    I should also point out Beowulf up to the death of Grendel is pretty faithful to the myth.

    Terry Jones has already come up so need not come up again now that I discovered another half truth "documentary" by him.

    Deadliest warrior uses anachronism, unrealistic settings and ahistorical foundations as it's base so has to be given mention, it might as well pit those Spartans lead by Megas Alexandros against a herd of dinosaurs.

    Time Commanders is surprisingly good, although you have to remember before you watch that the Rome Total War Engine determined 10/11 battles before they start, sometimes in favor of the winner, sometimes in favor of a loser who had a vastly superior force.

    Such a movie would make hundreds of millions. *Facepalms*

    Technically that would be some sort of sci-fi/fantasy so I don't think that has any historical basis. Could be cool.
    Fighting isn't about winning, it's about depriving your enemy of all options except to lose.
