Honestly, I think if he loves to do this type of movie, he should continue to do so, but I hope for his sake he can beat the heartthrob image icon thing that has been bestowed upoin him by so many ridiculous teenage girls. He needs to play more of a bad ass soon.
Anyways, my main concern about this movie is how it is going to portray the crusades. The crusades were a horrible travesty and ugly scar on the history of europe. It's so called "accomplishments" should be anything but glorified. The crusades were a campaign of massacres across europe against those refusing to follow the christian doctrine or even the "correct" christian doctrine as deemed appropriate by the roman catholic church... for those of you who don't know. A 'campaign of massacres' is putting it lightly.
Anyways, I am waiting to see how this all plays out in the eyes of the director and all that jazz.
