Scratch that estimate! $14 million opening is going to make this one of the infamous all-time movie disasters.

I wonder if they'll do that with Bruce Jenner when they reissue Can't Stop The Music.

How about putting a picture of "Caitlyn" on a new poster of "They Call Me Bruce?" :)

3.5/10

aka Public Domain: The Movie. Gloomy, poorly-structured, and with precious little of Guy Ritchie's usual visual and editorial snap (aside from a brief "boyhood to manhood" montage in the Snatch style), This one plants Excalibur square in the heart of the Arthurian Legends as any sort of grist for cinematic adaptations. Seriously...we've SEEN it, it's DONE. Humorless, visually-drab and with visual effects that would have looked state-of-the-art circa 1998, Legend Of The Sword is the latest second-week-of-May stinkbomb from Warner Bros., and you have to wonder why anyone involved wasted a year or so of their lives in rehashing this source material for the umpteenth time.
