Cursed (Netflix) first trailer - Frank Miller take on King Arthur... BUT WHAT IF A GIRL PICKS UP THE SWORD?!

[Khanimus]

From the description:

From Frank Miller and Thomas Wheeler, Cursed is a reimagining of the Arthurian legend told from the perspective of Nimue (Katherine Langford). All episodes of Cursed arrive July 17th on Netflix.


Y'know... the twist of "A GIRL HERO?!?!" being the crux of your pitch got a bit condescending a long time ago. But also, Frank Miller so... I guess it might be too much to hope that all the women aren't just called 'whores'.

 

[RROCKMAN]

Is this the Fate stay/night live action adaption?

 

[El Bombastico]

From Frank Miller

Pass. Not supporting that piece of shit in anyway...

 

[Morrigan]

Frank Miller? I'm out

 

[Deleted member 2109]

I'll watch it.

 

[Weebos]

I've seen this in one of my animes.

 

[PlanetSmasher]

Nimue? So...it's a story set in the Arthurian era but with the Lady of the Lake as the protagonist instead of Arthur himself.

Why you gotta be dumb with your marketing blurbs, Netflix?

 

[Mr. Poolman]

"From Frank Miller " is a warning to me.

Hard pass.

 

[Ruprit]

Before she picked up the sword was she a prostitute or does she know anyone that is?

 

[JDSN]

I don't know man, "Wench" doesnt have the same impact as "Whore.

Yooo, glad I'm not the only person that thought that

 

[Mandos]

Disney already did a high school reincarnation version so nothing phases me

 

[mbpm]

*shrug*

Not the most imaginative reimagining.

[Deleted member 2254]

It's got style, albeit that slow-mo is so overused by now. Keeping an eye on this.

Looks miles better than Guy RItchie's attempt.

Though that's not saying much...

Just let me watch the Green Knight

Can't be worse than the Guy Ritchie Arthur flick, right?

 

[mjc]

Looks like a solid cast at least, I'll check it out.

 

[Sunfyre]

confused Saber Arturia noises

 

[Indy in the Fridge]

Frank Miller saw what Zack Snyder did with slow motion in '300' and he has never let it go.

Same. Frank Miller is a hard pass.

 

[Smoolio]

Was that Floki as Merlin? In for that at the very least.

 

[ZiZ]

Yeah, fuck Frank Miller.

Shit I'll watch it. I like swords and stuffs.

 

[Ramala]

Pass. Not supporting that piece of shit in anyway...

Remind me again what Miller did?

 

[Metroidvania]

I'm...a bit confused - maybe it's the video, but it looks like the person pulling out the sword has mustache stubble...

...So Arthur dies/drowns mid-pulling-out of Excalibur, and instead Nimue picks up the sword?

[Soundscream]

King Arthur, Robin Hood & the Three Musketeers are properties that need 20 years out of the public eye, before trying them again.

 

[Disco]

i'll give it a shot if i like what i read in the reviews and impressions.

 

[Jag]

Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

 

[Chaotic-Strike]

When Public Domain goes wrong.

There's so much better characters to build a show around versus the millionth take on a legend that is long past worn out.

 

[Koukalaka]

Frank Miller is a big ol' red flag, but I'll wait and see how this turns out.

 

[Finaika]

A girl?!

 

[antispin]

Looks bad

 

[Sanjuro]

Considering it's Miller, I would have figured a whore would pick up the sword.
