And? Nothing can top saving private Ryan dday landing scene. Just cause Saving private Ryan did it better doesn't mean it's a original idea for a amphibious assault. Troy did the same thing.
@@NordicJarl27 completely missed the point, blockhead. These movies added scenes like this irrespective of historical accuracy or narrative logic to copy on SPR’s spectacle
@@jamesdc9595 First jerkwad, keep it civil. Second your point can be interpret to saying basically its copying SPR. If that's not what your saying then, say so instead of calling me a blockhead and condescending. This movie and others including SPR are historical fiction which means it's in a historical setting but not true at all story. And as i said its not copying SPR besides the boats with ramps. But as i said its a historical fiction. But if you believe that you might aswell say SPR is copying The Longest Day. But its a movie It's for our entertainment. Just stick to documentaries if it upsets you. Don't really have to watch it if you don't like. Everyone has their own opinion on things and we shouldn't force others to see our point of view. To each their own. There's no changing your mind or mine. I said what I said and that's it. You said what you said and now let it lie.
I was waiting for a flurry of arrows to start hitting soldiers the moment the bow ramp dropped which would force the others to go over the side, drowning some.
"I want to make a WWII movie!" "Sorry Scott, but WWII movies aren't going hot right now, Medieval settings are. We're giving you the script of a Robin Hood movie." ".. I'll make it into a WWII movie." "What was that?" "Nothing."
The English didn't want to give France even the ability to dream of invading England so they destroyed the French fleet rather than risk the French deciding the Germans were cool all of a sudden in 1940.
Ooh, does he become King in the end? I mean, why not? The rest of it is ahistorical nonsense which directly contradicts both the detail and the essence of the legend.
I used the thumbnail in history class and got away withit for a good 5 minute's before the teacher who was sat at the back of the class. Starts moving his glasses and says "what? Wait a minute. Those arent radios! They're spears and that horse!! No horse was on the beach what the hell is this" 😂😂 It was hilarious
Oh god no, no, no, no, no. The Normans used ships similar to those of the Vikings (since they were basically French-ified Vikings). Thus us just unbelievably silly.
Ridley Scott is a hack. Twisting historical settings to make it look “cooler” is an insult to the people who actually lived at the time. Not to mention the millions of people he has essentially lied to. saying that it’s “historical fiction” isn’t an excuse because his movies are barely historical. Also who are films like this made for, they aren’t for history fans because they aren’t historical, they have no educational value, the only people that I can see watching these films are the average plebs who know nothing about history but want to see a crazy set piece or big explosion, but at that point why not just go and watch the latest MARVEL slop instead.
I like Russel Crowe a lot and I love Robin Hood, and yet I have somehow never gotten around to watching this.... But my favourite Robin Hood will always be Michael Praed from the BBC series.
That's the only historical thing, although it happened more during the 14th and 15th century. Longbowmen were often like dragoons, riding to the battle and then dismounting to fight on foot.
This is like the medieval d-day but in ww2 d-day it was more risky and brutal for the Americans and the Canadians and the brits to invade it but they managed to
Why did Robin need to go to the edge of the cliff just to tell the archers to stand in line before going back to the beach? Why was he okay with Marion bringing child soldiers? I have so many questions
@@odenat3701 yet it wasn't an amphibious assault, they established a landing site, without even encountering the sultanate armies and then laid siege from the land.
@@theamorphousflatsch2699 when they attacked damietta tower at the middle of the nile, crusader ships were used as platforms and the soldiers used the ladders to reach the top of the walls. This must be a crazy sight.
My lord this really stretches my sense of disbelief. I mean, if you're going to make a movie set historically, you're appealing to history fans. Why butcher it so thoroughly when you can make a movie that respects history?
There were no france nor england at that time as we understand them today. Families were running the things and English&french kings were different families although they were speaking french. South west france also was English king's domain and each time one of the both king dies, English king was going to France and pay hommage to French king for plantegenet lands inside france by falling on his knees in front of him.
@@odenat3701 Ya there was no France and England but a King of France and England you are funny you just don't want to admit you run by France for 300 yrs lol
Ridley Scott is actually fking clueless falling ramps and snipers in Napoleon, someone needs to ask him to pick up an actual history book instead of some fantasy
Philippe II never invaded England though he beat the shit out of England and HRE, took lots of land from King of England on continent. His son Louis VIII did the invasion with the support of most of English barons, and he took half of the England, became Louis I of England for a while. this movie clip has ZERO history facts.

I can't believe French rowed those LANDING CRAFTS all the way from France.
...all you need are some willing migrants....
😂😂😂😂😂 classic comnent@@markcairns9574
must have been Rugby Union Forwards , they have some big lads in the scrum does France.
French strong when want
LOL, landing craft!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! are they taking the piss or what? LOL
The falling ramp boats are ridiculous. This just shows how willing is Ridley Scott to twist history when he feels like.
That’s because it’s a movie, not a documentary.
My guy he makes historical fiction. Gladiator didn't happen like that either they didn't give Spaniards control of legions
@@teddypicker8799 what? Oliver reed didn’t actually train gladiators? 🤷♂️
@@teddypicker8799 Trajan, Hadrian and Marcus Aurelius were Spanish origin Emperors. So a Spanish general is quite historical.

D-day in the 1500s
1200s...
With the invading side’s failure though😊
I think its not 16th century, They should already had sailing ship such frigates, corvettes and cannons
Also it was D-Day from France (not to France)
@@hopefulperson9622 In real life the French took London though
I was half expecting German machineguns when the landing craft dropped its ramp.

LMAO those fucking landing craft are SOOO d-day inspired
D-day wouldn't happen until several hundred years later, so clearly the D-day landing craft were inspired from these mideval landing craft.
@@Miniminer1999 didn’t Ridley Scott use actual LCIs for this scene?
@@geigertec5921 Your right, even down to the motorized drop gate, and motor in the rear of the boats

Canada and America: Mom and Dad are fighting yet again
it looks like d-day boats
Because it's a reused prop from Saving Private Ryan
It’s like D-Day in reverse. During the Middle Ages.
I like how at 2:08 one dude randomly fell on the steep acting like he's dead or something when the fight is not started yet
The warriors are exhausted after rowing the boat before the battle 😂
Saving Private Robin
Landing craft lol!
"I want to make a WWII movie!"
"Sorry Scott, but WWII movies aren't going hot right now, Medieval settings are. We're giving you the script of a Robin Hood movie."
".. I'll make it into a WWII movie."
"What was that?"
"Nothing."
The French sensed the English from the smell of elderberries.
This!
I fart in your general direction.
And farted in their general direction
From the thumbnail I thought it was some WW2 shit, so I was like "the French didnt invade England??"
The English didn't want to give France even the ability to dream of invading England so they destroyed the French fleet rather than risk the French deciding the Germans were cool all of a sudden in 1940.
Lol shit I didn't know they had Higgins Boats back in medieval Europe
That's literally the dumbest place to land your army right underneath a cliff
Saving Private Ryan mods.
this movie is just ridiculous. like Ridley Scott
Hi everyone! What grade (out of 10) would you give this video?
Russell don't need the ambiance of an arena for his voice to ring
That was atrocious to watch at the theater, I laugh out loud so hard that other people looked me so seriously.
D-day mix with Troy
Ooh, does he become King in the end? I mean, why not? The rest of it is ahistorical nonsense which directly contradicts both the detail and the essence of the legend.

It was hilarious
Comical "landing craft". Next ridley film they'll be using ro-ro ferries. With diesel engines.😅
The Frech love their heavy mounted knight way too much to not have them here to charge in at once
why werent there any archers over the cliffs like the krauts are the normandy
Hey guys what's the worst beach we could land on.
The king was like, Yh I don’t know what to do but they are French ⚔️
"We got saving private ryan at home".
Reminds me of the Allied invasion of occupied France. Those landing ships look exactly like the ones the U.S. used!
The scene in the valley at the beginning was filmed in Derbyshire
In reality Louis 'The Lion' was called in England by the barons to be crowned, which he actually was proclaimed in London in 1216.
The Medieval Higgins boat
Oh god no, no, no, no, no. The Normans used ships similar to those of the Vikings (since they were basically French-ified Vikings). Thus us just unbelievably silly.
Movie name

Stop the boats

the producers messed up those landing crafts are to modern for that time era
Ridleyed with inaccuracies.
Normandie is invading.
Archers riding horses?
Mounted archers were a thing,although they would dismount before action.
That's the only historical thing, although it happened more during the 14th and 15th century. Longbowmen were often like dragoons, riding to the battle and then dismounting to fight on foot.
I doubt they had landing craft back then

Saving peasant Ryan
The film takes place in the year of 1199 A. D.
They made a wooden higgens boat. I can't watch anymore of this movie.
No one cares.
@@valdie91285 said your mom when she didn't swallow you
What's the name of the movie?
I'm surprised the british beach is not littered with machine bow bunkers.
What a BS regardings ramps. Not sure but I think these are LCVP
I don't think they could have picked a worse beach. Deal would have been a far better choice. And what are those ww2 landing craft?
funny how the middle ages seems WAY behind the Roman age lol
At my signal, unleash hell!
Overlord 1244
There’s barely any French there. A single line of soldiers to hold of a cavalry charge.
This entire scene is tiny bit ridiculous, no medieval army would genuinely attempt an amphibious assault
Crusaders did it at the fifth crusade. Check the attack on Damietta at Egypt.

Hello 👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
R.S was a good director long time ago.. what happened ?
Ridley Scott is actually fking clueless falling ramps and snipers in Napoleon, someone needs to ask him to pick up an actual history book instead of some fantasy
Is there any historical evidence of flat front “landing craft with drop down front ramps” from this time period or is this just utter nonsense?
The lighting in Ridley Scott's movies is terrible.
thanks for the info;. i always thought/wondered why it was a little dark;.
Appalling
The French invaded Pembrokeshire not England
Philippe II never invaded England though he beat the shit out of England and HRE, took lots of land from King of England on continent. His son Louis VIII did the invasion with the support of most of English barons, and he took half of the England, became Louis I of England for a while. this movie clip has ZERO history facts.
