When I first heard of director Paul W.S. Anderson’s (Resident Evil: Afterlife) big-screen re-imagining of French author Alexandre Dumas’ beloved adventure novel “The Three Musketeers,” I mistakenly figured it would be an action film and not Clatto material.
Well, imagine my surprise when I peeped Summit Entertainment’s trailer for the new Anderson 3-D re-do and discovered that our 17th century heroes Athos, Porthos, and Aramis lived during a time of sophisticated gadgetry and flying buccaneer ships!
Check it out:
Really … it just goes to show that our school system in the U.S. blows. I can only wonder what other works of literature were tampered with by our educators. If I find out that Chaucer’s “Canterbury Tales” actually included a rogue band of illegal street racers on light-cycles, I’m gonna be pissed.
The Three Musketeers stars Matthew Macfadyen (Athos), Ray Stevenson (Porthos), Luke Evans (Aramis), Logan Lerman (D’Artagnan), Christoph Waltz (Cardinal Richelieu), Orlando Bloom (Duke of Buckingham), Juno Temple (Queen Anne) and Milla Jovovich (M’lady De Winter).
The film swings into theaters on Oct. 14.
i hope you’re talking about how the 3 musketeers script should have been written compared to how every movie version of the epic tale has been pretty much trash and not that the dumas classic should have been written differently … can’t really tell from your little post but the dumas stories are still a fantastic ad exciting read …
every movie tho has gone off on its own tangent and ended up as the typical hollywood trash
