Perceval returns Excalibur to the lake

[johndub]

My favourite scene in the film. Just iconic

[HBLADY]

This is a great scene and thanks for leaving in the original music.

[davecorriveau]

"One day, a king will come. And the sword will rise again."

Such a powerful and hopeful line.

[Nondyan]

Everytime. Brings me to tears everytime.

[williamdemarco]

One of the most memorable movies I have ever watched. Everyone involved should be proud.

[hurdygurdyguy]

At 1:52, the catch and at1:57 the pause and then down into the lake coupled with the music was editing genius!! It never ceases to thrill me!

[frobbit]

"The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest, shimmering sameite, held aloft Excalibur, from the bosom of the water, signifyiing by divine providence, that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur, THAT is why I am your King!

Listen. Strange women, lying in ponds, distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony!

Be quiet!

Look. You can't expect to weild supreme executive power, just because some watery tart threw a sword at you!

SHUT UP!!!

If I went around saying I was an Emperor, because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

SHUT UP, WILL YOU SHUT UP!!!

Oh now we see the violence inherent in the system...."

I love Excalibur, the finest mythic story ever put to film, but Monty Python makes me chuckle silently during this movie sometimes.

[MYcoloradoplateau]

A simply beautiful scene in a beautiful movie.

[kintarricrawford]

MADE ME WANT TO BOW DOWN RESPECTFULLY !🙅🏾‍♂️🗡🙅🏾‍♂️ SUCH AN ICONIC SWORD!

[quattordicimontenapoleone]

Perceval's look of "oh ok, that makes sense".

[ered]

Despite the greatness of this entire story, I stand by my principle of never bargaining with the fae.

[ThexBorg]

Geez, I remember that scene decades ago in the cinema. Always remember the fuzzy filters they used in the film to make it all shiny.

[Eldarion]

Awesome movies like these are simply not made anymore.

[pluribustah]

Wagner could make paint drying interesting...

[rogerdetillion]

So this is how Gargoyles got the ideal for the Avalon arc

[marksellers]

Watery tarts passing out swords is no basis for a government...

[nialloneill]

The Sword is about to be drawn once again...a New King, a New Kingdom...a time of Peace and Hope. Strength and Blessings too all who pray for this time that comes after the terrifying period called the Apocalypse. Amen!

[lescorlett]

I thought it was Gawaine who took the sword back?

[wesleyledbetter]

I always wanted to know in Wales what was the real King Arthur like ??..the day he die had to be a crazy day when he died.. in real life..

[PaulSinghSelhi-VFX-TUTORIALS]

Bedivere..not Perceval. How could they make such an error ?
