      It’s almost a meme how this is true, they shoulda shown it in the movie tho, I think the battle was horns of hattin, CK2 has a theme song named after it

      Hackney didn’t include it tho, it was apparently very kino

    Look at the number of extras in costume and horses in your pic, and then consider how much that would cost modern hollywood, and then consider how much a studio would want to do that when they can make another movie about spider man punching the green glublin starring their c-listers who can only get roles in take-it-in-the-ass movies.

      Always loved 3rd crusade era get up. not full dumpy greathelms yet, but starting to get full face plates and fully mailed.
      could be a great chessgame like story between lionhart and Saladin.
      More direct Baldwin the leper story could be kino too.

      sad. Hopefully, maybe, napoleon will change this. Though then again, I dont know that many creators nowadays that I think are competent enough to have common sense.

    budget most likely.
    creating the Outreamer very costly. Lots of filming in Israel and therefore that government will rip off the studio in location fees. Then youve got costumes.
    >hundreds of years
    it was on a constant contraction after 50 years. Richard I made Saladin kneel with respect and calm down. Kingdom of Acre only carried on because the muslims were getting their shit pushed in by mongols

    Crusaders have to be the bad guys because they are literally nazis which is at odds with what the audience for such a show actually wants

              Sorry I briefly skimmed Wikipedia and it's very clear this was a reprisal action so as usual Christians were at fault ultimately

              Imagine being 70,000 strong and just being meekly being executed without a fight. Embarrassing.

    Any historical movie is going to be super expensive, and there's no reason to think the room temperature IQ audiences of the modern world will go to see them, even if they are good which is unlikely.

    The best you can hope for is low budget feminist schlock like the recent movies Ridley Scott shat out.

      They did a Hussite flick a year or two ago. The battle wagons only got a minute of screen time at the very end. I think Michael Caine was in it.

        The reason is a truthful, well-made Crusades movie would be a cultural blow they couldn't handle. Remember the reaction to Mel Gibson's Passion of the Christ?

    1st and 2nd crusade were modest, 3rd crusade the big famous one, ones after that were huge embarrassment and crusades within european soil usually don't make very bombastic historical films. You could make a crusade drama film about Cathars being massacred I guess.
