Yes, I did a google and unearthed all sorts of facts concerning the Arthurian legend etc. Thoroughly enjoyable movie too.

I haven't seen much in the way of movies, although my old neighbors that we stayed with for a couple of days showed my kids some movie Roger Rabbit movie since we were going to Disney and a Mario Brothers movie. I got to see a bit of a movie that one of the people we were staying with is making and then when we went to Universal Studios we saw lots of sets as well as some that they were currently filming in. The only two that I remember were being filmed were CSI Las Vegas and Despartate Housewives. Oh, and I got pics of the War of the Worlds plane crash set.

On the Universal tour you see places where they have filmed scenes supposedly in Europe or on the Atlantic Ocean, all over the world. Kinda funny, but it works.

I still have to get the Universal pics uploaded, but I am working on that. I will be posting some trip pics today though.

I'm watching "The Sting" right now! Wow! I forgot how much I loved this movie. As a kid I loved playing "Rag" on the piano.

My fave was to play was "The Entertainer" (theme music) and it's soo nice seeing this.

"Ya Fallah?"
