what movie/s does the skyrim concept remind you of

:wink_smile:

hello all,
wow we're closer to that fabled date 11- 11 -11 ; SKYRIM, it twill be heaven { or very close to it }. :angel:

i would like to know what movie or movies instantly POPS into your mind when you read-up :read:
or think of skyrim?
for me it's like a distant melody in the back of my mind commingled with images and the haunting scores
of a couple of movies.

the 1st is my favourite, "Willow". directed by Ron Howard { no, not what some of you are thinking :no: } in the
mid-80s, around 86 i think. this movie had a fantastic atmosphere and equally fantastic score. it was epic and i'll
have another look at it the night before skyrim come into my life :spotted owl: .

2ndly, "legend" with tom cruise. this film { i think } doesn't have much of a following these dayz. however, i'm
a major fan of it. def when i was roaming the forests in oblivion i was reminded of this film. the dark lord, mysterious
and mythical forest and such.

3urdly { ! } of course, its the "lord of the ring" trilogy no dobt for obvious reasons :ermm: :wavey:

so that's me, bye the way i'm no movie buff so if you've anything to add then do so.

think sound and visual :

what is the distant melody in your mind that rings when you think of the coming of skyrim?


discuss if it interests you and thanks for checking the thread out :wink_smile: ely.

Yeah, definitely Conan. The Arnold ones.

My first character is actually gonna be a spin off of the Conan character, just with the ability to use magic.

Happens to us all, http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/70/Tori_Spelling.jpg that is.

This place is addictive. ^__^

Ha! Holy Grail is fantastic! That one never gets old. :)
Cave of the Golden Rose.
I'll have to check that one out now.

Of Conan: There's actually an unused ThulsaDoom "Thulsa Doom" [NPC_:0002576B] in Oblivion.ESM, so I'm sure Conan is part of Beth's TES motif inspiration.

It's not a game. It's a book (first of a series) and a television series.

The 13th Warrior and Beowulf come to mind. It seems like no one like The 13th Warrior but I think it's a great viking movie.

It's all one word. I was making a Tori Spelling joke. 'Misspelling' is, evidently, one of the most commonly misspelled words, so it lives up to its name unlike 'phonetic'. :laugh:
