I love how everybody here keeps commenting: "OMG it's Robert Baratheon!" but when I first started watching Game of Thrones, my first reaction was, "Holy fuck, it's Roland!"
Hahaha I live in Gelderland (part of the Netherlands "Holland") I always love singing this song whenever my little brother (he's blond too) is playing a game. Too bad not everyone understands the origin...
I love it when Chaucer made them pay up one coin at a time. But to show he was a sport he gave them a coin back and said "Don't look too sad, here have a drink on me.".
This cast man, Health Ledger, Alan Tuyduk, Mark Addy, Rufus Sewell, James Purefoy, and Shannyn Sossamon. I don't know the blacksmith lady off the top of my head but she also plays Lydia in "Breaking Bad". 10/10 casting for a 10/10 flick.
I like to think even after filming was done for the day, these 4 would wander around the Prague nightlife finding Frenchmen to insult and yelling about Sir Ulrich.
'English legs are unsteady on French soil.' Ironic given that the English had already pasted the Frogs at Crecy and the reason Adamar wasn't there is because he was part of the army pasting them at the Battle of Poitiers...
speaking as someone that works on recording sets, most of the time is very stressful, may movie sets can have a very heavy schedule, but there are times, when the whole set is just having fun doing their job, and I can notice that with this scene. It feels like it.
they got the French and English relationship perfectly in this sence 🤣 only we are aloud to bully the French is England anyone else u face us both we love them really its just frendly banter
Bar scene: "He won't loose, not with the princess here watching him" Tournament scene: "What are you doing?!" "Loosing" "I have to loose to prove my love for her" "I'm gonna loose everything!!!!" "That's why it's called gambling" Lol....
Me and my first D&D group did the chant (ish) when we were cheering on our DM when he went to Smash tournament. Such an insignificant thing, but us chanting "He's Tall, He's Tan, He plays Samus Aran, Nikolas, Nikolas!" From the bean bag zone at the back of the foyer was apparently so side splitting funny to him he almost lost in his first round. He placed 19th of 42, so, yknow, he didn't do too bad. I like to think we boosted his confidence a bit. Edit- For Context, Nik is tall but pale as fuck, but he had a really bad suntan from a holiday he'd been on to Australia a week before. It looked really, really weird. He also only picked Samus in the first round, but our party Bard, a bloke named Ross, was an actual musician and we had been talking about this film on the ride over. So he just started chanting that, and we all joined in. Gave the crowd a decent chuckle, and it threw Nik into hysterics. He got by that round on luck, clipped Ross's ear, and had a good laugh with us while he waited for his next round. Ross couldn't think of a decent rhyme for Kirby on the next round, so the joke died there.
These guys are great trolls, they got an even money bet against a single guy vs. an entire tournament _with multiple champions._ With fatigue and small injuries added in the odds must be heavily in their favor(60%+) regardless of how good someone is at jousting.
I have seen this film 30 times. I used to wonder where it came from, and people often asked me that question. Now I know, to some extent. It did not appear by magic. Watch, "Dangerous Beauty", and read "Morality Play" (Barry Unsworth). Helgeland certainly did both of these before 2001.
sonicfreak04 it has contemporary ideas set in the medieval times but I just like how much it pulls from old knight stories and legends The fact that Paul Bettanys character is the guy who wrote "The Canterbury Tale" should set what this movie is about
When they sing Gelderland over and over near the end, it sounds like a military marching song. Can someone comment the name of the original military song it seems to be based on? Thanks!
It's basically a fan chant being sung by football (soccer) fans all over the world, dissing the other team, based on the Sousa tune. It's what's making the moment so priceless, that they're acting like a bunch of football hooligans chanting for their club.
@@strangefruit42 normally the lyrics have been. Here we go here we go. Here we go.... And England enunciated with three syllables "eng-er-land"... I think in the days of Chas and Dave writing songs for football teams to perform on top of the pops In those days it may well have even been recorded
God I'm late to respond to this lol but Baratheons are basically half targaryen since, Orys baratheon the progenitor of the family is the bastard child of Aerion Targaryen. Plus those three brothers of baratheons grandmother is a targaryen, they have good claimancy for doing conquest of rights
I love how everybody here keeps commenting: "OMG it's Robert Baratheon!" but when I first started watching Game of Thrones, my first reaction was, "Holy fuck, it's Roland!"
+HOSER922 -Yep. Knight's Tale was where I first saw Mark Addy and it's how I remembered him before Thrones. He was great in Thrones too.
LOL same here.
same !! Also I knew him because of Full Monthy !
I think my reaction was "Heh... Roland became king. Good for him."
Yes!
"The Pope may be French , but JESUS is English" BEST line of the entire movie ! ! !
yessss
Jesus was mexican
He’s not going to lose, not with the princess in town.
Wasn’t Jesus born in the Middle East? I could have sworn the three wise men rode camels.
@@crimsonknight7011 let ‘em have he comeback
So has Europe been full of football hooligans for centuries, but they keep changing sports as the time goes by?
Exhausted Elox yes
yeah basically
No, that is just natural European behavior.
Search “Byzantines Blues Greens”
And in Roman times it was chariot races-
Hahaha I live in Gelderland (part of the Netherlands "Holland") I always love singing this song whenever my little brother (he's blond too) is playing a game. Too bad not everyone understands the origin...
Do you know the origin?
Thats funny, I live in Guilderland. A town west of Albany the capital of New York

@@JSokil 💖
Guelders also constituted part of Germany too
The Pope may be French but Jesus is English! LOL
lol
Showed this clip to a pastor friend of mine. He had a good laugh 😄
Jesus was mexican.
lol
Every time I watch this movie I feel like I want to have drinks with this gang. They'd make the best drinking buddies!
+Kitty Grimm epic aren't they
I think the same thing every time I watch this scene. XD
Chaucer was so great I ended up using his name for my Stronghold series profile name. Sir Chaucer. 😂
I love it when Chaucer made them pay up one coin at a time. But to show he was a sport he gave them a coin back and said "Don't look too sad, here have a drink on me.".
"He's quick! He's funny! He makes me lots of money! Lichtensteiiiiin! Lichtensteiiiiin!"
That time when The Joker, Robert Baratheon, Wash, JARVIS/Vision, and Lydia Rodarte-Quayle were all in the same movie.
And Obergruppenführer John Smith!
And the original V before Hugo Weaving took over.
The French guys are basically the same ones from Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Smithkakarot Yes now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!
Smithkakarot You were right (Agent) Smith. The French did seem more like they were ribbing them in a good natured way and not being dicks.
Yes. The normal average Frenchman
'I swear to God Quasimodo!' LOL
😂
How does he know that name? Victor Hugo wasn't even born yet
This cast man, Health Ledger, Alan Tuyduk, Mark Addy, Rufus Sewell, James Purefoy, and Shannyn Sossamon. I don't know the blacksmith lady off the top of my head but she also plays Lydia in "Breaking Bad". 10/10 casting for a 10/10 flick.
And that is how football chants were born
King Robert Baratheon, the early years.....
I just realised there’s rock music in the background haha legendary 😂
One of the best American films I've ever seen. They have some bad ones, but when they create good ones they really hit the nail on the head.
***** I think the writer, producer and director of the film, Brian Helgeland, an American from Rhode Island, would disagree with you.
MrStig691 ..Huh?
They used "we will rock you" are you fucking kidding me?
@@logic9436 In a medieval movie. Only this movie could pull that off
Bro literally all of the best movies come from Hollywood
I like to think even after filming was done for the day, these 4 would wander around the Prague nightlife finding Frenchmen to insult and yelling about Sir Ulrich.
Well some interviews came out for the 20th anniversary and that's basically exactly what happened :D
Hope you are all having fun and happy
That moment you realize Vision and the Joker worked together in a past life
An amazing scene from an amazing movie.. RIP Heath
Love Wat's stare after "I swear to God, Quasimodo!" ^^
God, love this scene! The song is great! Makes me laugh every time!
I think this quartet is probably the best part of the movie!!!
I barely realized that they have dive bar music in the background! 😂 This movie must have been so fun to make
I remember staying up all night when this movie first came on tv that I didn’t go to school in the morning
'English legs are unsteady on French soil.' Ironic given that the English had already pasted the Frogs at Crecy and the reason Adamar wasn't there is because he was part of the army pasting them at the Battle of Poitiers...
Not five minutes later
Crew: what are you doing?
William: Losing
"I don't understand."
"Neither do I."
Oh god, I'd rather you were blind.
@@Rockhound6165”We’re losing!”
”That’s why it’s called gambling.”
*“RAAAAA-“*
it really is a perfect movie, I love it more with each viewing
Can we talk about how he's posing as a non-English knight yet they are all admitting he's English here?
@Sutty The french guy says "An Englishman will not win this French tournament"- Surely the retort should be that's fine cos he's Dutch
One of my favorite scenes!
"He's blond, He's Pissed, He'll see you in the list! Liechtenstein! Liechtenstein!"
So this is King Robert before the rebellion
This scene must have been fun to shoot (almost every scene in this film looked fun to shoot tbh)

@@potestoniko You really had me worried in that first half, for real 😭
The Pope maybe French but Jesus is English and God is Irish so everyones happy.
God is Irish - that won't bite them in the arse later
@@PuppetierMaster oh I agree.
Except the Scottish, but that's normal.
@@DeepVoicedDude well Satan's Scottish
they got the French and English relationship perfectly in this sence
🤣
only we are aloud to bully the French is England anyone else u face us both we love them really its just frendly banter
When they said the pope was French they looked at Roland like “oh shit” 😂😂
The tune they're singing is The Stars and Stripes Forever by Sousa
Took me a good while to figure that out
IT'S COMING HOME
Big Bobby B showing how to honour the gods in style there.
so many great moments!
Roland: all I want is to go home.
aha isn't that Jorah's line????
The Joker, Robert Baratheon, Danger Boat and Vision walk into a bar.
"I'm about this fonging close mate!"
My ancestor Robert the Brown was one of the first jousting hooligans.
Love this scene
Freaking Alan Tudick
Gods he was strong then
love this scene!
Bar scene:
"He won't loose, not with the princess here watching him"
Tournament scene:
"What are you doing?!"
"Loosing" "I have to loose to prove my love for her"
"I'm gonna loose everything!!!!"
"That's why it's called gambling"
Lol....
How many times have you watched this film 😅 xx
@@rosebrown9265 I lost count Lol
I love how Kate is now part of the gang lol
Gelderland! Gelderland! Gelderland! Gelderland! Gelderland!
The bar gives peak larp vibes. 1am in the morning doing football chants at another table off our tits on mead. Good times
I would point out that Lichtenstein and Gelderland are two completely different places, but don't want to spoil everyone's fun.
Odd that they say "an English man will not win" when they think Ulrich is from Lichtenstein.
E's blond, e's pissed, e'll se you in the lists, Lichtenstein, Lichtenstein!
@@douglascampbell1972 But if he's from Lichtenstein, then how can he be English??

Funny how the movie was all about Will trying to become a knight, while his buddy here became the king of the seven realms

Did he just call that French guy Quasimodo? I'm pretty sure the Hunchback of Notre Damn wasn't written until several centuries later.
One of the many anachronisms in this film. They're deliberate.
They also have Chaucer quoting Shakespeare.
They play We Will Rock You at the beginning of the movie and this is what concerns you?

even though this movie is anachronistic as hell, its still very entertaining
