Braveheart isn’t real? I’ve got that movie memorized as true history. Are you sayin Jollywood got to me again? Darn, I wish they wouldn’t do that. It’s like “300” that muslims are complaining about. Nobody knows the exact history of the Spartans so the movie itself is just a movie. I though very well done.

I waited a long time for CleanFlix to come out with a copy for me. Being the history nut that I am, I was thoroughly disappointed. Their portrayal of Edward I was disgusting. There were few more gallant figures in English history. Of course, he was known as the “Hammer of the Scots” for a reason. Wallace was a minor figure, hung with 26+ other Scots after Sterling and four years before the French princess ever made her first trip to England. There were countless other inaccuracies in their military organization and political motives. The only thing they got right was Edward II was a flamer. Of course, his son, “Saint Edward” was another great figure. Anyway, yes, they got you on that one. Although I think you were perhaps being sarcastic. Which, if that is the case, my apologies for sermonizing.
