This royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle, This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars, This other Eden, demi-paradise, This fortress built by Nature for herself Against infection and the hand of war, This happy breed of men, this little world, This precious stone set in the silver sea, Which serves it in the office of a wall Or as a moat defensive to a house, Against the envy of less happier lands,-- This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England. ~~William Shakespeare, Richard III

New Movie: Ironclad

I came across this trailer today. It is a movie, scheduled for release this year, about the rebellion against King John that lead up to Magna Carta.

The preview looks good...guess I'll have to wait and see if there is any substance to it.

  2. Oooh, that looks like a really good movie. It's been a long time since I visited that specific topic of history, so it'll be a good refresher.

  3. Looks good to see. You shoukd see Dark Relic that was on SyFi about the Templars. Recommend you read the books The Last Boleyn, Plane Jane, and As High As The Heavens
