Ridley Scott has totally erased any goodwill he earned with "Gladiator" and "Black Hawk Down".

Making Saladin into some "noble statesman of yore" instead of the Butcher of Jerusalem is beyond the pale.

I'm in agreement...I'll not watch anything he's involved in now. What a jerkoff he is. These guys make lots of money...then these jerks show true colors....I've blacklisted him....

Perhaps you should complain to the authors of the Song of Roland or legends of Charlemagne in which Saladin was portrayed as a worthy opponent, etc. That's the fact, Jack
