Well you can try flipping the pages of a manuscript bible very fast but the result will not be impressive. Also the museum guards will be mad at you.

I don't think the movie was dubbed in English.
 Personally i prefer to watch every movie in original language, may it be Arab, Finnish, English, Japanese etc...   obviously with subtitles  :wink:

One of my favorite movies is "The Name of the Rose". "King Arthur" was not bad. First season of recent TV show "Merlin" had some awesome sword fights. Some other ones:

The Excalibur
First Knight
The 13th Warrior
Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves 
Willow
DragonHeart
Kingdom of Heaven
The Man in the Iron Mask
Black Death
Braveheart
Master and Commander

close to genre:
Lord of the Rings
Conan
Highlander
Scorpion King
Curse of the Ring
