cascader pointed out and like him, rank it as one of my all time faves.   
 
I don't know how differently Singer would do the movie, but sad to say I'd probably give it a look only because I am very fond of the whole King Arthur mythos in general.  If Guinevere is hot and appears nekkid, well sign me up, sparky. 

Watch King Arthur with Clive Owen. That'll make you no longer care about whats coming next. I'm a big fan of this lore, and I have a hard time thinking someone is going to make a better film.

i'm tired of these remake's, they are almost never as good as the old ones. 
why can't they just make another decent movie about that sword and king Arthur without it being a remake, i mean the story has been told a million times can't they just stay off the old movies and just make new things! 
i have excalibur on dvd and i wasn't that impressed with it (matter of opinion and taste) i also have merlin (1998) with sam neill and helena bonham carter, i think that one is much better, i love that one, anyone else loved that one better too? i hope they won't remake it ;) 

EXCALIBUR!!!

Bryan sounds like a director, more often then not, can make a good movie

Im not a big Bryan Singer fan...*kanye shrug*
