I LOVE this music and own a VHS of the movie Excalibur. Simply put, to me it is magic! I can't imagine a better version, but since I haven't seen it I don't know; It could be even better. I look forward to it. Definitely in my top 5 movies of all times. I don't care if anyone else likes it, as long as I can still watch and listen to it.
I watched this movie for the first time last night. I was 1.5 years old when it came out. It was an awesome movie. Like an opera...sure there were some slow parts that were a little corny. But very well done
One of the greatest movies ever. Just saw a clip from another King Arthur movie or serious. It doesn't compare to this masterpiece at all. This is a classic and one of my favorite movies of all time.
This movie was my first contact with the arthurian legend when I was a child and set a never ending lust for it. Brilliant movie! Thanks for the video it gave me goosebumps!
I am going to show this movie to my kids and I am only 23 now and not planing on any kids lately...Imagine the face of kids in 2025 ( I guess ) with all fancy special effects in that time XD PURE EPIC CLASSIC MOVIE...o yea and great video man XD
All around a classic and easy to see why it would be some folks fav, great movie. The song though... Epicness 5000 (I totaly would have named it that too.).
Nice montage, but the original sequence from the movie was good too! I had a laser disc of this movie, but since my last move, my laser disc player and discs are all packed up.
I love "O Fortuna"! I wish somebody would do a video with "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" with "O Fortuna" playing in the background as a dual tribute/parody to both "Excalibur" and "The Holy Grail", lol
This movie is AMAZING. I cant stand to watch old movie (mostly before the 90's) but this movie is better than most movies nowadays. They will never make a midievil movie that compares to this. Braveheart came close but this is better than braveheart,
@Cannibalizer13 Yes, the full plate armor was only used in the late Middle Ages indeed. Keep in mind, though, that "Excalibur" did not aim to be an historical (transition Late Antiquity - Early Middle Ages) approach to the Arthurian tales (which was tried for the 1st time with "King Arthur", in 2004), but instead reflects the perception of those tales in one of the authors who wrote about it: Thomas Mallory and his "Le Morte d'Arthur". And Mallory was a late medieval writer (15th century).
Beautiful move! I think that also try to tell us that we have to find the way of GOD! The movie has got wonderful music also! Really good work! That is real: Man is a wonderful thing who has been created by God!
+Keith Chircop Thanks! Oh wow, it's only 240p? That's probably how I exported it from iMovie (lol). I'll have to check my external hard drives to see if there's a better quality version.
@MrTrooper20 Superb movie, unequalled IMHO by any of the other Arthurian movies... ...East Coast by the way, a good half of footage shot in & around Wicklow, Eire - the backyard of John Boorman. They have an "Excalibur drive" which takes in a few of the locations.
가슴이 뛴다. 최고의 사운드트랙!!
After all these years, "Excalibur" is still the greatest filmic retelling of the Arthurian legend and my favorite film.
Thank you for posting.
1000 blessings to the movie and the man that combined this great music to it.

There is nothing more I wish in this world than a high definition version of this video.
Great film, and an excellent bit of editing to a brilliant piece of music. Well done indeed - and they don't make movies like this any more.

In all seriousness this is so much better than the 1981 trailer to the movie. Wow. Going to go search for part 1 now and its 12:30 AM. Well done.
Magnificent imagery & music!
10 people can still look forward to truly seeing this film for the first time.
Mira que hay muchas, pero esta es sin duda la mejor pelicula del rey arturo que se ha rodado hasta el momento.
BSO de 10!!
This is where I first heard "O fortuna", loved the movie and spent the next twenty years finding ORF

My all time favourite movies and great editing for this clip, thanks
I'm just here for the popcorn, and a refreshment.

Excellent film, excellent piece of music and brilliantly edited! Well done!!!
One of my favorites. So Wagnerian, even without the music.
perfect editing w the kettles and axes to the chest
OMG!!!!! I love this!! Freaking masterful! Absolutely perfectly balanced to the music!
You and the land are one...
Great montage!
Excalibur 1981, my favourite filme!!! Nigel Terry, the best King Arthur's actor!!!
still got this on VHS. one land, one King.
80's movies were awesome. Let's see, the original Batman movies, Rambo, Star Wars, Excalibur, and the list goes on.
"Guards, KNIGHTS, Squires ;prepare for battle!"
One of the all time classics films. my top 5
Beautiful!!!
This movie and the Arthurian Legends inspired me to write a book about the return of Arthur in modern times.
All around a classic and easy to see why it would be some folks fav, great movie. The song though... Epicness 5000 (I totaly would have named it that too.).
Wonderful.
top film. loved it as a kid
my all time favorite film!!!
Thx for the compositor name in description
Classic movie. I still have the VHS. Love Morgana-hot little tramp.
Nice montage, but the original sequence from the movie was good too! I had a laser disc of this movie, but since my last move, my laser disc player and discs are all packed up.
Greatest King Arthur Movie EVER! Can't wait to see what Stars channel does with Camelot

"Behold! The Sword of Power! Excalibur! Forged when the world was young, and bird and beast and flower were one with man, and death was but a dream!"
Thanks!
You're welcome. My last account was suspended and I figured people might wonder where the video went :)
love this music
THIS IS HEAVY METAL MUSIC IN THE TRUE SENSE.
Classic film I have the DVD.
This movie is AMAZING. I cant stand to watch old movie (mostly before the 90's) but this movie is better than most movies nowadays. They will never make a midievil movie that compares to this. Braveheart came close but this is better than braveheart,
@englishjoe70
Best thing about this movie was the atmosphere. It made you feel like you were really there, that it really happened. All without CGI.
Gr8 Job
great!!!

THIS MOVIE WAS/IS AWESOME.
The best movie and music is fkng powerfull!
This wakes the sleeper in us all
I read the whole original screenplay. Some scenes they decided not to use would have been amazing.
@SrecaSePlaca u right this film of my childhood is my best forever epic !
@SrecaSePlaca Thats why it won awards and nominated for for best cinematography :)
Beautiful move! I think that also try to tell us that we have to find the way of GOD! The movie has got wonderful music also! Really good work! That is real: Man is a wonderful thing who has been created by God!
El Mejor!
These Brits look awesome in their armor!
Hey, you're very welcome. I'm glad you liked it and greatly appreciate your compliments :)
Whoa. Awesome video man. Maybe one day you will be able to upload it again with youtube's improved video quality.
+Keith Chircop Thanks! Oh wow, it's only 240p? That's probably how I exported it from iMovie (lol). I'll have to check my external hard drives to see if there's a better quality version.
best film ever :)
@MrTrooper20 Superb movie, unequalled IMHO by any of the other Arthurian movies...
...East Coast by the way, a good half of footage shot in & around Wicklow, Eire - the backyard of John Boorman. They have an "Excalibur drive" which takes in a few of the locations.
"The Land and the King are One"....
my top all time movie (right next to "Blade Runner")
Can anyone identify the particular orchestra/conductor for this performance? It is EMACULATE!!!
And don't worry, your supermen were always around, nothing beautiful stopped them, all threw out history:~)
its the music they play when players train before the soccer match.......
OLYMPIQUE DE MARSEILLE !
Love this film. Patrick Stewart, Cheri Lunghi et al. Quality
