## Resource

Evil Saxon Stellen Skarsgard Voice "...Arthurrrrr..." It's a Solo Micko episode today as Colin talks through three of his favorite King Arthur movies. He starts by shatting on Tim for turning into the Timestamp Police (a minute or so in), then apologizes to all the King Arthur movies he won't be talking about (right after that), before jumping into the meat and taters of the episode: Excalibur (like 5 or 10 minutes in) the John Boorman directed epic from 1981 and how well it holds up. First Knight (after Excalibur, probably around the 20 minute mark?) and how it had Colin's Partner yelling "is that his real hair?!?" Finally, King Arthur (near the end maybe like 30 minutes or so, who cares?) from 2004 directed by Antoine Fuqua who has directed all three of Tim's favorite The Equalizer movies. Is this the best assembled collection of knights since Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights? Listen to find out! Apologies for my audio. I recorded in the great hall where the round table is and it has terrible soundproofing. This episode includes AI-generated content.
